Your Daily Prayer

In a world where we define ourselves by our jobs, roles, and accomplishments, it’s easy to forget the most important truth about our identity—we are children of God. In today’s prayer and devotional, Kristine Brown takes us to Ephesians 1 to rediscover what God says about who we are: loved, chosen, adopted into His family, and showered with His kindness. If life has worn you down and you’ve been living from a place of defeat instead of victory, this prayer will help you stand tall and confident in your God-given identity. Main Takeaways Your true identity is not found in titles, roles, or accomplishments—it’s found in being a child of God. Ephesians 1 reminds us that we are: Loved and chosen before the foundation of the world (Ephesians 1:4) Adopted into God’s family through Christ (Ephesians 1:5) Showered with God’s kindness, wisdom, and understanding (Ephesians 1:8) When we remember who God says we are, we can face challenges from a place of victory rather than defeat. God’s light floods our hearts so we can live with confident hope as His rich and glorious inheritance. Bible Verse Reference Ephesians 1:18 – “I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance.” Calls to Action Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer for more daily encouragement rooted in Scripture.

Many believers can recite John 3:16 by heart, but have you stopped to reflect on the verse that follows? In our daily prayer and devotional, Peyton Garland invites us to rediscover John 3:17—a reminder that Jesus did not come to condemn the world, but to save it. If your view of God has been shaped by fear, legalism, or religious trauma, this verse offers hope and healing. Instead of living under the shadow of condemnation, we can step into the freedom of Christ’s love, knowing His heart is for redemption, not punishment. Main Takeaways John 3:17 shows us Jesus’ mission is rooted in salvation, not condemnation. Fear-based faith distorts God’s character and keeps us from intimacy with Him. The gospel is not about our ability to please God, but about His desire to rescue and redeem us. Shifting the focus from ourselves to Christ transforms our relationship with Him. God’s heart is a safe place—full of hope, love, and protection. Bible Verse Reference John 3:17 – “For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.” Calls to Action Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer for daily encouragement rooted in God’s Word.

Have you ever felt stuck in a wilderness season—wandering from hope to hopelessness, unsure if God is still working? In this daily prayer and devotional, Jessica Van Roekel reflects on Isaiah 43:18–19 and reminds us that God is always doing something new, even when our surroundings feel barren. Like the Israelites in exile, we can become trapped in discouragement, shame, or the memory of past failures. But God calls us to lift our eyes, remember His faithfulness, and trust that He is making a way through the wilderness and streams in the desert. Main Takeaways God’s promises are not bound by our circumstances. Remembering God’s past faithfulness strengthens hope in the present. Shame over past mistakes can blind us to His new work in our lives. Even in deserts—whether by God’s leading or our own choices—He offers comfort, hope, and provision. We can trust Him to make a way forward when we can’t see one ourselves. Bible Verse Reference Isaiah 43:18-19 – “Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing…” Calls to Action Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer for daily encouragement in your inbox or podcast app. Share this episode with a friend who might be in a season of waiting or struggle.

Are you in a quiet season, waiting for God to move? Sometimes life feels like one long stretch of waiting, filled with lulls where God seems silent and answers feel far away. In today’s prayer and devotional, author Keri Eichberger reminds us that even when life feels stagnant, God’s presence is constant. He is not withholding good from us—He is actively pouring out blessings every day. The key is opening our eyes to notice His hand at work right where we are. Instead of focusing only on what’s ahead, we can experience joy and peace now by acknowledging the Savior’s presence in every moment. Main Takeaways God’s presence is constant, even in seasons of stillness or waiting. Focusing on what we wish would change can rob us of present joy. We often miss His blessings because our attention is fixed on the future rather than on Him. Acknowledging God’s daily provision renews our hope and restores joy. Waiting seasons are opportunities to deepen awareness of His goodness. Today's Bible Verse: Micah 7:7 – “But as for me, I will watch in hope for the LORD, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.” Calls to Action Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer for daily encouragement straight to your inbox or podcast feed.

Loneliness can creep in even when we’re surrounded by people. Sometimes it’s because we avoid small talk, sometimes because we fear being hurt, and sometimes because our own pride keeps us from deeper connections. In this daily prayer and heartfelt devotional, Kelly Balarie challenges us to look at how Jesus approached friendship—choosing to engage with people different from Him, investing in others even when it wasn’t comfortable. Through self-reflection and prayer, we are invited to consider new ways to endure in relationships, open up, and love others as Christ loves us. Today's Bible Verse: “The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’ But wisdom is proved right by her deeds.” – Matthew 11:19 NIV Key Takeaway: Friendship is not about what we can get from others, but about what we can give. By bearing with others, asking deeper questions, and staying present even when it feels awkward or challenging, we open the door to God’s work in our relationships. Prayer: Father, I am lonely. Restore meaningful relationships in my life. Help me be open-hearted, willing to listen, and to love as You have loved me. Send me friends and make me the kind of friend You’ve been to me. In Jesus’ name, Amen. Resources and Mentions: Feeling Lonely or Rejected? Remember This Promise of God.

Parenting is holy work—but also hard, messy, exhausting, and humbling. In this heartfelt devotional and prayer, Peyton Garland draws an unexpected connection between plant care and child-rearing, sharing how becoming a “plant lady” during pregnancy gave her new eyes to see how growth, nurture, and resilience apply to raising kids. Whether you’re parenting toddlers, teens, or navigating young adulthood, Peyton encourages you to plant flowers in the trenches. That means practicing vulnerability, modeling God’s grace, and creating an atmosphere of love, humility, and honesty within your home. Even when the days feel muddy or the nights are sleepless, God is with you in the thick of it. As Isaiah promises, the Lord will guide and strengthen you, turning your weary places into flourishing gardens. Today's Bible Verse: “The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.” – Isaiah 58:11 (NIV) 🌱 Takeaway Truths Every Parent Is a Gardener: Your home is the soil, your presence the water, your words the sunshine. Vulnerability Plants Seeds of Trust: When we show our humanity, we invite our children to do the same. God Is in the Trenches Too: We aren’t parenting alone. God walks with us, strengthens us, and blooms beauty even in our fatigue. Your Imperfection Isn’t a Barrier—it’s a Bridge: Let grace be the currency of your household, not perfection. 🙏 Prayer “Father God, just as you make beauty from ashes, you allow us to plant seeds of lasting hope in the thick of parenting. On our hard days raising resilient, God-fearing children, thank you for crawling through the mud with us and letting us watch your faith bloom in our households. We praise you for your steadfast goodness and love. In the strong name of Jesus, I pray.

In today’s prayer, Jaime Hampton, host of Praying Christian Women, vulnerably shares her journey with health anxiety — how it began, how it manifested physically and emotionally, and ultimately how God brought healing through prayer, community, and truth. Jaime encourages those walking a similar path to resist isolation and shame and instead embrace the freedom of bringing anxious thoughts to the Lord. This prayer is a lifeline for anyone battling worry over their health or the health of loved ones. Jaime reminds us: when we imagine a future filled with fear, we’re often picturing it without God. But Scripture teaches that He is always there, even in our worst-case scenarios. Today's Bible Verse: “We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” – 2 Corinthians 10:5 (NIV) Key Takeaways to Meditate On: Anxiety thrives in isolation; truth and healing begin with confession and community. Praise and thanksgiving can shift our focus and combat spiraling thoughts. Scripture like 2 Corinthians 10:5 reminds us we can take thoughts captive and surrender them to Christ. Even if the diagnosis is real, God is still present and working in every situation. Let’s Pray Together: “We demolish the picture our worry and fears create: a future that doesn’t even exist. A future devoid of Your presence. Thank You for being a redeemer, for the hope that even if our worst-case scenario were to come true, You would be there in it…” Click “Play” above to hear today’s full prayer. 🎧 About the Author: Jaime Hampton is a Christian author and the co-host of the Praying Christian Women podcast alongside Alana Terry.

Money can stir a host of emotions—gratitude, stress, hope, and guilt. In our daily prayer and devotional, Christine F. Perry shares a personal story of navigating unexpected expenses and the conviction she felt when she paid bills before giving her tithe. Her honesty invites us to reflect on our financial habits and where our hearts truly lie when it comes to money. Scripture is clear that our resources belong to God, and He calls us to steward them with wisdom and faithfulness. Tithing is more than a rule—it’s a spiritual act of surrender and trust. When we give God our “first fruits,” we acknowledge His provision and sovereignty over all areas of our lives. Today's Verses for Meditation: Psalm 24:1 (NKJV) – “The earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness, The world and those who dwell therein.” Deuteronomy 8:18 (NKJV) – “And you shall remember the LORD your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth…” 🕊 Key Takeaways Stewardship Is a Daily Surrender: Faithful financial decisions start with recognizing God as the source of all we have. Tithing Tests the Heart: Where we give first reflects where our trust and affections lie (Matthew 6:21). God Desires Freedom, Not Captivity: He calls us to be free from the grip of materialism and financial fear. Obedience Over Perfection: Even when we miss the mark, God welcomes our repentance and helps us realign our priorities. 🙏 Prayer “Lord, please help us live with open hands and obedient hearts. Teach us to seek Your Kingdom in all our financial decisions. Help us to reflect Your generosity, rely on Your provision, and resist the pull to put trust in wealth instead of You.” 📚 Related Articles on Crosswalk.com How to Tithe Even When You're Struggling Financially A Biblical Perspective on Financial Stewardship Is Money the Root of All Evil?

Life is full of beautiful moments, but we often rush through them without noticing the fingerprints of God. In today's prayer and devotional, Chelsey DeMatteis shares a personal story of how God revealed His presence during a time of uncertainty and nervous anticipation. As she stepped into a new experience—traveling without her child for the first time—Chelsey asked the Lord to show Himself in the everyday details. He answered through both visible signs and heartfelt encouragement. This devotional is a reminder that God wants to be seen and sought in our ordinary, daily moments. He delights when we boldly ask for His presence and pay attention to the ways He reveals His love and faithfulness. Whether through peace, kindness, or something as unexpected as a traced heart or late-night prayer, the Lord is near and active in our lives. Today's Verse: 📖 Romans 10:13 – “For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” 🕊 Key Takeaways Ask Boldly: God wants us to seek Him and ask to see His hand in our lives. Look Closely: Sometimes His answers come in subtle, everyday ways—a symbol, a word, or a moment of peace. He is Faithful: God consistently shows up in the lives of His children, even when we’re unsure or afraid. Everyday Moments Matter: Our relationship with the Lord isn't confined to quiet times or church; He is with us in our travel, parenting, and daily routines. 🙏 Prayer “Father, thank you for wanting to reveal yourself to me. What a gift of grace it is to know that the Creator of the world wants me to feel seen and loved... Give me Kingdom eyes to see You and Kingdom ears to hear You. Help me be evidence of Your work in the world.” 📚 Related Articles on Crosswalk.com How to Hear God's Voice in Everyday Life What It Means to Walk by Faith Daily When You Need to See God Move 🎧 Listen & Subscribe Explore more prayers like this on Your Daily Prayer, part of the LifeAudio podcast network.

Parenting teens can be one of the most rewarding and challenging seasons in life. In this heartfelt prayer and devotional, Maggie Meadows Cooper shares from her own journey of raising teenagers about the importance of creating a home environment that mirrors God’s refuge—a safe place where our kids can turn in moments of fear, stress, or uncertainty. Drawing from Psalm 62:8 and other scriptures that describe God as our ultimate refuge, Maggie outlines practical ways to foster trust and open communication with our teens: modeling faith, setting clear boundaries, extending unconditional love, allowing natural consequences, and guarding our words. She reminds us that just as we run to the Lord for shelter, we want our teens to run to us—but this requires intentionality and grace. And ultimately, even when we can’t be everything for our kids, we can trust the One who knows and loves them perfectly. Today's Bible Verse is Psalm 62:8 – “Trust in Him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts before Him. God is our refuge.” 🕊 Key Takeaways Model God as your refuge so your teens see where you place your trust. Set clear expectations and boundaries to create a sense of security. Express unconditional love and forgiveness regularly. Allow logical consequences while standing by your teen through them. Guard your words to build trust and protect open communication. 🙏 Prayer “Dear Jesus, I want more than anything to have a strong relationship with my teenagers, where they feel safe sharing their hearts with me. Please give me wisdom and discernment on how to communicate with them best. Help them know that they can trust me, that I love them unconditionally, and that You are their ultimate refuge.” 📚 Related Articles on Crosswalk.com 7 Ways to Build Trust with Your Teen How to Pray for Your Teenager Raising Godly Teens in a Modern World 🎧 Listen & Subscribe Find daily encouragement on Your Daily Prayer, part of the LifeAudio podcast network.

True peace in our homes begins with the choice of whom we serve and what we believe. As Christine F. Perry reflects in today's prayer, our beliefs shape our behavior—whether that’s striving to earn love, chasing wealth, or living for earthly rewards. When we choose our own way over God’s, chaos, fear, and anxiety often follow. But when we surrender authority and headship to the Lord, we invite His peace to reign in our hearts and our homes. Drawing from Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis, Christine reminds us that God designed us to “run on Himself” — there is no true happiness or peace apart from Him. Today, we are called to make the intentional choice to serve the Lord, letting His presence shape our relationships, attitudes, and daily life. Today's Bible Verse: 📖 Joshua 24:15 – “But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD.” 🕊 Key Takeaways What you believe determines how you behave. Serving God brings peace—serving self brings chaos. We were made to run on God alone—peace is impossible without Him. Daily surrender is essential for God’s peace to fill our homes. 🙏 Prayer “Lord, please rule and reign in our hearts and homes today. Help us to spend time with You so we can love as You love, serve as You serve, and live as You lived. We know apart from You we can do nothing, but with You, we can do all things.” 📚 Related Articles on Crosswalk.com 7 Ways to Cultivate Peace in Your Home What Does It Mean to ‘Serve the Lord’? cHow to Let Go and Let God Have Control 🎧 Listen & Subscribe Find daily encouragement on Your Daily Prayer, part of the LifeAudio podcast network.

Midnight hours often bring reflection, anxiety, or loneliness—especially when the world grows quiet. In today's prayer, Peyton Garland beautifully captures this sacred stillness, recounting her own moments of solitude as a mother and wife to a traveling pilot. From a Tennessee farm filled with unexpected late-night birdsong, she draws two powerful truths: We are never alone, even in darkness. We were not made to be alone, and healthy, godly relationships are vital. This devotion is a gentle reminder that even in the stillness, God sings over us and gives us a song to sing in return. Today's Prayer Leans on This Bible Verse: 📖 Matthew 13:31-32 – “...It is the smallest of all seeds, but it becomes the largest of garden plants; it grows into a tree, and birds come and make nests in its branches.” 🕊️ Key Takeaways Faith doesn’t need to be big—just real. Even faith the size of a mustard seed is enough for God to work miracles. Birds chirping at midnight can remind us to worship and seek connection even in our darkest moments. Community matters. Like birds who mate for life and depend on one another, we need others to walk with us through life. God’s presence is faithful and constant. Even in the quietest hours, He is singing love over us. 🙏 Prayer “Father, just as you never leave us or forsake us, no matter how dark the night, I pray we remember to engage our faith… Just as the birds do, I pray we find others and point one another to your steady faithfulness.” 📚 Related Articles on Crosswalk.com 3 Prayers for Peace to Pray at Night How to Find Comfort in God’s Presence What to Do When You Feel Spiritually Alone 🎧 Listen & Subscribe Find encouragement every day on Your Daily Prayer, part of the LifeAudio podcast network.

Our words have power—to either build up or break down. In today's prayer, Vivian Bricker reflects on how the wisdom passed down from her mother shaped her own understanding of the importance of speech, and how Scripture calls us to use our tongues as trees of life. Whether we’ve been wounded by words or regret the ones we’ve spoken, there is hope and healing through Christ. By surrendering our speech to Him, we allow God to shape our words into sources of encouragement, compassion, and truth. Today's Prayer Leans on This Bible Verse: 📖 Proverbs 15:4 – “The soothing tongue is a tree of life, but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit.” 📝 Key Takeaways Words can heal or harm. Whether at home, work, or in relationships, what we say leaves a lasting impact. A soothing tongue is a tree of life. Speaking gently and kindly reflects the heart of Jesus. Hurtful speech is a universal struggle. But through God’s strength, we can learn to speak life instead of destruction. Forgiveness and transformation are possible. Christ can redeem past pain and train our hearts to bless others. 🙏 A Prayer to Speak Life “Dear Jesus, I ask that You help my tongue become soothing and a tree of life to others… Please help me develop a tongue that only speaks words of love, wisdom, and hope…” 📚 Related Resources from Crosswalk.com and iBelieve.com: How to Use Your Words to Heal, Not Hurt What Does It Mean That the Tongue Has the Power of Life and Death? 🎧 Listen & Subscribe Tune in daily for powerful prayers and Scripture-based encouragement on Your Daily Prayer at LifeAudio.com or wherever you listen to podcasts. 💡 Reflection Question Who in your life needs encouragement today?

It’s easy to lean on Jesus when life is hard, but what about when things get easier? Here’s why keeping your eyes fixed on Christ in every season matters more than you might think. Keri Eichberger’s daily prayer and devotional remind us that both hardship and ease offer moments to grow closer to Jesus. While trials often deepen our dependence on Him, seasons of calm can tempt us to rely on ourselves. This devotional challenges us to guard our spiritual gaze—keeping it fixed on Christ, the true source of light, joy, and fulfillment. Today's Prayer Leans on This Bible Verse: 📖 John 8:12 – “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” Key Takeaways Faith in hardship is powerful, but so is faithfulness in abundance. When blessings come, don't lose sight of the One who brings them. Intimacy with Jesus should be our constant, regardless of the season. Keep your praise steady and your heart aware—Jesus is our light in all things. 📖 Scripture References John 8:12 – Jesus is the Light of the World Hebrews 12:2 – Fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith Psalm 119:105 – God's word is a lamp and light to our path 2 Corinthians 4:6 – God shines in our hearts with the light of Christ 🎧 Listen & Subscribe Find more episodes of Your Daily Prayer at LifeAudio.com or on your favorite podcast app. Get daily encouragement as you deepen your prayer life and walk with Jesus. 📚 Related Articles on Crosswalk.com 5 Ways to Keep Your Eyes Fixed on Jesus How to Cultivate Unshakable Faith in Difficult Seasons ✅ Action Steps Reflect on moments when your gaze has drifted from Jesus—what pulled your focus?

The psalmist's charge is clear: don’t just talk about God’s wonders—live them.
