Create With Your New Season

INSPIRE Devotionals With Emmanuel Afiawari Thursday, November 20,  2025 Topic: CREATE WITH YOUR NEW SEASONS! Memory Verse: "‭‭Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place" - Job 38:12 KJV Bible Text: Genesis 1: 1 KJV 1. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. INSPIRATION: The law of first mention establishes that the first time a word or phrase appears in Scripture is important. The first mention often establishes a precedent, pattern, or biblical concept that occurs throughout the rest of the Bible. Drawing a cue from this, we seek to look at what God did in the beginning and what is expected of us subsequently. Scriptures point us to the creation story and suggests that God created the heaven and the earth in the beginning. It gives us an idea what we ought to be doing whenever new beginnings or new seasons set in on us: create! Make no mistakes about this, not all new seasons come with ease and fanfare; some come with pain, disaster and destabilisation. They throw you off balance and establish a new order for you. God doesn't teach you to resign to fate and do nothing about it. On the contrary, He expects you to create new experiences with it. In this wise, the stones thrown at you becomes your foundational building stones. He expects you to convert your lemons into lemonade. Job asks, 'Have you commanded your morning and caused your new day to know its place?" If you haven't, here's a reminder - transition into something new and glorious! TODAY'S TAKE HOME: ‭‭Pain, losses, unpleasant outcomes, like every other emotion, is not permanent. Do not accord a permanent residence status to a walk through visitor. Create a new and empowering experience from your new season, whether it started pleasantly or not. PRAYER: Dear Lord, I receive grace to reorder my priorities, create new uplifting experiences from my pitfalls and setbacks. I refuse to stay knocked down or empower pain to reign in my parade. I'm a creator and my end is glorious, in Jesus name.
