  1. A Prayer for Deeper Trust in God’s Goodness

    · 7:06

    Just days before a son’s wedding, tears finally broke through and with them an honest cry to God: I do not want to let go. The son had found his person, and that was genuinely good. But the home that had been built and…

  2. A Prayer to Find Hope in the Midst of Darkness

    · 6:15

    Leaving a lamp on in another room at night — just that small glow — makes a difference. Without it, familiar sounds become suspicious, familiar shapes lose their edges, and the room that is perfectly known in daylight…

  3. A Prayer against Dangerous Paranormal Practices

    · 7:17

    From ghost hunting reality shows to social media posts about psychic powers and manifestation, paranormal practices have never been more mainstream or more casually presented as harmless entertainment. And the…

  4. A Prayer for God to Start a Revival in You

    · 5:43

    Self-pity might feel satisfying in the moment, but it never delivers what it promises — and nothing halts a walk with God quite like staying in it too long. Proverbs 11:25 points in the opposite direction: the generous…

  5. A Prayer to Rediscover Purpose in Life

    · 6:43

    Mary Oliver’s question cuts through the noise of ordinary days with surprising force: “Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” It is the kind of question that either energizes or…

  6. A Prayer When You Fall Short All The Time

    · 6:38

    Over coffee with a friend, venting about the same old struggle — the tongue that runs ahead of wisdom, the familiar conviction of the Holy Spirit arriving within minutes of the conversation, the apology that now has to…

  7. A Prayer for a Grateful Heart

    · 5:10

    The beginning of 2022 felt like everything was finally falling into place — a writing job that had only been a dream, a church community, a relationship after years of waiting. And then, by fall of that same year, all…

  8. A Prayer to Seek Out the Lord

    · 6:02

    When life becomes most difficult, the instinct for many of us is to turn away from God rather than toward Him. We tell ourselves we can handle it, or we feel too far from Him to reach out, or the distance that has…

  9. A Prayer to Depend on God

    · 7:03

    Sin has been described as man’s declaration of independence against God — and that definition cuts straight to the heart of what went wrong with King Uzziah. Second Chronicles 26:15 records that he was greatly helped…

  10. A Prayer to Be Present in the Season You're In

    · 6:21

    An annual autumn road trip through the mountains, timed perfectly the first year — vibrant reds, oranges, and yellows painting every hillside, photos capturing what felt like a peak moment. And then the exact same week…

  11. A Prayer When You Cannot Carry It All

    · 6:06

    Growing up with only four books — a dictionary, two language dictionaries, and Grimms’ Fairy Tales — could have been a limitation. Instead, it became the foundation for a love of learning that was then passed down to…

  12. A Prayer for God to Lead Bosses

    · 6:56

    God cares deeply about how those in authority treat the people under their care. The parable of the landowner in Matthew 20 models a boss who is strikingly generous — paying workers hired at the end of the day the same…

  13. A Prayer for Peace-Filled Focus

    · 7:01

    A garbage disposal that stopped working, then started again, then stopped again — two days of fussing with the fuse, and finally the discovery that the whole unit was rusted out and dripping from the bottom. In the…

  14. A Prayer When You Feel Forgotten in a Waiting Season

    · 7:06

    One of the hardest parts of waiting is not always the waiting itself. It is the quiet, persistent question that surfaces when another month passes with no answer, when someone else’s prayer is answered while yours…

  15. A Prayer for Your Family’s New School Year

    · 6:48

    The crisp air of fall arrives, and with it a new school year — new classrooms, new teachers, new schedules, and for many children, new influences that may challenge what they have been taught at home. Parents do well…

  16. A Prayer for When You Really Don't Know What to Do

    · 7:49

    Second Chronicles 20:12 contains one of the most honest prayers in Scripture, offered by King Jehoshaphat when three armies were advancing and there was genuinely nothing left to do in human terms: we do not know what…

  17. A Prayer to Prioritize Your Time Better

    · 6:24

    Matthew 6:33 cuts through the noise of a full schedule with a command that is both simple and demanding: seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Jesus was…

  18. A Prayer to Celebrate Marriage

    · 6:59

    Ecclesiastes 4:12 declares that a cord of three strands is not quickly broken — and the third strand is God. A union centered on Him is made strong not because the two people are perfect, but because the One who holds…

  19. A Prayer to Check the Plank In My Own Eye

    · 6:53

    Can you imagine actually having to pull an entire plank out of your eye? The image is jarring on purpose. Jesus had a way of turning things upside down and bringing people down from their high horses with a single,…

  20. A Prayer for the Homeschool Family

    · 6:48

    School is not our life, but it is a part of our life. It is the refrain offered when children protest the more structured parts of learning, when the grumbling starts and the playing has to stop. And underneath that…

  21. Sharing the Story You Were Meant to Share

    · 5:47

    When God does a completed work in our lives, it is like a fine pearl. Some wear their pearls for all to see. Others treasure them quietly within the chambers of the heart. Both responses are understandable — the things…

  22. A Prayer to Remember God Is in the Great Outdoors

    · 6:57

    Biblical scholars estimate Jesus taught in nearly 150 different outdoor settings; from mountainsides and shorelines to roads, fields, rivers, and wilderness. His parables were full of wildflowers, birds, mustard seeds,…

  23. A Prayer for Quiet Trust in God

    · 7:14

    Long summer days carry a particular quality of stillness — golden light that seems to shimmer in the distance, steady heat that slows the pace of everything, the world resting under an unhurried sun. It is not always…

  24. A Prayer to Recommit Your Marriage

    · 6:12

    Sitting on a porch with a grandmother whose decades of faith were as steady as the chair she sat in, sharing the honest truth that sometimes it is difficult to actually like a husband even when you love him — and…

  25. A Prayer to Protect Your Words

    · 7:19

    Most of us know the feeling — the words left our mouth before we thought them through, and the moment they landed we wished we could pull them back. A sharp remark in an argument, a piece of gossip shared too freely, a…

  26. A Prayer for Single-Hearted Focus in a Busy Season

    · 6:27

    The enemy does not need us in open rebellion to keep us ineffective. Distracted and scattered is enough. If he cannot make us bad, he will make us busy — busy enough that the two things that matter most get quietly…

  27. A Prayer for Making Minutes Matter

    · 6:37

    A driver unwilling to wait a few minutes for a train to pass tried to race across the tracks and did not make it. Those few minutes cost him his life. It is a stark and sobering picture, but it opens a question worth…

  28. A Prayer for Transformation from the Inside Out

    · 6:41

    Sanctification — being set apart, made holy, conformed to the image of Christ — is not a self-improvement project. It is the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit in the life of every believer, and 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24…

  29. A Prayer to Wait Well When We Are in A Season of Uncertainty

    · 5:42

    Sitting on a porch in Peñuelas, Puerto Rico, a woman shared through a gifted translator that she had been praying for over a year for someone to come and fix her roof. She had never imagined the answer would arrive in…

  30. A Prayer for Endurance in Suffering

    · 7:32

    Autumn is a season of beauty and anticipation — cooler temperatures, the approach of the holidays, the warm rituals of the season. And for some, it is also a season layered with grief. A father murdered. Two…

  31. A Prayer to Be Honest When Talking to God

    · 5:51

    A daughter watching her mother walk through the pasture behind the house, apparently arguing with no one, asking afterward if she had been praying — because she seemed pretty annoyed. The answer was yes. The pasture is…

  32. A Prayer to Have Mountain Moving Faith

    · 6:27

    Harold had a purple crayon that could bring anything into being — a bicycle, a friend, an entire world drawn from imagination. Children accept that kind of possibility without hesitation. But somewhere between…

  33. A Prayer for Strife in Friendships

    · 6:40

    When a close friend begins to embrace theological views that feel like a personal betrayal, the temptation is not always to lash out directly. Sometimes it is subtler — social media posts crafted in response,…

  34. A Prayer of Gratitude for the Gift of Seasons

    · 6:55

    Psalm 104 opens and closes with the same three words — Praise the Lord — and in between, it builds like a rising crescendo of awe, moving through the wonders of creation until it arrives at verse 19 with a brief but…

  35. A Prayer for Contentment in All Areas of Life

    · 6:31

    A simple question from a trusted friend — "What is your life's passion?" — has a way of revealing what we have not been willing to see in ourselves. The automatic answer was to serve Jesus. But the honest follow-up…

  36. A Prayer to Welcome Autumn

    · 6:28

    Autumn is the season of watching the old leave so that the new may appear. It arrives with a bittersweet quality — a farewell to the vibrancy of spring and summer, a slow surrender to the approaching grays of winter,…

  37. God Directs Our Paths: A Conversation with Franklin Graham | Bonus |

    · 27 min · Bonus

    A special episode from "On The Ground" with Samaritan's Purse As believers, we trust in God—we don’t trust in ourselves or in our own understanding. Franklin Graham joins his daughter-in-law in the studio this week to…

  38. A Prayer for the Days You Want to Give Up

    · 8:16

    Nobody explains that the days before a funeral are full. Phone calls, decisions, forms, food, people in the kitchen, a program to approve, flowers to choose. Grief has a to-do list, and you work it because the working…

  39. A Prayer for Confidence That God’s Help Will Come Through

    · 6:45

    Psalm 28:7 arrived as a gift during a quiet morning devotional time, hours before that exact conversation had to happen: the Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and He helps me. It is one of…

  40. A Prayer to Discover Wonder in Your Routines

    · 7:26

    Late summer and early fall bring a familiar rhythm: school schedules resume, new work projects launch, church programs begin, and the calendar fills back up almost immediately. Routines become necessary to manage it…

  41. A Prayer for God to Turn a Heart of Stone Into a Heart of Flesh

    · 4:55

    The book of Ezekiel was written during one of the darkest chapters in Israel's history. During the Babylonian captivity, the people were weary, rebellious, and spiritually dry. Their hope had been decimated. And yet,…

  42. A Prayer for Your Legacy

    · 6:39

    Legacy is not built in grand, dramatic moments. It is built in the daily choices that accumulate over a lifetime: choosing honesty when hiding the truth would be easier, offering kindness when impatience is closer to…

  43. A Prayer to Overcome What’s Holding You Back

    · 7:50

    Isaiah 43 holds a question worth sitting with: God tells His people He is doing something new and then asks, "Do you not see it?" Sometimes we do not see it because we are still looking backward. Past disappointment…

  44. A Prayer for God to Show You Where You Need to Change

    · 5:19

    It is possible to feel like you are managing everything reasonably well — checking in with the people in your life, not overcommitting, trying to be thoughtful — and still have something important fall out of order.…

  45. A Prayer to Be Patient with Your Progress

    · 7:07

    1 Corinthians 13 is most often read at weddings, held up as the standard for the love we give away to another person. And it is all of that. But it is also something else — a love letter from God to us, intended to…

  46. A Prayer for Noticing More

    · 7:42

    Most of us move through the world on autopilot — not because we are incapable of noticing, but because we have stopped choosing to. We walk past the bee covered in pollen, the walking stick on a wooden bench, the…

  47. A Prayer Because the Silence Is the Hardest Part

    · 7:54

    A seventeen-year-old in a dorm room, alone for the first time, with a rule she had made for herself: no calling home before Friday. She would prove she could do this. So she sat in the silence and counted the days, and…

  48. A Prayer to Forgo Comparison

    · 7:45

    Scrolling through social media on a day that already feels heavy is one of the fastest ways to make a hard day harder. A friend's vacation photos, another's daughter's list of achievements, before-and-after weight loss…

  49. A Prayer for the Woman Waiting, Whispering Prayers, and Wanting a Child

    · 6:33

    God sees the woman who is aching for a child. He sees her in the middle of the night, in the quiet places where the longing is too heavy to carry out loud, in the vulnerable late-night moments when words finally escape…

  50. A Prayer of Repentance Without Condemnation

    · 7:41

    Repentance has a reputation problem. For many people, the word carries a weight of shame, punishment, and finger-pointing that makes it something to avoid rather than something to run toward. But that understanding…
