Ministering Under Duress
God is faithful to finish what He started. Even under duress, He has anointed you to be productive. Therefore, you will excel anyway. You will thrive anyway. You will be blessed anyway. God’s will shall be accomplished anyway. His favor will be showered upon you anyway.
God will do a lot with a little
God specializes in doing a lot with a little, and that’s what He’s going to do in your life. You may feel like you don’t have enough resources, insight, strength, fortitude, help, courage, ability, or access. While that may be true, God is going to supernaturally increase what you have!
God will fully restore
In life, when we go through hard times, we sometimes walk away damaged, in need of help, repair, and restoration. We lose people and things, and moments like this can hurt us deeply. But God is sending you this word to assure you that He will fully restore. And greater things are coming!
It’s your shifting season
Accept the transition – even through the painful and uncomfortable moments. What’s on the other side of this is amazing. Trust God through your dry places. Believe God has equipped you. Willingly give up what you’re used to in exchange for the new and better thing God is doing!
One step away from a breakthrough
You may not be receiving any awards or validation right now. You may not see great things manifesting. Your life may show forth no fruit of obedience yet. That doesn’t mean the steps you’re taking don’t count. Every step counts, especially steps you take by faith!
All you'll ever see is victory
Today, God wants you to check your lens. How are you seeing and interpreting things? Is Scripture guiding you, or is culture influencing you? If you want to preserve your peace and live the abundant life Christ came to give you, see things through His lens, and all you’ll see is victory.
From disappointment to destiny
Facing disappointments? Don’t worry. This road leads to destiny. In the meantime, remember that temporary suffering is tied to the the glory of the Father. Also, through every phase of your journey, as long as you remain faithful, God will cause all things to work together for your good.
Good Friday
Happy Good Friday! Though we call this day good and celebrate it as joyful, it is indeed a solemn day because we focus on the suffering Jesus Christ endured on the cross of Calvary. On Good Friday, we look at the ugliness, pain and horror of crucifixion while giving thanks to God that Christ gave His ife to save ours.
The lie detector
For somebody reading, the enemy has been lying to you and worrying you and making you anxious. He’s been discouraging you and making you feel like God’s good plan for your life won’t unfold. But you have been praying and seeking God’s face, and today’s devotion is God’s response to you.
Although you don’t see Him…
Although you don’t see God, He’s working, and all your problems must bow down at His feet and submit to His will. Don’t fear. Know that God is faithful to bring you through the wilderness, make a way, calm the storm and lift you out of your low place. He’ll do it through His all-surpassing power.
Unpredictable
None of us knows when God will do something spectacular. We can’t predict His ways. All we can do is trust His leading, His timing and His faithfulness. Though we don’t know when, where or how God will show up, we can be confident that He has extraordinary plans!
When God takes you the long way
Is your breakthrough taking a long time to manifest? Are you feeling a little discouraged? The road may be rocky and the trial may last longer than you want it to. But, since God has seen fit to take you this route, trust that His ways are always right, and He is doing it for your good.
Embrace life's pauses
Don’t ever mistake a pause for a conclusion. God has more in store for you, and the story isn’t over yet. View pauses as divine interruptions and preparation phases that lead to better things. Wait on the Lord. Trust Him. He will usher you into a new season of release and breakthrough.
In times of crisis, Christ is
In times like these, remember that we serve the God of the crisis. Though trouble may creep up on us and catch us off guard, God is not surprised by any trouble or attack. He stands ready, willing and able to help, deliver and rescue us in our time of need. While the world yells crisis, you declare, Christ is.
Blessings will spring forth
Are you in a place where you’re believing God to make a way, but you don’t know how He’ll do it? Do you feel a bit discouraged and distressed sometimes as you await manifestation? This word will assure you that God will not fail you. He will bless you—guaranteed!
You will turn a corner
Stay in the word of God. Stay on your knees, seeking the Lord. Stay focused on your spiritual growth and development, and remain full of faith. Even though you may hit rough patches here and there, you can be confident that you will turn a corner, rise up and emerge victoriously.
Fight
Life tries you sometimes, and situations can get so hard, you’ll want to give up. But in today’s inspiration, Dianna Hobbs assures you that if you hold on, fight on, and press on, you will see God release the kind of blessings and favor He reserves for those who are willing to fight and persevere.
You only need to call one name
When you are in distress and going through something hard, simply call on the name of Jesus. There is power in that name; healing in that name; deliverance in that name; breakthrough in that name; peace in that name; salvation in that name; everything you need is in that name!
God's hand is orchestrating it
Stay connected to God, stay surrendered to His will, stay prayerful, and stay open to His leading. Then you will see God create outcomes in your life that you didn’t have the money, power, knowledge, connections, or favor to achieve on your own. You will know His hand has orchestrated it!
Never, ever give up
Don’t let anything make you quit the race—no matter how ugly things get. Anticipate some setbacks and disappointments. Be aware that you won’t always be able to go as fast as you’d like to. Occasionally, your life may even feel like a wreck. But keep going, and you’ll be blessed!
