Summary
In today’s devotional, we’re launching a brand new series seeking to position ourselves to receive more of the reality of God’s promises every day. There is so much available to you and to me in God that we fail to tap into. And today we’re looking specifically at how waiting on the Lord, sitting patiently and intentionally at his feet, positions us to receive God’s promise of strength. May God guide us to a better understanding, and deeper experience, of his promises today.
Our Scripture for today comes from Isaiah 40:31, and today's worship is But I Know You by Jillian Edwards.

Your gift will be DOUBLED to help more Spanish-speakers connect with God
Two years ago, First15 began a Spanish version called Primeros15. And God is using it to impact many lives. But today, he’s calling us to more.
More Spanish-speaking men and women connecting with him and impacting the culture around them.
That’s why we’ve just launched a summer campaign to deepen the reach and impact of Primeros15 — and why we’re asking you to jump in with us!
We’ve set a $100,000 goal, and a generous $25,000 Matching Grant has been offered to double the impact of any gift given by July 31. So please give to help more Spanish-speakers connect with God.
