Family, Malachi 4:6 tells us that God will “turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers.” That’s not just about family trees—it’s about family ties. It’s about God doing a work so deep in us that broken bridges get rebuilt, and relationships that seemed too far gone get brought back together.

The devil wants division—between parents and kids, husbands and wives, even within God’s Church. But the Lord is in the heart-turning business. When His Spirit moves, stubbornness melts into grace, and anger gives way to forgiveness.

Maybe today there’s somebody in your life you’ve been distant from. Maybe words were said that can’t be unsaid, or silence has gone on too long. Friend, let me remind you—God specializes in reconciliation. He’s the Father who runs to the prodigal. He’s the Shepherd who goes after the one. And if He can bring wayward children home to Himself, He can mend the brokenness in your home too.

So don’t give up. Pray. Forgive. Take that first step toward reconciliation. Because when hearts turn, blessings flow—not just for your family, but for generations to come.

Isaiah 40:31 says: “But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”

Child of God, that verse is God’s promise to the weary, the worn out, and the one who feels like they’ve got nothing left in the tank. Waiting on the Lord doesn’t mean sitting still, twiddling your thumbs. It means leaning into Him, trusting His timing, and depending on His power instead of your own.

When you’re at your weakest, He gives fresh strength. When you feel grounded by the weight of life, He lifts you with eagle’s wings. When the race is long and your legs are heavy, He gives you stamina to keep running. And when all you can manage is a slow walk, He makes sure you don’t faint.

So don’t quit. Don’t give up. Wait on Him. His strength is unlimited, His timing is perfect, and His promise is sure. Your job is to trust… and His job is to carry you through.

Romans 12:12 says, “Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer.”

Child of God, that verse right there is a three-step survival guide for every season of life.

First, “Rejoicing in hope.” No matter what you’re facing, you can celebrate because your hope isn’t tied to this world. Your hope is anchored in Jesus Christ, and that hope doesn’t disappoint. When the storm clouds roll in, lift your head and remind yourself—God’s promises are still true.

Second, “Patient in tribulation.” Nobody likes the word patient. We want relief right now. But God uses tribulation like a refining fire, burning off what doesn’t belong and shaping us into what He designed. Patience in trials is not passive—it’s trusting that God is working even when you can’t see it.

And third, “Continuing instant in prayer.” That means don’t let prayer be your last resort—make it your first response. When life knocks you down, don’t waste time worrying. Hit your knees. Talk to your Father. Prayer doesn’t just change things; it changes you.

So today, rejoice in the hope you have, be steady in your struggle, and stay faithful in prayer. That’s how you keep walking in victory—no matter what’s going on around you.
