Psalm 34:8 (NIV) — Taste and See That the Lord Is Good Live from London, England — where faith meets the world in daily prayer and global hope. United States • Canada • Australia • New Zealand • South Korea • Singapore Gratitude • Goodness • Hope As evening arrives, there is something valuable about taking a moment to look back before looking ahead. Some parts of today may have stretched your faith, while others quietly reminded you that God was present all along. Even on ordinary days, His goodness is often found in simple moments—a kind word, an answered prayer, unexpected strength or a quiet sense of peace. Before today comes to its close, let us thank Him for His faithful care. Psalm 34:8 (NIV) “Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.” Heavenly Father, thank You for Your goodness that has followed us throughout this day. Lord Jesus, open our eyes to recognise Your hand at work, even in the moments we may have overlooked. Holy Spirit, help us to become people with grateful hearts, choosing thankfulness over complaint and faith over fear. Teach us to remember Your faithfulness in every season and to trust You with tomorrow as confidently as we have trusted You today. Fill our homes with Your peace, our hearts with quiet joy and our lives with a deeper awareness of Your presence. May we finish this day resting in the certainty that You are always good. Today we declare that fear will not win, because the Lord is good, His love endures and His faithfulness never fails. We pray for every listener joining us from the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Korea, Singapore and across the world. May the goodness of God encourage your heart and remain with you throughout this evening. Señor Jesús, gracias por Tu bondad y Tu fidelidad. Amén. Senhor Jesus, obrigado pela Tua bondade e fidelidade. Amém. Panginoong Jesus, salamat sa Iyong kabutihan at katapatan. Amen.
