💁🏻 Concept: Independence

Independence refers to the truth that God is self-sufficient and does not rely on anyone or anything for His existence, power, or glory. He is entirely independent of His creation and needs nothing from us to fulfill His purposes. Yet, despite His independence, God graciously invites us to partner with Him in His work and to bring Him glory. This truth should humble us, reminding us that we are utterly dependent on Him for every breath, provision, and blessing.

📖 Bible Readings: Acts 17:24-25

(Genesis 1 & 2; Isaiah 40:28; Psalm 50:12-15; 1 Timothy 6:15-16; Romans 11:34-36; John 14:15; Matthew 28:18-20)

🙏🏼 Prayer:

Lord, You are completely independent, needing nothing from me or anyone else. Yet, You graciously allow me to be part of Your plan. I thank You for Your sovereignty and for choosing to work through me. Help me to live with the awareness that I am utterly dependent on You for every breath and daily provision. May this truth lead me to deeper humility, trust, and worship, knowing that You are the Source of all things. I pray that You will use me to advance the Great Commission of Jesus Christ. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
