Title: You need to be Reassured.

-
Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
Deuteronomy 31:6 KJV
Devotion: In the life of a person there probably are several times when one was or will be in the valley of life. It's a time when you don't want to do anything, you just want to be left alone. The valley time is when the whole world seem against you, it is just impossible to continue because you're overwhelmed.
The mantle of leadership fell on Joshua when he least expected, left to him the conquest of Cannanland should be abandoned. Joshua was in the valley of life immediately before and after the death of Moses that he had to be reassured several times, initially by Moses in Deut 31:6 above and by God (Joshua 1:9) before he proceeded forward to conquer the promised land.
 I don't know your station in life now, you maybe on the mountain top, congratulations but if you are in the valley I also say congratulations. The reason is that God is right there with you to encourage you and to strengthen you to proceed forward up to the mountain top. He promised in Isaiah 41:10 that he will not leave you nor forsake you. He will also uphold you with His righteous right hand. All you need to do is come to Jesus, He will assist you to lift the burden (Matt 11: 28)  So why are you afraid.
Dearly beloved what is your thought on this. God will give you testimonies in Jesus name. Hallelujah.

Title: Divine Acceleration.

-
Genesis 41:40-41  Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou. And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt. And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt. Devotion: Have you ever felt like your dreams are taking too long to come true? Like you're walking a slow path while others seem to be racing ahead? Take heart—God is a God of acceleration! When He steps in, He can take you from waiting to walking in His promises in an instant.   Consider the story of Joseph. Sold into slavery by his own brothers, imprisoned for a crime he didn’t commit—it seemed like his dreams were slipping further away. But when God's appointed time arrived, Joseph was promoted from the prison to the palace in a single day! (Genesis 41:14-41). Years of waiting, hardship, and ...

Title: Wisdom from God.

-
Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV [5] Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; And lean not unto thine own understanding. [6] In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he shall direct thy paths. Devotion:  If you’ve ever gone on a trip somewhere you’ve never been, you know how important it is to have a map. Maps help us navigate the unknown areas ahead. Similarly, God’s Word helps us navigate through the unknown seasons of life. It reveals God’s wisdom, which can be essential in guiding our lives.  The book of Proverbs is filled with wisdom and knowledge that helps people live according to God’s purposes for their life. It starts by acknowledging that everything begins with God.   Because God is the creator of life, He knows what direction our lives should go. Our role, according to Proverbs, is to seek Him and trust Him. Trusting God means having a relationship with Him and believing that He knows what's best for us.   The more we trust in God and submit our lives to Him, the more we wi...
