Day 3: Setting the Lord Always Before You

Reading: Psalm 16:8; Psalm 27:1

David made a deliberate daily choice to center his thoughts on the Lord. "I have set the Lord always before me" wasn't a passive hope but an intentional practice. When God is positioned at your right hand, you will not be shaken—not because circumstances won't challenge you, but because your foundation is unshakeable. What would change if you truly made the Lord your first thought in every situation? Before responding to that difficult person, before spiraling into worry, before making that decision—what if you paused and acknowledged His presence? The Lord is your light, your salvation, your stronghold. When He is your reference point for everything, fear loses its grip. Today, practice positioning God before every moment, every conversation, every concern.

Reflection Question: How can you practically "set the Lord always before you" throughout your day today?
