Author: Evangelist Lisa Dalton

A Quiver Full of Purpose
Scripture: Psalm 127:5, NKJV

“Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them; They shall not be ashamed, but shall speak with their enemies in the gate.”

Devotion:
This verse concludes a Psalm that reminds us that unless the Lord builds our lives, our efforts are in vain. Here, the imagery of children as arrows in a warrior’s quiver evokes generational strength and divine blessing.

It’s not just about having many children, it’s about raising them with intention, purpose, and faith. A “full quiver” speaks of spiritual legacy: the people we nurture, mentor, and invest in who carry truth and hope forward into a world full of gates—places of decision, challenge, and confrontation.

The promise is joy—not just for the present, but for what our investment will become. It’s about being unashamed, confidently walking in purpose, and standing strong in the face of opposition.

Today’s Challenge:
Identify someone younger—or newer in faith—that you can encourage today. A kind word, a note, a prayer. You may be adding an arrow to your quiver, pointing them toward purpose.

Prayer:
Lord, help me pour into others with intention, knowing that the lives I shape today speak at the gates tomorrow. Fill my heart with joy as I watch Your work through them.  In Jesus’ name. Amen.
