Devotional Reflection

LovePeaceGratitudeHope

A competent shepherd provides his sheep with the resources they need to survive. But Psalm 23 reveals that only the supreme Shepherd provides for His flock. By pleading with God to provide our Christian family members with whatever they need to carry out His good work, let's offer them access to His strength.

Prayer

Please provide your people access to the power of your Spirit so that we might do great things in our day and age, just as the early Christians accomplished in theirs. I hope everything turns out for your glory. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
