Tuesday, July 15 – When You Pass Through the Waters

Read Isaiah 43:1–2 here.

Reflection:
“You are mine,” God says. He doesn’t promise we’ll avoid deep waters, but He promises we’ll never face them alone. When we’re overwhelmed, His presence is our rescue.

Application:
Name a “deep water” moment in your life. How might God have been present even there?

Prayer:
Lord, remind me You walk with me through fire and flood. Amen.

Devotion - Monday, 08/04/2025 - "God Is Our Refuge"

Monday, August 4 – God Is Our Refuge Read Psalm 46:1–7. “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” The psalmist paints a vivid picture: mountains falling, waters roaring, nations in uproar. Yet in this upheaval, he declares confidence in God. Refuge isn’t a place where storms don’t exist—it’s where we are sheltered as they rage. God doesn’t promise a life free from trouble, but He offers Himself as a fortress when everything else shakes. We often place our trust in fragile refuges—careers, relationships, even our health. But true security lies in God’s unchanging presence. He alone provides the strength that sustains when all else fails. Reflect: Where do you instinctively run when life feels unstable? How can you make God your first refuge? Pray:  God, be my shelter in every storm. Teach me to rest in Your unshakable strength. Amen.

Sunday, March 23, 2025 Scripture: Psalm 63:1-8 Devotion: "O God, you are my God, I seek you, my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water." The psalmist's words capture that deep, primal longing we all feel—a thirst that only God can quench. Like parched ground that cracks open, waiting for rain, our lives often reveal a profound thirst for something more. We try to satisfy it with achievement, relationships, or possessions, but the soul knows what it truly needs. The psalmist found that satisfaction in God's presence, declaring "My soul is satisfied as with a rich feast." What are you thirsting for today? Where have you been looking for satisfaction? True fruitfulness begins with recognizing our deepest need—not just for what God gives, but for God's very presence. When we root ourselves in this relationship, everything else finds its proper place. Daily Action Steps: Sit quietly...
