From the LORD comes deliverance. May your blessing be on your people.
Thoughts on Today’s Verse…
God is The Great Deliverer! That’s his chosen expertise. Whether it was delivering the Israelites from Egypt through the Red Sea from Pharaoh’s army ages ago or rescuing a sinner from sin and death through Christ today, our God is The Great Deliverer! So, repeatedly pray today for people who need God’s deliverance from sin, death, disease, family conflict, addiction, financial concerns, legal matters, mental illness, abuse, sexual confusion, and temptation. We, his people, need God’s blessing, and we believe that our deliverance comes from the LORD. But even more, those who don’t know Jesus need God’s deliverance, and their deliverance comes from the LORD, too.
My Prayer…
Holy and Righteous Father, please deliver the friends I have on my heart today. Please release them from their bondage and bring them into a time of blessing, comfort, and assurance of your abiding presence. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
