TIMES OF REFRESHING DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org

DATE: WEDNESDAY, 15 MAY 2024

Furthermore, beloved, unexpected journeys challenge us to expand our limited perspectives and embrace new possibilities. Yes, it is so true. They invite us to step out of our comfort zones and into the realm of the unknown, where faith becomes our compass and courage our companion. In embracing the uncertainty of unexpected journeys, we open ourselves up to divine revelations and transformative experiences that shape us into the people God intends us to be.

SCRIPTURE: “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 (NIV)

REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: Ultimately, finding God in unexpected journeys requires a heart attuned to the whispers of the Divine and a spirit willing to embrace the unknown with unwavering faith. It is a journey of surrender, trust, and profound encounter—a journey that leads us ever closer to the heart of God. Stay Refreshed!

NOTE THIS: Encounters with the unexpected remind us that God’s plan unfolds in mysterious and marvelous ways.

RESPONSIBILITY: So, beloved, when unexpected journeys arise, embrace them with a heart open to wonder and a spirit attuned to the whispers of the divine. Trust in the wisdom of God’s plan, even when it leads you down unexpected paths and into unfamiliar territory.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, as we journey through the unexpected twists and turns of life, help us to trust in Your plan, even when it seems mysterious and beyond our understanding. Give us the faith to surrender to Your will, knowing that Your ways are higher than ours and Your purposes are good. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

PROPHETIC WORD: When unexpected encounters arise, may they serve as reminders of God’s divine presence and guidance in our lives. In the name of Jesus, Amen!

BIBLE TEXTS: Isaiah 55: 8-9, Proverbs 16:9
