Reflection on Today's Verse
God’s calling is never empty. If He has called you, He also intends to strengthen you for it. That means your life is not just about trying harder, surviving longer, or proving yourself worthy by your own effort. God is actively working in you—shaping your faith, directing your steps, and giving power for what He has placed before you.
So when you feel weak, delayed, or unsure, do not read that as proof that nothing is happening. Sometimes God’s power is doing its deepest work in quiet places—inside your endurance, your trust, your obedience, and your willingness to keep going. He is able to fulfill the work of faith with power, even when you feel like all you have left is a small yes.
Personal Prayer
Father, thank You for calling me and for not leaving me to walk this life in my own strength. When I feel weak, uncertain, or unworthy, remind me that Your power is greater than my limitations. Help me trust that the work You began in me is still moving forward, even when I cannot clearly see it.
Strengthen my faith today. Fulfill Your good pleasure in my life, and give me power to walk in the calling You have given me. Let my heart stay steady, my mind stay fixed on You, and my life bring honor to Your name. In Jesus Christ’s name, Amen.
