Waiting on God for breakthrough can be hard sometimes and can test our faith. As women of God, we must resist the temptation to stop believing God for everything He says He is and everything He says He can do.
In this post, I want to share a verse that will help you hold fast to your faith. As you wait for an answer to your prayer, healing, financial recovery, a change…remember what God’s Word says for encouragement and support.
They Shall Inherit The Land
Psalm 37:8-9
' Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices! Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath! Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil. For the evildoers shall be cut off, but those who wait for the Lord shall inherit the land. '
God wants you and I to be still in silence as we wait for Him. He also wants us to embody the fruit of the spirit, patience. No matter what we are waiting on God for, we should not become frustrated. Anger and wrath at others will only lead to transgression.
Suppose you are waiting for a financial breakthrough. Psalm 37 tells us not to “fret” over those who carry out evil. God doesn’t want us to worry or be anxious while we wait. For example, you may notice those who carry out evil boast of their great wealth. It may be discouraging to hear and see this, but scripture tells us to not become angry at these things. We are reminded that evil doers will be cut off and believers will inherit the earth. We will receive provision and peace in due time.
Encouragement For Today
My sister, don’t; worry or be anxious about what you are waiting on God to do. He’s got you and has not forgotten you. Don’t envy others, but instead focus on trusting God to be the God who can make the impossible possible. Quiet yourself and release your frustrations. God is for you and has not forgotten you.
Prayer
Dear God,
Help me to wait patiently for you. You have promised to never leave me nor forsake me. God, nothing is impossible for you. I’m believing by faith that what you will provide will be the best for my circumstance. You know all things and I praise you for knowing what’s ahead and protecting me. Help me to not become frustrated by others or envious of others. Teach me to acknowledge and be grateful for all you have done for me.
In Jesus’ Name,
Amen

John 1:5 ESV “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”
Divine Comfort
I am comforted as a believer knowing that Jesus, The Light, is never overcome by darkness.
Are you tired of living under a dark cloud? Are you desperate for hope and deliverance from the bondage brought on by the wrong decisions that you have made?
The Sin Dilemma
When humans are born we are born into sin. We walk in darkness as long as we are walking life without Jesus as our Savior. Jesus is the light who shows us that we are sinners in need of salvation. We need redemption from a life and existence in darkness.
Sin is present and constant in our world. The good news is Jesus prevents believers from walking through the darkness brought on by sin. Jesus, the Light is truth. He purifies our thoughts so that we can be aware of right from wrong. Jesus shows us how to live based on the example he left for us in the Gospels.
When we become saved, the darkness of sin no longer has a hold over our lives. We are redeemed from the curse of sin (death) and are free to walk in the light. We see the presence of God when we no longer walk in darkness but in light. Knowing God’s presence brings us hope, strengthens our faith, and shows us His gifts of grace and mercy over our lives.
His Sacrifice Matters
Jesus was persecuted and crucified by enemies who were of darkness. But, as John 1:5 says, “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” In His death, Jesus was glorified and victorious in His resurrection.
This selfless sacrifice provided us a way out of darkness through salvation.
Here’s Why You Should Become A Believer In Jesus
Becoming a believer today will free you from sin’s darkness. You can begin to walk in the light as your life is transformed by the renewing of your mind. Life may not always be easy, but you will have the hope found in your savior moving forward.
Becoming a believer today gives you the knowledge of God’s presence through the Holy Spirit living inside of you.
And you also have the promise of eternity with God according to John 3:16 which says,
“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.”
15 “That is why they stand in front of God’s throne and serve him day and night in his Temple. And he who sits on the throne will give them shelter. 16 They will never again be hungry or thirsty; they will never be scorched by the heat of the sun. 17 For the Lamb on the throne will be their Shepherd. He will lead them to springs of life-giving water. And God will wipe every tear from their eyes.”
3 “I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, “Look, God’s home is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them. 4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever.””
Choose this day, the light or the darkness.

It’s Faithful Friday! Today I am discussing praising and worshipping God despite the stress, sadness or depressed state you may be in. I share how I am able to give God glory when times are tough. Let’s praise him anyhow!
To God be the glory for the great things that He has done! In this week’s episode I am discussing how choosing a life verse has changed my personal life and addressed my struggle with fear. I also give great advice on how to find your very own life verse (scripture) in the Bible.
To God be the glory for the great things that He has done! In this week’s episode I am discussing who you should trust the most when your life makes no sense. My sister, if you carry worries and anxieties because of your life circumstances, you are not alone in what you are facing. God himself is your number one supporter. Let go & trust God!
Life hurts and doesn’t make sense sometimes. Would you agree?!
At the beginning of my bipolar disorder journey, nothing made sense to me. I had some successful years in high school which, continued through my sophomore year of college. I was always involved in leadership and supporting the students at my high school and college.
Then I turned 19 and, things began to unravel months later. Anxiety and depression began to transform my way of life and thinking. Things like having to leave college and move back home did not quite make sense. After all, I had worked so hard to get to college and be involved.
So life continued through the years and, still nothing made sense to me. By that I mean, I did not understand why God allowed anxiety, depression, and bipolar to happen to me. It derailed many of my dreams and, I would constantly ask God why me. “Why did my life have to get so screwed up?”
Today I am 33. A few years ago God mended my brokenness and, I became closer to him than ever before.
I want you to understand that when nothing makes sense, you should always start with God. The trust that you feel you no longer have in your life, should be put in God.
Proverbs 3:5-6 says,
5 Trust in and rely confidently on the Lord with all your heart And do not rely on your own insight or understanding. 6 In all your ways know and acknowledge and recognize Him, And He will make your paths straight and smooth [removing obstacles that block your way].
This verse has been so meaningful to me and, I pray that you will carry it with you. No matter the circumstance, God has a plan for your life. This plan is real, whether it makes sense to you or not.
Wrap Up
So my encouragement to you is to release control.
Ask God Almighty to strengthen your faith in him as you trust in His plan. Be thankful for His will and allow him to “make your paths straight and smooth” throughout your life.
Trusting in Him has changed my life completely. I pray the same for you sister.
