Scripture “Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. For ye have need of patience…” – Hebrews 10:35-36 Devotional Hebrews tells us not to throw away our confidence. That means confidence can be thrown away. Not always all at once, but little by little. Through disappointment. Through delay. Through fear. Through comparison. Through weariness. Through listening to the wrong voices. Sometimes we start strong in faith, but the waiting wears us down. We begin to question …

Scripture “Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you…” – Joshua 1:3 Devotional Faith does not stop at believing. There are moments when faith has to move forward. Joshua 1:3 reminds us that God had given the land, but the people still had to walk into it. The promise was real, but possession required movement. This is important because some of us have been believing God for something, but we have …

Scripture “Have faith in God.” – Mark 11:22 Devotional As we close this week of bold prayer, let us come back to the simple command of Jesus: have faith in God. The power is not in the mountain. The power is not even in our ability to sound spiritual. The power is in the God we are trusting. Bring the mountain to God. Bring the impossible thing. Bring the fear. Bring the disappointment. Bring the marriage concern. Bring the financial …

Scripture “When ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.” – Mark 11:24 Devotional Faith often asks us to believe before we see. That is not easy because we are used to letting evidence lead us. We want proof first, then confidence. We want results first, then peace. We want the situation to change first, then faith. But Jesus teaches us to pray and believe. Faith reaches for God’s Word before natural evidence arrives. Faith chooses …

Scripture “What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.” – Mark 11:24 Devotional Some of us need permission to ask again. Not because God stopped listening, but because disappointment taught us to stop asking. We asked once, maybe many times, and when the answer did not come how or when we expected, something in us pulled back. We still love God. We still believe in Him. We still pray for …

Scripture “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think…” – Ephesians 3:20 Devotional Ephesians 3:20 reminds us that God is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think. That means our imagination is not the limit of God’s ability. Our request is not the ceiling of His power. Our understanding is not the boundary of His wisdom. Sister, God can do more. He can do more in …

Scripture “What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.” – Mark 11:24 Devotional Some women are afraid to pray boldly because they do not want to sound demanding or prideful. That is wise to consider, because prayer is not about ordering God around. But we also have to be careful not to confuse humility with unbelief. Bold prayer is not pride when it is rooted in dependence on God. Bold …

Scripture “If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed… nothing shall be impossible unto you.” – Matthew 17:20 Devotional Jesus said faith like a mustard seed can move mountains. That encourages me because a mustard seed is small. Jesus did not say we needed perfect faith, loud faith, impressive faith, or faith that never struggles. He pointed to something tiny that carries life inside of it. Sister, do not count yourself out because your faith feels small today. …

Scripture “Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.” – Mark 11:22-24 Devotional This week we are talking about faith that prays boldly. And sister, I want us to be honest: sometimes we stop praying boldly because we have been disappointed before. We prayed and waited. We asked and cried. We believed and did not see what we expected. So without even realizing it, our …

Scripture “That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth…” – 1 Peter 1:7 Devotional Sometimes when we are in a hard season, we start wondering if God is displeased with us or if we have been rejected. The fire can make us feel abandoned. The testing can make us question our worth. The delay can make us wonder if God has moved on. But sister, being refined is not the same as being …
