God's Word is present to help all to overcome as Jesus Christ also overcame.

as you embark upon each new day’s journey while navigating the ebbs and flows of life’s challenges can seem daunting at times. However, as you read and mediate daily upon the pages of this book, its Scripture-influenced phrases, passages, and declarations, you will soon find awakening within you the innate ability that we all possess as believers (children of the ever-living God, created in His image) to bring forth from the realm of possibility (the substance of things hoped for, the supernatural) into the realm of actuality (the evidence of things not seen, the natural) those things that Jesus Himself procured for our benefit and made available through his finished works. We all have unique God-given potential, and tapping into it each day requires inspiration, motivation, and determination. This book will help propel you into purpose and keep you lifted up and inspired as you journey from your current state in life to the expected ends God has already prepared for you.

Allow 365 Day Starters to be the wings upon which your ambition and dreams not only fly, but reach their destination of full manifestation."
