Thoughts on Today's Verse...

God's story through the history of his people, Israel, in the Old Testament is one of triumph, protection, and faithfulness despite his people's wayward attitude. Just as God was with Israel, so also God is with us. God cares for us. God hears our prayers. God longs to bless and protect us. God longs to strengthen and uphold us. Let's put our hope in him and trust that he "will uphold" us with his "righteous right hand."

My Prayer...

O God of creation, you are my God. I choose to put my faith in you! I long to bring you honor and glory. So, please stir my courage to live victoriously and passionately for you. I trust that as I display your character and live for your glory, you will strengthen and uphold me with your mighty presence within me and by your mighty arm of grace around me. In you, O Lord, I have placed my hope. In Jesus' name, I declare your glory and my allegiance to you. Amen.
