ECWA Food for the Day – 29th July, 2025
David boldly invited God to examine his heart because he lived by clear godly values. He avoided the company of evildoers and stood firm on righteous ground. Can you do the same today?

Trust with God is mutual, when you fear and honour Him, He draws you close and even confides in you. Like Abraham and the disciples, you too can be part of God’s inner circle when you live in reverence and obedience.
When people fail us and betrayal runs deep, we can still trust in God. Like David, let your hope rest in the One who never fails, even when friends, family, or leaders do. God remains your sure refuge.
Everything we have, our time, wealth, and life itself, is on loan from God. Psalm 24 reminds us that we are only tenants on earth, accountable to the true Owner. Let’s live as faithful stewards of what God has entrusted to us.
In a world filled with cruelty and chaos, we need more than just knowledge, we need God’s power and strength. Just like David cried out for God’s strength in Psalm 22, we too can ask for the divine attribute that fits our current situation.
Feeling abandoned doesn’t mean God has left you. In Psalm 22, David’s cry of despair mirrors Christ’s suffering. But even in pain, the Psalm ends with praise, reminding us that God’s presence is constant, even in the silence of our trials.
David knew that victory didn’t come from weapons or strategy, it came from God. Psalm 21 is a song of thanksgiving for triumphs made possible by divine intervention. As modern believers, we must learn to celebrate our victories and answered prayers, giving all glory to God who wins our battles.
From the skies above to the laws of nature, God’s fingerprints are everywhere. Psalm 19 reminds us that creation itself declares His glory, and His Word perfects our souls. Even without the Bible, nature leaves us without excuse, God is real, and He speaks through both His world and His Word.
David was up against a powerful enemy, too strong for him—but not for God. Like the Israelites in Egypt, he experienced divine rescue because God delighted in him. God is still the power of the powerless, ready to intervene on behalf of those who trust Him.
For twenty long years, David endured hatred and relentless pursuit by King Saul. Yet, instead of bitterness, he sang a song of love to God, his Rock, Shield, and Deliverer. Like David, we too can find safety in God and define our own experience of Him in vivid, personal ways.
