Day 324 Bible Reading: Ezekiel 41-42, James 4, Psalm 118:8-29 and Proverbs 28:2 
Confidence can come from our knowledge, relationship with influential people, perhaps our boss, our supervisors, our elders, or it can come from money, our position, or social status. King David's confidence came from God alone. Paul's confidence came from the power of the Holy Spirit. How about you? Where does your confidence come from? From people or money, or does it come from Jesus? When you know who you are and your relationship with your Heavenly Father, then you will have full confidence in your father-son relationship because your Father is love and has everything for you.
"It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man. It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in princes." – Psalm 118:8-9 (English Standard Version)
"Thank you for giving us intellectual thinking, knowledge, and education. Lord, help us to trust in You and build our relationship with you entirely. So we can lay all our confidence in you instead of our knowledge, background, possessions, or people. In Jesus' name. Amen."
