Where do you dwell?
Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.
- Psalm 91:1–2
Do you live aware of God’s presence in your life? The Lord never abandons you; He is with you at all times and in every situation. If you feel overwhelmed or anxious about your problems, it may be that you have become disconnected from the Lord and focused on the circumstances.
Return to the Lord’s shelter! Lean on Him, receive His love, and gain new strength to face this day. You will not regret it!
Surely God is my salvation;
I will trust and not be afraid.
The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense;
he has become my salvation.
- Isaiah 12:2
Focus on God’s power. Receive new strength from Him every day by maintaining fellowship with Christ. Remember what God has done for you and sing songs of praise and worship before Him. Do not neglect your relationship with God: talk with Him every day, bringing your concerns to Him and receiving everything He wants to give you. Only then will you be able to face each day while holding firmly to His hand.
Remain sheltered in the shadow of the Most High and live each day under His guidance. With God in first place, your life will be much better!

Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? “So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
- Matthew 6:27 (NKJV)
Take some time to thank God for all the things He has given you. Don’t focus on what you don’t have or don’t want. Look around you and recognize everything God has done and continues to do for you. Seek the Lord, love Him with all your heart, and be grateful for His care in your life. A thankful heart is prepared to receive many more blessings. Do you believe that?

Stop lying and speak the truth
Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to your neighbor, for we are all members of one body.
- Ephesians 4:25
As children of God, we are called to speak the truth at all times. When we receive Jesus into our hearts, we move from darkness to light, from death to life, and from falsehood to truth. Our words and actions should testify to the transformation we have experienced.
Telling the truth isn’t always easy, but it’s what we must do. We need to be guided by God and filled with His love so we can speak the truth at the right time and in the right way, without harming others. Sometimes lying may seem easier, but it always brings painful consequences. Obeying God is always the better choice.
Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.
- Colossians 3:9–10
Are you in a difficult situation and tempted to lie as a way out? Don’t do it. Wait on God and pray that He gives you wisdom and helps you walk in truth, speaking it at the right time. Allow the Holy Spirit to renew your heart, guide you, and show you what to say and when to say it.
God delights in those who act truthfully (Proverbs 12:22). Please Him with all that you are, including your words and always speak the truth.
