PRAYER FOCUS: Father, Your joy is indeed my strength. Let Your Holy Spirit convict me today whenever I rely on myself. Amen.
(PART 2)
It is easy to forget that God is sovereign through every event in our lives. For our trust in Him to grow, we must press on and determine to place our confidence in Him and not in what we see.

HEART ISSUE: How do you react when the “unexpected” happens in your life? Do you willingly run into the Father’s arms and lean on His joy to sustain you?
PRAYER FOCUS: Father, not my will, but Yours be done. Holy Spirit, gently remind me of Your sovereignty so I will not forget that my confidence rests in You. Amen.
