Praying in Secret

But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.—Matthew 6:6 (NIV)
This verse invites you to find a place where no one even knows you are praying, shut the door, and talk to God in secret. There is spiritual power in intimate prayer—in sharing deep thoughts and emotions. Keep your words between you and God and enter into an adventure that is uniquely yours.
Heavenly Father, thank You for being my trusted friend. I long to know You better.

Trust God, No Matter What

The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in Him.—Nahum 1:7 (NIV)
At one time or another, you may go through a crisis of faith, when you find yourself questioning if God is really good, loving and powerful. If you feel abandoned and filled with doubt, draw closer to Him. Know that you can depend on God no matter what your circumstances. He knows you personally and cares for you deeply.
Heavenly Father, I need Your help. Desperate times have shaken me to the core. Guide me out of trouble. Guide me back to You.

Do What Happy People Do

A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.—John 13:34 (NIV)
Are you looking for an easy way to make your life better? Make a point to do one thing, one simple gesture every day, that shows another you love them, really, truly love them. You’ll know you’ve made a difference.
Lord, Jesus, today and every day, I will take time to love someone with intention.

It’s OK to Be Sad

When I heard these things, I sat down and wept. For some days I mourned and fasted and prayed before the God of heaven.—Nehemiah 1:4 (NIV)
Are you feeling down? Talk to God. Be honest about your feelings. You don’t need to pretend that you’re fine when life hurts. Instead, do as Nehemiah did: cry. Be sad. Mourn. Grieve. Ask God to help you believe that tomorrow will be better.
Heavenly Father, I know You rescue those with crushed spirits. Wrap Your arms around me and heal my broken heart.

Focus on the Good

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.—Romans 12:2 (ESV)
Actions are born from thoughts, so if you can focus on good things and block thoughts that lead to destructive behavior, you can break the chain of bad habits and actions. If you can’t totally prevent a negative thought from entering your mind, you can refuse to dwell on it and stop it in its tracks before your actions follow.
Dear Lord, guide me to following Your will and focus on what is good, acceptable and perfect.

Change Is Good

For the Spirit God gave us does
not make us timid, but gives us
power, love and self-discipline.—2 Timothy 1:7 (NIV)

Progress is impossible without change. Yet many fear taking a leap towards something better. Instead, we stay in jobs we don’t like or relationships that have problems. If there is something in your life that needs to change, pray. Use this verse as an affirmation to help you have the bravery to move forward. You are not alone. Blessings lie ahead.

Dear God, help me to face the changes I should make in my life; grant me the courage to leap.

From Stressed to Blessed

I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.—John 14:18 (KJV)

Use Healing Words

Let your conversation be gracious and attractive so that you will have the right response for everyone.—Colossians 4:6 (NLT)
Your words have tremendous power. Despite the old saying about sticks and stones, words can cause lasting pain. Every day is an opportunity to use kind words generously in teaching about God’s love. As Jesus said, “What you say flows from what is in your heart.” (Luke 6:45)
Heavenly Father, help me make the world a better place, one word at a time.

A Quick Pick-Me-Up

“Hallelujah! Praise God from heaven, praise Him from the mountaintops; Praise Him, all you His angels, praise Him, all you His warriors, Praise Him, sun and moon, praise Him, you morning stars; Praise Him, high heaven, praise Him, heavenly rain clouds; Praise, oh let them praise the name of God— he spoke the word, and there they were!”—Psalm 148:1 (MSG)
Does your spirit need a boost? Don’t reach for a coffee or an energy drink. Instead spend a few minutes praising Jesus. Invite His joy to fill you. Praise Jesus for Who He is, what He’s done, and what He has promised to do.
Heavenly Father, thank You for being my victorious Savior, best Friend and holy Lord.

When you read John Chapter 17, you discover that Jesus prayed for protection, joy and unity for His followers. If you are feeling overwhelmed, say the above verse and take comfort in Jesus’ prayer. Know that He is on your side.
Dear Jesus, your prayers are a great blessing to me.
