My parents are strong Christians, but I never truly was—at least not until my third year in school when I started my business. That journey opened my eyes to so many things, and I quickly realized that I couldn’t succeed in business without drawing closer to God.

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

May our lives never contradict His word.

And when God calls us to do something, may we have the heart and the zeal to obey.
Amen 🙏

I am rooting for you as you root for me.

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

May we all have the spiritual hunger to do exploits for God.

May people, through our lives, desire to get closer to Him.

May they come to understand, through us, that God is indeed love and that He loves His own.

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

Today is another reminder of God’s unfailing love for us, a love so deep that

He endured pain, suffered, and died just to reconcile us back to Himself.
So if you’re seeing this, never forget: Christ loves you. Truly and deeply🫂❤️

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

May we love others just as Christ has loved us , unconditionally, selflessly, and deeply.

And above all, may we grow in our love for God, for God is love.

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

This week, may we walk in divine alignment with God’s purpose for our lives.

May we be productive in all we do, and never allow laziness to find a place in us

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

May we not miss our season or find ourselves in places we were never meant to be
…simply because we drifted.

This is your reminder to rise again.
To pray. To grow. To guard your spirit.

I’m rooting for you as you root for me.
Let’s keep going. For real this time. 🙏🏽🔥

You know your prayer life isn’t where it used to be.

You know you should wake up to pray at night…

But you’re tired. Unmotivated.
And somewhere deep down, you’re wondering:
m“Why do I have to fight so hard just to succeed?”
“Maybe I should just relax…”
I get it.

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

We slowly return to the habits we thought we had overcome.
We start doing things we once left behind.

Yes, Jesus is still with us, even when we mess up.
But may we never get so comfortable that we take His grace for granted.

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

I’ve been there too.

But here’s the truth: we’re already in this world.
And whether we like it or not, we have to rise and fight.
God has done His part. He’s given us power.
But we still have to do the work.

Life isn’t easy.
And the moment we start to slack…

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

A heart free from hatred, bitterness, or the need to bring others down.

May we walk in love, live the life God has called us to live,
And experience a renewed and transformed life, inside and out.

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

Today, I pray that we receive a heart that truly loves others.

A heart that sees the good in everyone and genuinely wishes them well.

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

If you’ve ever felt unsure about this too, you’re not alone.

I don’t have it all figured out yet, but I’m trusting that as I grow in Him, I’ll also grow in understanding the authority He’s already made available to me.

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

Do we have to reach a certain level of maturity in Christ before we can walk in authority?

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

not something we earn, but something we grow in understanding of?

I’m still learning, but maybe maturity helps us become more confident in using what we’ve already been given, not that it’s withheld from us until we “qualify.”

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

But then again, there are verses like Luke 10:19
"I have given you authority… over all the power of the enemy…”
And I wonder, did Jesus mean that for only the mature? Or for anyone who believes?

Could it be that the authority is already given the moment we come into Christ?

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

Like maybe I need to get to a certain level first a deeper level of consistency, or a place where I am no longer struggling with certain things.

Because how can someone who still falls short stand boldly and take authority in prayer?

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

I have been thinking about this lately.
Like... do we have to be deeply rooted, fully disciplined, very prayerful, and spiritually “strong”

before we can truly operate in the authority that Christ has given us?

Sometimes I feel like I don’t qualify.

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

So may we be present.
May we be sensitive.
And may we be ready, even when we don’t feel ready.

Because some seasons only come once.

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

May we not miss our season.
Not because God didn’t speak,
but because we were too distracted to hear.

Not because the door wasn’t open,
but because fear kept us from walking through it
Not because the opportunity wasn’t there, but because we were waiting for perfect condition

[Struggles of a christian lady @OfChristian1]

Seasons come, sometimes quietly, sometimes suddenly.

And the saddest thing isn’t that they end...
It’s that they passed and we didn’t even know it was ours.
