😊☀️👋🏻 Good morning, friend!

How are you feeling as we near the end of the week? Today, I’m excited to share a passage that reminds us of the incredible blessings of living in relationship with God. In Leviticus 26, God outlines what it means to be His covenant people—victory over struggles, provision in abundance, and the most extraordinary promise: His presence among us.

Let’s take some time to savor this truth and what it means for our daily lives.

🙏 HUMBLE

Begin this time pondering the following questions:

1. What are you thankful for today?

2. What burdens, fears, or areas of sin do you need to release to God today?

Now, let’s ask God to help us find HOPE in Him today:

“Lord, open my heart and mind to Your Word today. Help me to see the hope You have for me in these pages. Shine Your light on every truth, and guide me to understand, trust, and apply what You reveal. May Your presence transform my heart and fill me with the hope only You can give. Amen.”

📖 OBSERVE

Now, let’s observe what God has to say in His Word:

Today's Readings:
READ: Leviticus 26:7-13

Today's Devotional:
The promises in this passage are stunning. God doesn’t just promise physical blessings like harvests or safety—He promises Himself. “I will walk among you; I will be your God, and you will be my people.” These words reveal a God who isn’t distant but deeply relational, longing to be close to His children.

God’s covenant reminds us that He is faithful to His people, empowering them to face every challenge and providing for their needs. In a world that often feels uncertain, this promise of God’s presence is our greatest comfort and strength.

Through Jesus, this covenant takes on even deeper meaning. Christ’s sacrifice brings us into relationship with God, and His Spirit dwells within us. We no longer need to strive for His favor—it’s ours because of His grace. Living in this confidence means trusting in His promises and walking boldly in His love.

As you reflect on this truth today, remember that you are never alone. God walks with you, provides for you, and loves you with an everlasting love. Let His covenant faithfulness fill your heart with hope and joy.

Reflection Questions:
