A good parent celebrates every amount of progress their daughter makes. They take pictures of her first tooth, her first step, her first day at school, her first date, her first day of college. They are always celebrating her life and progress. God is no different. He is a good Father, and He is always celebrating you. He rejoices over you with gladness, He quiets you with His love, and rejoices over you with singing (see Zephaniah 3:17).
Think about that for a minute. Almighty God, the creator of heaven and earth, is telling the angels in heaven, “Look at My daughter! Have you noticed how much she has grown? Look at her moving forward despite all of the pain she’s experienced. Look at her digging into My word to find out what I think about her. Look at My baby girl growing and learning how to trust Me.”
Pause for a moment and think about how far God has brought you. Think about how strong He has made you. See how your faith has grown in this year alone. You have come a long way, my sister, and if I could give you a fist bump, I would. You may not be where you want to be, but thank God you are not where you used to be. Praise God, you are not the woman you used to be.
Challenge: If God rejoices over you and celebrates you, what can you do right now to celebrate your progress?
Prayer: Father, I thank you for speaking to my heart. I receive your love. Thank you that I’m not the same person I used to be. Thank you for the progress you’re helping me to make every day. Help me learn how to celebrate and rejoice over my progress the way you rejoice over me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Thank you God for quieting my mind. I want to see me how you see me in Jesus mighty name Amen
Thank you Jesus for staying by my side and not letting go. You are a wonderful and marvelous savior!
Thank you Lord for loving me with a everlasting love celebrating me daily with your love Thank you FatherMonique
Lord, I raise a Hallelujah.

God thank you for quiet my mind so that I could hear and appreciate your words. Thank you for the pains and heartaches that I experience during my journey and You showed me how I did grow through those hard times and I’m Grateful for You, Your holy words and never ending love, spirit that annoying and strengthen me all the time.
Yes, God has brought me a mighty long way. I tell my self daily that I came to far to turnaround. I was just speaking to God last night and thanking him for how he got me through situations that I thought would hurt forever and send me into a depression. To know him and to know to call on him when you have noone else and he’ll be there is the best feeling in the world. I have grown , my faith has grown, and I owe it to My Father who has never abandoned me or turned his back on me. Thank you God and I love you so much! I praise you. I couldnt think of anything specific to pray for last night so I begin to just thank Him for all hes done. Thanked him for my daughter who loves him and reads her bible daily. I couldnt have ask for a better daughter . Its good to know God feels the same about me. Done some things but yet he still loves me .
Thank you. I would be one of those. Struggling through healing and moving forward in my life. His love is never ending and my source of strength. Your prayers were felt on this end.
Amen, I stand in agreement. And it’s funny… I was THANKING AND PRAISING GOD for my daughter the just the other day, saying how I couldn’t have a better one, how proud I am of her walking out her life for Him. She is so on fire for God and she pushes me everyday to keep fighting the good fight of Faith ❣️ God Bless

🦋 Thank you 😊 Papa. For helping me to growing and changing and Celebrating me 🤩.
Yes, He did speak to my heart through this Word. I am grateful that I am not the same person and that every day I strive to be like Him. I need to learn how to celebrate me more. Be bless Woman of God!!
I needed to hear this. I am healing from an abusive relationship and I have made some real priority changes in my life since I left. One of those is my devotional life and journaling. I started doing them again because he would always bug me about it, so I stopped. I am back into the word daily and reading and reflecting. How much that has helped and given me comfort and strength.
Your message this morning was like a huge hug from Him. Thank you!!
