Bringing Daily Devotions to You!
We are commanded in Hebrews 3: 13 to encourage one another daily. That is and will continue to be the purpose of My Journey of Faith Ministries. We are a community of believers who are sharing our life stories with others for the purpose of encouraging and uplifting one another.
Meet Our Writers!
Here’s how the devotion ministry works.
Day by Day Devotions are written by ordinary women who love an extraordinary God. With only a handful of professional writers, most of our writers are women who simply want to tell their love for Jesus and how He has worked and moved in their every day life.
Each set of six devotions are posted on Monday thru Saturday on a theme the writer has been led by the Holy Spirit to write. These women have a passion for sharing the love of Christ and want you to be inspired, uplifted and encouraged by their words. Join our amazing community of women and don’t forget to sign up to be notified of a new post so you don’t miss a single devotion.
Sign up to receive the devotions here.
Would you like to submit to write devotions, go here.
You may still have questions. Contact Us here.
God bless you as you serve Jesus Christ wherever you may be at this moment. Share your story with others and encourage someone today.
