Good morning 🌞
Who are you trusting in? Is it yourself or someone else? God has a word for us.
“This is what the Lord says: ‘Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans, who rely on human strength and turn their hearts away from the Lord.’
They are like stunted shrubs in the desert,
with no hope for the future. They will live in the barren wilderness, in an uninhabited salty land.
“But blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green,
and they never stop producing fruit.” Jeremiah 17: 1-8 (NLT).
No matter how well meaning they are our fellow human beings are guaranteed to disappoint us sooner or later. It’s just part of the human condition. Ponder and have a blessed day and week.
Greetings 👋
God is on the move in prayer groups across America. Let revival and unity of purpose unite and empower us.
“I will praise the Lord at all times. I will constantly speak his praises.
I will boast only in the Lord; let all who are helpless take heart.
Come, let us tell of the Lord’s greatness; let us exalt his name together.
I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears.
Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy; no shadow of shame will darken their faces.
In my desperation I prayed, and the Lord listened; he saved me from all my troubles.
For the angel of the Lord is a guard;
he surrounds and defends all who fear him.”
Psalm 34: 1-7 (NLT).

Here’s my prayer for today.
“Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law.”
Psalm 119: 18 (NIV).
‼️Below are the verses the Lord gave me today.
What can you glean from these verses ? Do they speak to your heart or situation?
“Hear me, my God, as I voice my complaint; protect my life from the threat of the enemy.
Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the plots of evildoers.
They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim cruel words like deadly arrows.
They shoot from ambush at the innocent; they shoot suddenly, without fear.
They encourage each other in evil plans, they talk about hiding their snares; they say, “Who will see it?”
They plot injustice and say, “We have devised a perfect plan!” Surely the human mind and heart are cunning.
But God will shoot them with his arrows; they will suddenly be struck down.
He will turn their own tongues against them and bring them to ruin; all who see them will shake their heads in scorn.
All people will fear; they will proclaim the works of God and ponder what he has done.
The righteous will rejoice in the Lord and take refuge...
