Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Don't you love the term for God's people when they live for him? They are "his faithful ones"! The Lord is committed to his people. He will not forget his people, those who seek to honor him by displaying his righteous character, gracious compassion, and faithful love and justice (Exodus 34:6). God has promised to honor his promises to his people and preserve them with his protecting power, forever. As God has promised, "Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you" (Deuteronomy 31:6; Hebrews 13:5-6).

My Prayer...

Eternal and Faithful Father, thank you for your great promises. I am thrilled at the reminder of your faithful presence in my life. I fully believe I can entrust my future to you and that you will bring me into your presence with victory and great joy. Thank you for my sure and steadfast hope. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
