EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE:

To ensure your connection with God’s word remains strong, prioritize making time for study and reflection, even amidst daily challenges, and don’t allow anything to hinder your time.

Avoid allowing distractions or other obligations to overshadow your spiritual needs, as this can hinder your understanding and growth. Pray for guidance to identify and overcome any obstacles that may be limiting your access to God’s word.

We must prioritize God’s Word and make time for regular Bible reading and reflection, even if it’s just for a few minutes each day. Create a dedicated space or time for your spiritual well-being, that is free from distractions and nothing hindering.

Consider joining a Bible study group or a “Women World Leaders- Leadership Connect” meeting, and take part in going a bit deeper in your studies.

Identify and overcome any hindrances and pray for God’s help in identifying any areas in your life that are hindering your ability to focus on His word, including addressing areas of sin, excessive worry, or other distractions that consume your time and energy. Be patient and persistent in your efforts to overcome these hindrances, seeking God’s strength and guidance along the way.

Embrace the Journey and recognize that your current responsibilities and challenges may also be opportunities for growth and learning, leading you closer to God’s plan for your life.

Trust that God is working in your life, even when things seem difficult, and that He will ultimately lead you to His desired path.
Focus on doing your best in all areas of life while seeking to glorify God, knowing that He will provide the strength and guidance you need. Put on the whole armor of God, as described in Ephesians 6:10-20, to stand strong against the schemes of the devil and his temptations and pray regularly, seeking God’s protection and guidance in times of spiritual warfare.

By actively prioritizing God’s word, identifying and overcoming anything that hinders you, just embrace the journey, and get your spiritual armor on, and be assured your connection with God remains strong and that you are continually growing in His knowledge and grace.
