“looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross,
despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
Hebrews 12:2
There will be times when you are facing difficult situations in your life. It could be someone at work, a wayward child who doesn’t want to listen to you, a health crisis, a financial downturn due to losing your job, or someone who just cut you off in traffic.
My Declaration of Faith:
Today, I pause and remind myself: Jehovah Jireh is my provider. I don’t have to figure everything out or stress about how it will all come together. God already sees the need and has made the way.
My Declaration of Faith:
Some days, it feels like I’m just going through the motions: working, caring for my family, encouraging someone, doing what needs to be done. But today I remind my heart: none of it is wasted. God sees every single thing I do, even when no one else does.
My Declaration of Faith:
Today, I remind my soul that my life is not random; it’s divinely designed. Long before I took my first breath, God had already written every one of my days in His book. I matter deeply to Him. My story isn’t accidental; it’s intentional, full of purpose, and marked by grace.
My Declaration of Faith:
Some days, fear tries to sneak in quietly, through a thought, a headline, a social media post, or a sudden unknown. It shows up as worry, anxiety, and even doubt. If I’m not careful, I find myself spiraling into “what-ifs” and worst-case scenarios. But I’ve come to realize something powerful: fear is just faith… pointed in the wrong direction.
My Declaration of Faith:
Some days, the enemy’s voice feels loud, like a lion roaring and trying to drown out my peace. The threats come: “If you step out, everyone will see your past.” The lies creep in: “This road is too hard—you should quit while you can.” The accusations echo: “You’ve failed too many times. God’s probably tired of dealing with you.”
“He spreads out the northern skies over empty space;
he suspends the earth over nothing.”
Job 26:7
You may feel like you are out of control and that your life is in chaos. You may feel like you are on an emotional roller coaster and contemplating ways to try to get off this endless cycle of defeat and insecurity. On top of this, you are bombarded with negative news of school shootings, increased violence on the streets, the market crash, economic collapse, and wars in foreign countries.
“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion,
seeking whom he may devour. Resist him,
steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.”
I Peter 5:8-9
If you knew that a robber was about to break into your house and steal your property and try to harm your family, what would you do? You most likely prepared yourself with the appropriate security system to prevent him from breaking in.
“Jesus stopped and called them.
“What do you want me to do for you?” he asked.”
Matthew 20:32
Two blind men were sitting by the roadside outside the city of Jericho. They were waiting for the people to give them compassion for their daily donations. What they didn’t know was that their lives were about to be changed dramatically that day.
“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.”
