Verse of the Day

A verse from an earlier day, with its reflection and prayer.

The Lord's counsel stands

“There are many devices in a man’s heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.”

Read in context Explain

Today's insight

Your mind may be full of plans, worries, and calculations as you begin this day. Yet Scripture reminds you that while "many devices" fill human hearts, it is "the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand." You can hold your own schemes loosely, resting in the quiet assurance that God's purpose is steady, reliable, and unshakable.

Reflect

Which of your own plans are you gripping too tightly today, and can you trust the Lord’s counsel above them?

Prayer

Lord, my heart is crowded with my own ideas and desires for how life should go. Teach me to yield my plans to You, trusting that Your counsel alone will stand. Guide my steps in Your enduring purpose today. Amen.
