I’m Built for the Blessing!

 


What’s up wonderful, amazing, sweet, and lovely people? 🌸 It’s a beautiful day, and I want to share this amazing message with you all! Today, the preacher was Apostle Ramone Presley from RP Capital Holdings, and let me just say—his message stirred something in me so deeply that I couldn’t keep it to myself. I knew this blessing wasn’t meant to stay only in my house, but to reach you, my friends, family, and readers.


The Theme of September is:

✨ I’m built for this: I’m built for the blessing! ✨


Apostle Ramone broke down what “the blessing” truly means, and it gave me a fresh perspective. Here are the three facts about the blessing that he shared:



1. The Blessing Demands Unusual Circumstances (Luke 1:26-29)



Unusual circumstances are divinely designed by God to:


  • Redefine how people see you
  • Kick you out of your comfort zone
  • Force you out of familiar places
  • Provoke you to your potential



God is picking me out for greatness! 🙌 Mary was in an unusual circumstance when she was chosen to birth the Savior—positioned supernaturally for greater. Sometimes the unusual things happening in our lives are actually God setting us up for His extraordinary plan.



2. The Blessing Diffuses Uncomfortable Conversations (Luke 1:30-38)



Instead of addressing Mary’s fears, God confirmed three things:


  • Her favor
  • Her conception
  • Her community



What a powerful truth—God doesn’t just tell you what to do; He tells you why. That spoke to me because sometimes I wonder, “Why hasn’t my business taken off yet?” Could it be that I’ve been trying to do it in my own power? Apostle Ramone reminded us: it’s about God, not about me.



3. The Blessing Delivers Unquestionable Consequences (Luke 1:39-42)



When you stop questioning God’s confirmation and simply believe, He produces unquestionable consequences. Favorable outcomes begin to appear—sometimes even before they’re due. Your praise isn’t a condition for the blessing—it’s a companion to the blessing.





What Is “The Blessing”?



Apostle Ramone defined it so beautifully:

The blessing is the supernatural capacity for God to produce favorable outcomes beyond what is due to me.


It’s not based on my natural ability. It’s not based on your natural ability. It’s the supernatural hand of God producing results that go beyond what we could ever earn, expect, or imagine.




I left church today with my spirit on fire because this message wasn’t just about Mary—it’s about us, right now. God is still confirming His favor, still positioning His people for greatness, and still producing favorable outcomes beyond what is due.


So today, I declare with boldness:

🌟 I’m built for this. I’m built for the blessing. 🌟


And so are you.


Stay joyful, stay faithful, and let’s walk together in the blessing God has designed for us. 💖

OUR LABOR DAY PICNIC

 


Hello wonderful, amazing, sweet, and lovely people! 💕


Thanks so much for checking out my blog today. I hope you’re having a beautiful day filled with peace, joy, and maybe even a little sunshine.


This Labor Day, my family and I decided to do something simple yet so refreshing—a picnic by the lake. And oh, what a day it was!




We found the perfect little spot under some tall, shady trees that kept us cool the entire time. The breeze was gentle, the view was calming, and the laughter… well, it filled the air from start to finish.


We grilled up some juicy burgers and hot dogs (the smell alone made my heart happy 🥰) and enjoyed them together while sharing stories, cracking jokes, and just soaking in the beauty of the day. Afterward, we played a few fun games that had us laughing so hard that the hours just flew by.




Before we knew it, four hours had passed—but honestly, it felt like just a moment. That’s the magic of being present with loved ones: time slips away because your heart is so full.


It was truly a joyful Labor Day, one I’ll always remember. Moments like these remind me how important it is to pause, celebrate, and create memories with the people who matter most. ❤️









Tell me, how did you spend your Labor Day? Did you do something fun, adventurous, or maybe just enjoy a cozy rest day at home? I’d love to hear all about it in the comments!


Wishing you all more beautiful moments with the ones you love. 🌸


With love and joy,

Maryam

Stay Hopeful Even When It’s Hard




Stay Hopeful Even When It’s Hard


What’s up wonderful, amazing, sweet, and lovely people? 💖

How are you all doing today? I hope you’re having an amazing day, and most importantly, I hope you’re not allowing anybody to steal your joy.


Welcome back to Maryam’s Joyful Life Blog! Today is truly a beautiful day, and I’m so glad you’re here with me.


I want to share something that has been on my heart lately: being hopeful even when you don’t see a sign of your breakthrough.


We all know those moments when life gets tough—when bills are piling up, doors seem to stay closed, and the weight of waiting feels almost unbearable. In times like these, staying hopeful doesn’t come naturally. You might feel discouraged, desperate, or even forgotten. But let me remind you today: don’t give up.


Keep looking up.

Keep speaking life over your situation.

Keep believing that better days are ahead.


When the nights are long and it feels like joy is far away, open your Bible and grab hold of God’s promises. Scriptures about His provision and guidance are reminders that He has not left you. For example, Philippians 4:19 says, “And my God will supply every need of yours according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” That means even when you don’t see a way, God already has a way prepared for you.


The truth is, challenges will come. But they are not the end of your story. Get your mind ready to believe: although things may be hard right now, they’re about to get better.


And here’s another important part: don’t suffer in silence. It’s okay to ask for help. We’re not meant to carry life’s burdens alone. Reach out to someone you trust, pray with them, and allow yourself to be lifted up. Community, prayer, and faith are powerful weapons against despair.


So if you’re reading this today and you’re in that place of waiting, I just want to encourage you: this is not the end. Your story is still being written. God is working behind the scenes, even when you can’t see it.


Stay hopeful. Keep shining. And always remember—your breakthrough is closer than you think. 🌸


With love and joy,

Maryam

The Power of the Psalms: Finding Rest and Healing in God’s Word

 


What’s up wonderful, amazing, sweet, and lovely people? How y’all doing today? I hope you’re having a truly beautiful day—and I hope you know it’s still your joy! ✨ Welcome back to Maryam’s Joyful Life Blog.


Writing here always brings me so much joy because it gives me the chance to encourage you, share my heart, and hopefully brighten your day. Today’s post is about something very close to my heart: trusting in God and the power of the Psalms.





My Experience with the Psalms



Yesterday, I was so tired. I hadn’t had enough sleep for a few days, and my body just felt drained. My sweet man encouraged me to take a nap with the baby while he went to pick up the older kids from school. Honestly, I just wanted to rest.


But as I laid down, I felt weighed down—not just from tiredness, but from something heavy on my heart. I thought about getting up to meditate, but I knew I didn’t have the strength. That’s when the Holy Spirit gently placed something on my heart: “Turn on the book of Psalms on the Bible App.”


If you don’t already have the Bible App on your phone, I encourage you to download it today—it’s such a blessing. One of my favorite features is that you can have the Bible read aloud to you, in different voices, so you can just listen and soak it in.


So, I pressed play, starting from Psalm 1, and just let it read. As the words of Scripture filled the room, I felt a sense of healing—like the Word of God was washing over me. I drifted into the most refreshing nap, almost two and a half hours long!


When I woke up, I was amazed. I had started at Psalm 1, and by the time I opened my eyes, it had reached Psalm 50. That means, while I rested, I absorbed 50 chapters of the Word of God—and I felt renewed, energized, and light.





The Healing Power of God’s Word



Friend, if you’re feeling heavy, frustrated, weak, or discouraged—try this. Whether you’re lying down, sitting quietly, or even driving, turn on the Psalms and let the Word of God speak into your spirit.


The Bible says, “The word of God is living and active, sharper than any double-edged sword; it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow” (Hebrews 4:12).


That means nothing—no heaviness, no discouragement, no fear—can stand against God’s Word. It is living power, and it brings peace, healing, and strength right where you need it most.





Try It for Yourself



So today, I encourage you to try it. Let the Psalms play over you. Allow the Word to break down the walls of negativity and fill you with God’s peace. And when you do, come back and share your experience in the comments—I’d love to hear how it blessed you!


Remember this: don’t let anybody steal your joy. God’s Word is your weapon, your healing, and your strength.


With love and encouragement,

Maryam 💛
