Praying the Scriptures for Your Life is a great tool to draw each of us closer to God, especially in these uncertain times. As you pause to pray over the next thirty-one days, you will see God’s provision and power work miracles in your life. God’s Word is alive and active and sharper than any double-edged sword and is meant to draw us closer to the One who desires an intimate relationship with us.”
