AUGUST 2026
OUR MONTH OF THE NEW THING
Monthly Anchor Scripture
"Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert."
Isaiah 43:18–19 (KJV)
DAY 7
WEEK 1 — RECOGNIZING THE NEW THING
Focus: Discernment, fresh eyes, new season awareness.
Reality: God often reveals His new thing through the stories He is writing in our lives.
THE Stories God Is Writing Now
Anchor Scripture
Psalm 107:2 (NKJV)
"Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, Whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy."
Opening Thought
Every testimony is evidence that God is still doing a new thing.
The greatest stories are not always found in books or movies. They are found in transformed lives. Every answered prayer, every restored relationship, every victory over fear, every healed wound, and every act of God's faithfulness becomes a chapter in the story He is writing through His people.
Reflection
Throughout Scripture, God instructed His people to remember and tell His mighty works.
David wrote songs.
Moses recorded miracles.
Luke documented the life of Christ.
Paul wrote letters that continue changing lives today.
Your story matters because it points people to God's faithfulness.
Whether through writing, filmmaking, photography, music, blogging, social media, or simple conversations, God can use your creativity to spread hope.
The new thing God is doing in your life is not meant to remain hidden. Someone else is waiting for the encouragement that only your testimony can provide.
Do not despise your journey.
God is writing something beautiful.
Prayer
Father, thank You for the story You are writing through my life. Help me recognize Your hand in every season and give me the boldness to share my testimony for Your glory. May every gift of creativity You've placed within me become a channel of hope, truth, and encouragement to others. In Jesus' name, Amen.
Declarations
- My life tells the story of God's faithfulness.
- Every chapter of my journey reveals God's glory.
- My testimony will encourage others to trust God.
- God is writing something beautiful through my life.
- I will use my gifts and creativity to glorify Christ.
Spirit Challenge
Share one testimony of God's goodness today. It could be through a conversation, a social media post, a journal entry, or by encouraging someone with your personal experience.
Closing Exhortation
The stories God writes are never wasted. Every season, every lesson, and every victory becomes a testimony that strengthens others and glorifies Him. Let your life become a living witness of God's new thing.
Live differently.
