Mid-week Devotional:
Week of February 8, 2026
Scripture for this week’s Mid-week Devotional comes from the Old Testament book of Psalms, Psalm 34:4.
Hear the Word of God,
“4 I sought the LORD, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.”
This is God’s word for God’s people. Thanks be to God. AMEN.
Of all the books of the Bible the book of Psalms is one of my most favorite books. It seems that no matter what is occurring in my daily life there is a verse or a chapter in Psalms that brings me peace.
When I wake up during the night and all the “what ifs” of life begin to bombard me I begin to silently talk to God for I know that God is not far away from me. I know that God is present surrounding me with love and grace. I am able to share with God all the “what ifs” for God knows everything about me; my hopes, my desires, and most importantly God knows what it is that I truly need…
In the quiet of the night, there comes calmness and peace.
In the quiet of the night, I am able to rest.
In the quiet of the night, I am able to sleep deeply.
When the light of day breaks, I awake knowing that God is there beside me.
In the light of day God remains beside me; “… delivering me from all my fears” (v. 4).
In the days and nights ahead of you as you journey through life, may you remember that God is always there beside you, 24/7.
God is to your right.
God is to your left.
God is behind you.
God is in front of you.
God is beneath you lifting you up and God is above you shielding you from the storms of life.
May you remember God loves you.
Peace be with you.
AMEN.
