God is with you

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post.


"Then Nebuchadnezzar said, “Praise be to the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, who has sent his angel and rescued his servants! They trusted in him and defied the king’s command and were willing to give up their lives rather than serve or worship any god except their own God.  Therefore I decree that the people of any nation or language who say anything against the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego..." [well, let's just say it wouldn't end very well for them]. Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego in the province of Babylon" (Daniel 3:28-30).
Did you get the last verse though, verse 30? "Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego..." Daniel 3 is about what happened with the 3 men who served God even though there were people who tried to stop them from serving Him. Because of jealousy and who they were, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were lied about, hated, and thrown into a fiery furnace, because they wouldn't bow down to a god they didn't serve. They wouldn't bow down to an idol, because they served the Most High God, but guess what? God was with them when they were thrown into the fire. And when they came out unscathed and unsinged by the fire, guess what else happened? They were promoted. Yes, by King Nebuchadnezzar. Look at God. Won't He do it? Nobody can stop you, because God is with you.

What God has for you, is simply for you and you can't be stopped from doing what it is you were born to do. Is anybody trying to block you? Is anybody trying to steal your joy? Is anybody trying to take credit for something you did? If any of those answers is yes, then God sees what's happening and He's going to vindicate you. Yes, He's going to give you back everything that was stolen from you. It doesn't matter what it is, He's going to give you the victory. That's right, He's going to exonerate you and lift you up, because of everything that was done to you in darkness. He's going to defend you, because of everything that was done to you behind closed doors. And He's going to protect you, because of all the lies that were told against you. Do you hear what I'm saying today? God sees you. He sees the pain you have endured at the hands of those who don't love Him. He sees the injustices that were plotted against you in hidden places. And like Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, you will come out of the fire untouched and you will shine more brightly than you ever have before. Yesssss, God wants to prove something through your life and He wants to set a table before those who slandered your name. This message is for you today. Receive it and walk boldly in it. Lift your head higher than it's ever been, because like Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego who stayed true to God, God has promotion, elevation, advancement, breakthrough, upgrade, and honor for you. All of that for you. Yes you, because God is with you.

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. When I was going through a dark time -- when I had nothing -- there was a certain person who helped me sometimes. She helped me whenever she basically felt like it, but she did help, and for that I'm appreciative. But, something interesting happened after I started growing out of my despair. Something interesting started happening when I no longer needed her for anything. And something interesting happened even though I remained kind and grateful towards. The interesting thing that happened was that she started hating on me. She started treating me differently. At first I was really bothered by it, because I thought she and her husband were nice people I wanted in my life. I liked that they had a sense of compassion and were interested in helping people who were down and low. That really appealed to me, because I was raised that way; my mother was raised that way; her mother was raised that way, and it goes back to as fa

Protecting My Peace - Day 96 - Disciplining Ourselves for Next Level Greatness

Click to listen to today's podcast episode. When it comes to next level greatness, we have to know that applies to us, not just everyone else. Do you know what God has for you? Do you? He has GREATNESS for you. Yes, YOU -- all of us. It's about doing what you can do and only you can do. You are the only one with your DNA -- none of us. is the same Yet, even when we're feeling down, discouraged, and out, those emotions are only temporary. None of us has it all together. Sometimes I procrastinate and put things off when I know I should be doing better. Yet, I am not as diligent and disciplined as I can be sometimes. Like when it comes to working out, I delay it, because I don't like it anymore. And although I love reading the bible, I haven't been reading it as often as I should lately. Yes, I, Sharon, the Faith Coach, do not do the things I'm supposed to do when I'm supposed to do them. And that my dear friends should not come as a shock to no one. It certa
