Everyday Prayers with Million Praying Moms

A prayer based on Ephesians 3:19. My prayers as a child were of the silent kind, the rote kind, the unbelieving kind. They dangled like the Jewish leaders’ tassels from their robes. They hung in the air, a long string of names of people I feared would go to hell. I was afraid of many things and this is why I got baptized in my father’s church, and why I eventually stopped eating. Because somehow for this pastor’s daughter, all the Bible stories and all the going to church and all the organ-hymns couldn’t fill me the way I knew love was supposed to fill. What does faith look like for you, right now, friend? Is it a quiet thing leaking out of your eyes? Is it a loud, whooping, travailing in the Spirit? Or is it a bowed-over thing, bent low on the floor? Listen to today's podcast episode from Emily T. Wierenga. Would you like to have today's episode in written form? Consider joining our Patreon!

A prayer based on Matthew 25:21 All my boys grumbled as I called them downstairs. How dare I ask them to help sort the enormous pile of clean laundry? It wasn't like they had put the pile in the middle of the floor. Instead of forcing them to get moving or yelling at them, I reminded them that daddy put the laundry on the floor and was planning to fold it later. Wouldn't it be such a fun surprise for him if we put it away before he gets home from his job? I hinted. Have you ever had a time where you were grumbling about something, but discovered once you began to serve that it brought you a surprising amount of joy? Why do you think God created our souls this way? Why do we often fight against it? Listen to today's podcast episode from Christie Thomas. Would you like to have today's episode in written form?

A prayer based on Proverbs 15:21-22 As my boys have gotten older, I've spent a lot of time talking to them about the kind of men they want to be when they grow up. I was blessed to be surrounded by good men as a young girl, men who loved their families hard, served others faithfully, and stood for something greater than themselves, men who sacrificed so their families could have the best, and taught their children to work hard and protect what they believed in. I want to continue the tradition of raising good men, but I also know that good isn't enough. Are you settling for 'good enough' instead of pursuing the wisdom of God? Do you choose wisdom over foolishness, even when it is hard? Listen to today's podcast episode from Brooke McGlothlin. Would you like to have today's episode in written form?

A prayer based on Daniel 3:16-17. King Nebuchadnezzar was in a furious rage when he asked Daniel's friends why they wouldn't worship his image of gold. They had the audacity to refuse to bow down and worship the statue made in the King's image. Did they not know who he was? Were they not aware that he had conquered their land and brought them into captivity? Did they not understand that they would be thrown into a furnace so hot that it would immediately snuff out the lives of those who were charged with throwing them into the fire? What Nebuchadnezzar was about to find out was that Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego knew exactly who their God was and because they knew this, they had no fear of what Nebuchadnezzar could do. Are you willing to do the hard work of trusting in God? When life is going well, do you praise him? When you face difficulty, are you able to trust his goodness and faithfulness?

A prayer based on Proverbs 20:3. The world around us rewards those who speak up, don't back down, go down swinging, and rise again. We can simply step into the ring of social media to contend for our opinions without even leaving our homes. Stand at the edge of a fight, and you'll hear the cheers of energy and exhilaration as onlookers enjoy the clash. When we get wrapped up in quarreling, our home can soak up the strife. If we're not careful, our family will feel our fight. When the first punch is thrown as an offense, sharp word, or demeaning glance, the next words we choose either fuel the strife or stand for peace. We either step into the fight or away from it. We choose to make strife or peace. Is there a controversy you need to drop or an injury you need to forgive? How could you bring more peace to your home?

A prayer based on Psalm 27:5. The day of trouble is inevitable; For moms, it sometimes seems like every day has its own share of trouble. In fact, some days take the cake‑‑with trouble oozing out and running over! According to Psalm 91, if we dwell in God's presence, we will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. Not only is it geographically a safe place, but it is a place of rest and community, a place where we can relax and breathe. We're not alone there, for the shadow of the almighty keeps us company. In the reality of today's troubled world, how safe are we in the shelter of his wings? Listen to today's podcast episode from Dr. Laura Groves. Would you like to have today's episode in written form?

A prayer based on Psalm 86:15. We look at things, people and places for grace. We try to chase grace, we forget to embrace grace, and we think we can earn grace when all we really need to do is open our hands and receive it. Let the true grace that only God can give wash over our bodies and settle deep into our bones. But we often keep record of what he wipes clean. What do you know about God's grace for you and your family? Do you ever try to earn it? Listen to today's podcast episode from Michelle Krol. Would you like to have today's episode in written form?

A prayer based on 1 Timothy 6:11. The path to contentment is clearly blazed, Paul says, but the world places the signs all backwards. Thinking gain IS godliness, we follow our natural desires and feed unhealthy cravings. If we could do things our way… if we only had more money… if we had more obedient children… then we'd be content. It's always just one more and never enough. God's word tells us it’s exactly the other way around. Are we feeding our cravings or following after contentment? Listen to today's podcast episode from Julie Kieras.

A prayer based on Matthew 20:15-16. When Jesus invited people to follow him, his invitation wasn't an opportunity for advancement. In fact, it was quite the opposite. He wasn't offering a chance to become famous or to build a following, Jesus gave his followers a different challenge. His call was one to be last, to serve, to honor others ahead of themselves. How do you embrace the lowering of yourself for the elevation of Christ? Listen to today's podcast episode from Teri Lynne Underwood. Would you like to have today's episode in written form?

A prayer based on Mark 1:17-18. What things in this world do you find comfort and security in? Maybe you look to a spouse or children for your sense of purpose. Or maybe you feel valuable or important because of your education or accomplishments. Perhaps you find feelings of security in your money or possessions. When Jesus says to us, “Come, follow me,” he offers us a different way. Do you need to leave behind some of the earthly ways you find comfort today?
