Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Since God could speak the universe into existence and knows our names and the number of hairs on each of our heads, surely we know we can go to him for our help. Let's lift our eyes and hearts to El Shaddai, Lord God of the Mountains. Let's remember the Almighty sees our needs, hears our requests, cares about our hearts, and longs to make his help available and his home present with us.

Video Commentary...

We've included Phil's ToGather video from four years ago as an added blessing to our verse today:

My Prayer...

Holy and All-powerful Abba Father, I do look to you for help. You are the one true source of redemption, power, comfort, encouragement, hope, and excellence in my life. Please give me the wisdom to know your will and choose your will for my life. Thank you for being faithful through the ages to your people and to me. In Jesus' name, I seek you, praise you, and thank you. Amen.
