April 23 Devotion - From Start to Completion

‘being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;’

وَلِي ثِقَةٌ فِي هَذَا الأَمْرِ بِالذَّاتِ: أَنَّ الَّذِي بَدَأَ فِيكُمْ عَمَلاً صَالِحاً سَوْفَ يُتَمِّمُهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ.

Philippians 1:6

I have learned that God is more interested in changing me than He is in changing my circumstances.

I have learned that if I choose to be upset because things are not happening my way, or I choose to be discouraged because things are not happening according to my preferred timing; then I will suffer the consequence of just staying where I am and not advancing.

I have learned that if I want to see God open new doors, I have to be the best I can be right where I am, and allow God to work in me.

I have learned that I need to have faith that God will complete what He started in me.

I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:

Abba Father, thank You for Your abundant blessings. Reveal to me Lord what You want to change in me and strengthen me to align myself with Your plan. Teach me Lord to realize that when I encounter difficulties while following Your plan, it means I still need more change from within. Lord, strengthen my faith and make me confident that You will complete what You have started in me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Jesus Loves you

In Him,
