Day 2 of 7
Resting in the Father's Love
Shuttering the Past and Moving Forward in Love
Anchor Scriptures
Isaiah 26:3 (NKJV)
You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.
John 3:16 (NKJV)
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
James 1:17 (NKJV)
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.
Devotional Reading
Rest grows as you place your confidence in the Father’s unchanging character. He is good, His gifts are good, and His love for you is secure. When anxious thoughts make Him seem distant or uncertain, turn your attention back to who He has revealed Himself to be. You are His child; you do not pray to earn His love or prove your worth. You pray from a relationship He has already given you, allowing His love to quiet your heart and steady your trust.
Today's Confession
“Father, I choose to trust Your character. You do not change, and Your love toward me is secure. I receive Your love and allow my heart to rest in You. I will pray from relationship, not from performance. In Jesus Name, Amen.”
