Total RestorationSample

DAY 1 — A Word from God—RESTORATION In this devotional, I want to share a powerful word God recently gave me for you. He is not surprised about anything that's happening in the world or in your life. I believe this is His response to YOU. It will change your life for the better—forever! Several months ago, He gave me this word for you. That word was RESTORATION . He told me, “This is what I want you to expect. This is what I want you to say to My people to get them ready for the other side of this pandemic — the other side of this crisis: I want to restore everything that My people have suffered, everything My people have lost.” What is on the other side of all that’s happened this last year? What’s on the other side of all that the devil has tried to do—taking lives, destroying livelihoods, stifling opportunities, breaking down relationships, families, and households? I believe total restoration is on the other side. I love the promise of Joel 2:25, where God says, "So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten.” God says, “ I WILL restore TO YOU the years.” We've lost some time, haven't we? We’ve lost precious time. Precious people. Loved ones. Relationships. Businesses. Opportunities. The enemy has eaten, devoured, consumed, and destroyed so much. Jesus said in John 10:10, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” The devil is the thief who comes to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus says, "I have come that you would have life in abundance, to the full, until it overflows." This is the restoration of life God's going to give us— the restoration He’s going to give you. I want you to believe for this today because history is a story of loss and recovery. All of human history is a story of loss and recovery. This has been the devil’s modus operandi from the very start. We saw it in the Garden—the devil robbed Adam and Eve of their ancestry, their identity, their equality, their destiny, and their authority. They lost their connection to where they’d come from, who they were as God’s son and daughter, who they were in relation to one another, and this resulted in their feeling inferior and trying to control and rule over one another. They lost their destiny—walking in intimate fellowship with their Heavenly Father in the Garden, and they lost their authority—their crown of victory. Jesus has purchased it all back for us with His Own precious blood, so it's our time for TOTAL RESTORATION! Tomorrow, I am going to show you how to believe for it and receive it.
