Joyce Meyer Daily Devotional – 16th January 2026 (Friday) Message
TOPIC: Don’t Give Up!
Let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. — Galatians 6:9 (KJV)
TODAY’S MESSAGE
Do you ever feel like giving up? Perhaps you’re discouraged about your finances or you’re facing problems with your health, your marriage, or your children. Sometimes problems seem so overwhelming that the road ahead seems too steep to climb.
We all go through these times. I’ve wanted to give up and quit many times through the years. But when I realized I had nothing interesting to go back to, I determined to keep pressing on.
Even though continuing to move forward is sometimes painful, it is far better than giving up and sliding backwards. God is doing a good work in you so He can do more for you and through you. So, ask Him to fill you with holy determination tonight and keep moving in the right direction.
PRAYER OF THE DAY: Lord, when I feel weary and want to quit, fill me with Your strength and determination. Help me keep pressing forward, trusting You to finish the good work You’ve begun, amen.
