Day 20 — Resh (ר): Renewed in the Headship of Christ

Resh (ר) represents the head, the beginning, renewal, and humility.

It stands at the threshold — the turning point between what has been planted and what is about to be sealed.

In Hebrew thought, resh can symbolize both rasha (the wicked) and rachamim (mercy). It reminds us that renewal comes not from perfection, but repentance.

As we enter these final three days — the phase of fulfillment — Resh invites us to bow low so we may rise whole.

Unity in Christ begins here: in a renewed mind, a humbled spirit, and a willingness to see others through the lens of redemption.

Just as the sun rises anew each morning, so too does the Spirit renew our hearts.

Resh asks us to remember that the journey of unity is not about returning to who we were, but becoming who we were always meant to be.

“Do not be conformed to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” — Romans 12:2

“Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus.” — Philippians 2:5-6

“You were taught… to be made new in the attitude of your minds; to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.” — Ephesians 4:23–24

Community Practice

Begin today with repentance and renewal.

Ask: Where have I been leading without listening?

Bless those in leadership — in your church, home, or community — by praying for their humility and clarity.

End the day by surrendering every thought back to Christ, the Head of the Body.

Prayer / Declaration

“Lord, renew my mind and purify my heart.

Let me see others with Your eyes and love with Your mercy.

May this renewal mark the beginning of my sealing — not by effort, but by grace — in the unity of Christ.”

Story

In one congregation, every meeting began the same way.

Before strategy, before decisions, before any word was spoken — they would bow their heads and pray aloud,

“Lord, You are the Head of this house.”

Over time, this simple practice transformed the way they led. Egos softened. Conflicts quieted. Vision became clearer because it no longer came from competition.

Resh calls us back to that posture — the bowed head that begins every true act of unity.

When Christ is the Head, the Body moves as one.

Insight

Resh begins the journey of Fulfillment — the sealing of unity in Christ.

It reminds us that our oneness begins not in sameness, but in surrender.

The humble mind becomes the doorway to a divine renewal.
