Your past—both distant and recent—may have been filled with pain, issues, struggles, and challenges. From the looks of things, you will never get past your past and embrace a brighter future. But in today’s inspiration, Dianna Hobbs says this is not the end of your story. God has better for you, and He is writing a brand new story!

It is not merely experience, man’s recommendation, or suitability for the job that secures a position for you. God’s favor is greater than all these things combined. When you are His choice, God opens doors for you and grants you access. He makes ways, moves mountains and increases you. God promotes you!

God is about to pour out His goodness, favor and abundance on you. But He’s not doing it just to fulfill your selfish desires. He wants to use your life as a platform to showcase His glory and to draw others to Him. This devotion will prepare you for how God will open the windows of Heaven and pour out blessings! Get ready.

Even when things don’t turn out the way you want them to, still trust God’s sovereignty. He is yet able to turn a negative into a positive, and change a worst-case-scenario into a best-case-scenario! Believe that He is in control and working things out in a way that brings Him glory, blesses you, and suits His purpose.

God has many unconventional ways and alternate routes to accomplish His purpose. If you are going through something and things aren’t panning out the way you hoped they would, today’s powerful word will help uproot discouragement resulting from unmet expectations.

There are seasons when things suddenly go haywire. Accidents occur. Traumatic situations manifest. You face setbacks. Challenges present themselves. But the good news is, no matter how unfortunate the circumstances, you are fortunate God, who is all-powerful, on your side. He can turn any situation around.

In today’s inspiration, Dianna Hobbs assures you that God is so strategic, meaning He has carefully designed and planned things to serve His awesome purpose. If you are in a season of uncertainty, where nothing makes much sense, know that the Lord is up to something great, and setting the stage to show up!

f you are going through something difficult, let go and let God. That isn’t always easy, especially when you feel like you need to be in control of the outcome. But when you let go and surrender, that’s when He will reveal Himself as Jehovah Jireh, a provider; Jehovah Raphe, a healer; Jehovah Shalom, your peace; Adonai, Lord and Master of all.

In today’s inspiration, Dianna Hobbs inspires you through the word of God to be confident that the Lord is able to do anything—even this thing—no matter how hard it may be. She says you can be fully confident that God is faithful and will keep every promise, and fulfill His word to you. Listen and be blessed!

In today’s inspiration, Dianna Hobbs says, don’t get down and out about what you see today. Sure, you may be in a low place, but you will come back from this. It’ll be alright. One thing I know about God is that He loves getting glory through the lives of those others count out. He specializes in elevating the lowly!

God, the greatest One of all, has chosen and anointed you, and loves you with an everlasting love. The next time you feel overwhelmed, inadequate, perplexed, or distressed by circumstances and situations, remind yourself that, because you have Him, you have all you need. Read this uplifting devotion and be encouraged in your spirit!

In today’s inspiration, Dianna Hobbs says, what you prefer to happen isn’t always best for you. Sometimes, the thing that upsets, annoys, disappoints, or frustrates you the most, is the very thing God is using to mature you, prepare you, and position you to receive greater and better. Listen to this inspirational podcast and prepare to be tremendously blessed!
