The Table Is Being Set
DAY 2 – MONDAY, JULY 14, 2025
 
 “The Table Is Being Set”

Scripture: “You prepare a feast for me in the presence of my enemies…” — Psalm 23:5 (NLT)

Sis, sit down and catch this truth: The very people who tried to break you will have to watch God bless you.
 
There is a table being set in your honor—and it has nothing to do with revenge and everything to do with divine restoration.
 
Psalm 23:5 is not just poetic—it’s a prophetic promise. In biblical times, to prepare a feast for someone was an act of intimate honor and public recognition. But this isn’t just any feast. It’s a table prepared in the presence of your enemies.
That means the people who mocked you, abandoned you, doubted you, and tried to bury you—they won’t be able to stop the blessing. In fact, they’ll have to witness it.

Let’s Break It Down: Psalm 23:5
 
“You prepare a feast for me”

This is God’s doing. You didn’t manipulate your way here. You didn’t have to chase validation or demand a seat. God Himself is setting the table.
 
“In the presence of my enemies”
He’s not hiding your breakthrough. He’s making it undeniable.
He’s not just removing you from the pain—He’s exalting you in the middle of it.
 
God isn’t just bringing you out. He’s bringing you out in style.
And He’s doing it in such a way that the very people who thought it was over for you… will have no choice but to see that you were covered the whole time.

To the Woman of Encouraging Her Resilience…
 
This is for you, the woman who has cried behind closed doors.
The woman who stayed silent while being falsely accused.
The woman who kept praying when all hell broke loose.
The woman who served others while her own heart was breaking.
God saw you. He still sees you. And now? He’s honoring you.
 
You don’t have to fight to prove your worth.
You don’t have to clap back at those who betrayed you.
You don’t have to avenge yourself—because your elevation will speak louder than anything you could ever say.

Challenge of the Day: Choose Peace Over Reaction
 
 Today, choose stillness. Instead of reacting to what’s been said or done to you, respond with faith.
Spend 10 intentional minutes alone with God.
Sit in His presence. Thank Him for what you can’t yet see, but know is coming.
Say it out loud:
“God, I believe the table is already being set for me.”

Prayer of the Day:
 
Father, I choose to trust Your timing and Your process.
I don’t need to fight for a seat at the table—You’re preparing one just for me.
You saw the tears, the betrayal, the long nights. You heard the words said behind my back.
But You, oh God, are not finished.
You are restoring my name.
You are honoring me in places where I was once humiliated.
You are elevating me in rooms where I was once rejected.
I receive Your peace. I receive Your promise.
And I will sit with grace and gratitude as You prepare the feast.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Remember This, Sis:
 
You don’t need to announce your healing.
You don’t need to explain your growth.
You don’t need to prove your resilience.
The table God is preparing will do all the talking.
 
Your job?
Stay faithful. Stay surrendered. Stay seated.
God is doing the rest.

From Chains to Change — How God Redeemed My Life

Hey, Resilient Woman — Your Healing Starts Here

My name is Dashonia Marie, and I am living proof that God can take a shattered life and turn it into a story of strength, purpose, and redemption. I’ve walked through the fire — addiction, trauma, loss, and pain that tried to silence my purpose — but God’s grace met me in the ashes and taught me how to rise.

I know what it feels like to be broken, to question your worth, and to wonder if freedom is even possible. But I also know what it means to encounter the healing power of God — the kind that restores what was stolen, rewrites your identity, and breathes new life into weary hearts.

Through Encouraging Her Resilience, I’ve made it my mission to walk beside women like you — women who are ready to break cycles, renew their minds, and rediscover the woman God created them to be. This is not about perfection; it’s about progress. It’s about learning that your past does not define you — God’s promise does.

As a Certified Addiction Counselor and Faith-Based Recovery Coach, I don’t just offer sessions; I offer safe spaces — places where healing is nurtured, faith is strengthened, and transformation begins from the inside out.

I believe every woman has a comeback story waiting to be written — and I’m here to help you write yours. Because if God could redeem my life, He can surely restore yours. 

Healing is possible. Hope is real. Freedom is yours — and it starts with saying yes.

With love and grace,

Dashonia Marie

Founder, Encouraging Her Resilience
