Abide - Day 1

Day 1: God Is the Source,
Not the Outcome

Daily Reading: Psalm 90:1–2

Devotional Thought:

Psalm 90 was written by Moses, which helps us understand its message. At that time, the Israelites were in the wilderness without a permanent home—no land, temple, or fixed address. Calling God their dwelling place was a bold statement. Here’s why it matters:
  • God Himself is our home, not a building or stable circumstances. In Him, we find safety, identity, and belonging.
  • He is our security no matter where we are. Our surroundings may change, but God stays the same. When life shifts, God is still where we can live, rest, and find peace.
When we look at what Moses wrote and what Jesus says in John 15, we see that we don’t abide to earn love. We abide because we already belong.

Reflection:

  • Are there habits, thoughts, or attachments that pull you away from resting in God’s presence?
  • Am I treating God as the place I live—or just the place I run when things fall apart?

Big Idea:

Abiding in Christ means making your home in the Eternal One—the One “who is, and who was, and who is to come” Revelation 1:4.

Prayer:

Lord, teach me to remain in You as my true home—resting in Your unchanging presence even as everything around me shifts.
