The Lord Is Your Keeper
Day 7 – Saturday, July 26, 2025
 
 The Lord Is Your Keeper

Scripture: “The Lord keeps you from all harm and watches over your life. The Lord keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever.” — Psalm 121:7–8 (NLT)

 Morning Devotional: You’ve Been Carried, Not Just Covered
 
Sis… take a breath.
You made it to Day 7 not just because you’re strong—but because God kept you when you didn’t even know you needed keeping.
 
Let’s be honest. You didn’t survive everything you’ve been through because of your own strength.
You weren’t protected from the overdose, the abusive partner, the court case, the breakdown, the loss, the relapse, the rage, the grief… because you had it all together.
No, you were KEPT.
Kept when you ran. Kept when you fell. Kept when you doubted. Kept when you broke.
 
That’s what it means when we say, “The Lord is your Keeper.”
It’s not poetic—it’s prophetic. It’s truth wrapped in power.

God’s Keeping Is Constant and Complete
 
Psalm 121:7–8 doesn’t say “sometimes” or “occasionally.”
It says God is watching over your life—not just the big stuff. Every detail.
  • Your coming in.
  • Your going out.
  • Your silence.
  • Your tears.
  • Your secrets.
  • Your struggle.
  • Your story.
 
And He’s not watching from afar—He’s present, active, hands-on.
 
You are divinely watched, divinely guarded, divinely preserved.

To the Woman Who’s Been in Survival Mode for Too Long…
 
You’ve been trained to watch your own back.
To trust no one.
To rely on no one.
To carry everyone else’s weight and still show up smiling.
 
But sis—you were never built to be your own keeper.
 
You don’t have to check every angle.
You don’t have to brace for another attack.
You don’t have to control what only God can cover.
 
You are not unguarded. YOU ARE HELD.

Why Does This Matter for You?
 
Because this isn’t just the end of a 7-day devotional.
This is the start of your next level of trust.
 
God didn’t just get you through the fire.
He’s already ahead of you in the next battle—setting angels in place, clearing paths, and guarding what’s yours.
 
You are not vulnerable. You are not at risk. You are KEPT by the Keeper of all creation.

Spiritual Awareness Activation
 
Right now, lay your hand over your heart and declare:
 
“I am not alone. I am not forgotten. I am not exposed. I am kept by God. My life is watched over, covered, protected, and preserved. I am safe in the hands of my Keeper.”

Prayer:
 
Lord, thank You for being my Keeper—not just when I’m strong, but especially when I’m weak. You’ve watched over me in silence, protected me in storms, and carried me through fires. Today, I surrender every piece of my life into Your keeping—my recovery, my relationships, my emotions, my destiny. Anchor me in the truth that I don’t walk this life alone. I am covered, now and forever. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Affirmation of the Day:
 
“The Lord is my Keeper. He holds my life together, and nothing slips through His hands. I am covered—now and forever.”

My Journey To Resilience And Redemption

Hey Resilient Woman, 

My name is Dashonia Marie, and I am a woman who has experienced the depths of pain, addiction, and trauma—but also the transformative power of God’s grace and healing. My life is a testimony of how surrendering to God can bring renewal and restoration, no matter how broken the pieces may seem.
 
For years, I struggled with addiction, loss, and the scars of past trauma, but through faith and determination, I found freedom and purpose. Today, I dedicate my life to helping other women discover that same freedom. Through Encouraging Her Resilience, I strive to create resources that inspire hope, build resilience, and guide women on their journey to recovery—just as I’ve been guided on mine.
 
I believe healing is possible for every woman, no matter her story. My mission is to provide faith-based tools and encouragement to help women see their worth, embrace God’s promises, and walk boldly into the life He has planned for them. I am living proof that God can take our brokenness and turn it into something beautiful, and it is my heart’s calling to walk alongside others as they step into their own transformation.
