✍️ Author Devotional: Following Your Calling to Write Theme: Obedience in the Pages Scripture:

Theme: Obedience in the Pages Scripture: “And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.” — Habakkuk 2:2 (KJV)

There’s something sacred about the moment God places a story, message, or testimony on your heart. It may start as a whisper — a fleeting thought, a verse that keeps returning, or a story that won’t let go. That’s not coincidence, dear writer — that’s calling.

Writing for God is an act of obedience. When He says “write,” He isn’t asking you to be perfect — He’s asking you to be faithful. He’s not looking for the most talented, polished, or eloquent; He’s looking for those willing to pour their hearts onto paper so that others might find healing, hope, and faith through their words.

There will be days when doubt tries to silence your pen, when the enemy whispers that your words don’t matter. But remember — Moses stuttered, David was overlooked, and yet God used them to change generations. You are no different. If He has called you to write, He has already equipped you with everything you need to fulfill that calling.

Each word you write in obedience becomes a seed. You may not see the harvest right away, but somewhere — maybe years from now — someone will pick up your words and find Jesus in them.

So today, take your pen, your laptop, your notebook — whatever tool you use — and dedicate it back to God. Ask Him to guide every line, every chapter, every story. Let your writing become worship.

Reflection Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for trusting me with the gift of words. Help me to write not for fame, but for faith. Quiet my doubts and steady my hands. Let my words reflect Your truth and Your heart. Use my writing to bring light, comfort, and salvation to others. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Today’s Challenge: Write one paragraph today that glorifies God — whether it’s a story idea, devotional thought, or reflection of gratitude. Don’t worry about perfection — just write in obedience.
