Psalms 124:8

When your journey becomes rough, where do you turn for help? What do you do when your confidence is shaken as you face the harsh realities of your life? Psalms 121 is a much loved chapter Christians turn to for comfort and strength. Let us look a little more in depth at the first two verses to learn about the awesome God from whom our help comes.

We are bound to experience pain in our broken world. Sadly, that pain often comes as the result of other people’s actions. We’re called to forgive these people, but that’s easier said than done. So, how do we overcome unforgiveness? This devotional looks at the hard, but necessary, work of forgiveness, and invites us to move past hurt to wholeness.

Without deep thinking, there is no thankfulness. Thanksgiving goes beyond a special day on your calendar; it is a time to give a heartfelt appreciation to God for what he has done for you personally. In this 6-day devotional, you will learn critical components of thanksgiving.

If you approach worship from a consumer perspective—asking, “What do I get out of this?”—you will miss the true purpose of worship. Worship is not about personal preference, entertainment, or convenience; it’s about centering our hearts on God and giving Him the glory He deserves. When we reduce worship to what pleases us, we place ourselves at the center instead of God. True worship shifts the focus away from our wants and toward the worthiness of the One who created us, redeemed us, and reigns over us.
