1 Samuel 12:20

A strong foundation matters. Some of the toughest leadership seasons are often the most stabilizing, ultimately producing all the right conditions for deeper growth. Over the next four days, we will review biblical truths and practical leadership tips that will challenge you, equip you, and encourage you as you build a foundation of confidence in a God whose strength is greater than any challenge that may come your way.

Are you ready to embark on a journey of turning your experiences into heartfelt devotion? Join us on a four-day devotional focusing on transforming life's data into genuine praise. Through biblical examples, each day you will learn about the importance of recognizing God's presence in your life and what happens when you do or don't. Together, we will explore powerful scriptural examples that illustrate how to capture these moments of grace, mercy, and God's faithfulness, and you will learn the importance of cultivating a life of devotion to God.

David was a humble shepherd who God chose to be king. We can learn three things about God from David’s life: God can use anyone, God can forgive anyone who repents of their sins, and God should be worshipped by everyone. Through it all, David was a man after God’s own heart.

Discipleship works against fear. As we obey God’s commands, we entrust ourselves to him. Like the students attending the schools founded by D. L. Moody in Northfield, MA, God’s people “are encouraged to test the meaning and value of the Bible’s teachings experimentally, by acting upon them, and living them out.” As we “test experimentally” the word of God, we will find that we will have fewer and fewer reasons to be afraid.
