*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.

PLEASE SHARE.

Happy June.

Freedom comes from discipline
... Happy New month friends....

Good day my people happy new month Mey Good luck comes to US all in Jesus Christ name amen

I was driving with my wife @nedokuti in the car, on our way somewhere, thinking about how funny life’s excesses can be. I asked her to play a rhythmic pattern on the passenger side dashboard as I started writing the song in my head, and I enjoyed the direction it took. The result is a lively and groovy song with satirical lyrics about how easily we can lose ourselves in our vices. The second verse reflects on this theme and aims towards growth and progress.
“Life As We Know It” short visualiser is also out on YouTube.

I’m happy to announce my sophomore album “Chapter 1: Where Does Happiness Come From?” Is coming out July 25th, 2025. Presave using the link in bio

How to Stop Yelling and Be a Calm Mom

Yelling happens to many parents—but staying calm helps both you and your child feel safer and happier. Here’s how to build calmness into your daily parenting:

Take deep breaths before reacting
Pause and count to 10 when frustrated
Step away for a moment if you need to cool down
Use soft, gentle words instead of raising your voice
Practice empathy—try to understand what your child is feeling
Set realistic expectations for yourself and your child
Try mindfulness or meditation daily
Ask for support when feeling overwhelmed
Remember: Calm parents raise confident kids
Celebrate small wins in your parenting journey

Calmness is a habit you can build—one moment at a time. You’ve got this!
