God, Our Keeper

Today's Word:

"The Lord will keep you from all harm—He will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore." – Psalm 121:7-8 (NIV)

Thoughts on Today's Word:

These verses reassure us of God’s constant protection and care. Life can often feel uncertain, and challenges may arise that leave us feeling vulnerable. But this passage reminds us that God is always watching over us, not just in the big moments, but in our daily comings and goings. His care is eternal, extending beyond time. As our Keeper, He doesn’t promise a life free of challenges, but He promises His presence and safeguarding through every circumstance.

Prayer of the Day:

Heavenly Father, thank You for being my Keeper, watching over my life with love and care. I trust in Your protection and guidance, knowing You are always with me. Help me to walk in faith and not fear, resting in the assurance that You hold my life in Your hands. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Reflection:

How can you lean into God’s protection when you face uncertainty or fear? Do you trust that God is not only watching over your present but also your future? Take a moment today to thank God for His unwavering care in your life.
