It’s in His Hands
Aug 25, 2021
Today’s Scripture
Psalm 27:1, NIVThe LORD is my light and my salvation–whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life–of whom shall I be afraid?
Today’s Word
Are you worrying about your children, stressed out over your job, or discouraged because of a disappointment, thinking it’s not going to work out? We need to live with the attitude of the psalmist David. He had all kinds of things come against him–people, armies, even his own family–and yet he would say to you about your situation, “God’s got this. He’s directing your steps. He’s bringing the right people across your path and your children’s paths. He has beauty for the ashes, and right now He’s working behind the scenes. Dare to believe, dare to trust. Be still and know that He is God. He has you in the palms of His hands.”
Don’t worry or fear when you face obstacles that are bigger than you. It’s an opportunity for God to show you He’s God. It’s one thing to believe God has power to do the impossible. But God wants you to do more than just believe; He wants you to experience His power. He will show you His greatness.
Prayer for Today
Father, thank You that You are my light and my salvation. You are the stronghold of my life, so I need not fear. When things come against me, help me to remember that You have it in Your hands. I want to experience Your power and know Your greatness. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
