The future is full of unknowns. Whether you're facing a big decision, a new season, or just the uncertainty of what tomorrow may hold, this prayer is for you. Instead of walking forward in fear, you can walk forward in faith—because God goes before you. 📖 “The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” — Deuteronomy 31:8 📖 “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.” — Proverbs 16:3 Today’s prayer centers on surrender—laying down anxiety and inviting God to prepare your heart, mind, and spirit for whatever lies ahead. He equips those He calls. You don’t need to know the whole path to take the next faithful step.

Fear has a way of sneaking in—through bad news, difficult circumstances, or the quiet hours of the night. But God’s Word reminds us we don’t have to face fear alone. When anxiety whispers lies, the truth of Scripture speaks louder. 📖 “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” — Isaiah 41:10 📖 “When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.” — Psalm 56:3 In today’s prayer, we bring our fears to the Lord—honestly, boldly, and with open hands. Whether it’s fear of the future, failure, or the unknown, God is present. He offers not only comfort but power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). Let His peace cover you today.

Sometimes, life doesn't go as planned. The to-do list remains unchecked, goals drift unfulfilled, and seasons close with lingering “what-ifs.” In those moments, we can feel disappointed, discouraged, or even like we failed. But God doesn’t define us by what we did or didn’t finish. He calls us to faithfulness, not perfection. 📖 “Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” — Philippians 1:6 📖 “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” — Ecclesiastes 3:1 Tonight’s prayer reminds us to release what’s incomplete and trust the One who holds the full picture. If you did your best with what you were given, that’s enough. God is still at work—even in the pauses and the pieces left undone.

Do not be anxious! This seems so ridiculous! How can I not be anxious, concerned, and overwhelmed at times with disillusionment? I know, trust in God, trust in His provision, and He will make everything work out. The question becomes, are you living your life in this way??? #toughquestionsforgod #jesusislove #jesusquotes #jesusquote #jesusquertesalvar

Transitions can feel unsettling—whether it’s a job change, a move, a relationship shift, or a new phase of life. In these moments, we’re tempted to cling to what’s familiar, yet God invites us to trust Him with what’s next. 📖 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” — Proverbs 3:5–6 📖 “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” — Ecclesiastes 3:1 In today’s prayer, we acknowledge the discomfort of transition but place our hope in God’s unwavering presence. He is not only the God of the mountaintop, but also of the in-between. Even when we can’t see what’s ahead, He is already there—preparing, guiding, and holding us through the unknown.

A young man’s reaction to unexpected kindness from a stranger will melt your heart. He had no idea what was about to happen, but the look on his face clearly shows that he absolutely loved it. Watch the short but unbelievably sweet clip to see what the stranger did and how the young man responded.

Several things in this world will forever and always be in short supply. For starters, time is our most precious and invaluable commodity. It is constantly fleeting and disappearing. Once gone, not one second or minute can ever be recovered. We can never have too much time, and whenever you lose a loved one, you quickly and sadly realize this to be all too true.

On a much happier and upbeat note, kindness is another thing that we can never have enough of. While there are many kind and caring people in the world, there is and always will be room for more. A clip posted on YouTube captures one of these unexpected acts of kindness and how it made a young man’s day, possibly his week and entire month.

In the video, it’s explained that a young man, Bleu, has cerebral palsy and is in a wheelchair. The child was celebrating his birthday at an ice rink, and he told someone how much he would love to go out on the ice and skate around. Well, a stranger overheard the young man expressing his desire to go out on the ice, and that’s when something unexpected but unbelievably heartwarming and touching happened.

Instead of listening and forgetting about the child’s comments, a stranger asked to take Bleu out on the ice. The clip captures the moment when the young man is taken out onto the ice and the pure joy and happiness on the youngster’s face.

His reaction is enough to cause even the most stoic, unemotional person to shed a tear or two.

Ephesians 4:32 “And be kind to one another, full of pity, having forgiveness for one another, even as God in Christ had forgiveness for you.”

God can and does turn life’s messes into something beautiful. He often demonstrates the ability to make masterpieces out of ashes and rubble. Watch the short but powerful clip to hear about how the Lord can take the seemingly broken, destroyed and ruined and turn them into something beautiful and breathtaking.

People are fallen, lost and broken. We are all sinners who have willfully turned away from God. We disobeyed, choosing our way over His commands and directives. Of course, you know what happens after we ignore God: we make a complete mess of things, which occurs every time.

Human beings have a knack for screwing things up and taking the good and utterly ruining it. If there’s a way to make a bad situation worse, just give a human a little bit of time with it, and they’ll find a way. Luckily, God is in the business of providing forgiveness and offering grace because we’d all be totally and entirely lost without it. The Lord can also take those situations that we’ve wrecked and ruined, and use them for something good, making what was once broken and destroyed into something new and beautiful.

In a clip posted on YouTube, one man explains how the Lord does this, mentioning a specific and important verse in Scripture. He points to Romans 8:28, in which Paul writes how God uses all situations to bring about good for those who love Him. He adds that God can use messes that we’ve created or ones that we had no role in creating. It does not matter to Him because He can do it all.

“So, it’s almost like God is just so crazy redemptive that He can use even the worst parts of our stories,” he said. “He doesn’t just want to use the beautiful, polished, shiny parts of our stories that we can brag about. God wants the ugly, shameful parts of our story, and He’s committed, not just to working in the good things, but working in the bad things, too.”

Romans 8:28 “And we know that to them that love God all things work together for good, even to them that are called according to his purpose.”

A man in his 90s proves that it’s never too late to chase a dream. Even at his advanced age, he pursued and achieved something that he had always wanted to do. Watch the short but powerful clip to hear what this man did despite being in his 90s.

Time is nothing that can be paused, stopped or reversed. As much as people may want to, it’s simply not possible. Since time keeps marching forward, aging is a natural and continual process that no one can stop or slow (despite beauty products promising to reverse aging). We are getting a little older with every second, minute, hour and day.

Since aging isn’t something we can control, shouldn’t we try to enjoy it? No amount of worrying will add any further time to our lives. I mean, what other option do we have? We should appreciate and take advantage of the time the Lord has given us on Earth and not be worried about our age or how it may impact us.

A clip posted on YouTube tells the story of 97-year-old John Toomey. John, who owns a barbecue restaurant, still comes to work every single day without fail. The video shows the elderly business owner making his rounds in the restaurant, checking on everything and greeting his employees.

The video mentions that John had always wanted to own a barbecue restaurant. It was a dream of his, but it wasn’t until he was 93 years old that he finally became the proud owner of the joint that serves some truly delicious food, as pointed out by the restaurant’s loyal customers.

He didn’t let his age prevent him from doing something that he had always wanted to do. Now, he says that owning the restaurant and coming in every day has been good for him.

“Yes, it gives me an interest and something to do,” John said.

What is something that you’ve always wanted to do, but have things like your age hold you back?

Psalm 71:9 “Do not give me up when I am old; be my help even when my strength is gone.”

With all your heart? Have I ever been able to do this before? Actually, it doesn’t make sense or is it even comfortable! Trust in God with all of my heart … hmmm … #toughquestionsforgod #jesuslife #jesus18 #christquotedaily

Summer often feels like a season of high expectations—vacations, adventures, projects, and family memories. But as the season winds down, many of us feel we haven’t “done enough.” Social media only adds fuel, tempting us to compare our experiences with others and leaving us with regret or inadequacy. This is what we might call summer guilt—the belief that we missed out or didn’t live the season well. But in this evening's prayer and devotional, Jesus reminds us in the parable of the talents that God doesn’t measure us by what others have accomplished. He asks us to be faithful with what He has given us. Whether your summer looked like rest, busyness, or something in between, you can let go of comparison. God isn’t grading your life against someone else’s highlight reel. He delights in your faithfulness. If you’ve done your best with what you had, then you can rest knowing He is pleased. Tonight’s Scripture: Matthew 25:23 “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’”

Some days feel heavier than others—emotionally, spiritually, even physically. The responsibilities pile up, the strength runs dry, and grace feels just out of reach. But God’s Word promises: His grace is not just enough—it’s new every morning. 📖 “But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’” — 2 Corinthians 12:9 📖 “Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning…” — Lamentations 3:22–23 This prayer is for the overwhelmed, the stretched-thin, the ones barely holding it together. God sees you. And He’s not waiting for you to get stronger—He’s offering strength for this moment. You don’t have to feel enough to be enough. His grace meets you right where you are.

I think that faith in God is like that photo— we know something real is all around us, even if we can’t perceive the Divine clearly. What we are able to see, if we are intentional, is the evidence of the Father at work. We hear it in the words of a survivor of a mass tragedy whose immediate prayer is not for vengeance but a blessing for the shooter; in the selfless acts of folks volunteering time and resources to care for the least among us— and in countless other ways. This is God’s handiwork—the sacredness of our planet as well as the holy acts inspired by our better angels.

Sinful thoughts often begin quietly—an unchecked idea, a hidden fault, or a willful choice. Left unattended, they can grow into habits that enslave us. In Psalm 19:12-14, David prays for God’s forgiveness, protection, and guidance so that his heart and words might be pleasing in God’s sight. In today's prayer and devotional, Jessica Van Roekel reminds us that victory over sin isn’t about willpower alone. It comes from surrendering our hearts and minds to the Lord, allowing Him to be our Rock, Refuge, and Redeemer. God provides a way out of temptation, giving us strength to overcome sinful patterns and live in freedom.

Even the most faithful believers experience dry seasons—times when God feels distant, prayer feels empty, and our spiritual strength runs low. If you’re feeling disconnected, discouraged, or just numb, you’re not alone… and you’re not forgotten. 📖 “I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint.” — Jeremiah 31:25 📖 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.” — Matthew 5:6 Tonight’s prayer reminds us that God doesn’t abandon us in the dry places. He meets us there. He draws near with living water for thirsty hearts. This isn’t the end of your faith journey—it’s a pause where God is still present, still working, still loving you.
