DAILY READINGS: Exodus 33 to 34:3; Psalms 83-84; Acts 20:1-16

Lord, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O Lord our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. 2 Chronicles 14:11

Feeling powerless against the multitude of issues facing you today? There is help! The secular world feels they have the answers for all of life’s needs: financial, physical, spiritual, emotional, family, etc. They do not. As we learn to rest on His unchanging promises we find in Him the necessary strength to carry on no matter how large the obstacles before us. He promises “grace to help in time of need” (Heb. 4:16) and says, “My grace is sufficient” (2 Cor. 12:9). —W. H. G.

O God, our help in ages past, our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast, and our eternal home. —Isaac Watts
