I am enjoying reading “God, in every step” Each weeks devotion is thoughtfully written, offering a perfect balance of scripture, reflection, and practical application. Bermie Dizon has a way of making God’s Word come alive, connecting timeless truths to real-life challenges he has experienced in a way that’s both comforting and convicting. Draw near to God and he will draw near to you.
“This morning, my wife and I began Week #1 of this book. It prompted us to reflect deeply on the challenges we’ve faced together and the new beginnings we’ve embraced. We’re reminded that God is always present to support, uplift, and empower us in every moment. The personal examples in the book make the lessons clear and easy to apply. We plan to incorporate this book into our devotionals through 2025. Highly recommended! “
I just got 3 copies, two for gifts, for all the years I wished I could do more for on Pastor Appreciation day. You were one of the best Pastors ever. I’m so thankful for you Pastor Bermie.
Starting a daily Quiet Time habit with God is beautifully simplified through devotions. I enhance my daily devotion with the inspirational book “GOD, in Every Step” written by Pastor Bermie Dizon , a truly inspiring book.
I am excited for our friend and Pastor Bermie Dizon and his book! I know God has worked (and continues to work) through Bermie and God’s word will be poured over you as you read the devotionals! Thankful that God has surrounded Otto Stokes and I with people who are obedient to God and show His love in this world and in our lives specifically! Pastor Bermie spoke into our marriage even before he officially married us, for that I am forever grateful! Please consider getting his book for yourself and loved ones!
I’ve been telling so many people that you are a great writer. I had no idea you were writing a book! Congratulations, brother Bermie! Can’t wait to read it!!!
I love the author’s personal stories from the devotions that highlight each event where God’s presence is felt and seen. The wonderful distinction from these devotionals is that there is a concluding thought that summarizes and emphasize the lesson of the devotion which focuses on the lesson which i love and is not found in many devotionals. Followed by a prayer that guides me to think of my circumstances and others, then reflection questions that give a further engages my mind on the topic and lastly scriptures which provide deeper insights on God’s words and His presence in our every step.
Truly appreciated Bermie’s honest, relatable, & Christ-centered insights into many of life’s challenges. It’s an encouraging book that re-enforces God’s faithfulness throughout our lives. Would highly recommend this devotional to all.
This book served as a poignant reminder of the challenges we face each day and offered valuable insights on how to strengthen our relationship with God throughout life’s journey. We are grateful to Pastor Bermie Dizon for sharing his wisdom and eagerly anticipate his next book.
Refreshed my spirit and must read book for 2025.
This devotional is oxygen to the soul in a world where many are suffocating from spiritual, physical, and emotional challenges and uncertainties. It is a daily dose of spiritual guidance and strength.
