A Prayer for the Kitchen Table by Emily WierengaThere is a table that holds the world together.In this, we linger at that sacred place—the table where crumbs fall into cracks, where children chew on wooden legs, where laughter and grief share the same surface. The table where we become human… and where Christ chose to meet us.Scripture reveals a God who does not merely invite us to bring our offering—but to sit, eat, and be fed by Him.We reflect on the kitchen tables of our own lives—the places where real talk happens, where joy finally feels safe enough to laugh, where sadness is welcomed because love is present. This is where God meets us in all our mess, soup on our chins and cracks in our souls, and says, Eat. Drink. Remember Me. Reference: Matthew 3:16 Prayer: Lord, You who are the triune God, thank You for serving me. Thank You for loving me. I long to sit with You and stare into You and know You, forever. Talk with me, laugh with me, and eat with me. I love You.

A Prayer for When Things Feel Hard by Shalene Roberts Motherhood is a beautiful calling—but it is also deeply challenging. In this episode we step into an honest moment from the trenches of parenting littles: the exhaustion, the guilt after a hard night, and the weight of feeling like we’ve fallen short. Through Jesus’ words in John 16:33, we are reminded that hardship is not a sign of failure—it’s part of living in a broken world.We cannot love, lead, forgive, or extend grace to our children through sheer willpower. Instead, we are invited to trust the One who has already overcome the world. Reference: John 16:33 Prayer: Dear God, some days can feel overwhelmingly difficult. Whether it’s relationship conflict, financial stress, health concerns, or a plethora of other worries that can consume us, this life can feel really heavy at times. When we’re in the midst of a hardship, help us to remember to take heart because you have overcome the world.

A Prayer for Household Harmony by Danika Cooley A home grounded in God’s Word becomes a place where peace can grow. Even when emotions run high or relationships feel strained, Jesus remains the steady rhythm that holds everything together.In today's episode, we look at Romans 15 and it reminds us that Scripture was written to instruct, encourage, and help us endure. God Himself is the source of harmony, and when our lives align with the teachings of Jesus, our voices—though different—can glorify Him together. Reference: Romans 15:5-6 Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank you for the endurance and encouragement you offer us in your Word. As we walk with you, please help our home to be a house of peace because we know you and we know your Word. I ask that you equip us to live in harmony with each other. Help our family glorify Jesus both at home and in public. Let our testimony as Christ-followers be tangible to all who meet us.

A Prayer for the Joy of Being by Nicolet Bell There is a sacred invitation found in Psalm 46:10—to be still before the Lord.In today's episode by Nicolet Bell, she reflects on those first few weeks of welcoming a new baby boy. As a self-described “doer,” this episode explores how difficult—and necessary—it is to slow down and simply be. Through the ancient practice of breath prayers, we’re reminded that stillness is not passive but deeply formative. Whether in seasons of grief or joy, our need for God’s presence remains the same.This episode invites us to breathe deeply, trust God’s sovereignty, and rest in the truth that He is at work—even when we are not. Reference: Psalm 46:10 Prayer: Be still and know, and that He is God. Be still and know that he is God. Father, whether we find ourselves today in a season of grief, a season of joy, or somewhere in between, may you help us to experience the joy of being- being found in your presence being known by you.

A Prayer for Wanting God's Will by Brooke McGlothlin What happens when God’s answer doesn’t look the way we hoped?In today’s episode by Brooke McGlothlin, we reflect on the story of Naaman in 2 Kings 5 and a personal journey of obedience that required trusting God in an unexpected place. Through Scripture, story, and prayer, we’re reminded that God’s blessings often come on the other side of humility, surrender, and choosing His way over our own. Reference: 2 Kings 5:14 Prayer: Lord, I don't like the season of life you have me in, and I don't understand why I have to be here. I don't know why you won't make it easier, and my pride is tempting me to take offense at what you're asking me to do. Help me to see things your way. Help me trust you in this moment. Help me to believe you're good and that you're using this time to do something in, for, and maybe even through me. In Jesus' name, amen.

A Prayer for Peaceful Sleep by Paige Collins Few things unsettle a mother’s heart like a child waking in the night, frightened and inconsolable.In this episode by Paige Collins, we talk honestly about that ache, the helplessness we feel in the dark hours, and the responsibility we carry as mothers who long to protect our children.Psalm 4:8 reminds us of a powerful truth: our children’s safety does not rest on our vigilance, worry, or late-night searching for answers. It rests in God alone. While we take practical steps to care for our children, we are also invited to stand in spiritual authority—anchoring our parenting in prayer and God’s promises. Reference: Psalm 4:8 Prayer: Heavenly Father, as a mother covered by Your grace, I boldly declare Your promise of Psalm 4:8 over my child tonight, that my child will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone make him dwell in safety. I ask you to guard my child’s mind and spirit against nightmares, night terrors, and every harmful influence, and replace his/her fears and worries, with your perfect peace and supernatural comfort. In Jesus’ name, amen. LINKS: 5 Habits of a Praying Mom Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMoms Get today's devotion and prayer in written form to keep for future use!

A Prayer to Walk in Our Calling While Our Hearts are Mending by Doris Swift Have you ever felt called by God to something bigger—yet held back by hurt, betrayal, or loss? In this episode by Doris Swift, we reflect on the story of Joseph, a man who understood heartbreak deeply and still walked faithfully in God’s calling. Today we pause in the overlooked moments: the heartbreak of betrayal, the loneliness of being sold off, and the quiet perseverance of a man whose heart was still mending. Through it all, Joseph trusted the goodness of God and allowed Him to use every season for His glory. Reference: Genesis 50:19-21 Prayer: Father, thank you for mending our broken places and healing our hearts.

A Prayer for When You Feel Alone by Emily Wierienga What if communion with God doesn’t begin in quiet sanctuaries—but in flour-dusted kitchens and half-finished conversations? In this episode, we’re invited into the sacred ordinary, where God’s deep desire is not productivity or perfection, but presence. From the first words of creation—“Let there be light”—to Jesus’ longing to share a meal with His disciples, Scripture reveals a God who eagerly draws near. Reference: Luke 10:38–42 Prayer: O Lord, that You would want to eat with me—that You would want to commune with me. That this is the one thing that matters to You, the God of the universe. Make it the one thing that matters to me, Lord. I want to want to commune with You. Forever.
