Do Not Lose Heart
Today's Bible Reading

Focus Scripture
"So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day."
2 Corinthians 4:16
Prepare Your Heart
Some seasons feel exciting. Others simply feel exhausting. Paul reminds us that God's work in us isn't measured by our circumstances but by His ongoing renewal. Whether you're beginning another school year, carrying burdens at work, caring for family, or simply feeling weary, the Lord has not stopped working. Today, ask Him to renew your heart.
Pray
Thank God that His mercies are new every morning and His strength never runs out.
Pray for students who are beginning another school year. Ask God to give them courage to stand for Christ and wisdom to make godly choices.
Pray for teachers, administrators, coaches, and school staff. Ask God to sustain them and give them opportunities to reflect Christ.
Bring your own burdens honestly before the Lord. Ask Him to renew your faith, hope, and joy today.
Pray for someone in our church who may be carrying unseen burdens. Ask God to encourage them and remind them they are not alone.
Pray for your One More. Ask God to strengthen the believers already in their life and continue drawing them toward Himself.
Pray slowly today. Don't hurry through your requests. The Lord isn't rushed, and you don't have to be either.
One More
Reach out to someone who may be discouraged. A simple text, phone call, or prayer can become an unexpected reminder of God's care.
