But what if your brokenness isn’t a sign that God is finished? What if it’s proof that He’s starting something new? God never wastes pain. He never leaves ground untouched by purpose. In His Kingdom, broken ground is fertile ground. “Break up your fallow ground, for it is time to seek the Lord, till He comes and rains righteousness on you.” – Hosea 10:12 (NKJV) Sometimes God has to break the ground to prepare it for the next season.

“Do not be afraid.” It’s one of the most repeated commands in all of Scripture — appearing roughly 365 times. That’s one “Fear not” for every single day of the year. And here’s what that tells me: God knew fear would try to visit us daily. But He also gave us a daily reminder that His presence and protection are stronger than anything that could come against us. So while the world celebrates Halloween, a day that glorifies fear, darkness, and the things that go bump in the ni

There are seasons when God doesn’t just hand you a seed — He sends you as one. He places you in families, workplaces, churches, and communities, not simply to receive a harvest, but to become one. You are the seed God plants to bring change, light, and fruit to places that have gone dry. And like any seed, you may have to endure darkness, pressure, and time before your purpose begins to grow.

The Word of God never returns void. It may be buried deep beneath disappointment or delay, but it’s alive, active, and growing — even when you can’t see it.

Life has its share of missed swings. We say the wrong thing, make the wrong move, or let fear keep us from stepping into what God called us to do. But the beauty of walking with God is that He doesn’t disqualify us when we fail. He hands us the ball again and says, “Try again, My child.” That’s favor. That’s mercy. That’s a divine do-over. Tony’s Favor Fact™: Grace is God’s way of saying, “You don’t have to end on your mistake.”

Spiritually, that same tension exists in our lives. We sow faithfully, pray persistently, and believe wholeheartedly, yet sometimes it feels like nothing’s happening. The ground looks undisturbed. The air feels quiet. The waiting feels endless. And that’s where most people give up — right before the bloom.

If you’ve ever lost something — peace, purpose, confidence, a job, a loved one, a friendship, or even your faith — you know the ache that follows. It’s the kind of pain that makes you wonder if things will ever be right again. But I’ve learned this: God specializes in restoration. He doesn’t just return what was lost — He rebuilds it. He doesn’t just heal what’s broken — He makes it stronger. And He doesn’t just put you back where you were — He moves you forward into somethin

That moment between seed and harvest is what I call “the weight of waiting.” Waiting is heavy because it tests both your endurance and your belief. It’s the space where you can’t see what God is doing, but you must trust that He’s still doing it. It’s not wasted time — it’s working time, where the roots grow deeper before the fruit appears.

Too often, we think of generosity as something we do when we have “extra.” Extra money, extra time, extra energy. But here’s what I’ve learned: generosity is not about what you have. It’s about your heart. It’s about recognizing that God owns it all anyway — and when you live open-handed, He pours out blessings you never expected.

To me, hearing God clearly in such a noisy, confusing world is not something to take lightly. It’s not guaranteed. It’s not something I can manufacture. It’s a blessing. It’s favor. When I hear His whisper, His gentle nudge, or that scripture that rises in my spirit at just the right moment, it brings clarity, protection, and peace that I could never give myself.

true peace, God’s peace, isn’t found when everything is calm around you. It’s found when everything is chaotic and yet your spirit remains steady. That’s the favor of peace in the midst. When you are surrounded by storms but not shaken by them, when you are under pressure but not crushed, when you can sleep, sing, and smile in situations that should have broken you — that’s not natural. That’s supernatural favor.

We live in a world that measures success by visible results—numbers, likes, money, applause. But Heaven doesn’t operate that way. Every prayer whispered, every act of kindness, every tear shed in intercession, every step of obedience—it all counts.
