Psalms 146:1-10. Verse 3, don’t trust princes. As political debate intensifies, how can I obey this warning from God yet still be a fully engaged citizen?
Joshua 24:1-33. Verse 15, what are some specific, practical ways in which I’ll have to choose today between serving the true and living God or serving some false God?
II Corinthians 3:4-18. Verse 18, how the Holy Spirit changes us. What one change do I desire above all else that God would bring about in me at this point in my life?
Luke 5:27-32. Verse 31, related, what specific work of cleansing or cure shall I pray for Jesus the Physician of Souls to effect in me today?
