“I will restore the fortunes of My people, and they shall rebuild the ruined cities and inhabit them.” – Amos 9:14a
Restoration is at the heart of God’s nature. He never leaves His children in ruins, and He never allows loss to be the final chapter. The Lord is able to breathe new life into places that have been broken down, forgotten, or destroyed. What you thought was beyond repair, He can restore. What you thought was too late, He can redeem. What you thought was lost forever, He can bring back in ways more beautiful than before.
He restores fortunes, lifting His people out of poverty and lack into abundance. He restores health, bringing healing and strength to weary bodies and broken spirits. He restores relationships, softening hearts and reconciling what seemed permanently divided. He restores hope, reminding you that His plans for your life are good, filled with a future and a purpose.
Notice the promise in the scripture: not only will He restore, but He will empower you to rebuild. Restoration is not just about what is returned; it is also about what God enables you to do with fresh strength. Where there was once rubble, He will help you to raise something beautiful. Where there was once shame, He will crown you with honor. Where there was once despair, He will replace it with joy.
No matter how impossible it may seem right now, the Lord is saying: “I am the great restorer, and I will restore you.” Believe Him. Trust Him. Take courage in His promise. What has been ruined will not remain ruined. He will restore, and you will rebuild, and you will inhabit the blessing of His faithfulness.
PRAYER:
Lord, You are the great restorer. You take what is broken and You make it whole again. You take what is lost and You bring it back in ways that are even greater. Restore my fortunes, restore my joy, restore my hope, and restore every broken area of my life. Help me to rebuild what has been damaged and inhabit the blessing You have prepared for me. In Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.
Good morning to you all. Have an awesome Monday.
