Verse of the Day: Joshua 1:9

☀️ Good morning, friends!

Today, as the sun climbs the sky, casting away the darkness, let's also allow God's Word to cast away any fear or doubt we may be holding. This morning, we focus on a commandment coupled with an incredible promise—a source of strength for anyone who's ever faced the unknown.

Verse of the Day

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."

Imagine standing at the threshold of an entirely new phase in your life. Perhaps it's a new job, a new relationship, or even a new challenge that you didn't choose. The uncertainty can be paralyzing.

Joshua felt this acutely as he stepped into Moses' shoes—talk about intimidating. Yet, God's words to him are not suggestions, they are commands: "Be strong and courageous." But God doesn't stop at commanding; He promises His eternal presence as our rock-solid reason for courage.

The question to ponder today is, where does your courage come from? When the unknown stares you in the face, are you leaning on your own understanding, or are you relying on the ever-present God who commands you to be unflinchingly brave?

Prayer of the Day

Heavenly Father,

Thank you for being my unyielding strength and constant guide. Today, as I face the world's challenges, fill me with the courage that only comes from You. Help me to step out in faith, knowing Your presence is my shield and fortress.

In the empowering name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.

Quote of the Day

"Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened."

— Billy Graham

A Christian newsletter we highly recommend

A group of Christian millennials think they’ve fixed the news…

It’s called The Pour Over, and it has two goals:

  1. Keep its readers informed about world events

  2. Keep its readers focused on Christ

That means providing politically neutral coverage of events and pairing it with brief Biblical reminders.

The question is… are they hitting the mark? See what you think, subscribe in just one click.
