*Here are some Bible verses about faith ¹ ² ³:*

- "Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see." (Hebrews 11:1)

- "So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ." (Romans 10:17)

- "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9)

*THE RESTORER'S DAILY GUIDE*

DATE: TUESDAY 3RD JUNE 2025

THEME: *REWRITE YOUR OWN STORY*

MEMORISE
1 Chronicles 4:10
And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

READ
Psalms 34:1-6
I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.
I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.
This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
*All things are possible with God.*

MESSAGE
Everyone has a story of how situations and circumstances have affected their lives. But we all can rewrite our own stories. It doesn't have to end up the way it started.

We don't have to allow negative circumstances to determine our fate.

*You can either choose to become a product of your pain or to make a gain from your pain*

Those who allowed themselves to become products of their pains, end up as bitter people who bleed on those who were never part of their pains.

A wise man once said; "Most people do not loose their lives all at once, they lose it gradually to defeats, disappointment, failures, bad times, etc; one day at a time by allowing unpleasant situations and circumstances define and dictate their lives. One bad day turns into two, two days turn into a story. If you do not confront your bad day, the day will construct a version of you that is smaller than your potential and original destiny from God."

A bad day is a visitor not a resident, you are supposed to be in charge of your life and you determine who stays not the bad issue.

Neuroscience has shown that the human brain wires itself on repetition. If you allow one bad moment to linger beyond the moment, your brain will adjust to it and begins to expect its repetition and continuity.

Gradually your brain becomes loyal to your lowest moments, and if unchecked and unhindered, it becomes your biography, unless you disrupt the pattern and create a new one.

So, interrupt the negative spiral, stop the lifespan of the negative situation.

Never allow a bad day become your life.

You can change the rhythm of your life. You can change your story.

The power is in your mind and in your mouth. Choose what stays in your mind and heart and make your mouth confess only what is in alignment with God's word and purpose for your life. (Philipians 4:8)

Jabez, in today's memory verse, decided to rewrite his own story, and that is why we are yet reading his story today.

In today's text, the writer also had a testimony of a changed life. He sought God and was heard. Some looked up to Him, and their faces were changed, and they knew no shame.

You, too, can rewrite your story today by taking some vital steps of faith in prayer and supplication with fasting.

God is faithful and will turn around your situation for good.

All things are possible with God, give Him a chance in your life today, and you will smile again in Jesus' name.

Shalom, maranatha!

ACTION STEPS
1. Surrender your life to Jesus Christ today and be saved.
2. Take a day off to seek God's face with fasting over that issue.
3. Pray until something happens for good.

PRAYERS
Dear heavenly Father, Thank you for today's devotional guide. Oh God of restoration, visit the root of every issue of frustration in my life and make me free in Jesus' name.

REMEMBER
*All things are possible with God.*

AUTHOR: JEDIDIAH DAVID

DAILY READING: Ezekiel 17-18, John 14-15.

HYMN
Blessed assurance — Jesus is mine !
Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine !
Heir of salvation, purchase of God ;
Born of His Spirit washed in His blood.

This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour all the day long ;
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour all the day long.

2
Perfect submission, perfect delight,
Visions of rapture burst on my sight ;
Angels descending, bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.

3
Perfect submission, all is at rest,
I in my Saviour am happy and blest ;
Watching and waiting, looking above,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.

My Pearl,
From the very first moment, you made me feel seen — truly, deeply adored. And now that we’re married, it’s even more surreal. I find myself smiling at the littlest things: the way your eyes soften when you look at me, the sound of your laughter echoing through our shared space, the warmth of your arms wrapped around me at night.

Being your partner feels like stepping into the most beautiful chapter of my life. You have awakened in me a version of love I never knew existed — the kind that dances in the quiet, thrives in the ordinary, and sings even on the rainy days.

This is my humble attempt to say thank you — thank you for choosing me, for cherishing me, for making me feel like I matter every single day. I hope to be all of that and more for you.

You are my heart’s favorite rhythm, my soul’s safest place. And with every breath I take, I promise to love you in ways both grand and subtle — to adore you endlessly, fiercely, and faithfully.

Yours, in every heartbeat,
Hubby

Stop telling yourself that you’re ****** for loving them!
Stop regretting the fact that you loved them so deeply, that you unconditionally gave them your entire heart, your soul, your mind, your body, and everything that you had to offer.
That’s exactly what you’re meant to do!
You were meant to love them deeply.
You were meant to fight for your relationship and for the person you loved so dearly.
What they chose to do with your love has absolutely nothing to do with the value of your love.
There is nothing to regret, and there’s no reason to keep telling yourself that you were ****** for not seeing things sooner.
You weren’t ******, you loved and trusted someone in good faith who should have loved you back.
You weren’t supposed to be looking out for things.
You were supposed to feel safe and loved.
What they did has nothing to do with you.
What they did comes from who they were long before you came along, and they chose not to deal with it.
So take all of the hurt and all of the pain, heal from it but learn the lessons from it because you’ll be better for it.
Sometimes the reason things don’t work out is because you deserve so much better than what you were settling for; and you now get to take the beautiful new person that you’re becoming as a result of everything you’ve been through, and give that to someone who truly deserves your heart.
You get to give the best version of yourself to someone who actually appreciates you, who appreciates how hard you've worked on yourself, and to someone who matches the effort and love that you give to them.
Someone who knows how to love properly, and who’s ready to give love from a place of love.
Someone who sees your worth for not only who you already are, but who you’re also becoming.
So don’t let the person who lost you steal that away from you.
Feel proud of the love you gave.
Feel proud that you gave them your soul, and that you loved as deeply as you could have because that says more about who you are as a person, and that’s something to be truly proud of.
Feel proud about knowing that the one who treats you right will receive all of you.
Know your worth and never forget how valuable your love and presence really is.
You weren't ******, you did exactly what you were meant to do because what you gave was a reflection of your character and the values that you place around love

How to get the best out of life:. Well, face your past without regret, handle your present with confidence, prepare for the Future without fear, keep the faith and drop the fear, do not believe your doubt and never doubt your beliefs. Life is beautiful if you know how to. live.

You’re Not Delayed—You’re Being Developed."
That storm didn’t come to destroy you. It came to reveal what God planted inside you.
Your name is being whispered in rooms your feet haven’t entered yet.
Stay faithful—your time is closer than it looks.
