Just like the children of Israel, I took the long way, half the time but nevertheless it was the longer way
My fears, doubts, weaknesses and unbelief caused me to delay the very thing God was trying to lead me into. I believed lies about who I was—and even more dangerous, about who God was.
I knew of Him, but I didn’t know Him.
And there’s a difference.
When you truly know someone, you know what brings them joy, what breaks their heart, what they care about. In that same way, I started building a relationship with God. I made time to talk to Him. I read His word with intention. I listened. I sat still. I started doing what He was leading me to do—and trust began to grow.
Through the wilderness, I began unlearning the lies and replacing them with truth. The truth that God is with me. That He is for me. That He is not a man—He does not lie or abandon or withhold love.
The truth gave me strength. Confidence. Clarity.
Now I live with the deep understanding that the power of the Living God lives in me. And if He is for me—who can be against me?
Even when life is hard, I remember this:
What we see is temporary, but the eternal is unseen. The pain won’t last forever. The struggle is part of the journey. Victory is possible—but it’s a choice.
And it starts with a decision that only you can make.
📖 Bible Verse:
2 Corinthians 4:18 (NIV)
So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
Greater is He that is in me than he who is in the world.– 1 John 4:4)
💬 Affirmation:
I no longer live by lies or fear. I walk in truth, confidence, and divine love—because I know the Living God is with me.
I just want to say how grateful I am for the Universal Church. 🙏🏾
There’s no such thing as a perfect church—because wherever there are people, there will be problems (right, Pastor/Bishop?). But what I’ve found at the Universal Church is real teaching, real understanding, and a place where the Word is preached with power and clarity.
None of us are perfect—we all fall short. But what matters is that we keep fighting for our salvation. That we seek to have the Spirit of God dwelling within us to strengthen us, guide us, and keep us until the end.
