Jeremiah 1:4-8

God’s kingdom operates with a distinct culture: beginnings are small, progress may feel slow, but the vision is always big. God doesn't wait for visible evidence before declaring purpose—He speaks the end from the beginning. He reveals where you are going even while you are still learning how to start. Over these three days, you will discover why God calls you to speak according to His promise rather than your present size, how faith-filled words shape belief, and how aligning your words with God’s vision helps you grow into the future He has already revealed.

How can the heroes of the Bible inspire us to greatness? Join us in this four-day reading plan as Kristi Krauss motivates us with Esther's risk-taking, Job's hidden treasure, Isaiah's hope for good, and Jeremiah's endurance of opposition. Don't be surprised if these testimonies transform your life.

God is always looking to use men and women for His glory. The Bible tells us that the eyes of the Lord go throughout the Earth looking for someone through whom He will show Himself strong (2 Chronicles 16:9). In the selection of the people He uses, God does not consider giftings or personal achievements, but availability and readiness of heart. Based on his book – “And they shall be called the Sons of God,” Tolu Oyewole teaches in this devotional plan that God is not looking for VIPs, but He is looking for SVPs – Servants, Visionaries, and Partners. You will learn, based on the examples of the heroes of the Bible, what it means to be a servant, to have a genuine vision and to partner with the Holy Spirit.
