Devotional 8: God Is Still Working
What if unfinished doesn’t mean failing?
What if the middle of your story—the part that feels slow, uncertain, and incomplete—is actually where God is doing some of His deepest work?
In this devotional, we reflect on Philippians 1:6 and the assurance that God remains faithful to the work He begins, even when progress feels invisible and growth takes longer than expected.

About This Devotional
There are seasons of faith where nothing feels broken exactly, but nothing feels finished either.
You aren’t who you used to be. You’ve grown, learned, healed, and changed. Yet you’re also aware of how much remains unresolved. The questions aren’t gone. The process isn’t complete. And if you’re honest, you thought things might feel more settled by now.
In this devotional, we sit with Philippians 1:6 and the promise that God remains committed to the work He has begun in us. Through supporting passages from Lamentations and Galatians, we’re reminded that God’s faithfulness is not dependent on our timelines, our energy, or our ability to see immediate results.
If you’ve been measuring your growth by outcomes, this devotional offers a gentler perspective. Becoming is not a failure of faith. It is often the very place where faith is growing deepest.
Scripture Focus
Philippians 1:6 (NASB)
“I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.”
This promise shifts the responsibility for completion back where it belongs. God began the work. God sustains the work. And God remains faithful to finish the work.
