Sometimes I think we have unnecessary “prayer pressure.” Did I remember to pray for everyone I said I’d pray for? Who did I forget? Give yourself a break. God hasn’t forgotten any of them. “Lord, You know” may be the most faithful prayer we pray. #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing #weeklyprayer
A prayer committing all of me to all of Jesus—not necessarily these exact words, but this spirit is what we need as followers of Jesus in these days. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
In reading this prayer, I thought of the old Southern Gospel song “Looking for a City.” It’s interesting that, at the renewal of all things, the place where we will dwell with God (and one another) is portrayed as a city rather than wide open spaces. #withgoddaily #weeklyprayer #discoverYourAmazing
The “power of prayer” is seen most powerfully in the changes that happen, not in surrounding circumstances, but in the one who prays. #itstartswithme #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
I pray a prayer very similar to this each morning as I begin my “coffee and Jesus” time. What might our days be like if we were intentional about our spiritual preparation? #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
I’ve recommended “With God Daily” before. This quote in today’s devotion so strongly spoke to me that I had to share it. #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
This prayer seems very exclusive until we acknowledge that we’ll never be able to share the love of Jesus with the world as long as we’re squabbling amongst ourselves. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
There are so many powerful images in this prayer! Who’s in? Those in need of help and community. Who’s out? Those who sow discord. Why come? Because the eternal kingdom can be found through the community of faith. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
If we are seeing the world through lenses of offense, enmity, and fear, we are not seeing through God’s eyes. We’re. Just. Not. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
If our prayer focuses on the changes we want to see in others instead of the necessary changes in ourselves, we will be continuously frustrated and offended. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
For whom are we praying? And what will we do because of our prayers? #withgoddaily #weeklyprayer #discoverYourAmazing
I so deeply feel this prayer. Lord, be patient with my stupidity and help me to be less stupid and do less stupid stuff. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
Even the desire to seek God is a gift of grace from God. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
I love this so much! May our lives spread the fragrance of Jesus and wear the beauty of Jesus in every moment and every location. #withgoddaily #weeklyprayer #discoverYourAmazing
Love. God’s love. God’s love TO me, IN me, THROUGH me FROM me FOR His glory and pleasure and FOR His world. This is the way. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
There is an incredible shift that takes place within us when we stop identifying ourselves by what we stand AGAINST, choosing instead to identify ourselves by what we stand FOR. Sadly, we often choose outrage over peace. #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
Our greatest challenge in living the Christ-life is not the sinners around us, but the powerful potential of sin in us. I think we would be surprised at how our external battles would fade if we win the inner battles by God’s grace. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
When we pray for THE CHURCH, may our imaginations and aspirations extend beyond our local congregations to see and pray for our global siblings. And may we see ourselves as part of a family that is so much broader than we could possibly imagine. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
If our prayers are mostly focused on seeking to increase our own blessings & well-being rather than on the flourishing of the marginalized & vulnerable, we will likely find ourselves less satisfied with what we have and more fearful of what the vulnerable are costing us. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily
Sometimes one sentence within several paragraphs is just too good not to repeat. This is one of those. @skyejethani.bsky.social #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
Grace is not just for when we have failed to follow. We need grace to follow because, left to our own devices, we won’t. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
If you read the last few lines of this prayer and think of “Godspell” you probably need to schedule some medical procedures. Regardless, it’s a good prayer for all of us. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
You can—and should—connect with God personally on a daily basis. You can feel His presence anywhere. And, contrary to what we’ve often been taught, that’s not the purpose of the public gathering. #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
Help us look beyond this moment in time (not overlook, but look beyond) and realize that our hope lies in what is eternal. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
This week’s prayer was too long for a single slide, but too good to skip. God’s fierce justice allows us to feel both the weight of our sin and the tenderness of His forgiveness. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
“I want to see you as you were, as you are, and as you always will be.” YES! #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
Perhaps we should begin our prayers with what we’re bringing TO Jesus, rather than with what we’re requesting FROM Jesus. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
Perhaps a good prayer to begin the week: that we—as His branches—would abide in the Vine. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
When the “things of earth … grow strangely dim” because of our keen awareness of His amazing love. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
Any time we start drawing lines between “us” and “them”—ANY TIME—it’s time for us to take a long, hard look at our own hearts. #weeklyprayer #withgoddaily #discoverYourAmazing
