“But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that
the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.”
2Corinthians 4:7
Do you know that God has deposited in you the very treasures of heaven? Do you know that there is a spirit of excellence placed inside of you? You may comment to yourself, “I don’t feel like I have anything today. My life is a shambles, and I have nothing to feel good about.”
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation;
old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.”
2 Corinthians 5:17
You may have considered yourself normal all your life. This is because you would think that you are a normal person who goes to a normal school. You may be a worker who goes to your normal job. You may be a mother who raises normal kids. You may be a father who thinks he is living a normal life.
My Declaration of Faith:
Today, I anchor my heart in this truth: I have God’s Word for it, and that’s more than enough. When Jesus was tempted in the wilderness, He didn’t argue or reason with the enemy. He declared, “It is written.”
My Declaration of Faith:
When life feels shaky and uncertain, when my emotions are loud, and my thoughts are scattered, I know where to go. I run to the Word of God. It’s not just a book I read; it’s the place I find peace, direction, and strength.
My Declaration of Faith:
I’m not walking through life alone; I have a God who actually wants me to run to Him. He doesn’t roll His eyes when I cry out. He doesn’t push me away or grow tired of my fears or tears. No, He welcomes me.
My Declaration of Faith:
There are moments when life feels too heavy, when I’m mentally drained, emotionally bruised, and spiritually tired. Some days, I don’t even know where to turn or who to talk to. I’ve felt broken, rejected, and unsure if I have what it takes to keep going.
My Declaration of Faith:
Today, I hold onto this truth: God’s goodness is not just behind me—it’s ahead of me, too. He’s not finished writing my story, and He has surprises prepared that I could never plan, predict, or earn. Just like Joseph, who went from the pit to the palace, God is able to turn seasons of pain into platforms of purpose.
“He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all.”
Romans 8:32
Today, do you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that God loves you? Can you fathom the depth of His love for you? The answer is that you are worth more to God than you can ever imagine.
“And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.”
Colossians 3:15
Probably the only thing that is dividing the Church of God today isn’t over religion but mainly over denomination. The Pentecostal may think it is uncommon for them to fellowship with the Baptist. The Baptists may think it is weird to hang out with the Catholics. The Catholics may think it is sacrilege to hang around with either of them.
“Are not five sparrows sold for two cents?
Yet not one of them is forgotten before God.”
Luke 12:6
There comes a time when we all feel neglected, abandoned, discarded, or forgotten by the people close to us. During these times, we can feel very much alone and vulnerable, thinking that we are worthless.
