Wednesday Word: “Trust that God is a Good God”-Chrystal Evans Hurst

This Wednesday Word from Christian author Chrystal Evans Hurst is a reminder that we can indeed trust God with our lives, knowing that He is not trying to set us up for ultimate failure.

We also need to practice gratitude for what we have been blessed with, instead of focusing so much on what we don’t have, knowing that God has a reason for everything. We have to trust that God is indeed a good God Who knows exactly what He’s doing, even when we don’t understand.

GODFIRMATION: God Will Grant You Peace

This Godfirmation is probably one of my favorites that I need reminding of now and then. The God of all creation will grant you PEACE in the time of storms.

In the book of Philippians, the apostle Paul wrote to the church of Philippi, where Christians were not only being persecuted but also dealing with false teachers and fighting amongst each other. In Philippians 4:6-7, Paul encourages them to “not be anxious about anything,” but instead to let their requests be made known to God.” And His peace would guard their hearts and minds!

GODFIRMATION: God Does Not Change

At my church, I help out with the kids, and yesterday was my Sunday to help teach (alongside my sister Alexis) in Children’s Church during service. Our Student Life team has prepared lessons this month on the attributes of God, and this one preached to me yesterday! So much so, that I had to share it as a Godfirmation today.

One of the many attributes of God is that NO MATTER WHAT, He does not change which is highlighted in Malachi 3:6. And I personally am very grateful for that.

Praise Jam: “1 Blessed Thing”-Champion Life feat. Koryn Hawthorne

“All my life to my last breath, I choose the Lord ’til there’s nothin’ left. He will take you from darkness to light…make everything alright!”

Today’s Praise Jam is a song from Peacock’s original film “Praise This” starring Chlöe Bailey (very short synopsis: a rising singer competes in a huge choir competition amongst imperfect saints with a bunch of shenanigans in between). Gospel singer Koryn Hawthorne‘s incredible vocals are featured in today’s song, “1 Blessed Thing!”

This track is a mashup of “We’re Blessed” by Fred Hammond & Radical for Christ along with “1 Thing” by Amerie. The results? A full-on praise party because this is my SONG!

GODFIRMATION: God Is Omnipotent

I’m in awe a lot these days of God. Who He is and all that He’s done. Not even on a personal level, but just in awe of how He created this entire world we live in. When I’m out in nature, I always say to myself, “Wow, God is a true ARTIST!”

This Godfirmation is a reminder that God truly is omnipotent (all-powerful). His power was used to create the whole universe, split the Red Sea, knock down the walls of Jericho, calm storms, walk on water, and so many other incredible miracles. Why do we think that He needs US to make things happen?
