THE MAIN THEME:  THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE

TITLE: BUILDING RESILIENCE AND PERSEVERANCE

The bible verse for today’s devotional is: James 1:12 (NIV)
 "Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him" 

Devotional:
Think of a seed planted in the soil. At first, it’s buried in darkness, surrounded by dirt. Yet, with time, water, and sunshine, the seed breaks through the surface, growing into a strong, flourishing plant. This is resilience—the ability to rise despite challenges—and perseverance, the determination to keep going even when it's tough.

Consider Nelson Mandela, who spent 27 years in prison fighting for freedom and equality in South Africa. Though the journey was long and filled with hardships, his resilience and perseverance changed his life and transformed a nation. He refused to let setbacks define him, remaining steadfast in his vision.

Life often presents its share of trials, from academic pressures to personal struggles. Building resilience means bouncing back after setbacks, and perseverance involves staying committed to your goals, even when the path is unclear. How do you do this? Trust in God, surround yourself with supportive people and learn from every challenge. Each step forward, no matter how small, is a victory.

 Resilience and perseverance are like muscles—they grow stronger each time you use them. Keep pressing forward, knowing every step brings you closer to your purpose. Face today’s challenges with courage and trust that brighter days are ahead.

Here are a few reflective questions:

1. How do you typically respond to challenges in your life?
2. What is one example of a time you showed resilience?
3. How can you stay focused on your goals, even when obstacles arise?
4. Who inspires you to persevere through difficult times, and why?

Let us pray:
 Lord, thank You for Your strength, which carries me through trials. Help me to build resilience in the face of challenges and to persevere toward the plans You have for me. Teach me to trust in Your guidance and never lose hope. Amen.

Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them, and live them:

• I am resilient and rise stronger after every challenge.
• I persevere with determination and trust in God's plan for my life.
• I see obstacles as opportunities for growth and learning.
• With God by my side, I can overcome any trial.

 Have a resilient and victorious day! See you tomorrow!

THE MAIN THEME: THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE

TITLE: OVERCOMING NEGATIVE CRITICISM

The bible verse for today’s devotional is: Galatians 1:10 (NIV)
"Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ." 

Devotional:

Jayden loved drawing and often shared his art online. While most people praised his work, one day he received a nasty comment: “Your art isn’t even good. Why do you bother?” At first, the words stung, and Jayden considered giving up. But then he remembered David, who faced criticism from his brothers before fighting Goliath (1 Samuel 17:28-37). David didn’t let their words stop him; instead, he trusted in God’s purpose for his life. Inspired by David’s story, Jayden prayed for strength, kept drawing, and even used his art to share encouraging Bible verses.

Criticism can hurt, but when you focus on God’s opinion of you, you can overcome negativity and fulfill your purpose.

Here a few reflective questions:

1. How do you handle criticism? 
2. Do you let it define you, or do you turn to God for your true identity?

Let us pray:

Lord, remind me that my worth is in You, not in what others say about me. Help me to rise above criticism and trust in Your plans for my life. Amen.

Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them, and live them

• I am who God says I am. 
• Criticism doesn’t define me; God’s love and purpose do.

Have a positive thinking day ahead, dear ones. I’ll see you tomorrow.

TITLE - MAKING WISE DECISIONS AMIDST PEER INFLUENCE

The bible verse for today’s devotional is: Proverbs 9:10 (NIV)
"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,  and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding."

Devotional:
Ava’s friends wanted to skip class to hang out at the mall. She hesitated because she knew skipping school was wrong, but she didn’t want to seem uncool. Before making a decision, Ava remembered the story of Solomon, who asked God for wisdom instead of riches (1 Kings 3:5-14). She whispered a quick prayer for guidance. Inspired by Solomon’s choice, Ava decided to stay in school and encouraged her friends to do the same. While a few teased her, others admired her courage, and one even thanked her for standing firm.

When faced with peer pressure, seeking wisdom from God can give you the strength to make the right decision, even when it’s unpopular.

Here are a few reflective questions:

1. When was the last time you felt pressured to make a decision? 
2. How can praying for wisdom help you handle similar situations?

Let us pray:

God, give me wisdom in every decision. Help me to stay true to You and not be influenced by the wrong voices. Amen

Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them, and live them

• I am guided by God’s wisdom. 
• I make decisions that honor Him, even when it’s hard.

Do have an amazing day. I’ll see you tomorrow.

"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."

Devotional:
Ethan was a natural leader at school and often found himself in the spotlight. One day, his classmates asked him to organize a party during exam week. He knew it wasn’t the right time, but he feared disappointing his friends. That evening, while reading the story of Joshua, who boldly declared, “As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord” (Joshua 24:15), Ethan realized he needed to put God first. He decided to skip the party planning and focus on his studies. Though some friends were upset, Ethan felt peace knowing he had chosen wisely.

When you put God at the center of your choices, He will guide and bless you, even if others don’t understand.

1. What does it mean to make God the center of your choices? 
2. How can your decisions today impact your future?

Father, help me to seek You first in all my decisions. Let my life honor You in every way. Amen.

Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them, and live them
