Wednesday, 17th June, 2026 TITLE: “Restored by Grace.” ANCHOR SCRIPTURE(S) Jeremiah 30:17 (KJV) “For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD; because they called thee an Outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after.” 1 Peter 5:10 (KJV) “But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.” QUOTE TO REFLECT ON “God may allow a season of testing, but He has already prepared a season of restoration.” DAY'S REFLECTION Life sometimes leaves wounds that are not visible to the eyes. There are wounds caused by disappointment, rejection, betrayal, failure, loss, or prolonged struggles. Such experiences can make a person feel forgotten or abandoned. Israel experienced a season when others viewed them as outcasts with no future. Yet God declared, “I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds.” God's answer to their brokenness was restoration. Peter echoes the same truth. He acknowledges that believers may suffer for a while, but suffering is never God's final chapter. The God of all grace uses difficult seasons to strengthen, establish, and settle His people. Consider a tree damaged by a storm. At first, it appears weak and broken. Yet with time, nourishment, and care, it grows again and often develops stronger roots than before. Likewise, God can take the painful experiences of life and use them to produce greater strength, maturity, and stability. If you have been wounded by circumstances, discouraged by delays, or affected by past disappointments, remember that God is a Restorer. What people call impossible, He calls repairable. What others write off, He can rebuild. Your season of pain is temporary, but God's restoration can leave a lasting testimony. MEDITATION SCRIPTURE(S) WITH FULL VERSES Joel 2:25 (KJV) “And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.” Psalm 147:3 (KJV) “He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.” LIFE LESSONS (IMPLICATIONS) 1. God specialises in restoration and healing. 2. Difficult seasons are temporary, but God's grace is enduring. 3. Rejection by people does not cancel God's purpose. 4. Trials can strengthen character and deepen faith. 5. God can restore what seems lost or broken. EVERYDAY ACTION Thank God for His restoring power. Release past hurts into God's hands. Speak words of hope over your future. Trust God with areas that need healing. PRAYER Heavenly Father, heal every wound in my life and restore what has been lost. Strengthen, establish, and settle me by Your grace. In Jesus' name, Amen. DECLARATION God is restoring me. I am healed and strengthened. My season of sorrow is turning into joy. God's grace is sufficient for me. I am established, settled, and victorious. Devotion by Rev.
