Good Morning Sunshine! You Can Do All Things Through Christ!

Philippians 4:13 ~ “For I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

I want to encourage you to speak the Word of God to your children and grandchildren. I started sending my granddaughter the devotional last year and she reads it every day. On Wednesday I was a little late sending it to her and she texted me wanted to know where it was, she was asking for the Word! When we train them and show them how important the Word of God is to us, it transfer to them too! I asked her what her favorite scripture is and she wrote the devotional that you are reading today. May it bless you like it blessed me!

What does Philippians 4:13 really mean? We know the surface of it, but what is it underneath?

Philippians 4:13 to me means when your at your lowest point God will be there He is not going to leave you there and say she/he can deal with it alone. He is going pick you up piece by piece and love you more than ever. He will provide the strength you think is fleeing.

There are going be times in your life where you want to give up because something is to hard. Times where you feel like you can’t do it and there is no end in sight. God will always provide, so in those moments don’t give up! Hard doesn’t mean you can’t overcome it!

For God knows your strength before any battle so stay the course. I want you to push through all of those negative thoughts and replace them with Philippians 4:13, get a “I Can” in your spirit!

Don’t give in to the thoughts that no one is there, no one can see you hurting, no one sees you going through it, because God sees. You might say “why isn’t he doing anything about it , why isn’t he answering my prayers?” He is doing something but you have to trust His timing!

 You can’t give up on Him and stop praying, or stop reading your bible, or stop worshiping Him because it takes time. If He is telling you to wait then listen, because He has a plan for you. God gives his strongest warriors the toughest battles. 

Prayer:
Dear Lord, I pray for anyone who wants to give up. I pray for anyone who is struggling, who is in pain and sees no way out. I pray that they seek you and find peace in you and remember Philippians 4:13. I pray they push through all of those negative thoughts in Jesus Christ Name. Amen!
