INSPIRE Devotionals With Emmanuel Afiawari Monday, February 2, 2026 Topic: Foundations of Faith: The Art of Beginning Correctly Memory Verse: ‭‭"‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth" - Genesis‬ ‭1:1‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ Bible Text: ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭Revelation‬ ‭1:8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ 8. ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” INSPIRATION: Genesis' opening Verse is instructive to our message today. Define your strategy and operations and hit home run from the beginning. No point to delay. Get clarity and enough light around what you're about to do. There's no room for trial and error. Your beginning is critical to how your foundation is laid and how you'll build subsequently. If you despise your beginning, you're sure not ready for what's to come thereafter. God sees a matter to its end, backs off and begins at its beginning again to create or work it out. You should have a mental picture from start to finish for whatever you embark on. Stop desiring a great ending that you haven't factored how well planned out your beginning was. For if the foundation be destroyed, what can you do (Psalms 11:3). This question should provoke you to put on your thinking cap concerning your foundation each time you want to begin something TODAY'S TAKE HOME: ‭How your foundation is laid should matter to you more than what you build on it later. PRAYER: Dear Lord, help me to follow through on the example You modelled for us in being the Beginning and the End. I receive grace to see every of my project to its logical and beautiful ending rather than abandoned unfinished, in Jesus name.
