Breaking Through Barriers

Devotional

Have you ever faced a wall that seemed impossible to climb? Maybe it's a financial goal, a broken relationship, or a personal challenge that appears insurmountable. These obstacles aren't just random roadblocks - they're often divine opportunities carefully placed in our path. When we encounter these walls, our natural instinct might be to turn away or find an easier route. However, God's perspective on these challenges is radically different from ours. What we see as barriers, He sees as gateways to greater blessings.

Bible Verse

'For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,' declares the Lord. 'As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.' - Isaiah 55:8-9

Reflection Question

What 'wall' are you currently facing that might actually be God's way of preparing something special for you?

Quote God didn't hide it to keep it from you. He hid it to keep it for you. Because if it was easy enough, somebody else would go by and take it.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, help me see my challenges through Your eyes. Give me the courage to face the walls in my life, knowing that You've placed them there not to stop me, but to strengthen me. In Jesus' name, Amen.
