DAILY SCRIPTURE STUDY · DAY 16 OF 365
Name your concerns
Read Psalm 56:1–13The psalmist describes enemies and fear, then places trust in God and His word. He does not claim never to feel afraid. The turning point is what he does when fear comes. Let fear become a reason to turn toward God rather than evidence that you cannot pray.
Put the Word into practice
Name the fear and pair your prayer with a truthful statement from the psalm.
