Welcome back to Leading and Loving Life with Jesus! Today, we continue our journey through the powerful devotional series, "100 Days of Believing Bigger" by Marshawn Evans Daniels, shared by McCall Dwyer. On Day 35, we delve into the concept of "Elevated Destiny," exploring how change is an inevitable part of our walk with God and how we can trust Him through these transitions.
In today's devotional, Marshawn Evans Daniels highlights that change is inevitable, even when we aren't ready for it. Change is God's specialty, and He always has a plan. The key question is whether we trust Him with the changes that need to take place in our lives. Are we so focused on our own path that we fail to recognize and embrace the goodness of God, allowing for the necessary disruptions and course redirections?
Key Scripture: "From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I." - Psalm 61:2 (NIV)
As we conclude Day 35 of "100 Days of Believing Bigger," let's commit to trusting God with the changes He brings into our lives. Remember, change is a part of His divine plan to elevate our destiny and bring us closer to Him. Embrace the goodness of God and allow His course redirections to guide you to the rock that is higher than you.
