Get to Know God

Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you.—Psalm 9:10 (NIV)
When you truly know God, you can trust Him completely, because He is always faithful and true to His word. God will never abandon those who seek Him. When you turn to Him wholeheartedly, you can be confident that He will guide you through whatever challenges you face in life.
Dear Lord, I trust Your wisdom and ask that You reveal yourself to me. Fill me with peace and understanding.

Fully Face Your Fear

The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?—Psalm 27:1 (NIV)
Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “He who is not everyday conquering some fear has not learned the secret of life.” Do you avoid fear at all costs, wasting time and energy running away from your worries? Instead of sidestepping the problem, know that with God at your side, you can fully face and feel your fear. You have the power and are free to walk through your worries and move beyond what is blocking you.
Dear Lord, fill me with Your peace which surpasses all understanding, and help me remain calm and centered on You in the face of fear.

Just for Today

Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.—Matthew 6:34 (ESV)
When you feel overwhelmed by a big project or goal, focus on today. What can you do right now that will help you succeed? Then, turn to God and ask for the patience and perseverance to keep moving forward just for today.
Lord, I have faith that I can finish what I start, and the process of working towards my goal is just as important as the result.

Learn Something New

Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.—Colossians 3:23–24 (ESV)
As children and college students go back to school, you too can reflect on something you want to change or develop. Now is the perfect time to set goals and try something different. Explore a new skill or hobby. Ask God to help you dream new dreams.
Lord, I’m ready to start something new, to discover and develop new talent.

Look to Your Heart

Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.—Luke 21:36 (NIV)
The above verse is a roadmap to safety and salvation. When you are at a crossroads between devotion and desire, what you want and what is best, don’t be led astray by temptation. Look to your heart for what you truly want and what will bring you closest to following God’s will.
Heavenly Father, sometimes I make life more difficult than it really is. Help me look to You first.

The Power of Patience

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.—Romans 12:12 (NIV)
Christian pastor A. W. Tozer brilliantly wrote, “Problems patiently endured will work for our spiritual perfecting. They harm us only when we resist them or endure them unwillingly.” Patience is a fruit of the Spirit, yet waiting periods can sometimes chip away at your trust. Recognize that God is in control even when things don’t seem to go your way. He will give you the desires of your heart in His time.
Lord, help me trust Your time and face my problems with patience and grace.

Walk in His Great Light

“The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. For those who lived in a land of deep shadows—light! sunbursts of light!”—Isaiah 9:2 (MSG)
God is the bright pathway to fulfilling your deepest longings and His Word will fill your heart with His light. Have faith that even when it feels like you are walking in the dark, prayer and Scripture will show you the way forward. In turn, your faith-guided journey can help others find their own way out of the darkness.
Heavenly Father, help me shine Your glorious light on those around me.

Overcome Mountainous Obstacles

He replied, “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.”—Luke 17:6 (NIV)
Jesus tells you that a fragment of faith is all you need to do the impossible. No matter how strong your faith is right now, it is enough. Even the smallest seed of trust in God can overcome mountainous obstacles.
Lord, help me put this truth into action and firmly believe with all my heart that anything is possible.

Strength in Balance

A person can do nothing better than to eat and drink and find satisfaction in their own toil. This too, I see, is from the hand of God, for without him, who can eat or find enjoyment?—Ecclesiastes 2:24–25 (NIV)
Are you looking to lead a more balanced life? Perhaps work or stress has taken over time that would be better spent enriching your spiritual life. When you feel off-center, turn to His Word. Scripture will help guide you to surrender your will for His, and in doing so, you will release your stress, have more energy and discover the perfect balance.
Dear Lord, fill me with Your Spirit—and guide me to take the time I need to focus on You.

Transformed by Grace

And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven.—Acts 9:3 (KJV)
In this passage , Saul was transformed from a persecutor of early Christians to a follower of Christ. God has the power to change people. Is there something in your life that you would like to transform—a negative way of thinking or a bad habit? Pray for Him to reveal His light of truth in your life.
Lord, help me to hear and heed Your call for me to change. Remove my impurities and use me for Your good.

The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.—Psalm 29:11 (NIV)
When you turn to God, He will give you strength. He created you to navigate difficult times, and because of His presence, you can move ahead with confidence and peace. When you feel tired and worn out, He will lift you up and renew you.
