📖 SCRIPTURE
“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!”
— Isaiah 43:18–19 (NIV)

🕊️ DEVOTIONAL WORD
Familiarity can masquerade as safety.
But God isn’t recycling your comfort zone—He’s rebuilding your future.

What expired in your life wasn’t punishment—it was preparation.
He’s not asking you to understand every detail of the new.
He’s asking you to trust Him enough to walk into it.

Old patterns can't carry new assignments.
And delayed obedience, wrapped in fear, is still disobedience.

God isn’t calling you backwards.
He’s calling you into unfamiliar favor—a new thing that doesn’t require your past to agree.

⚓ ANCHOR WORD — N.E.W.
Navigate forward
Evacuate what expired
Walk into what’s waiting

🗣️ SAY IT ALOUD:
“God, break my addiction to comfort. I release old cycles and give You permission to lead me into new things—even when I don’t fully understand. In Jesus’ name, amen.”

🔥 POWER PROMPT:
What “familiar” thing am I holding onto that no longer aligns with the future God is calling me to?

CLOSING PRAYER:
Lord, thank You for disrupting what I thought was safe.
Give me eyes to see new territory not as danger, but as destiny.
Uproot my false sense of security and teach me to follow You into fresh assignments, new alignment, and divine fulfillment.
I trust You more than my past.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
