Have you ever faced a moment when everything seemed to fall apart? Maybe a job opportunity didn’t work out. A door you prayed would open stayed firmly shut. A season you expected to bring growth and joy turned into one of waiting and frustration. In the moment, it’s hard to see anything good. But later, sometimes much later, you realize that what felt like a setback was actually God setting you up for something greater.

We often focus on what we should add to our lives—new habits, new commitments, new goals. But what if the key to spiritual growth isn’t just adding more, but letting go of what no longer belongs? Some things serve a purpose for a season, but if we hold onto them too long, they become a burden. Just like a gardener prunes branches for more fruitfulness, we need to clear out what is no longer serving us. What is God calling you to release?

Moses thought his staff was just a staff—nothing special. But in God’s hands, it became a tool for miracles. So often, we wait for something bigger before stepping into what God has already called us to do. But what if God isn’t asking you to wait? What if He’s asking you to use what’s already in your hands? Today’s devotional will challenge you to stop waiting and start trusting that when you surrender what you have, God can use it for something greater

Your words don’t just describe your life—they direct it. Proverbs 18:21 tells us that our words have the power of life and death, but have you ever considered how they shape your future? What you say to yourself, about others, and over your circumstances can either align with God’s truth or work against it. Before you speak today, pause and ask: Are my words leading me toward faith, hope, and purpose—or pulling me away?

Ever spoken too soon, reacted too quickly, or made a decision you instantly regretted? We’ve all been there. Wisdom isn’t just about knowing the right answer—it’s about knowing when to pause, pray, and seek God’s direction. Proverbs 4:7 reminds us, “The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding.” Before you make your next big decision, take a moment to seek wisdom. It just might change everything.

We all search for joy, but too often, we chase after things that leave us feeling empty. True, lasting joy isn’t found in success, possessions, or even perfect circumstances—it’s found in God’s presence. Psalm 16:11 reveals the secret: “You make known to me the path of life; in Your presence there is fullness of joy.” When we seek Him first, we step into the kind of joy that doesn’t fade, no matter what life brings. Discover how to walk in that joy every day.

Revival doesn’t just happen—it starts with expectation. When we come to church not just to receive but to bring our worship, our faith, and our hunger for God’s presence, everything changes. Don’t wait for the right song or the perfect message—come ready, and you won’t leave the same.

Our words hold incredible power. Proverbs 18:21 reminds us that the tongue can bring life or death. What we speak shapes our faith, relationships, and future.
