A Million Reasons to Praise

Scripture:
"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us..."
— Ephesians 3:20 (NIV)

Devotional:

Last Thursday marked a major milestone—the ribbon cutting to announce the physical location of Rita Felton Coaching & Consulting. Surrounded by love, encouragement, and celebration, I was filled with gratitude. While I was overjoyed, I also had a quiet, sobering moment with God: “Lord, now the real work begins.”  I knew that building a meaningful business, one that honors God, would take faith, courage, and perseverance.

Then came a divine reminder.

My hubby and I were traveling to Savannah, Georgia, and made a quick stop at Buc-ee’s. I had already received some uplifting news earlier in the day, so my heart was already full. But when I stepped into the restroom—yes, the restroom—I was suddenly overwhelmed with gratitude. I lifted my hands and and did the “Hallelujah" dance and whispered " Thank You, Jesus!”

And that’s when I saw it.

Above the tissue holder was a faux million-dollar bill. Curious, I picked it up and flipped it over. It wasn’t about money at all—it was a Christian message. A clear sign. Not just clever evangelism, but a holy confirmation.

It was as if God was saying, "Your needs are already met with Heaven’s best." And in that moment, I received it.

Not because of the paper or the place, but because the posture of my heart was ready to believe. God used that moment—small to others, sacred to me—to say, “I’ve got you. I see you. I’m ahead of you.”

He still moves like that. 

Reflection Questions:

• Are you open to seeing God's signs—even in unexpected places?
• Is there something you've been worrying about that God may have already provided for?
• What would shift in your spirit if you truly believed that your needs are already met with Heaven’s best?

Prayer:
Father, thank You for Your timely reminders that You are near, faithful, and always providing. Thank You for speaking through ordinary moments and revealing extraordinary truth. Help me to walk in confidence, knowing that I lack nothing when I trust in You. May my life, my business, and every assignment I carry bring glory to Your name. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Challenge:
Where might God be speaking to you that you haven’t noticed? Are you open to hearing Him in unexpected places and through unexpected means? This week, ask Him to increase your awareness—and don’t dismiss the small confirmations. They often point to something greater.
