Joyce Meyer Daily Devotional – 23rd January 2026 (Thursday) Message
TOPIC: Enjoying God’s Presence
Draw near to God and He will draw near to you . . . — James 4:8 (ESV)
TODAY’S MESSAGE
You can enjoy God’s presence anywhere, at any time. He’s not confined to church services, prayer times, or “spiritual” moments—He’s with you in the grocery store, during your commute, and in every ordinary part of life. God is never more than a thought away.
When you come to Him honestly, He’s always faithful to meet you right where you are—and ready to do something amazing in your life.
Start today by taking just a few quiet minutes to talk with God or spend time in His Word. Share your heart with Him, listen for His voice, and let His presence refresh you.
The more time you spend with God, the more you’ll want to. He is your source of joy, peace, strength, and contentment—and through time in His presence, you’ll continue to grow into everything His Word says you can be.
PRAYER OF THE DAY: Lord, thank You for being with me wherever I go. Help me stay aware of Your presence in every moment and find joy, peace, and strength through time spent with You, amen.
