A CHOICE 🌼

+We must choose how to live. We can choose joy by believing and trusting in God’s promises for our lives. Or we can choose to focus on the negative and difficult parts of our journeys, allowing them to rob us of joy.⁣

⁣

+It will take practice and relying on the Holy Spirit for help, but we can choose joy—knowing that “in all things God works for the good of those who love him” (Romans 8:28).⁣

⁣

🙏 Dear God, Giver of Joy, please help me to choose to follow You and believe and trust You this day. Thank You for being so great. You see the big picture when I can only see what's right in front of me.⁣

⁣

+Today, please help me to trust in Your Word, and not let my doubt overcome my faith. I give you complete control of my life today. In Jesus' name, Amen. ☝️🙌🪄🌻🤍

GOD IS SHAPING YOU 🌼

+All of us will face trials, tests and temptations. We will go through ‘fire’ and ‘rough waters’.⁣

⁣

+There will be times when ‘you’re between a rock and a hard place’. These are difficult times.⁣

⁣

+Sometimes you may want to give up. You cannot understand what is going on.⁣

⁣

+God is shaping you. He often uses the difficulties and challenges in our life like sandpaper – to smooth the rough edges.⁣

⁣

+He uses them to strengthen your character, change you and advance his purpose in your life.⁣

⁣

+In all the struggles and difficulties of life, God has a good plan for your future. He says, ‘I’m about to do something brand-new... I’m making a road through the desert, rivers in the badlands’.⁣

⁣

+If you are in a ‘desert’ or the ‘badlands’ right now, trust God that he has a good plan for your future.⁣

⁣

+God may not take it away, but he has promised to be with you, to walk with you, and to protect you as you go through it. 😊⁣

⁣

🙏 Lord, thank you that in your amazing love for me, you paid a huge price for me. Thank you that I am precious and honoured in your sight.⁣

⁣

+In all the challenges and difficulties, help me to keep on trusting that you have a good purpose for my life. In Jesus name, Amen. ☝️🙌🪄🌻🖤

PRAYER 🌼

🙏 God, I praise You, for You are mighty to save. I adore You because Your mercies renew each and every morning.⁣

⁣

+I give You my adoration, for You are in control over everything and every circumstance. You fight for me before I even know I'm in a battle.⁣

⁣

+And You protect me before I'm aware that I need protection. But even still, You invite me to make my request known to You, because You love to hear from me.⁣

⁣

+Wow! Thank You for caring about every area of my life. Today, help me to trust You. In Jesus' name, Amen. 🙌☝️🪄🌻🤍

God Can Handle It 🌼⁣⁣

+No one goes through life without difficulties and hard times.⁣

⁣

+The Bible never promises that we will not face hard times or difficult situations.⁣

⁣

+But it does promise us God’s strength and grace in these times.⁣

⁣

+The choice you make, makes you. Don't listen to things that holds you back.⁣

⁣

+Instead, hear the things that moves you forward.⁣

⁣

+Every day, you will choose where to place your faith. Is it going to be on Jesus or your circumstances?⁣

⁣

+Giving God your worries and casting your cares on Him shows your faith is placed in Him, not your circumstances.⁣

⁣

+Today, choose to cast your cares on the Lord.⁣

⁣

+God can handle it. 😊⁣

⁣

🙏 God, thank You for the good plans You have for me. With Your help, there is nothing I can't do for Your Kingdom!⁣

⁣

+Please fill me with the Holy Spirit so I can always know where to go, what to do, and who to talk to. Today, I want You to take the lead. In Jesus' name, Amen. 🙌☝️🪄🌻🤍

Gratitude Is The Key To Your Future⁣⁣

+In seasons of great difficulty or change, you might wonder, "What is God's will for my life?" It's a commonly asked question when the future seems uncertain.⁣

⁣

+But did you know you can be content in times of uncertainty by shifting your focus from what you don't know to what you do know?⁣

⁣

+You can start by asking yourself, "Amid all this difficulty, what am I thankful for?"⁣

⁣

+When circumstances change, it's easy to get caught up in listing everything going wrong. You quickly see a mounting list of people who treat you poorly, things that don't go your way, and roadblocks that keep you from where you want to be.⁣

⁣

+Take a moment to think of just a few things you are thankful for today. A grateful heart is like a water tap; once you turn on the faucet, thankfulness, like the water, will continually flow.⁣

⁣

+Before you know it, you will have a long list, no matter what else is going on around you. In thankful remembering, you'll find that your vision for your future is secure as your heart aligns with God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 😊⁣

⁣

🙏 God, thank You that nothing I go through is wasted, and nothing I face is too hard for You. When I am tempted to believe a lie, please remind me of Your truth.⁣

⁣

+Keep me centered in Your Word so that I don't miss out on the plans You have for me. In Jesus' name, Amen. ☝️🙌🌻🪄🤍
