From Bareness To Fullness

April 29, 2026

“He gives the barren woman a home, making her the joyous mother of children. Praise the LORD!” Psalm 113:9 (ESV)

Each of us has been faced with a situation that seemed impossible. After examining all our options and going to all the people we know to go to for help and advice, we are still left feeling that we are in an impossible situation and there is no way to make it out. It is only when we take our hands off the situation and turn it over to The Lord that He will help us navigate our way through and out of that situation. The Scripture reminds us that He gives the barren woman a home, making her the joyous mother of children. Praise the Lord! I encourage you today to remember that no matter how impossible something looks right now, keep your faith in The Lord. The Lord will take what was empty and barren in your life and make it fruitful and full. There may have been some things in your life that you would never think was going to happen, but after The Lord stepped in and took what was impossible and make it possible. Just because it looks hopeless to some, do not lose your hope in The Lord to turn things around for you, and when The Lord turns it around for you, you will be able to praise Him like you never praised Him before. No matter how it looks like right now, remember God specializes in the impossible. I thank The Lord that He did not allow my barren situations to stay barren, but He filled me with all that I needed. Since He has filled me, and I will praise Him every chance I have, this is why I know for sure, "It's My Year To Get My Thing From My God!"

Prayer:

Lord, thank you for making the impossible, possible for my life. Thank you for taking what was barren in my life, and turning it around and giving me fullness, hope and joy. Thank you Lord for all you do for me ,and I will praise you forever. I love you Lord. In Jesus Name Amen.
