The Veiled

The Bible tells us that the veil has been torn. The veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom (Matthew 27:51, Mark 15:38, Luke 23:45). Hebrews 10:19-20 says: “And now we are brothers and sisters in God’s family because of the blood of Jesus, and he welcomes us to come into … Continue reading The Veiled →

Your Faith Expects

In Mark 11:24, we read: “Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours” (ESV). This certainly is not a green light to expect you will receive every single thing you request in your prayers. When God answers our prayers, we receive a “yes” … Continue reading Your Faith Expects →

Before I Even Whisper

Our concept of prayer can get a little skewed as we age. When we are younger, if we know Jesus, we are more apt to simply pour out our heart. Whatever we have on our hearts we share. As we get older, we are “taught” how to pray. We see people praying in a certain … Continue reading Before I Even Whisper →

Listen and Wait

In Psalm 85, the Psalmist asks God for restoration and revival and for a fresh outpouring of God’s love. The Psalmist says, “Now I’ll listen carefully to Your voice and wait to hear whatever You say.” As I consider this verse, I cannot help but be struck by two things. The “now” and the “listen” … Continue reading Listen and Wait →

Never Lack

In yesterday’s devotion, we spoke about the gifts of grace and glory that God is so generous to bless us with in life. Today, we look deeper at what it means to never lack. When we are small, we often are taught to pray to God for things, and also to thank God for things. … Continue reading Never Lack →

Every Waking Hour

Did you ever hear the phrase, “There’s not enough time in the day” or even find yourself making the declaration? Even though we are gifted 24 hours a day, we never seem to find enough time. With the invention of new technology to help accomplish things with ease, it would seem as if we would … Continue reading Every Waking Hour →

Knowing God Would Come Through

When I was a little girl, I prayed often; perhaps some days I prayed more than I do now as an adult. I was desperate for God to move in certain areas of my life. Despite not seeing what He was doing at the time, I waited and waited and waited some more. I was … Continue reading Knowing God Would Come Through →

As Soon

As soon as I pray, God answers. As soon as you pray, God answers. The Psalmist wrote about a response of encouragement and strength, but this isn’t the only answer from God. We can rest assured that as soon as we pray, God answers in whatever way He desires. When you pray, remember that you … Continue reading As Soon →

You Don’t Ask

Too often we look at what we don’t have and we feel bad for ourselves. We wonder why we don’t have it. We may grumble and complain. Sometimes we ask why these things keep happening to us and why things never go right. We see what others have and we don’t understand why the same … Continue reading You Don’t Ask →

Like Water

Jeremiah gives us a great picture of what prayer should be like for us. In Lamentations 2, he tells us to pour out our hearts to the Lord—and this would be seen as pouring out like water. What a great image! When you empty a container of water, like when you dump a bucket of … Continue reading Like Water →
