Weekly Declaration

As believers, we are God’s children. A child of God will reflect His character. Each week, we focus on one scripture while highlighting a declaration (Who God is) and affirmation (Who we are as believers).

This week’s scripture is:

Also God said to him: “I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall proceed from you, and kings shall come from your body.

Genesis 35:11 NKJV

Declaration

God is almighty.

Affirmation

I am a child of the all-powerful God.

Sometimes when God gives instructions, we hesitate. We fail to fully accept the vision or dream that He has given us. It’s the opposite of what we should be doing as believers. We should spring into action at the commands of our Heavenly Father. When God tells us to do something, we need to remember that we are, first and foremost, His children. He would not give us instructions if He was not going to ensure that they came to completion. This is a call for you to walk in purpose as a child of God Almighty.

A Prayer Starter…
Heavenly Father, You are God Almighty. You are all-powerful and give vision to the blind. Lord, thank you for giving me instructions to carry out Your will. I have hesitated in the past, but not anymore. Continue to grant me the strength to move in alignment with Your purpose. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

S. Enoch

Advent Reflections – Even in the Waiting – Day 2

I have been lost a time or two. Usually, because I got distracted and wandered off the intended path. Whatever sparked my interest was enough to cause me to lose sight of my intended destination. In this passage, we find Jesus as a child, so focused on His Father’s business that he wanders off from his parents. In my own life, I’ve found that I’m not prone to wander towards my father’s business….but away from it.
