In the midst of health concerns, economic uncertainty, and civil unrest, it's easy for our brains to succumb to fear and even despair. But as Christians, God calls us to be people of hope. No matter what is happening, we can choose the mindsets that move us from despair to hope and take the actions that shift us from surviving to thriving. 

Finding Hope in Darkness

Depression. Anxiety. Triggers and traumatic events take a mental, emotional, and spiritual toll on us. During these times seeking God seems difficult and redundant.

These devotions will equip you with the Biblical perspectives and practical tools you need to thrive.

All the Feels: Take Charge of Your Feelings (Instead of the Other Way Around)

How do you respond to suffering? By suffocating or surviving?  The theme for these guided biblical meditations is suffering.

Where Was God In All Of This?

We have many battles yet to fight but we do not fight to achieve victory; we fight from the victory already achieved on the cross. There are certain enemies whom God delivers you from, but there are other enemies He empowers you to have dominion over. Deliverance is what God does in you; dominion is what He does through you.

Fight Back

Trauma plays a major part in shaping our character.  Whether good or bad, there are lessons that we can extract from each experience.  Sometimes the effects can linger and negatively impact us and our relationships. Speaking from personal experience, trauma can also be used as a tool to position us for triumph. In this devotional, we will explore components that resonated with me as I navigated my own healing.

From Trauma to Triumph

We think that our thoughts can be kept in secret in our mind, but they cannot. The Bible makes this concept of the power of our thoughts simple: as a person thinks on the inside, this is who they will become on the outside. Thoughts produce a result. Our thoughts can make us ill or help us to heal. Jesus shows us how to become free from these things.

Weakness does not disqualify you from inclusion in the kingdom of God—instead, it is your invitation to enter. Our week together of studying God’s Word will also serve as a personal exploration of what it means to be “poor in spirit.”  I believe that sharing vulnerability in a safe place allows communion to happen and hope to grow again. What if weakness is one of our greatest strengths?

Glorious Weakness By Alia Joy

In our busy lives, suffering is considered an unwelcome guest. But could suffering really be a blessing from God? Because Christ suffered, we should also expect to suffer as we live for him. God will sustain us in our suffering and will use our suffering as a means to help us grow into the Christian he needs us to be in order to impact his world.

Growing Through Suffering

Fear has a way of changing our focus from God to the problems around us. Fear can change our confession from God’s promise to what we are feeling. All throughout the Scripture we are  commanded: “Do not fear.” The reason for not fearing is that we are not alone. God is with us; that’s the promise God gives us to combat fear. 

How to Overcome Fear

This plan will help you understand how each process we go through is not in vain but helps us to grow up and, consequently, help others to get out and be restored. 

Broken to Restore

According to the Gallup Poll millions of people around the world have had near-death experiences where they clinically died but modern medicine resuscitated them. Those who glimpsed the afterlife knew there was a border or boundary they could not cross and still return, so their stories should never form our theological framework of eternity. They only got a small glimpse and only Scripture can give the bigger picture.  But these testimonies help us answer God’s command to imagine Heaven—to set our minds on the magnificent promises of eternity in a way that changes how we live today. May this devotional help bring more of the peace and joy of Heaven into your life each day this week.

Imagine Heaven Devotional

Our lives are saturated with busyness, interactions, relationships, and social media. However, this doesn’t guarantee that we will never be lonely.

I hope that through your ups and downs, God would provide “Clarity In Unfortunate Events”.
