Take 2-3 minutes to quiet yourself and ask God to speak to you today through your devotional time.
Reading: Psalm 27:1, 13–14
Be sure to highlight or note anything that stands out to you while you read.
After reading the passage, take the next 5-10 minutes and spend time reflecting on what you read. You can write these things down in a journal or record them in your phone. Be attentive to both what you highlighted in the passage and what is going on in your life.
When fear and uncertainty rise, David’s declaration reminds us where confidence begins—in God’s unshakable presence. God doesn’t remove every trial, but He strengthens us through them. Courage isn’t the absence of fear; it’s faith in God’s goodness even while we wait.
Now, take 10 minutes to seek God in prayer…
- Begin your time in prayer by taking 1-3 minutes to sit in silence (You can take longer if you sense the Spirit already beginning to speak to you).
- Pray through the things you sensed God speaking to you through the Scriptures or pray the following prayer: Pray for renewed courage to trust God’s goodness while you wait for His timing.
- Close by taking 5 minutes to sit in silence, asking God if there is anything else He wants to speak to you today.
Take Action:
- Speak Psalm 27:1 out loud as a declaration of faith today.
- Encourage someone who’s waiting on God—send them a message or pray with them.
