I don’t mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection (teleios).

Ep 112The Key to Perseverance in Tough Times - A Nighttime Prayer
“For we have no power against this great multitude that is coming against us; nor do we know what to do, but our eyes are upon You.” – 2 Chronicles 20:12Jesus Christ, our great Savior and Warrior King, I praise You for being steadfast in Your love and faithful to never forsake me. Show me Your vision for me, and help me to keep my eyes always on You. Guide me in my days ahead, so that I may persevere despite attacks from the evil one. Teach me daily to trust in You, not in my own power or plans. Help me to overcome the discouragement, despair, distractions, and defeats that lie in my path. Remind me to keep my focus on You and Your promises because only You can give me the strength to keep going.Let me have peace and rest this evening, knowing You will be with me every step of the way.

Ep 36Who's in Charge? The Power of God- A Nighttime Prayer
“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen” –Ephesians 3:20-21, NIVHeavenly Father, you know how much our human nature likes to grasp for control. Help us lay those desires down as we entrust you fully. Your power and strength guide us, and through your comfort, we can rest in peace. We love and thank you, Lord. In Jesus Name, Amen. Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers
Ep 35Who's in Charge? The Power of God
By Amber Ginter“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen” – Ephesians 3:20-21In this episode, I reflect on my journey from a person who thrived on control and leadership to one who had to learn the art of surrender. My early years were marked by a desire to lead and take charge, from school projects to forming college organizations. However, after college, my perceived control began to falter as I faced numerous mental and physical health challenges, highlighting my limited power.The concept of control can be daunting, especially when life feels chaotic. Yet, one of the greatest aspects of serving Jesus is that nothing under His sovereignty is ever truly out of control. Learning to surrender our need for control to Jesus can bring peace, much like learning to float in water. The more we struggle, the less we rest, but when we lean back and trust, we find true rest and direction.Jesus understands our human nature and our struggles with control. He invites us to release our tight grip and trust in His strength, power, and stability. By surrendering our burdens and weaknesses to Him daily, we can experience His power at work within us, bringing peace and reassurance that He is in control.Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers

Ep 45Trusting God With Our Best Laid Plans - A Nighttime Prayer
“Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the LORD that will stand.” —Proverbs 19:21 Heavenly Father, I’m so grateful that Your plans are sure and Your purposes in my life will be fulfilled no matter how far off course my current circumstances have cast me. Help me lay my plans at Your feet and trust You to put me back on the course that will accomplish Your purposes in my life and in the lives of those I serve. In Jesus’ powerful name, amen.

Ep 65An Education in Wisdom - A Nighttime Prayer
"Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom. But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth" – James 3:13-14, ESVLord, reveal where I am jealous and seek my own way. Help me to approach challenges, deserved or undeserved, with humility, thinking of others above myself. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers
Ep 64An Education in Wisdom
By Karisa MooreWho is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom. But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth – James 3:13-14I am surprised at the James passage. I didn't expect that the root of a lack of wisdom is bitter jealousy and selfish ambition. The James passage goes on to say, "But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere (vs. 17). Wisdom isn't applying "smarts." Instead, it is the result of applying the fruits of the spirit - love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control…against such things there is no law" Galatians 5:22-23Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers
Ep 62Thinking Like God

After all, wisdom really is thinking like God thinks. Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers
Ep 13Finding Freedom in Knowing Jesus
by Keri WillisJesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. John 14:6 In this episode, we delve into the powerful concept of freedom through the lens of American history and Christian faith. Our journey begins with a poignant memory from an "American Heritage Day" event at school, where a stirring speech by a sixth grader on Patrick Henry’s famous declaration, “Give me liberty or give me death,” left an indelible mark.We explore Patrick Henry's profound words and their historical context, highlighting how his call to action ignited the flames of the Revolutionary War. But we don't stop there. We draw a parallel to another, even more crucial battle: the spiritual war for our hearts and minds.As we navigate this episode, we confront the chains of sin, guilt, and discouragement that the enemy uses to enslave us. We then turn to the ultimate liberator, Jesus Christ, whose sacrifice on the cross and victory over death offers us eternal freedom. Through the truth of His word and the power of His resurrection, we discover the path to true liberation from the power of sin.Join us as we reflect on the profound truths found in John 14 and John 8, and celebrate the incredible kindness and grace described in Ephesians 1:7-8. This episode is a call to embrace the freedom Christ offers and to live a life transformed by His truth.Read more

Ep 12Freedom in Christ - A Nighttime Prayer
“Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty [emancipation from bondage, true freedom].” -- 2 Corinthians 2:17 AMPDear Lord, I am grateful for Your love and trust You completely. Help me identify areas of brokenness so I can experience unquestionable freedom. Intercept unhealthy thoughts and actions so my relationship with You is strengthened and grows. I want to walk freely in Your Spirit freely loving You, myself, and others. May my life be an offering to You, so I can joyfully and passionately fulfill my purpose. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen.Read more
Ep 11Freedom in Christ: Untie Negative Cords and Break Free
In this episode, we explore the powerful concept of true freedom in Christ as shared by Mary Armand. Reflecting on her high school experiences, Mary recalls the frustration of the three-legged race, where partners are tied together and must run towards the finish line. This race serves as a metaphor for how our natural abilities can be restrained by negative bonds and patterns in our lives. However, the highlight of the race was always the moment of untying the cord and breaking free, a sensation Mary likens to the spiritual freedom found in Christ.Mary delves into the transformative power of accepting Christ’s forgiveness, which brings a new identity and introduces true freedom, as stated in John 8:36, "So if the Son makes you free, then you are unquestionably free." Despite the challenges and trials that often cause negative thoughts and patterns to resurface, Mary emphasizes that in Christ, there is an alternative for reclaiming freedom. By drawing close to God and regularly connecting with Him, we are empowered to cut off the things that suffocate our spirit and hinder our potential.Listeners are encouraged to identify and untie unhealthy bonds, asking God to reveal what is troubling their spirit and stealing their freedom. With references to 2 Corinthians 3:17 and Galatians 5:13, Mary shares how an intimate relationship with God restores true freedom, enabling us to walk in His love and reach our full potential. Join us as we explore how to break free from spiritual weariness and embrace the peace and joy that come from living in Christ’s liberty.Read more

Ep 106Failure for Teens is Survivable - A Nighttime Prayer
Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. – Romans 12:12Lord, I maintain my hope in You, and I hold onto the assurance that what I am praying for is already accomplished in the name of Jesus. In this new school year ahead, I ask that as a parent you give me strength, patience, and above all please grant me wisdom as I guide my children through the rigors of another academic year. As David prayed in Psalm 18:1: “I love you, Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.” Lord, please bless this school year.

“for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.” -- 2 Timothy 1:7Lord, you know my heart and how I long to spend more time with You. You also know my faults, and the life challenges I face. Please highlight things I need to improve or remove from my life so I may be better disciplined.

Ep 100Go the Distance - A Nighttime Prayer
Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it. And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown. -- 1 Corinthians 9:24-25 (NKJV).Heavenly Father, I just ask that You would help me to be be more disciplined in my faith. I pray that you will help me to make the right choices, not ones that are convenient and comfortable, but ones that are ordained by you. I ask that you would guide me to constantly seek peace, joy, and contentment in my decisions and steer me away from greed, envy, gossip, and anything else that might lead me astray. I am forever grateful for your loving compassion for me even when I don't deserve it. I am quite thankful for your loving guidance. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers
Ep 99Go the Distance
By Lilka Finley RaphaelDo you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it. And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown. -- 1 Corinthians 9:24-25 (NKJV).The race set before us requires discipline as well. We may not strive for gold, but we serve a purpose in our Father’s plan. Athletes continually push themselves to reach new heights and milestones. Unfortunately, many of us merely do what we have always done regarding spiritual matters. We may go to church or spend time with God yet never experience greater intimacy with the Lord or an eagerness to serve Him.Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers

Ep 98Why Should I Meditate on Scripture? - A Nighttime Prayer
“My eyes are awake through the night watches, that I may meditate on Your word.” — Psalm 119:148Almighty Father, I’m so grateful that Your word isn’t simply an ancient book filled with recorded history, letters, poems, and songs, but it lives and breathes through Your divinely inspired words, which are active and powerful (Heb. 4:12), providing a lamp to my feet and a light to my path (Psalm 119:105) and transforming me day by day (2 Cor. 4:16). I thank you that even on a sleepless night, I can meditate on Your word and be comforted by Your perfect peace, Your faithful presence, and Your transforming truth. I desire to spend more time contemplating all that Your word teaches me about who You are, who You say I am, and how I can now live because I am a new creation in Christ. Help me set aside focused time to meditate on Your word and allow the Holy Spirit to give me a deeper understanding and wisdom to apply to my daily life. In Jesus’ name, amen.Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers

Ep 96Growing in Spiritual Discipline - A Nighttime Prayer
"Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you," -- Matthew 6:33 (NKJV)Heavenly Father, we come to you as Your children. We love You and praise Your Holy Name. Guide us into this new lifestyle of spiritual discipline according to Your divine will. Help us to keep our eyes on You and to follow Your voice and shake off things that would weigh us down on our faith journey. Help us to walk the path You have set before us, and not look to the right or to the left. Help us to be Your light in this dark world, while pointing others to You. All these things we ask in the name of Jesus. Amen.Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers
Ep 95Growing in Spiritual Discipline
By Laura Maser"Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you," -- Matthew 6:33 (NKJV)When we look at the context of this Scripture, the Apostle Matthew referenced basically all our earthly needs, what you wear, what you will eat, what you drink, all you need for your life on earth. But what does that have to do with Spiritual Discipline?Maybe you are new to the faith, and you did not grow up in a family of believers. Or maybe you have not enjoyed clear direction for your spiritual journey. Or maybe you are seeking the Lord in a new season, and you long to hear from Him in a new way. And it is possible that you have been on your faith journey for a long time, leading others, and you hit a dry spell. That's ok! In fact, our Lord, Abba Father, reminds us that He has created a desire in our hearts to know Him and grow in the knowledge of Him, to feel His presence, and to hear His voice.

Ep 94Spiritual Discipline: Intentional Living - A Nighttime Prayer
“… train yourself in godliness, for the training of the body has a limited benefit, but godliness is beneficial in every way, since it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.” -- 1 Timothy 4:7-8 (HCSB)Lord, thank you for your desire to spend time with me. Help me to be intentional by finding a place and time to practice the spiritual disciplines you’ve commanded. I want to live according to the Spirit and not by my flesh. In You, I find my strength. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers
Ep 93Spiritual Discipline: Intentional Living
By Stacey Barkley“… train yourself in godliness, for the training of the body has a limited benefit, but godliness is beneficial in every way, since it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.” -- 1 Timothy 4:7-8 (HCSB)When my children were little, I was disciplined in keeping a tight schedule. If I didn’t, they’d become cranky. We ate at specific times and had an iron clad bedtime. Their schedule was important so they would grow strong and healthy. It was necessary for my well-being, as well. I needed to make sure I had downtime along with time for my husband and me to reconnect after a long day.Don’t we all schedule what is important and beneficial to us? Even though my children are grown, I am still disciplined in keeping appointments and events scheduled. I also eat and go to bed around the same time each day. It would not go well if I continuously skipped a bedtime or multiple meals. So, why is it difficult to discipline myself to schedule time with God? I always have good intentions, however, before I know it, the night is gone and I’ve not spent any time with Him.Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers

And in those moments, that I am being undisciplined I ask that you would give me a gentle nudge to steer me into the joy you have for me.

By Sarah FreymuthDo not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it. - Hebrews 13:2 Have you ever looked a stranger in the eyes and had a sense that you’ve seen a bit of the supernatural in them? Maybe it was in passing conversation on the subway, or in a grateful return of dollar bills that fell out of their wallet in front of you, or when you held a door open and caught a grateful smile. This passing moment of connection showed something sacred, if we pause to acknowledge it as such.Do we count our days as sacred, and each conversation as intentional?Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers

Ep 89It’s Been Three Days: Have You Remembered? - A Nighttime Praye
“Every year Jesus’ parents went to Jerusalem for the Passover festival. When Jesus was twelve years old, they attended the festival as usual. After the celebration was over, they started home to Nazareth, but Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. His parents didn’t miss him at first, because they assumed he was among the other travelers. But when he didn’t show up that evening, they started looking for him among their relatives and friends. When they couldn’t find him, they went back to Jerusalem to search for him there. Three days later they finally discovered him in the Temple, sitting among the religious teachers, listening to them and asking questions” –Luke 2: 41-46 (NLT)Lord, we’re grateful you’re never far from us. Even when we run away, hide, or forget you, you never leave or abandon us. You live within. And we’re grateful for the gift of your Spirit. Help us remember the power of your presence in our lives and call on you daily. Not just when we’re in need, but in daily practice of remembering who you are and what you’ve done for us.

Ep 84The Peace of Being Spiritually Aware of God's Presence
By Nicole O'Meara"So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." - 2 Corinthians 4:18 Living spiritually aware leads us to peace and comfort, even (or especially) when our circumstances are not what we would like. Elisha didn’t panic because he was spiritually aware. He knew the Lord’s army was with them. They were not alone.There will be times when our hearts race and panic threatens to creep in. Those are the moments when we need to tune our hearts to our God-radar and listen for the ping. We must learn to turn our focus away from our circumstances and toward our sovereign God who was, and is, and will always be in control.Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers

By Shirley Brosius“They (the seraphim) were calling to one another: ‘Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.” – Isaiah 6:3 (NIV)When I was a child we wore “Sunday” dresses and often hats and gloves to show respect to God when we attended church. The sanctuary was a holy place that inspired wonder and worship. We sometimes knelt at our pews–sacred moments.Growing up on a farm, I sensed God’s Presence every day. The wind. The rain. The storms. The garden. The intricacies of nature all pointed to a Creator. And while I didn’t think to worship, I felt wonder and awe at the power of God.Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers

Ep 69Seeking God's Wisdom: Unearthing the Hidden Treasure - A Nighttime Prayer
“Yes, if you cry out for discernment, And lift up your voice for understanding, If you seek her as silver, And search for her as for hidden treasures; Then you will understand the fear of the Lord, And find the knowledge of God. For the Lord gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding; He stores up sound wisdom for the upright; He is a shield to those who walk uprightly; He guards the paths of justice, And preserves the way of His saints.” -Proverbs 2:3Dear Wise and Gracious Heavenly Father, You alone are the author of wisdom. Please fill my mind with wisdom that only can come from you. Please help me to not waiver in my faith that you are generously giving me wisdom and guide me to act accordingly in the challenges, big and small, that come my way. In Jesus Name, Amen.Read MoreVisit Daybreak Devotions and Nighttime Prayers
