Today, my child, I want you to reflect upon your history with me. Remember the ups as well as the downs. There were days when you were overcome by gratitude and joy but just as many days when you were downcast and heartbroken. Each of these days are precious to me as they collate the sum of our history together.
There is power in our shared history.
In the ups and downs you have been equipped and empowered for what is ahead. You have learned to trust me; you have learned whose voice you must listen to. The story of our shared history has power so today, reflect upon that history. Let it encourage and embolden you, for I celebrate our shared history. I celebrate who you have become both in the moments of light-hearted fun and crushing pain which we have shared.
I am invested in this journey with you; I am with you each step of the way.
So, reflect today on all that we have journeyed through together and be encouraged as you look ahead to the days set before you.
Activation: Take some time today to look back over your life. As you remember and reflect upon your history with God, ask him to highlight how he has equipped and transformed you over the years. Celebrate with him where he has brought you though and where you have experienced his faithful love. Ask him today what he celebrates about you and your shared history with him.
Psalm 103:1-6 (TPT)
With my whole heart, with my whole life, and with my innermost being, I bow in wonder and love before you, the holy God!
YAHWEH, you are my soul’s celebration. How could I ever forget the miracles of kindness you’ve done for me?
You kissed my heart with forgiveness, in spite of all I’ve done.
You’ve healed me inside and out from every disease.
You’ve rescued me from hell and saved my life.
You’ve crowned me with love and mercy.
You satisfy my every desire with good things. You’ve supercharged my life so that I soar again like a flying eagle in the sky!
You’re a God who makes things right, giving justice to the defenceless.
Zephaniah 3:17 (NLV)
The Lord your God is with you, a Powerful One Who wins the battle. He will have much joy over you. With His love He will give you new life. He will have joy over you with loud singing.
