Htû̌sò̌htò̌ 125:1

When a boat is not anchored, it drifts with the current. None of us should go through life wandering. Did you know that a journey of eleven days took the Israelites 40 years to complete? This devotional will help you understand how to live a life anchored on God and His promises.

7 Days Praying for Strength includes seven prayers inspired by the book of Psalms. When we are filled with joy, we will discover the fuel of these ancient songs, and when we are going through the valley of darkness, the Psalms will be a light shining upon us. Open your heart as you read through this reading plan. Here you will find God as your shelter of strength.

Psalms 120 through 134 are known as the songs of ascent, an ancient mixtape for God’s people journeying to Jerusalem to worship the Lord. Solomon built the temple there, and the glory of God filled that place. In this plan, John Greco explores six of the songs of ascent, providing application for our modern-day journey as image-bearers of God. Scripture quotations used within the plan are taken from the NIV.

You are loved. God sees you, knows your heart, and invites you to meet Him in prayer. During these 7 days, we come before God together with gratitude, faith, and everything that is on our hearts. We pray for our families, for peace, protection, and for the people around us. God calls us to be intercessors. We pray for Germany, Israel, and the nations of the world. Stay close to God during these days. He hears you and works through your prayers.
