๐Ÿ’Œ We do not know what to do, but our eyes are upon you (2 Chronicles 20:12).

+Being reminded of God’s ability to deliver us increases our faith that he can do it again.

+God really is powerful. In fact, God is all-powerful; he is ‘omnipotent’. You can trust him. ๐Ÿ˜Š

๐Ÿ™ Lord, I trust you today with the battles I face. Thank you that they are *your* battles. I don’t know what to do but my eyes are upon you.

+Thank You for Your presence and power that is working in my life. I am overwhelmed by Your faithfulness.

+Thank You that even when I face uncertainty, You remain the same. Help my life to overflow with thankfulness. In Jesus’ name, Amen. ๐Ÿ™Œ☝️๐ŸŒป๐Ÿช„๐ŸคŽ

Our True Hope ☝️

+Life can be difficult.

+All of us go through seasons that are filled with complications, frustrations, or grief. And even if you're not experiencing one of those things today, you’ve probably had moments when you’ve grown tired of doing good.

+As much as we want to live well and do good to others, the truth is that we will all grow weary of it at some point.

+In Isaiah 40:31, Isaiah says that those who hope in God will find renewed strength.

+The key to perseverance in difficult seasons is not about simply pushing through and trying harder.

+Strength isn’t found in merely hoping that our circumstances will change, but in God Himself.

+God’s Word says that true strength comes from placing our hope in Him. Because God is all-powerful, He alone has the power to change our circumstances. But God also knows that as humans, we grow weary and restless.

+We sometimes place our hope in temporary solutions when we should be relying on God—the only One who can truly help us.

+But when we place our hope in God alone, Scripture tells us we will find renewed strength to endure life’s challenges.

+We will be like birds who soar in the sky, not on our own strength—but on the strength God provides.

+Placing our hope in God means giving up our own control and letting Him guide us.

+It means we stop trying to force our future and let God work within our lives in His timing.

+Hoping in God means trusting in His promises—even if we don’t see them fulfilled in our lifetime.

+Spend some time today renewing your hope in God. Let Him search your heart. Pray that you will be filled with the strength and hope that God only can provide! ๐Ÿ˜Œ

๐Ÿ™ God, all my hope is in You. You are all I need. Thank You for being my protector and the source of my strength. In every situation I face, I ask for Your courage and endurance to face it and handle it well.

+Please guide me with Your wisdom as I make decisions, and fill me with peace as I do what You’ve called me to do. In Jesus’ name, Amen. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐ŸŒป๐Ÿช„

A Journey with God

+Following God is a journey.

+It’s not just a one-time decision. It’s a lifelong pilgrimage, a day-by-day walk of trust, transformation, and faithfulness. 

+Psalm 84 paints a beautiful picture of travelers whose hearts are set on reaching God’s dwelling place. They’re blessed, not because the road is easy, but because their strength comes from Him.

+If our strength came from ourselves, we wouldn’t make it very far. Life brings challenges: dry seasons, steep climbs, unexpected detours. If we’re depending only on our own energy, it’s easy to get weary and discouraged.

+But when our strength is in God, the journey changes. We’re not walking alone. We’re empowered by His Spirit. We’re supported by His promises. We have a clear destination, and the blessing is not just at the end, but along the way.

+A heart set on pilgrimage is a heart that knows this world is not our home. We’re pressing on toward something greater, and toward Someone greater.

+If today finds you tired or uncertain, remember this: the strength you need isn’t something you have to muster up. It’s something God freely gives. Lean into Him. Set your heart on the journey. He’ll be faithful every step of the way. ๐Ÿ˜Š

๐Ÿ™ God, thank You for being my strength. Set my heart firmly on You and the journey You’ve called me to. When I get tired, lift me up. When I feel lost, guide me. Help me trust that You are leading me home. Amen. ๐Ÿ™Œ☝️๐Ÿช„๐ŸŒป๐Ÿ’š

Ezekiel 36:26 ๐Ÿ’Œ
‘I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.’

+There are many things that can harden our hearts. There are battles, struggles, disappointments and heartbreaks; even too much success can mean pride creeps in and takes hold. God wants soft hearts that are open and responsive to him.

๐Ÿ™ God, thank you for being present and with me, even now. Although sometimes it feels like I'm still waiting on what's next, I know You have a good plan for my life.

+Thank you for being never too far away for me to run to you or ask for help. Help me to continue to follow after you faithfully. In Jesus Name, Amen. ๐Ÿ™Œ☝️๐ŸŒป๐Ÿช„๐Ÿ’œ

GOODNESS OF GOD ๐Ÿ˜


+Don’t be afraid to let go of something whose time has passed. It can go out in a blaze of beautiful glory, long remembered and treasured.

+Letting go makes way for new buds, shoots, flowers, and leaves. As something old passes and something new takes its place, the tree grows year by year. And so do we.

+The peace of God protects us when we trust that the God of peace is with us. Liberated from the burden of clinging to concerns, we can experience peace in the release of every prayer into God’s trustworthy hands. ๐Ÿ˜Š

๐Ÿ™ Dear God, thank You for being my peace whenever I release my worries into Your hands. Thank You for all of the wonderful things You’ve done in my life.

+Sometimes when my circumstances are hard, I can forget about Your goodness. In those moments, help me to trust Your goodness and love for me. Help me to keep my focus on You. In Jesus’ name, Amen. ๐Ÿ™Œ☝️๐Ÿช„๐ŸŒป๐Ÿ–ค

Cast it Off

+Are you overwhelmed by the weight of a burden you were never meant to carry?

๐Ÿ’Œ “Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved.”

-‭‭Psalm‬ ‭55‬:‭22‬ ‭ESV

+What burdens are you carrying? The big ones, the little ones, and everything in between. The everyday worries, the soul-crushing fears, the agonizing shame. 

+Did you know that you can surrender all of them to the Lord—rather than crumbling under their pressure?

+God wants to carry your burdens, but you have to cast them off.

+So don’t just half-heartedly set down your burdens or passively give them to God; cast them at His feet. You can trust that He will sustain you and give you the strength to stand.

๐Ÿ™ Lord, thank You for helping me carry the burdens, big and small, that threaten to weigh me down. You know all my troubles, yet You promise they will not overtake me. Please give me strength and hope when I feel overwhelmed. In Jesus’ name, Amen. ๐Ÿ™Œ☝️๐Ÿช„๐ŸŒป๐Ÿ–ค
