Today’s Word: Let God hear it first.

Bible Reference: 1 Peter 5:7—”Give all your worries to him, because he cares for you.”

When you are confronted with overwhelming situations, it is normal for us to reach out to friends and loved ones to share our burdens and feelings. While this seems good, it is not always healthy and effective.

We need to develop the discipline of talking to God first. This is one way we make room for God’s peace in our hearts.

After talking to God about how you feel, it will shape how and what you discuss with others. Talking with God about anything must become more natural and soothing to us than talking to anyone—this is a great way to activate his peace in our hearts.

Today’s Prophetic Declaration:

I declare that I will not be distracted by any challenge or situation. By God’s help, I enjoy clarity and peace.
