Joyce Meyer Devotional for the day – Be Secure

Be Secure
– From Start Your Day Right by Joyce Meyer

Psalms 18:1-2
will love You, O Lord, my strength.
2The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer;
My God, my strength, in whom I will trust;
My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.


God can strengthen us to the point that we can make progress even during trouble. The psalmist said of God, “He makes my feet like hinds’ feet [able to stand firmly or make progress on the dangerous heights of testing and trouble]. You have girded me with strength for the battle” (Psalm 18:33).

Trials and testing do not come to cause us to lose stability. They are opportunities to prove the strength of God. We don’t have to waver in our confidence. Nothing will keep us from making progress today because God is our strength.
