Today we’re anchored in Book of Psalms 26, a prayer from King David where he’s asking God to examine his life, not just bless it. And that’s the part that hits. David says, “Test me… try my heart and my mind.” He’s inviting God to check him, to refine him, to expose anything that’s off. That’s a different mindset, because most people want results without examination. We want the wins, the progress, the growth, but we don’t always want to look at what needs to change internally.
Today we’re anchored in Book of Psalms 25, and this whole chapter is a prayer from King David about trust, guidance, and humility. And if there’s one theme that stands out, it’s this… David is not asking for quick results, he’s asking for direction.
Today we’re pulling from Book of Psalms 23 and 24, and this combination is powerful because it gives you two perspectives you need to carry into this week. Psalm 23 shows you that God is your Shepherd, and Psalm 24 reminds you that He is your King. That means He’s both personal with you and sovereign over everything around you.
Today we’re anchored in Second Epistle to Timothy 1:7, “For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.” And this right here is a mindset shift if you really take it in. Because if we’re being honest, fear shows up heavy in trading. Fear of losing money, fear of being wrong, fear after a loss, fear of missing out on a move, and if you don’t recognize it, that fear will quietly control your decisions. You’ll hesitate on good setups, jump into bad ones, cut your winners too early, and hold onto losers too long. But this verse makes it clear, that kind of fear is not from God, so you don’t have to operate from it.
Today we’re anchored in Book of Isaiah 55:6, “Seek the Lord while He may be found; call upon Him while He is near.” And this verse carries a sense of urgency that we don’t always like to think about.
Today we’re anchored in First Epistle of Peter 5:8, “Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.” And this hits especially hard on a Friday.
Today we’re anchored in Second Epistle to the Corinthians 5:21, “For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” This verse is powerful because it shows what I like to call the great exchange.
Today we’re anchored in Gospel of Mark 13:33, “Be on guard, keep awake. For you do not know when the time will come.” This is all about awareness and readiness.
Today we’re anchored in Book of Isaiah 53:6, “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.” This verse is real because it calls all of us out. Nobody is exempt.
Today we’re anchored in Gospel of John 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.” This verse is the foundation. If you really understand this, it changes how you move in everything, including trading.
