Protected — Safe in the Strong Name of the Lord
Day 4: Names carry weight. In the ancient world, a name was more than a label—it revealed identity, character, reputation, and even power. So when Scripture declares that “the name of the Lord is a strong fortress,” it is proclaiming something deeply theological and deeply personal. It’s not merely saying…

Protected — Lifted High on the Rock
Day 3: David knew trouble. He was not writing from a peaceful retirement but from a life marked by betrayal, warfare, personal failure, and the unrelenting opposition of enemies. And yet, it is in this pressure that he declares the character of God: the Lord conceals, hides, and lifts. In…

Protected — Resting in the Shadow of the Almighty
Day 2: Psalm 91 opens with one of the most treasured images in all of Scripture: the soul that dwells in the shelter of the Most High finds rest—not tension, not striving, but rest—in His shadow. The picture here is one of complete dependence and deliberate nearness. The shadow of…

Protected — Hidden in the Grace of God
Day 1: Take time today to reflect on what you’re tempted to run to when life becomes overwhelming. Instead of fleeing to distractions, perfectionism, or isolation, make God your first refuge. Confess, draw near, and rest in the truth that Christ is your covering. You are not merely forgiven—you are…

When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching,…

In the Night, He Prayed
Luke 6:12 is a quiet verse, but not an empty one. It is filled with the soundless weight of devotion—the kind that stretches through the night when others are sleeping. In the days of growing crowds and rising opposition, Jesus retreats—not to rest, but to watch. Not to escape, but…

Faith That Sees Through the Storm
The following verse doesn’t just speak about creation. It speaks to every valley we walk through, every moment when affliction clouds our vision and we’re tempted to measure reality by what we see rather than what God has said. Hebrews 11:3 (BSB) declares, “By faith we understand that the universe…

Divided Over the Shepherd’s Voice
Here we see it again—the unavoidable reaction to truth: division. Jesus had just spoken words that no ordinary man could say. He declared Himself the Good Shepherd, the One who lays down His life for the sheep. He spoke of knowing His own and being known. He spoke of power…

Clothed for the Battle That Belongs to the Lord
Isaiah 54:17 (BSB) declares,“No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their vindication is from Me,” declares the LORD. Here is a promise not forged in ease, but in the context…
