Conversations: 5 Day Devotional Planنموونە

When we experience the beautiful exchange between listening and being heard, a shift starts to happen. We start to desire change and to break out of the bondage that has held us back for so long.

What is holding you back? What have you been desiring to see change?

Maybe it’s trauma from your past or generational cycles. Maybe it’s mental angst and torment that won’t budge and doesn’t seem to dissipate.

The desire within you for something different is a sign of surrender and evidence of the exchange God wants to do in your life. You do not have to stay captive to the chains of your past, the lies of the enemy, or by the difficult things you have endured.

Isaiah 61 says Jesus gives us “beauty for ashes,” “joy for mourning” and “praise for heaviness.” We can exchange every broken piece of our lives, every sorrow and sadness, every trouble and turmoil, for healing and wholeness through Him.

If your desire is for something different, His desire is to take away whatever is holding you down and give you new and better things in their place. And that shift you’ve been longing for can start today.
