Word for the day: “God is still there for you.”
Joshua (NKJV) 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
Beloved Leaders,
So many of you have journeyed through the valley of the shadow of death of life so far this 2025. Yes, you started out strong with faith in God and believing that God is with you, and I want to remind you today “God is still there for you”. Although this season has lasted longer than you imagined, I sense today how your heart wrestles to hold on to your hope in the Lord. I want to encourage right now, do not despair, my friend. The Lord has not and will not leave you alone and will not forsake you, even for a second. I believe with all my heart the Lord is going to show you in the days ahead, that he is still here for you.
Where discouragement has set in, don’t get settled into it. Where you have felt trapped, you will know the release of openness and peace in your life like no other time. Looking back, you will see that new growth and maturity will fill your path where you once walked in darkness and confusion.
Take notice that the tough times have taught you to trust God’s leadership and to know his voice, his touch, and ultimately his character. Though you may have questioned many of the days and experiences you’ve endured, it is my prayer that you will see that God has always been your covering and your faithful companion.
It’s your time, and a new door is opening. Can you see it? Keep pressing into God and this season of your journey, for I believe God will be your comfort and strength. We’re almost there!
