"But I do not count my life of any value to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the good news of God’s grace." Acts 20:24 (NRSV)
There are many things that will fluctuate in your life. God is the one constant you can depend on. He is faithful to do just what He says. You can stand firm and immoveable on His promises to you. When God speaks a word over your life and your situation, it does not matter what it looks like, He will do just what He said. That is why it is so important to clear your life of all the clutter and influences that are not of Him. You need to be able to clearly hear from Him, so you can hold onto what He has spoken to you. The prophetic word for you is, everything God has promised for your life will come to pass. As He has said it, so shall it be. Stay encouraged.
Be confident that in the times of trouble the Lord will be your relief and encouragement. He will renew your strength. He will give you peace of mind and restore your joy. He has promised to sustain you. He will resuscitate your hopes and dreams and awaken your motivation and drive to continue to press on. Hold on, keep the faith and love Him no matter what or who comes or goes in your life. Though you may go through hard times, you will come out on the other side, better than you entered in. It does not matter how challenging the season or circumstances, God is still a promise keeper. Find comfort in knowing that God has not forgotten you, nor has He abandoned you. You are coming out of this storm and He will use your story to give Him glory. Your testimony will inspire others. Faint not and keep pressing forward. Stay encouraged.
It is easy to get so busy that we fail to seek the presence of God. Often we fill our lives with things, people and practices that do not represent Him or His will for us. It is time to silence the background noise in your life and focus on the Lord, so you can hear clearly and grow abundantly. Find the rest and strength that you need in the presence of the Lord. All that you desire can be found in Him. You don’t need any alternatives or replacements. Seek His face in prayer, meditate on His word and soak in His presence. Wherever you feel weak, know that His power will rise up within you and strengthen you. Even when you are feeling at your lowest, press into His loving arms.
There are two things we can be certain of, God will never leave us and He will always lead us. If you are feeling alone today, know that your heavenly Father is omnipresent. He is with you in your highs and your lows. He is the force behind you that helps you grow. He is the love that surrounds you and the grace that flows. When you woke up this morning and took your first breath, it was His goodness that he showed. When difficult times come you don’t need to run and hide. Just take His hand and let Him guide. He knows what is on your mind even when you can’t find the words to say. Trust Him and let Him lead the way. Stay encouraged. ADaubon

Procrastination is why many of our dreams are deferred. How many projects have you thought of and never started? How many things have you began, but never completed? Perhaps you feel as though it is too late or it will take too long for it to happen. Well my dear friend, time is going to go by no matter what. It’s what you are doing with your time that makes the difference. Don’t put it off any longer. Today is a good day to get started. And every day after that take one step closer to getting it accomplished. Let’s Go and Grow Together!
