Good Morning Sunshine! God’s Mercies Are Brand New Today!

Lamentations 3:22-23 (ESV) ~ “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.”

God’s Mercies are new every morning and each day has enough Mercy in it for that day! There is something deeply comforting about waking up each morning and knowing that God’s Mercy is brand new. Yesterday’s mistakes, shortcomings, and failures do not disqualify you from His love for you today.

His mercy isn’t something you earn; it is a gift freely given to you because of His unwavering love for you. When you stumble, God’s mercy lifts up! When you feel unworthy, His Grace is there to covers you! The beauty of His Mercy is that it meets you exactly where you are, but it never leaves you unchanged! You are changed because of and by the Mercy of God!

Consider the life of King David, a man after God’s own heart who also made grave mistakes, adultery, deception, even murder. Yet, in Psalm 51, David cries out, “Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions.” God’s response to David wasn’t condemnation but forgiveness and restoration. This same mercy is available to you today. No sin is too great, no heart too broken, that God’s mercy cannot heal and restore!

Today, think about your life, has God shown you mercy to you? Do you remember His promises? How often have you sinned, disobeyed God, forgot about His Word and went your own way? And yet, in spite of this, God still showed His Mercy towards you, He didn’t give you what you deserved, He had Mercy on you! Now, it’s your turn to have mercy, yes, they failed, and fell short, but you have too, the Word of God says, “all have come short”, (Romans 3:23) but God still kept you, He sustained, protected, and blessed you!

Living in the Mercy of God calls you not just to receive His grace but to extend it to others. Jesus reminds us in Matthew 5:7, “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.” As recipients of such divine compassion, we are invited to reflect that mercy in our relationships. Whether it’s forgiving a friend, showing patience with a family member, or extending grace to a stranger, you are to mirroring God’s heart when act mercifully. In doing so, you not only draw closer to God, but you also become a vessel of His Grace and Mercy in a world that desperately needs it!

Remember that God loves you in spite of you, and you can depend on Him at all times! Put and keep your trust in the only One that can give you Grace and Mercy! Today, and every day you need to Praise Him and Thank Him for His Mercy, after all His Mercy endures forever and ever. Trust Him, surrender your life to Him and commit your ways to lifetime of serving Him, it’s for your good and His Glory! Please don’t take God and His Grace and Mercy for granted! Have you shown mercy to anybody?

Let’s Pray:
Thank You Father! Father, I come before You with a heart full of gratitude for Your endless Mercy towards me. Thank You for loving me in my imperfections, for seeing beyond my mistakes, and for offering me the Grace that I could never earn. Your Word says Your mercies are new every morning, and I hold onto that promise today. No matter what I faced yesterday, whether it was failure, regret, or pain, I trust that today, You have given me a fresh start. Father, I confess my sins and shortcomings to You, for You are the only One that can forgive me and cleanse me. Help me to walk in the freedom that Your Mercy provides. Remind me that I am not defined by my past but by Your love and Grace. Father teach me to see myself through Your eyes, as redeemed, restored, and beloved. Father, I am asking You to please cultivate a merciful heart within me, to extend grace to those who have hurt me, to forgive as I have been forgiven, and to show compassion to those who are struggling. Father, let me be a reflection of Your Mercy in every interaction that I partake in today. May my life testify to the goodness of a God who never gives up on His children. Thank You for Your unfailing love, Lord. I surrender my heart to You today and every day. In Jesus Christ Name. Amen!

Good Morning Sunshine! God Has Graced You For This Season!

2 Corinthians 12:9 – “But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.”

Life has a way of testing you and taking you to limits that seem beyond your scope of reach! But right now, as you embark on this journey, I want you to that you are right where God wants you! Yes, the path ahead is filled with steep hills, unexpected turns, and moments where the road seems to disappear altogether and every step feels heavier than the last, and it seems like exhaustion is threatening to pull you under. 

But it’s in these very moments of weakness that God’s Grace shines the brightest. When Paul wrote these words, he was going through, but he knew who he was connected to, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness,” he’s reminding you that you don’t have to rely on your own strength. When you move out of the war, God steps in, meeting you right where you are, and His Power becomes your source of strength when you need it the most! 

But even in those moments when you think your strength has run out, you have something deeper on the inside of you that is about to rise up, Resilience! Resilience isn’t about having the power to breeze through every challenge without stumbling. It’s about taking the next step, even when you feel like you can’t, for this is the moment you come to the intersection of resilience and grace, and every path turns into to Grace for you! 

As you continue walking, do you notice the small signs of hope along the way, a door that opens where you least expected, help that comes from a place you never imagined, and peace finds that its way into your heart, even when the things that you needed to change have not changed, and you are able to keep it moving anyway! This is what happens when your resilience meets God’s Grace!

You Become Resilient in the Face of Trials: Resilience isn’t about never feeling tired or discouraged; it’s about rising again after you have fallen. Proverbs 24:16 tells us, “For though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again, but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes.” Your faith doesn’t shield you from hardship, but it gives you the power to bounce back, knowing that God is right there with you, lifting you up each time you falter. When life knocks you down, God’s grace is the cushion that softens the blow and the hand that helps you stand again! 

You Become Responsible in Your Faith Walk: While God’s grace covers you, you are called to be responsible stewards of that grace. Galatians 6:9 encourages us, “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” Being responsible means showing up even when it’s hard, praying when you don’t feel like it, loving when it’s difficult, and serving when it’s inconvenient. God’s Grace empowers you, but your faithfulness keeps you aligned with His purpose! 

You Become Resolute in Your Commitment: To be resolute means to be unwavering, steadfast, and firm in your commitment to God. James 1:12 reminds us, “Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.” Life will test your faith, but God calls you to stand firm, trusting that He is working everything out for your good, even when you can’t see it! 

You Become Restored by His Grace: No matter how broken you may feel, God’s grace has the power to restore you. Psalm 23:3 says, “He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.” Restoration doesn’t mean life goes back to the way it was before. It means God takes the broken pieces and creates something new, something beautiful. His grace not only heals your wounds but transforms you, giving you new strength, new purpose, and new hope! 

You Are Able To Rest in Jesus Amid Life’s Storms: Resting in Jesus doesn’t mean escaping life’s challenges; it means finding peace in the midst of them! Resting in Him means letting go of the need to control everything and trusting that He is already at work on your behalf. It’s in His Presence that your anxieties quiet down, your heart is renewed, and your mind finds clarity. Even in the middle of the storm, you can experience a calm that only comes from knowing He holds your future. When you choose to rest in Jesus, you are not giving up; you are surrendering it all, allowing His strength to sustain you and His peace to guard your heart! 

So, you see, you showed up with your weakness, your worries, and your weariness, and God shows up with His Power, His Provision, and Peace! So, if you’re standing on that road today, feeling like you can’t go any further, remember this: You don’t have to do it all in your own strength. God’s grace is sufficient for you, and His power is made perfect in your weakness. Keep going, you are stronger than you think because His grace is carrying you every step of the way.

This truth is inviting you to shift your perspective on how you view your weakness. Instead of seeing them as a failure or flaw, view it as an opportunity for God to show up in powerful ways. You struggle becomes the stage where His Grace is showcased and displayed, and your dependence on Him deepens your relationship with Him. When you embrace your weaknesses and surrender them to God, you create a space for His strength to flow through you, transforming your trials into testimonies! 

God’s Grace is Sufficient for you, no matter what! Thank God for your weakness, for that is when His strength in you is made perfect! The weaker you are the more His Power shows evident in your life! If you need to boast, boast gladly in your weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions and calamities, that the Power of Jesus Christ may rest upon you daily! 

Let’s Pray: 

Father, Thank You! Father, my heart is growing with gratitude, and I extol Your Majesty for, as my Father, You have manifested Your abundant Grace and Mercy towards me. You have blessed me Your Holy Spirit so that I may live with Your Power on the inside of me as I travel life’s journey. Father You are a Patient and Loving Shepherd, who guards my heart from discouragement, and guards it from boasting and in good times. Father l, I know that without you I am nothing and I have nothing that is permanent. Father, Thank You for giving me a glimpse of Your Glory, and to have a hope of Heaven because of the Grace and Mercy, that You give to me. Father, I will humbly boast in my infirmities for Your Glory, that the Power of Jesus Christ may rest upon me. In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ. Amen! 

Blessings…

Good Morning Sunshine! God Did It, Now You Can Do It, Because He Put It On The Inside Of You!

1 Chronicles 28:20 (NLT) ~ “Then David continued, ‘Be strong and courageous, and do the work. Don’t be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you or forsake you. He will see to it that all the work related to the Temple of the LORD is finished correctly.’”

Life will often present you with challenges that seem insurmountable. Whether it’s a new job, a family situation, a personal goal, or a calling from God, and you can sometimes wonder if you have what it takes to succeed. You do! Those were David’s words to his son Solomon. He reminded his son that success isn’t about your strength, but it’s about God’s Presence in your life. David tells Solomon, “Be strong and courageous, and do the work.” Why? Because “the LORD God, my God, is with you.” That’s the key! The assurance of God’s Presence changes everything! When God is with you, you can do it. Not because of your own abilities, but because God will not fail you. This same encouragement is echoed in Philippians 4:13, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” It’s not about if you can, it’s about trusting that God’s strength is working in you and through you. Even when the task feels beyond your ability, God’s Grace is sufficient! 

God is always there with you and for you! Think about Moses at the burning bush. He felt unqualified to lead Israel out of Egypt, but God reassured him in Exodus 3:12, “I will be with you.” That’s all Moses needed to hear! And that’s all you need to hear, God will be with you! The same God who parted the Red Sea, who brought down the walls of Jericho, who raised Jesus from the dead, is the same God walking with you today! Are you shouting Glory Hallelujah yet! Whatever you’re facing right now, whether it’s a difficult decision, a heavy responsibility, or a season of waiting, remember this, You can do it, because God Did It! And not because of who you are, but because of who God is. He will see to it that the work is finished correctly, in His time and in His way. When you look back on it all, you’ll see His fingerprints on every step and proclaim, “God did it!”

Pay attention to this story, “In a quiet valley nestled between two tall mountains, lived a small, bright blue train named Grace. Grace wasn’t the biggest or the fastest train in the yard, but she had a heart full of hope and faith. While the other trains boasted about their strength and speed, Grace quietly believed that with God’s help, she could do anything. One day, a big emergency arose. A long train filled with food and clothes for the next town had broken down on the other side of the mountain. Everyone was waiting, but no train could get through to deliver the goods. The strong, shiny engines refused to help. “I’m too important to climb that steep mountain, said the big freight engine.” And the other one groaned it was too tired, and the third one said it was just too hard.”

The little blue train, Grace, looked at the tall mountain and felt a flutter of fear in her heart. It was a big mountain. But then she remembered a verse her conductor often read from the Bible, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:13)! Grace took a deep breath, whispered a prayer, and said, “With God’s help, I think I can. I know I can.” The workers hitched the heavy cars to Grace, and off she went. As she approached the mountain, she could feel the weight behind her pulling her down, but she didn’t give up. With each chug of her wheels, she whispered, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” The mountain was steep, and the climb felt endless. Clouds gathered overhead, and Grace could hear the whispers of doubt from the winds around her: “You’re too small You’ll never make it. Turn back now.” 

But Grace kept her eyes on the path ahead and her heart on God’s promises. She remembered another verse her conductor loved, “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:9)! Chug by chug, Grace prayed, “With God’s help, I know I can. I know I can.” As she neared the top of the mountain, Grace felt her wheels slow. The weight of the cars behind her was heavy, and the climb felt impossible. But just when she thought she couldn’t go any further, she felt a gentle push, a strength that wasn’t her own. She realized it was God giving her the power to keep going. With one final, faithful chug, Grace reached the top of the mountain! The sun broke through the clouds, and as she started her descent, she shouted joyfully, “God did it! God did it!” When Grace arrived she smiled and said, It wasn’t just me. I trusted God, and He gave me the strength to climb that mountain. With God’s help, we can do anything! From that day on, whenever someone faced a challenge, they remembered the little blue train named Grace and her big faith. And just like Grace, they whispered to themselves, with God’s help, I think I can. I know I can.” (Author Unknown)

When you look back on the moments in your life, finishing a project, surviving a tough season, overcoming and obstacles, you should realize it wasn’t just your effort that got you through, God did it! He was there in every detail, guiding, strengthening, and ensuring that His purpose was fulfilled in your life, Isaiah 41:10, “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” The same God who upheld Solomon as he built the temple is the same God who upholds you today. His strength is perfect in your weakness.

Let’s Pray:

Thank You Father! Thank You for Your constant Presence in my life. Father, thank You for reminding me that I am never alone in the work You’ve called me to do. When I feel weak, remind me of Your strength. When I feel afraid, remind me of Your courage. When I am uncertain, anchor me in Your promises. Help me to trust that You will see the work through to completion, even when I can’t see the full picture. Father, I surrender every task, every worry, and every challenge to You. I release my need for control and invite You to lead me step by step. Give me the wisdom to discern Your will and the faith to walk boldly in obedience. Remind me that You are the one who equips and strengthens me. Even when the road gets tough and the burden feels heavy, help me to remember that You are the one carrying me through. Thank You for the victories You’ve already brought me through. Thank You for being the same God who helped me before and will help me again, may my heart overflow with gratitude and praise, boldly declaring, “God did it!” Let Your peace guard my heart and mind, and let Your joy be my strength. And when the work is finished, may my heart always give You the glory, declaring with confidence and gratitude, “God did it!”

Blessings…

Good Morning Sunshine! You Must Pick It Up! No Cross, No Crown!

Luke 9:23-24 NKJV ~ “Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me. [24] For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it.”

The Christian journey is one that invites you to carry your cross, you must be willing to endure trials, make sacrifices, and stand firm in faith. Jesus made it clear that to follow Him means to embrace discomfort, sacrifice, and selflessness. It is through the “cross” that you are refined and shaped, becoming more like Jesus Christ. The road is not always easy, but it is through the challenges that you experience the fullness of His grace and power.

Jesus had just told His disciples, that He would soon suffer many things and be killed. And then He told them this, if you are going to follow me it is going to cost you something as well. You need to deny self and stop giving empty sacrifices and surrender to God! For if there is anything that you are holding onto that is keeping you from an all-out, passionate walk with Jesus Christ, it has got to go! Selfishness and Kingdom living don’t go together! You have to decrease so that God may increase in you!

Jesus said you have to take up your cross and follow Him, daily. The cross is a symbol of the sacrifice that Jesus made for you, He willingly choose to sacrifice Himself, and to die for you out of love and obedience His Father. When you truly love God, you won’t make hollow promises and sacrifices that look good on the outside but it’s empty in the inside. Because of His sacrifice and service, you should desire to sacrifice and serve too!

Now, you have looked at self, sacrifice and now surrender! When you do the first two things, your desire to totally surrender to God becomes natural! You are totally committed to Him! It goes beyond you just giving a few hours, at a Sunday morning service, or serving at a church event every once in a while! You are willing to give it all. Losing your life for Jesus Christ means that you are completely and totally surrendered what He says, and obedience becomes your everything!

In life, many of you long for the rewards, the crown, the peace, and the victory. But the truth is, there can be no crown without the cross. The crown of eternal life, victory over sin, and God’s purpose for you cannot be fully realized unless you walk through the struggle of discipleship. The cross symbolizes the cost of following Jesus Christ, and it is through your obedience, perseverance, and faithfulness that you can claim the promise of the crown that awaits you.

Jesus invites you to take up your cross, not in defeat, but in victory. The path to the crown is not without hardship, but it leads to a glorious reward. The struggles of this life pale in comparison to the eternal glory that is to come. You are not promised an easy road, but you are promised that He will be with you every step of the way. It is in the midst of trials that you experience and encounter the power of His Presence and His Grace that sustains you.

Jesus Christ journey to the cross was one of unimaginable pain, suffering, and separation from the Father. Yet, He willingly embraced it because of His love for you. He endured the shame, the ridicule, and the physical torment because He knew that the crown of victory over sin and death was the ultimate reward. Likewise, you are called to take up your cross daily, and to know and understand that the challenges and trials you face are opportunities to grow in faith and draw closer to God.

In times of hardship, it’s easy to question the purpose of your struggles or to feel as though you’ve been forsaken. Yet, the cross is here to remind you that God is always working, even in your pain. The trials you face are not in vain, they are part of God’s perfect plan for your life, shaping you to be more like His Son. The Apostle Paul encourages you in Romans 8:18, saying, “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.” What you endure in this life is small in comparison to the eternal glory that awaits you in Heaven.

The cross teaches you humility and submission. It is not about your own desires or ambitions, but about living in obedience to God’s Will. Jesus Christ, though fully God, humbled Himself to the point of death on the cross. He set aside His own comfort and desires to fulfill the Father’s Will and redeem humanity. As you take up your cross, you are reminded that true greatness in the Kingdom of God comes through humility and self-sacrifice, not through seeking power or recognition.

Be encouraged today to bear your cross with faith and endurance, knowing that the crown that awaits you is far greater than anything you can imagine. In every trial, you can look to Jesus as your example, trusting that He will give you the strength to persevere. His promise is sure: “Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial, because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him” (James 1:12).

Let’s Pray:
Father, Thank You! Thank You, Father, no matter how I say it, it is wonderful, because of who You are, You are a Sovereign God. Father, I come before You today with my heart full of gratitude for Your unwavering love and grace. Father, I thank You for the example of Your Son, Jesus Christ, who shows me what it means to live a life of sacrifice, obedience, and love. Father, help me to embrace the cross in my life, to deny myself, and to follow You with all out of my heart. I know that the road may be difficult, but I trust in Your promises and that You will never leave me nor forsake me. Father, give me the strength to endure the hardships that come my way and to see the trials as opportunities to grow in my faith and to draw me closer to You. Father, remind me every day that no matter what I face, I am not alone. You are with me, and You have promised me victory through Your Son, Jesus Christ. Father, I long for the crown that You have promised me, but I know that it is only through the cross that I can attain it. Teach me to walk faithfully in the path that You have set before me, and may my life fully reflect Your love and grace. Help me to live with humility, always seeking to do Your Will above my own. Father, strengthen me to endure, and fill me with hope, knowing that Your Glory is revealed in and through me as I follow the example of You set before me. In the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Blessings…

Have A Blessed Weekend…

Good Morning Sunshine! Stop Giving God Substitutes and Sacrifices, He Wants You To Surrender Your Heart And Obey!

Obedience Day 2

1 Samuel 15:22 NLT ~ “But Samuel replied, “What is more pleasing to the LORD: your burnt offerings and sacrifices or your obedience to his voice? Listen! Obedience is better than sacrifice, and submission is better than offering the fat of rams.”

Have you ever tried to make up for your disobedience by doing a good deed? Let me make this plain, you ignored God’s directions, and you tried to compensate by increasing your giving, your serving and by going to Sunday service more! Yes, these are good acts, but they don’t and cannot take the place of a surrendered heart to God! Psalm 51:16-17 (NIV) – “You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it; you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings. My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise.”

In this passage, Samuel confronts King Saul after he disobeys God’s direct command. John 14:15 (NIV) – “If you love me, keep my commands.” God told Saul to destroy everything, yet he used his mind and made an executive decision on his own, to spare the best livestock. And then he tried to justify his actions by claiming he would offer them as a sacrifice to God. (You can’t give God what you want Him to have, it’s what He wants you to give Him!) When God says get destroy something, He means it! 

Do you know what surrender means? Maybe that’s where the problem lies. Surrender means that you trust that God’s way is better than your own way. It means letting go of control, excuses, and anything that keeps you from fully obeying Him. No more sacrifices, no more substitutes, just choose to surrender! 

God used Samuel to make it clear to King Saul that He values obedience more than any offering you could ever give Him. Stop trying to give God a substitute in the place of your obedience by doing religious acts like King Saul! King Saul thought he could substitute obedience with sacrifice by sparing the best livestock and then wanted to give it God! (You can’t give God what He told you to get rid of and then call it good!) Luke 6:46 (NIV) – “Why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and do not do what I say?” Samuel reminded him that God desired obedience, not sacrifices! 

You see when you offer God excuses or partial obedience, you have not surrendered fully to Him. God wants your hearts more than your ritual! True faith is walking in step with His Will, and not just performing an outward act of devotion. When God says step, you step and when He says stop you stop! If there is an area where you’ve been offering sacrifices and substitutes instead of surrendering, today is the day to repent and realign. Choose obedience, and trust that God’s way is always the best way! 

God is not looking for negotiations, He is calling for your total Surrender! There have been so many times that you have try to offer Him something else in place of what He actually asked you for! You can’t give Him more time in ministry and ignore His command to love and forgive others! You cannot increase your giving and refuse to step out in faith when He calls you into ministry. I know these substitutions may look good on the surface, but they don’t even close to being replacement for what God called you to do, obey! obedience is better than sacrifice! 

Stop trying to give God what you think will please Him instead of what He actually asked you for. He asked you to obey Him! Proverbs 21:3 (NIV) – “To do what is right and just is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.” Stop offering Him your time, talents, and money, if you are going to continue being disobedient! He desires, your obedience not your sacrifices and substitutions! He’s looking for you to surrender! Saul’s mistake was not just disobedience; it was the belief that a substitute could satisfy God. Take heed, it didn’t work then and it’s not going to work now! 

True obedience is not about doing what feels easy or good to you, and it’s not convenient, but it’s about yielding fully to God’s Will, even when it costs you something or someone. Are you holding onto something God has asked you to surrender? To let go of. And so instead of giving Him what He asked for, you offered Him a substitute instead of obedience? James 1:22 (NIV) – “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.” God doesn’t want your empty offerings; He desires your willing heart. Today, let go of your control, lay aside your excuses, and walk fully in surrendering to God as an act of love and obedience! 

Let’s Pray:

Father, Thank You for this beautiful day! I come before You with an open heart, making my declaration that I’m choosing to obey You. Father, I am asking You for strength to walk in complete obedience to Your Will. Father, forgive me for trying it my way, trying to offer you a sacrifice and substitute for what You really want from me. Father, teach me to trust You fully, even when obedience is hard for me to do. Father, remove pride, fear, and hesitation from me so that I can follow You completely. Father, I surrender my will, my desires, and my excuses. No more empty sacrifices, no more empty sacrifices and substitutions, I am giving You my full obedience! Father, help me to recognize Your voice clearly and to respond with a willing heart. Shape me into a vessel that honors You, not just in my actions, but in my daily surrender. May my life reflect true devotion, rooted in faith and trust in Your perfect plan! In the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen! 

Blessings…

Love, Minister Jean

Good Morning Sunshine! Obedience Is Truly Better Than Sacrifice! There Is No Other Choice!

Acts 5:29 AMP ~ “Then Peter and the apostles replied, “We must obey God rather than men [we have no other choice].”

There are moments in life when obedience to God is not a choice, it is a necessity! Peter and the apostles found themselves standing before religious authorities, who commanded them to stop preaching in Jesus Name, and their response was courageous and unwavering, “We must obey God rather than men.” This must be your stance, today, tomorrow and every day! This kind of obedience calls for you to have a faith that is bold and resolute, even when it cost you something or someone! The world around you may offer you countless reasons to compromise, but God’s truth leaves no room for negotiation! Period!

The voice of God won’t always be thunderous; often, it is a gentle whisper in your heart, calling you to trust Him. Obedience to God’s voice requires you to tune out distractions and seek His guidance above all else. In Deuteronomy 28:1, we see the promise that comes from obeying the voice of God, blessings that surpass human understanding. God’s instructions may not always align with what feels logical or easy, but His wisdom is perfect. When He speaks, whether through His Word, Prayer, or the prompting of the Holy Spirit, He’s not just giving you rules to follow but an invitation to walk in His perfect plan.

When you are faced with a choice between pleasing people and pleasing God, only one path leads to eternal blessing. Now if you want man’s award, acceptance and accolades then go right ahead, but just so you know and are clear, this is only temporary, and it will fade away like the sun goes down at night! But if you want God’s reward, then obedience is the only way, and His reward will last forever and ever, and it will lead you straight into eternity where you can be with Him always!

Obeying God is not always convenient or comfortable. Like the apostles, you may find yourself misunderstood, criticized, or even persecuted. Hearing and obeying God’s voice is an act of intimacy, it means trusting Him even when you can’t put your finger on it. For example, Abraham heard God’s voice calling him to leave everything familiar and journey to an unknown land. His obedience became the foundation of a great nation. You see there is beauty in walking in obedience to God, for He sees, hears, and rewards every act of your faithfulness. (Isaiah 38:3-4). You may not fully understand why He called you to walk certain roads, but you can be confident in this one thing, you can trust that His plans are for your ultimate good.

Obedience to God’s voice reveals your love for Him and aligns you with His kingdom purpose. Jesus declared, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me” (John 10:27). The more you draw near to Him, the clearer His voice becomes. Your obedience unlocks your blessings and not just for yourself but for those that are around you. Each time you choose to listen and obey, God’s Glory is revealed in your life. The essence of obedience is love. Jesus said, “If you love me, keep my commandments” (John 14:15). Loving God means that you trust Him enough to surrender your will to His Will. I know that sometimes the circumstances that you go through may feel overwhelming, remember that God is faithful!

When you are obedient to God, He promises to guide you, sustain you, and use your obedience for His Glory. Whatever God is asking of you today, let go of your hesitation and be like Peter and the apostles, trust in the God who has never failed you. There’s freedom and joy in choosing His way over all others. He speaks of His obedience not to confine you but to set you free, guiding you to live in step with His divine purpose. Today, God may not be asking you to leave your home, but He will ask you to leave fear, doubt, or unhealthy patterns behind so that you can follow Him, for His voice will lead you to a place of hope, purpose, and abundance, though the journey that requires your faith. Here is the key, you cannot do it in your own strength, but in leaning and depending on the Holy Spirit, who empowers you to say, “Yes, Lord,” even when the road feels daunting or lonely! So, instead of offering God more sacrifices to make up for your disobedience, be obedient and choose to give Him your surrendered heart from the start. Obedience is better than sacrifice, 1 Samuel 15:22!

Let’s Pray:
Father, Thank You for reminding me of the importance of obedience, I’m coming to You with a humble heart, asking You to give me strength to be fully obedient to You, especially when I am faced with decisions that challenge my faith, help me to stand firm in Your Word and on Your truth. Father, I surrender my own desires, my doubts, and my fears to You, Thank You for speaking to me through Your Word and through the Holy Spirit. Help me to quiet the noise of the world so I can hear Your voice clearly, for I desire to follow Your Word and Will completely, and let my actions, decisions, and words reflect my trust in You alone knowing that Your plans are always for my good. Father, give me courage like Peter and the apostles to choose You above all else. Father, forgive me for the times I tried to substitute sacrifice for obedience. Father, give me a love so deep for You that obedience becomes my natural response. Father, teach me to obey You without hesitation, even when I don’t understand the full picture. Give me faith like Abraham to follow wherever You lead and courage to align my life with Your Will. Father, remind me of Your promises when the journey feels difficult, and help me trust in Your goodness. Let my obedience bring Glory to Your Name and lead others to trust in You as well. I choose to serve You above all else, now and forever. In the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Good Morning Sunshine! Not Every Yes Is God’s Yes, Know The Difference!

Proverbs 14:12 ~ “There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death.”

In life, there will be opportunities that will present themselves to you, they will sound good, look good, and seem like they’re God-sent! A promotion at work, an invitation to lead a new group, or even the chance to volunteer in a ministry, all these things can appear beneficial on the surface. But have you ever stopped to ask, “Is this God’s will for my life?” For when you say yes to everything that sounds good, you run the risk of stepping out of God’s perfect plan for your life.

Not every door is meant for you to walk through, and not every invitation that you receive is meant to be accepted! (This is a lesson that you don’t want to learn the hard way, and if I can be transparent for a moment, I learned this lesson the hard way one time and that is why I am sharing it with you! You only want God’s yes!) You see sometimes, what seems like a blessing can become a distraction, so you need to always pray for discernment, pause and be patient and allow God time to speak to you! And please whatever you do, don’t overcommit yourself because you want to please someone, for this will leave you overwhelmed, burnt out, discouraged and disconnected from God!

I want to tell you a story about a young lady and a seasoned woman. There was a young lady who was sitting in a waiting room, her knee bouncing with impatience. She had sent out three job applications last week and had not heard anything back. She felt like her prayers had been met with silence! She felt like God had forgotten all about her. A seasoned woman who was sitting by her said, “Sounds like you’re waiting on something big,” the woman said kindly. She gave the seasoned woman a weak smile; and said “I’ve been praying for weeks, and nothing is moving. I’m trying, but I just don’t understand why God hasn’t answered yet.”

The seasoned woman leaned forward in the chair; her voice soft but steady. “Honey, do you know how long Joseph waited after God gave him the dream that he’d lead others?” She shook her head no. Then the seasoned woman said, “Thirteen years, and most of that time, he was in prison or bondage. But Joseph never lost his faith, and in God’s perfect timing, he went from the pit to the palace.” (Read Genesis chapters 37-50). So, did you read and hear that, he went from the pit to the palace, thirteen years later, he had to wait on God! Take notes, sometimes you have to wait for the promise! Joseph trusted God, even when he was crying out in his darkest moments, he remained faithful, trusting that God was working even when nothing seemed to be happening.

Here is a lesson you need to learn in life, God’s delays are not His denials. Sometimes He says, ‘Pause.’ Sometimes, ‘Be patient.’ And He says to always, ‘Pray.’ (Ephesians 6:18 & 1 Thessalonians 5:17)! For when you rush ahead of His timing, you might settle for less than what He has prepared for you. But when you wait, His plan will exceed anything that you can imagine! Yes, it is easy to want a quick answer and instant solutions, but is this really God’s Will for your life? When you find yourself here, remember this scripture, Isaiah 40:31, “But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” This verse will carry you through tough times and remind you of the Word of God that you had forgotten, to trust God!

The seasoned woman smiled and shared one last thought. “Waiting isn’t just sitting around doing nothing, it’s about actively trusting God while you wait and worship. While you wait, serve others. While you wait, let God refine you. The waiting season is often where God prepares you for the blessing to come.” Consider Jesus Christ life, He had endless opportunities to say yes to people, miracles, and ministry, but He didn’t allow Himself to be led by popularity, urgency, or pressure. Instead, He was led by His Father, John 5:19, Jesus said, “The Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing.” Even Jesus aligned His yes with God’s direction. Let your yes align with God and you won’t say yes to the wrong thing!

When you lean into God and seek Him in prayer, He will guide you towards what is truly meant for you. Saying yes to His plans, whether big or small, will yield peace, provision, and purpose. Saying yes to everything else often results in chaos, regret, or wasted time. You need to learn how to Pause and Pray! Ask God for clarity and guidance, Proverbs 3:6 reminds us, “In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.” Learn the Word of God so that you are not carried off astray by the world! Be Obedient, and when God says go, step forward! When He says no or wait, trust Him! Learn your place in His plan! The Lord has a unique role for you, and when you remain faithful to it, you create room for His blessings to overflow in your life. God honors those who trust Him, even when they have to say no to someone or something that seemingly sounds or looks good. Remember, if it’s not God’s yes, it’s not your yes!

So, the young lady closed her eyes and whispered a prayer, “Father, forgive me for my impatience. Help me to trust You and wait on Your perfect plan. Teach me to worship while I wait, knowing You are faithful to Your promises.” And it was at that moment when she opened her eyes, and she noticed the room seemed quieter, her thoughts were aligned to God’s Word and she heard the seasoned woman say these words, “Pause. Be Patient. Pray.” The young lady may have not had all the answers, but she had the peace of God! She realized the waiting season wasn’t a punishment for her, it was preparation for what God had in store for her, and it would be worth the wait, and she was ready to walk forward in faith, trusting Him with her future. So, today are you ready? To Pause! Be Patient! Pray Always! Await the Promises! For His Word over you is true, trust the process and await the promise!

Let’s Pray:
Father, Thank You for being a God of wisdom and order. Help me to discern the difference between a good opportunity and Your Perfect Will. Teach me to listen for Your guidance before saying yes to anything. Give me Your peace when I need to say no and strength to follow where You lead. May my obedience bring You Glory and bless the path You’ve prepared for me. Thank You Father for reminding me that life’s timing is not my own. Help me to stop and be still when I’m overwhelmed, to embrace Your patience in my seasons of waiting, and to come to You in prayer with every concern. Teach me to trust You fully, knowing that Your ways are higher than mine. Strengthen my faith as I wait, and let my life be a testimony of Your faithfulness. Father, Thank You for sustaining and strengthening me through this process. Father, as I am praying today, I invite You into every area of my life and I pray that You will align my heart’s desires with Your Will, Philippians 4:6 encourages us, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” Father it is through prayer, that I acknowledge that I can’t do it all on my own. Father, I surrender my plans and worries to You, for You hold my future in Your Hands. Father, Thank You for reminding me that the waiting season is never wasted when I put my trust in You. Help me to pause and rest in Your Presence, to be patient as You work behind the scenes, and to pray with confidence at all times, knowing that You hear me, I trust that Your plans for me are good and pleasing to You. In Jesus Christ Name. Amen!

Good Morning Sunshine! You Have Been Delivered To Be Developed For Your Destiny And His Glory!

2 Corinthians 5:17 ~ “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!”

Have you ever prayed that you could have a new life? Sometimes the thought of just waking up to a brand-new morning, with no problems no obstacles, sounds so good, you just want a new day full of nothing but God’s promises, this sounds so good, doesn’t it! Here are three things I want to say about this, if you think that you are not going to have any problems you are wrong. If you have grown up in church all of your life and not in Jesus Christ and just knowing about the promises and receiving the promises are on a different spectrum all together, and if you have problems and you haven’t accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, that’s an even greater problem! Choose today who you will serve, Joshua 24:15!

You see in this life you will have trials and tribulations, the Word of God said it, John 16:33. So you need Jesus Christ to help you walk through this, you cannot do it alone. When you accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savor, your salvation becomes sealed and secured, Romans 10:9-11! In that moment a miracle takes place in your life that establishes your life changing! In that instant, Jesus Christ rescued you from the bondage of sin and brought you into a new life with Him. But this is not where it ends, this is just the beginning of your deliverance! Deliverance is only the beginning; development must follow!

There it is, you said yes, you got baptized and that’s it, you thought everything would automatically fall into place! You thought your life would change immediately, no more doing or thinking the wrong things, that’s not how it works, now you have to let Word of God do the work of changing you. It’s like someone saying they want to run track, saying it is only half the battle, you actually have to train, be disciplined and then run, you don’t run first and then become disciplined and trained! You accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, now you need to be developed in the Word!

Consider the Israelites journey to exodus from Egypt; God delivered them with mighty signs and wonders, yet they didn’t walk straight into the Promised Land. Instead, they embarked on a wilderness journey where their faith was tested, their hearts were purified, and their dependency on God was established. They were delivered from Egypt, but it took time to develop their trust and obedience to God. It is going to take you some time to be developed in the Word of God, because you have been living according to the world standards and there is a difference. You want to be developed in the Word of God, then this requires daily communication and interactions with Him! You have to move away from the world thinking to thanking God for His Word!

It takes time for you to develop trust in God, because this kind of trust is supernatural, for it is a production of God’s indwelling Spirit being activated on the inside of you. So, when you have God and things seem like they are going all wrong in your life, put your trust in Him anyway, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” Proverbs 3:5, for you are being developed in Him and He is not concerned with the right circumstances, but He’s concerned about your right response to Him when He comes your way, and no matter what comes your way, He got it, and He’s got you too!

Think about this when you were delivered from sin, you were saved by grace. God desires to clean you up, mold you, teach you, and shape you into the likeness of Jesus Christ. The Apostle Paul tells us, “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind” (Romans 12:2). This renewal is an ongoing process that involves surrender, obedience, and a hunger for God’s Word daily, you can never get enough of the Word, the more you read it, the more you will desire it, the more you desire it to more of it you will have!

Your development will happen in your seasons of waiting or testing. It’s during these moments that God refines your character, deepens your faith, and teaches you to rely fully on Him. Philippians 1:6 reminds us of this truth: “He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” If you’ve been delivered, rejoice, because you are on your way to being developed for your destiny! God is using His Word, to grow you and develop you into His likeness! You Are being delivered to developed in God! Let’s read today’s scripture again, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!”

That’s says it all! When you choose Jesus Christ, you get a new life because of what He did, He Died and Rose again, and because you made that  your choice, His Spirit lives on the inside of you now, and you are a new creation, delivered, developed, devoted and destined to be a disciple of Jesus Christ! Now all of your tomorrows are full of hope and promises, and His most sacred promise is to dwell within you because you have declared Him as your Lord and Savior, delivered and developed for your destiny and for His Glory!

Let’s Pray:
Jesus, I thank You for making me a new creation in You. Your life is now mine life, help me live my life knowing Your promises, and that my old ways are no more. Father, Thank You for delivering me from the chains of sin and giving me a new life in Jesus Christ. Father, help me to submit to Your process of development, trusting that You are shaping me for Your Glory. Teach me to follow You daily, to embrace the work of the Holy Spirit, and to study the Word of God daily as I am being developed into the person You’ve called me to be. Give me patience in the process, endurance in trials, and a heart that remains faithful to Your Will. Strengthen my faith when I feel weak, renew my hope when I grow weary, and fill me with Your peace when I feel overwhelmed. Father, surround me with godly counsel and community to encourage and guide me as I am being developed in You. Father, let my life reflect Your love and truth, not for my own sake but for Your Glory. Father, develop in me the fruits of the Spirit so that I can bring light to others and glorify Your name in all I do. Thank You for Your unending faithfulness, Your constant Presence, and the assurance that You will complete the work You’ve started in me and that You are the LORD of my life, and You are more powerful than my past, present, or future self could ever be! In Jesus Name. Amen!

Blessings…

Good Morning Sunshine! Stay In Step With The Spirit Of God!

Galatians 5:25 AMP ~ “If we [claim to] live by the [Holy] Spirit, we must also walk by the Spirit [with personal integrity, godly character, and moral courage—our conduct empowered by the Holy Spirit].”

Keeping in step with the Spirit is not about striving in your own strength. It’s about yielding to God’s power working in you. As Jesus said in John 15:5, “Apart from Me you can do nothing.” When you rely on the Spirit, He equips you to live lives that reflect God’s love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23).

I want to tell you a story about staying in step. “There was a young lady who loved to run track. Every morning, she would lace up her shoes and hit the trails, she found peace in the rhythm of her footsteps. One day, someone suggested she run with a partner, one with more experience to help her improve her form.  As they began to run together, she noticed that her pace was steady and disciplined, and she wanted to run ahead, and leave her. And every time she did that the other runner, would call her out, “Stay with me and Trust the rhythm.” So, she slowed down, but she wondered how she could ever reach her goal by running at this pace. After weeks of running together, she began to see a Shift. (When you follow God and not you, you will start seeing the Shift.) Her breathing became easier, her strides stronger, and she finished her runs more energized than exhausted. She realized that the steady rhythm had been guiding her all along, helping her move with precision rather than wasting energy on her own scattered efforts.”

I told you this long story just to say this to you! This is how you Walk in Step with the Spirit! Stay the pace even when you feel tempted to run ahead. For when you Trust the Spirit’s leading, you stay aligned with His timing, for He will bring strength, endurance, and peace to your journey! God is calling you to not rush ahead or be impatience or to hesitate in fear but to walk closely by His side, trusting His perfect pace. As Psalm 37:23 reminds us, “The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in Him.” When you stay in step with God, your path may not always feel fast or easy, but it will always be right. Staying in step with the Spirit of God requires intentionality on your part.

Staying in sync with the Spirit isn’t always easy, but you can do it when you let Him set the pace and you follow. There are so many distractions in this world, the busyness of life, and the pull of your own desires can make you drift off course. That’s why Paul also reminds you in Romans 12:2, “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” When you renew your mind in God’s Word and spend time in prayer, you are recalibrating your steps to align with His. It’s a conscious choice to start your day seeking Him, and His plans, it’s your place of surrender and trusting that His wisdom far exceeds your own. It means being sensitive to His whispers in your heart, nudging you to show love, grace, kindness, patience, or forgiveness, even when you feel like it is inconvenient or undeserved.

Consider the relationship between a shepherd and sheep. In John 10:27, Jesus says, “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” The sheep who follow closely behind their shepherd are safe and secure, walking the best path for their well-being. The same is true for you when you follow the Spirit’s leading. He guides you away from danger, redirects you when you stray, and leads you to the abundant life God has prepared! Keeping in step with the Spirit requires you to show up for yourself each day and begin in praise, prayer, and worship and inviting the Spirit to guide your thoughts and actions, and by spending time in God’s Word to build a foundation for you to recognize His voice!

Create moments of stillness in your daily routine to hear His gentle whispers and be quick to obey when He nudges you, even if it challenges your comfort zone. Surround yourself with a community of believers who encourage your faith and challenge you to grow spiritually. Reflect on areas where you may be tempted to run ahead of the Spirit in impatience or lag behind in fear. Ask yourself if there are places in your life where you’ve tuned out His guidance and take practical steps to deepen your sensitivity to His leading. These small, consistent actions can help you realign your life with the Spirit’s rhythm and experience His peace and Presence daily!

Walking with God requires more than occasional obedience; it’s about a daily rhythm, a continuous connection to His Spirit. When Paul encourages you, the believers to “keep in step with the Spirit,” he is describing a picture of a lifestyle of surrender and submission to God’s divine guidance, Will, Presence, and to be aligned to His purpose! It is about letting the Spirit guide your steps in every aspect of your life, your thoughts, your decisions, and your actions. Imagine a marching band where each marcher is in perfect sync. The beauty lies not in individual talent but in collective unity with the drumbeat. The Holy Spirit is your divine conductor, setting the rhythm of your life. Yet, how often do you try to march to the beat of your own desires instead of yielding to God’s gentle leading? Get your steps together and follow God!

Let’s Pray:
Thank You Father! Father, thank You for the gift of Your Spirit, who gives life and guides my every step. Forgive me for the times when I’ve followed my own plans instead of seeking Your will. Help me to tune my heart to Your voice and to remain sensitive to Your direction. Transform my desires so they align with Yours. Lord, fill me with Your Spirit so that I may bear fruit that brings glory to You. Father, teach me to trust You more deeply, even when I don’t understand the path ahead. Keep me grounded in Your Word, and let it be a lamp to my feet and a light to my path (Psalm 119:105). Surround me with godly counsel and encouragement, so that I can walk steadfastly in the way You’ve called me. Help me to remain patient when I’m tempted to run ahead and courageous when I feel like I’m falling behind. Father, Thank You for walking beside me, for going ahead of me, and for working all things for my good and Your Glory! Father, may my life be a reflection of Your Spirit at all times, living in Your peace, sharing Your love, and glorifying Your Name is where I want to be found! In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Blessings…
Love, Minister Jean
Have A Blessed Weekend…

Good Morning Sunshine! You Are Secure, For His Everlasting Arms Got You!

Deuteronomy 33:27 NKJV ~ “The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms; He will thrust out the enemy from before you, and will say, ‘Destroy!”

Have you ever felt like you were navigating your life from the position of a tightrope high above the ground? And with every step you took, it required you to have courage, to focus, and to trust Him. For the weight of fear and doubt tried to sway you, and made you wondered “What if I fall? What if the rope breaks?” But then you remembered, God’s promise to you, that His Everlasting Arms are underneath you, ready to catch, support, and guide you, overtook that negative thought. So, when the weight of the world tries to threaten you and cause you to lose balance, you won’t fall, because you know that you know that your God got you! And this is exactly what today’s scripture is for, to remind you that God will not let you fall! His Everlasting Arms are there to catch you! Deuteronomy 33:27 paints a vivid picture of God as your refuge and steady foundation. His arms aren’t just there as an afterthought, they are everlasting, and strong enough to uphold you no matter how heavy the burden or difficult the journey. You don’t have to walk the tightrope alone; His Presence surrounds and sustains you.

Isaiah 26:3-4, is there also to remind you of the peace that comes with trusting in the Lord, “You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You. Trust in the LORD forever, for in YAH, the LORD, is everlasting strength.” As you take each step, set your mind and heart on God. He is both the strength beneath your feet and the stillness in your soul. Not only does God steady you, but He also fights for you. God is and has assured you time and time again that He will thrusts out your enemy before you and speaks destruction over anything that seeks to harm His children! He will run away your enemy, fear, failure, or opposition, or anything else that may try to shake you, God has already cleared the path and declared victory on your behalf!

Psalm 46:1 reinforces this truth, “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” No matter how narrow the tightrope feels, the eternal God walks with you. His arms catch every stumble and steady every step. God’s everlasting arms are more than a safety net; they are the foundation beneath your entire life! God doesn’t just catch you when you fall, He carries you while you walk, even when you feel too weak to take another step, He got you. “He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall, but those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.” Isaiah 40:29-31!

As you walk through life’s challenges, His strength ensures that you are never left to balance your life alone. Trust in Him to steady your steps and to hold you securely in His care. The tightrope isn’t just about balance; it’s often about navigating the storms that rage around you. When the winds howl, and the rope seems too thin to hold you, remember, “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most-High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in Him I will trust.” Psalm 91:1-2! His shadow is your place of protection. His arms are your place of peace. Even as the storms rage, you are safe in His refuge and He will give you victory over your enemy for He promises, “The LORD will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.” Exodus 14:14!

Rest in the knowledge that every battle is already in His hands. So, be confident when you are walking on life’s tightrope, don’t rely on your own strength to keep you upright, ‘Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” Proverbs 3:5-6! Learn to lean into the steady Presence of God. He is not only your safety net but also your guide, leading you step by step! Take your next step with confidence. The eternal God is not only watching from above; His arms are underneath you, His Spirit is within you, and His victory is before you. You’re safe in His care. Walk boldly, knowing you are never alone!

Let’s Pray:

Thank You Father! Thank You for being my refuge and my strength. Thank You for Your everlasting arms that hold me, sustain me, and carry me through life’s most difficult moments. When the path ahead seems uncertain, remind me that I can trust You completely to go before me, thrust out every enemy, and make my way straight. Father, when fear and doubt creep in, help me to fix my eyes on You, the author and finisher of my faith. Strengthen me when I feel weak and renew my spirit when I feel weary. Guard my heart from the lies of the enemy and fill my mind with Your truth and promises. Surround me with Your peace that surpasses all understanding and silence the storms that threaten to shake my faith. Father, I ask that You guide my every step and help me to walk in obedience to Your Will. Father, reveal the paths You have prepared for me and give me wisdom to follow them faithfully. Teach me to lean on Your understanding and not my own. Strengthen my trust in Your perfect timing, even when my circumstances seem uncertain. Father, I surrender every burden, every fear, and every challenge into Your hands, knowing that You are more than able to carry me through. Thank You for Your faithfulness and unfailing love. Thank You for Your everlasting arms that are always underneath me, keeping me safe and secure. May my life be a reflection of Your Glory and Your Goodness! In the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Blessings…
