Daily Devotional for March 11, 2021

You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you. Isaiah 26:3

I have BEen coaching clients and helping friends lately, I had to REset and take time to coach and help myself. I lost my focus for focusing in on others. I was pouring out and not pouring into myself. I noticed that I was BEginning to feel frustrated and like things were at a standstill in my life, but I knew I had to REcover BEcause I was depleted; I was giving and not REceiving. I had to REmind myself that I’m REsponsible for my own happiness, and I have to REfocus my mind on Thee. The enemy wanted me to think that nothing was going on, but God REminded me that I needed to check my perspective. As the scripture from Osteen’s message today emphasizes, “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee” (Isaiah‬ ‭26:3‬ ‭KJV‬‬). When I thought about things as I centered on Christ, I could truly see the progress and not perfection of what was/is occurring in my life. When so much is going on around us and with others, sometimes we must steal away, and like a meme that was shared with me last night, we must protect our peace and BE in private.

Hosea 4

Let us not be destroyed for lack of knowledge...Hosea‬ ‭4:6‬ ‭NRSV‬‬. All we need can be found in His word.

REflection from Restoration: Deluxe Bible Plan

So my devotionals are a bit delayed BEcause the enemy knew God had more in store as I continue on this glorious adventure. I had just stated yesterday to my dear siSTAR that something has to happen. I was in a space where EVERYTHING seemed to BE on hold and I was in the waiting. This morning when I awoke it seemed as the enemy was right in my face ready to take me out...but God! I REceived confirmation and a message from God in more ways than one, and especially through Lecrae’s message this morning entitled “Keep Going”.🙏🏽 He said, “But God doesn’t leave us alone in the weariness. In Hebrews 12:1, the Scriptures say ‘since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses.’ You weren’t meant to run this race alone. And it is a race. Life is not meaningless meandering, but a purpose-filled sprint. You were made to run alongside others and to run with a fixed goal in mind, Jesus.” I’m so grateful for EVERYTHING GOD ORDAINS, and all that was orchestrated as a part of His plan this morning to keep me forward, focused and following in faith (and not fear) and favor towards what He has planned for me. TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!! 🙌🏾

Colossians 3:23

When we are focused on Christ and His plan for our lives, our work will never be in vain, but for our victory.🙏🏽💚🦋🌈

Trials to triumphs and tests to testimonies this Thursday, my friend.
