Day 30 – The Lord Fights for You

📖 Exodus 14:14 (KJV)
“The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.”



💥 Description:

When the pressure closes in…
When the enemy is gaining speed…
When the Red Sea is in front of you and Pharaoh is behind you…

To hold your peace.
To let Him war on your behalf.

“Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.”

🛡️ Description:

This is not just a verse — it is a divine warning.
In Day 27, we step into the line of spiritual fire where the oil of God draws a boundary around His own.

You are not weak. You are armed and dangerous—in the Spirit.
God didn’t leave you exposed.
He didn’t leave you helpless.
He left you armed with truth, shielded by faith, and dangerous to the enemy’s plans.

The battlefield isn’t in the headlines—it’s in the unseen.

07/24/2025

The Simple Walk – 50 Days of Light
Day 21 – The Unseen Fight

🗣️This fight is not about what you can see… it’s about what you can’t.

Scripture: Ephesians 6:12 (KJV)
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood…”

You’re not just exhausted—you’re being spiritually ambushed.
You’re not just frustrated—it’s a principality at war with your purpose.
And it’s time to stop fighting people and start standing in truth, discernment, and spiritual armor.

Day 18 – From Bitter to Better

The Simple Walk: 50 Days of Light

“Call me not Naomi, call me Mara: for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me…” Scripture: Ruth 1:20–21 (KJV)


🌟Have you ever walked back into your life with less than you left with?

Naomi did. She left full… but returned empty, wounded by grief, loss, and heartbreak. She even changed her name to Mara—bitter. But God never intended that to be her final identity.

Day 16 – Watch and Pray

The Simple Walk: 50 Days of Light
Scripture: Matthew 26:41 (KJV)
“Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

The spirit is willing… but the flesh is weak.
That tension didn’t begin with us—it was revealed in Gethsemane. When Jesus asked His closest followers to stay awake and pray, they fell asleep in the very hour they were most needed.

This message isn’t just about prayer, it’s about posture.
In a season where darkness creeps...

📣 Day 15 – You Are Not Forsaken

The Simple Walk: 50 Days of Light

You may feel forgotten… but you are still chosen.
You may feel overlooked… but you are still seen.
You may feel weak… but you are still covered.

Deuteronomy 31:6 wasn’t written for peaceful times—it was declared on the edge of battle.
To a people facing fear, uncertainty, and loss of leadership, God thundered,
“I will not fail you. I will not forsake you.”

💡 That promise still stands.

In grief, He stays.
In silence, He remains.

✨ You may not see the finish line yet…
but there’s a lamp for your next step.

Day 13 – Chosen in the Furnace
07/16/2025

📣 Day 13 – Chosen in the Furnace

The Simple Walk: 50 Days of Light

🔥 You weren’t picked in the spotlight…
You were chosen in the fire.

In the crushing.
In the rejection.
In the affliction.
God said, “That one belongs to Me.”

Isaiah 48:10 doesn’t say you were chosen on your best day…
It says you were refined in the furnace of affliction.

So if the fire has been intense lately,
It’s not because God left…
It’s because He’s forming gold.

📖 “I have chosen thee...

📣 Day 12 – The Oil Still Flows

The Simple Walk: 50 Days of Light

You may feel like you’ve poured out everything.
You’ve cried, served, sacrificed… and now you feel empty.
But listen closely—emptiness is not the end. It’s the invitation.

In 2 Kings 4:6, the oil only stopped when there were no more vessels.
God’s supply didn’t dry up… the capacity did.

✨ Bring your jar—your need, your weakness, your hope.
Because the oil still flows for the ones willing to make room.

Those who wait on the Lord… will renew their strength.

This journey is hard, yes—
but He’s pouring fresh power into every step.

It’s a command for your freedom.

Scripture: Exodus 13:21 (KJV)

“And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night.”

When God leads, it’s not always with a map—but with a movement.
A cloud by day… a fire by night.
Don’t chase comfort—chase the cloud.
There’s divine protection in following His presence, even when it d...

Soul anchored in truth.

There is peace… in the fire.

Day 7 – The Silent Season
07/10/2025

The Simple Walk: 50 Days of Light Day 7 – The Silent Season

📖 Ecclesiastes 3:7 – “A time to keep silence, and a time to speak…”
From The Simple Walk: 50 Days of Light by Pastor Barbara Duffey Hammonds

There comes a time when Heaven seems quiet. The doors don’t slam shut, but they don’t swing wide open either. The phone doesn’t ring. The healing doesn’t come. The answers delay.

It’s not punishment. It’s the Silent Season—a holy hush where God isn’t absent, He’s just working in ways beyond words.

In this sacred stil...

✨ In today’s devotional, Pastor Barbara Duffey Hammonds delivers a powerful call straight from Heaven’s throne room:

“Come up higher.”

🌟 The Simple Walk: 50 Days of Light

Day 5 – The Broken Bread

📖 John 6:35 (KJV)
“I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.”

🕊️ Day 5 leads us into a sacred truth: Jesus was broken to feed us—and when life breaks us, it may be God preparing to multiply us for others.

Before bread can nourish, it must be blessed… and broken.
This episode reminds listeners that their breaking is not meaningless.
It’s not rejection… it’s redistribution.

Day 4 – When God Says Wait
07/07/2025

Day 4 – When God Says Wait
The Simple Walk: 50 Days of Light with Pastor Barbara Duffey Hammonds

🔥 Sometimes the greatest test isn’t in the going… it’s in the waiting.

In today’s devotional, Pastor Barbara Duffey Hammonds walks us through Habakkuk 2:3, reminding us that delay is not denial. When God says “wait,” it’s a divine invitation to trust, to mature, and to stand in faith until the appointed time.

Waiting doesn’t mean you’ve been forgotten—it means something greater is being prepared.

Let this Word renew your strength as you learn to...


Day 3 - Keep Knocking
07/05/2025

🌟 Day 3: Keep on Knocking 🌟

“And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.”
– Luke 11:9 (KJV)

When the door doesn’t open right away… don’t walk away.
When the answer is delayed… don’t let go.
Keep knocking.
The noise of your persistence is faith in motion.
It tells heaven, “I still believe.”
It tells hell, “You haven’t stopped me.”
God hears the hand that won’t quit… and in due season, the door will swing wide.


Day 2 - The Pressing Place
07/04/2025

🌿 Day 2: The Pressing Place

“And being in an agony, He prayed more earnestly…”
— Luke 22:44 KJV

When purpose weighs heavy and prayers turn to agony, you’ve entered The Pressing Place.
This is not punishment—it’s preparation.

Jesus wasn’t just sorrowful in Gethsemane…
He was being pressed—so the oil of obedience could flow.

💧 This is where your will dies and God’s will lives.
💧 This is where tears become testimony.
💧 This is where pressure becomes the path to power.

You’re not being buried…
You’re being pressed…

The Simple Walk - 50 Days of Light

🌿 Day 1: Still Waters — Finding Peace in a Chaotic World

In a world overflowing with chaos, anxiety, and constant noise, Day 1 of the 50 Days of LIGHT devotional series brings a sacred pause.

“He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.”

These still waters aren’t just poetic—they’re powerful. They represent restoration, healing, and the quiet leading of a Shepherd who sees what your weary soul truly needs. Today is an invitation to slow down, clear you...
