God is in the ✨midst✨
Sometimes we can get so caught up in our own crazy life that we forget everything God has truly brought us through. This morning I was reading 30 days with Jesus and it asked the question, “Has God ever reversed a bad situation for your good?” I instantly started crying because there are SO many things I could look back on and see where God literally turned it around for me. Things that happened to us that weren’t our fault or perhaps things that were our fault, God was still Godding and came through. I love that for us!! As you read this prayer today. I challenge you to shift your thoughts from the bad things that might be going wrong in your life and focus on what God has already done in your life. pull out a journal, press play on “goodness of God: Cece winans” and begin to journal what situation God reversed for you. #journaling #reflection #jesus #jesuslovesyou #godlovesyou #godstiming
It’s so easy to feel overwhelmed, isn’t it? Life throws curveballs, and sometimes it feels like we’re walking through a storm alone. But I've learned that even in the toughest seasons, God truly is in the midst. My journey to truly feel His presence wasn't always easy, but it started with a simple shift: LET GO LET GOD. It’s about releasing control and trusting that He is working all things for our good, even when we can’t see it. One of the most comforting truths I've clung to is knowing that 'God is with me' and 'God is within her; she will not fail.' This isn't just a nice thought; it's a powerful promise. When I face challenges, I remind myself that He hasn't left me. He's right there, guiding, protecting, and strengthening me. These are the 'God moments' that truly build our faith, making us realize we're never truly alone. Sometimes, God challenges us not to break us, but to build us up. Those moments where we feel pushed to our limit? That's often where we see His hand most clearly, turning something seemingly bad into something incredibly good for our growth. It’s in these moments that our faith truly blossoms, and we understand why it's so important to have faith in God. If you're looking for an anchor, the Bible is full of incredible promises that speak to God being with us. For instance, 'Fear not, for I am with you' (Isaiah 41:10 NIV) has been a lifeline for me. Or consider Jeremiah 29:11: 'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.' These scriptures aren't just words; they're living assurances of His love and provision. And remember, 'nothing is impossible with God' (Luke 1:37 NIV) – a verse that constantly reminds me of His power to provide all my needs. These bible verses about hope NIV are truly powerful. Want to increase your faith? It’s a journey, not a destination. Beyond reading scripture, actively practicing 'I trust You' and being 'grateful' in prayer makes a huge difference. I find that daily journaling, just like the original post suggested, helps me track His faithfulness. Writing down specific instances where I saw God work, or simply what I'm grateful for, solidifies my belief. It’s a tangible way to remember His goodness. When you pray, try focusing on specific psalms for spiritual warfare – not just against external forces, but also against doubt and fear within. Psalms like 91 or 23 offer immense comfort and strength, helping to increase my faith. This is how I get in the mood as a Christian, by connecting with His word and His presence. So, if you're navigating tough times, remember: God is truly in your midst. He desires to provide all your needs and give you hope. LET GO LET GOD, trust in His timing, and watch how He works wonders in your life. Keep praying, keep journaling, and keep believing. You are deeply loved and never alone.
