Hello, lovely ladies! Welcome to another edition of Christian daily devotion for women. Today, we're going to talk about how to find joy in the midst of trials. Sounds impossible, right? Well, not with God on our side!
The Bible tells us that we can rejoice in our sufferings, because suffering produces perseverance, perseverance produces character, and character produces hope (Romans 5:3-4). And hope does not disappoint us, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Hol
Do you sometimes feel like nothing is going your way? Do you struggle with doubt, fear, or anxiety about the future? Do you wonder if God has a plan for your life, or if He even cares about you?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this morning devotion is for you. God wants you to know that He loves you, and that He has good things in store for you. He is working behind the scenes, even when you can't see it, to bring about His perfect will for your life. He is faithful, and He w

8 This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe and do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success.--Joshua 1:8, AMPC
"Meditation" is not some super-spiritual occultic practice. It's simply thinking about something over and over, and saying it. We can take what our tendencies to worry, and convert them to po

13 If we are faithless [do not believe and are untrue to Him], He remains true (faithful to His Word and His righteous character), for He cannot deny Himself.--2 Timothy 2:13, AMPC
As the song "Way Maker" says, "Even when we don't see it, He's working...."! Hallelujah!
Only take heed, and guard your life diligently, lest you forget the things which your eyes have seen and lest they depart from your [mind and] heart all the days of your life. Teach them to your children an

Why do we worry?
For me, it just comes naturally. My parents were worriers.
My mind goes back to final days before Mom’s death. She was recovering from lung cancer surgery and we were making important decisions.
Plans for Dad to enter assisted living were finalized. At the age of 87, his health was declining; he needed care that Mom could no longer provide. His social security payments would cover monthly payments to a nearby Veterans group home.
Mom’s small social security check w
If God is first in your life, everything can come into order. If God is not first in your life, nothing can come into order. And when I say everything comes into order, I don't mean that we won't have problems or tribulations. Jesus said,
"You will have tribulation, but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."
I don't mean that you won't ever have any problems, because we live in a fallen world. But what I do mean is that everything in your life can come into order, and you can walk through
Genesis 12:1-3
"[1]The lord had said to Abram, “Leave your native country, your relatives, and your father’s family, and go to the land that I will show you.
[2]I will make you into a great nation. I will bless you and make you famous, and you will be a blessing to others.
[3]I will bless those who bless you and curse those who treat you with contempt. All the families on earth will be blessed through you.”
One desire of any serious mind is comfort and comfortability. It is not

Private Bert DeBrute, a member of Lance Corporal Carlos Ruiz’s Marine squad, was shot in the back during the Marine’s push to take the city of Fallujah, Iraq from foreign fighters. Before his evaluation, Private DeBrute requested Lance Corporal Ruiz pray for him. Almost as soon as Private DeBrute had been removed for medical treatment, the word had come back that he had injuries that left him paralyzed. Lance Corporal Ruiz recalled he had promised his subordinate that he wo
The Bible admonishes us as Believers to trust in the Lord. Do you know why? Because even God knows that it is hard to trust without knowledge, information or physical evidence. However, true faith is tested when you do not understand the full scope of things, but choose to believe that someone has your best interest at heart. Trust is a choice. One that is made actively and not passively. The same way a man would accept to be joined to a woman forever, knowing full well that this woman can chang
If we're being honest, we would realize that many things are fighting for our attention. In life, we have relationships to manage Financial burdens, to settle businesses, to work on career goals, to meet and other things that draw our attention. Unfortunately, many of us put God in the last place on our list of preferences. We don't spend enough time with God. We try to use God to satisfy our other needs, but this isn't meant to be, while those other needs are valid and need our attention, God
Today's topic is relatable and applies to so many youths at this age. Let me share the story of one of my closest female friends. For this illustration, I'll call her CL. So CL is a vibrant young lady who passionately loves God. She sought to please him and live in his love for her. She had a male best friend, who also loved God extremely. CL, and her best friend would challenge themselves, go on evangelism, win souls and get them saved and disciplined. They did so many great things togeth
An interesting quote by Avijeet says,
Never stop when you are tired. Stop when you are done, winners are not those who always win, they are the ones who always fight.
You must realize that the devil is not fighting you because you are weak. He is fighting you because you are strong. The devil is clever and knows better than to waste his efforts on nothing. So when the devil throws darts at you, it is because you have something on your inside that he needs. You have something on your inside that
It is difficult to understand that pain has a purpose when you are the one suffering it. It is very easy to say it to someone else, but admitting it to yourself might be quite challenging. Despite this, the truth is that your pain has a purpose. The truth is, God is aware of the pain you are passing through. He is aware of the difficulties you are faced with and while he does not enjoy seeing you in pain, he is working out. Even the pain for your good, in fact, some of those circumstances only o
In our world today, everyone uses the word love, even when they don’t understand what love is. For example, we see two women having sexual relations with one another, some going to the extent of even getting married under the name of love. That isn’t love; it is an abuse or misrepresentation of love. A man bruises and batters your face on a regular basis and you say he loves you, he just has a problem expressing his emotions. The further away we are from God, the easier it

God, loves and takes care of his children. He always has good plans for us. Jeremiah 29. Verse 11 says...
For I know the plans that I [a]have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for [b]prosperity and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
God also knows that we live in a world where we can become easily distracted by things and even other people. He created us to be relational beings. This is why we are always around people and can't live purposely in isolation. Because of this, he
