Thoughts on Today's Verse...

What guards your heart from fear? Only one protector is sure and faithful, his name is the Lord. He is our confidence and protector. Prayer and the Holy Spirit are our assurance of God's deliverance. In our current afflictions, either we will be delivered FROM death to serve God powerfully or delivered THROUGH death to share with him in eternity (Philippians 1:18-26). Our fates and futures remain in God's gracious hands!

My Prayer...

Almighty Deliverer, please give me the courage to live for you with passion, no matter the cost. I trust, dear Father, that you are able to keep me from stumbling and will present me "before your glorious presence without fault and with great joy" (Jude 1:24)! In Jesus' name, I confidently pray. Amen.
