Declare this over your life today: Better days are coming. You’ve been through storms that tried to break you, battles that left scars, and seasons that tested your faith to the core. But you’re still standing. And if you’re still standing, it’s because God is still working. God is still moving.
Not convinced? I get it, you’ve endured more than most people know. But that pain wasn’t wasted-God is using that pain to build something eternal in you. Remember what Joseph told his trifling Hermanos in Genesis 50:20, “You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.”
You see, those trials may have slowed you down, but they will not stop God’s plan. The tears you’ve sown in the dark are watering the breakthrough that’s coming in the light.
Romans 8:18 reminds us: “I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.” That means whatever you’ve gone through is infinitesimal in comparison to what God is getting ready to release. He’s already something glorious—and your time to shine is closer than you think.
So beloved, don’t let the enemy swindle your praise and recognize that it’s not time to give up. Like Journey sanded, ‘Don’t Stop Believing…..Hold Onto That Feeling…..’ Never forget that God’s glory is will always be greater than your grief. Better days are coming.
Pray with me:
Father God, thank You for the promise of Romans 8:18. Thank You for reminding me that the suffering I’ve experienced is not the end of my story—it’s the potting soil for something greater….something awesome! I declare in faith that better days are coming. Help me to remain patient, hopeful, and ready for what You’ve prepared. Let Your glory be revealed in and through my life. In Jesus’ name I pray, believe, receive, and praise. Amen.
