Easter Week | Friday
Friday | April 3, 2026
This Week's Focus: This week, we’ll discover how God meets us in our impossible moments and makes a way forward through the hope of the Resurrection of Jesus.
Scripture
Scripture Helps Us Hear God And Live His Truth.
29 But the people of Israel had walked through the middle of the sea on dry ground, as the water stood up like a wall on both sides.
Exodus 14:29 NLT
Exodus 14:29 NLT
Just Take the Next Step
The waters had parted, but the journey still required movement. The Israelites had to walk forward, step by step, trusting that the ground beneath them would hold. The miracle was happening, but they still had to participate in it.
That’s often how faith works in our lives. We want clarity, certainty, and a full picture before we move, but God usually gives us just enough for the next step. He invites us into a daily, ongoing trust.
Each step through the sea required courage. The people couldn’t see the end from where they started. They just had to keep going. And with every step, they experienced more of God’s faithfulness.
Maybe today, you don’t need the whole plan, you just need the next step. God isn’t asking you to figure everything out. He’s simply asking you to trust Him enough to keep moving forward.

Reflection
Reflection Helps Us Pause, Listen, And Let God Speak To Our Hearts.
- Where in my life am I waiting for clarity instead of taking a step of faith?
- What is making it hard for me to move forward right now?
- Do I trust God with the process, or only the outcome?
Journaling Prompts
This Is A Safe Place To Be Honest With God
- Write down one next step you feel God prompting you to take, no matter how small.
- What fear or hesitation do you need to surrender in order to move forward?
- How can you remind yourself daily to trust God one step at a time?
