Joyce Meyer Daily Devotional 17th June 2026 (Wednesday) Message
TOPIC: Unwavering Trust
O my God, in You I [have unwavering] trust [and I rely on You with steadfast confidence], do not let me be ashamed or my hope in You be disappointed. — Psalm 25:2 (AMP)
TODAY’S MESSAGE
We read in today’s scripture about having “unwavering trust” and “steadfast confidence” in the Lord. Most of us would think, Oh, yes, I want to have unwavering trust and steadfast confidence in God! We instantly know that such firm, unshakeable trust in Him would increase our peace and stability. But this kind of trust and confidence does not form overnight. It takes time.
As we journey through life, most of us develop habits of worry, anxiety, and fear. We may also become self-reliant to some degree, trusting our own abilities instead of trusting God. We may learn to seek confidence in the things of the world, even though they continually prove faulty.
Overcoming ingrained habits in our thoughts or emotions is a process and unweaving them usually happens step by step over a period of weeks, months, or years.
This is why perseverance is so important. When your trust in God does waver, don’t feel condemned. Simply repent and choose to trust Him again. Every time you trust Him, and every time He comes through for you, your trust and confidence will grow stronger.
PRAYER OF THE DAY: Father, help me to grow continually in unwavering trust and steadfast confidence in You. In Jesus’ name, amen.
