A Prayer to Practice by Nicolet Bell Just like physical training strengthens our bodies, spiritual training strengthens our hearts and faith. The habits we repeat daily become second nature, shaping our reactions and responses when pressure comes.In today's episode by Nicolet Bell, she encourages us to consistently practice prayer, gratitude, worship, and scripture reading. When we implement habits, they become our spiritual reflexes—helping us stand firm and respond with faith in life’s big moments. God uses the quiet, unremarkable moments of obedience to prepare us for greater challenges and opportunities ahead. Reference: 1 Timothy 4:8 Prayer: Father, help us to not be afraid to put in the practice of spiritual discipline. We know that the quiet, ordinary moments are preparing us for the big moments and the challenges we will face. Show us when and where we need to put the reps in, knowing that we don’t work to earn our salvation but we do work out our salvation, each day drawing closer to you. In Jesus name, amen.

A Prayer for God to Continue the Good Word He Has Started by: Gina Smith Parenting doesn’t end when our kids become adults—it simply changes form. In this episode from Gina Smith, we reflect on the truth of Philippians 1:6 and the lifelong process of trusting God to continue His good work in our children. From the early days of learning that every child is uniquely created, to the complex seasons of parenting adult children, this devotion reminds us that God is the one shaping their hearts and guiding their growth. Reference: Philippians 1:6 Prayer: Father, thank you for the promise that you will complete the good work that you have begun in my children, in me, and in our family. Help me to rely on you as you grow my children into their new roles as adults and help me to not have expectations or make everything about me. Help me to be able to patiently step back and allow them to learn and grow as adults and help me to continue to grow and learn in my new role as mom of adult children. I want it all about you and your work in their lives, and not about me and what I hope our relationship might look like.

A Prayer for God to Keep You The short letter of Jude—only one page in most Bibles—packs profound truth for believers. Today's episode by Brooke McGlothlin dives into the first few verses in Jude and she remind us that those who belong to God are called, beloved, and kept. The word “kept,” or “preserved” in the King James Version, speaks of God’s continual care and protection over His people.To “preserve” means to safeguard, protect, or maintain. Unlike our own imperfect efforts to keep things in order, God never fails to keep what belongs to Him. Reference: Matthew 6:34 Prayer: Father, thank you for keeping me and thank you for keeping my children. Left to myself I know I would never, left to myself I know I would never be able to stay. There's too much sin still in my heart and it's prone to wonder from you. The knowledge that you will preserve me, that you will guard me and keep me from stumbling, brings me so much peace. In Jesus' name, amen. LINKS: How to Pray God's Word For Your Children Guide Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMoms Get today's devotion and prayer in written form to keep for future use!

A Prayer for When You Feel Like Your Prayers Aren't Being Answered Have you ever prayed for something and felt like God wasn't answering? Today's episode by Nicolet Bell takes us through the words of Psalm 34. We are reminded that God always hears our prayers—though not always in the way we expect. True prayer draws us closer to the heart of God, shifting our focus from seeking the gift to desiring the Giver. Reference: Psalm 34:4 Prayer: Father, help me to believe that you hear and respond to my prayers. Help me to trust in your character even when life doesn’t go the way I want or expect. I release my expectations to you and trust you with the outcome of my requests. Strengthen my faith by the power of your Spirit. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

A Prayer to Not Hit the Panic Button What does it really mean to bring everything—big or small—to God in prayer? In today's episode by Nicolet Bell we look at Philippians 4:6 and we are reminded that Paul, who had every reason to be anxious, encourages us to pray in every situation with thanksgiving. Prayer is not our last resort—it’s our first and best response. As John Wesley once wrote, “Prayer is our grand means of drawing nearer to God.” Reference: Philippians 4:6 Prayer: Father, help me to seek you in prayer daily as my first and best response. Please help me not to hit the panic button until I speak to you. I trust that you will meet me when I come to you in prayer, helping me release my anxieties and exchanging them for thankfulness. Show me how to make praying for my family a priority. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

A Prayer for Living a Righteous Life What does it really mean to “live to righteousness.” At first glance, living for what is right can seem restrictive or dull — especially in a world that values self-gratification and personal freedom. Today's episode by Christie Thomas reminds us that living for Jesus isn’t a burden; it’s freedom. Living for Jesus brings freedom from regret, freedom to choose wisely, and freedom to walk in peace and purpose. Whether you’ve followed Him for years or just discovered His grace, this episode reminds us that God redeems lost years and invites us daily into a life of hope and holiness. Reference: 1 Peter 2:24-25 Prayer: Thank you, Jesus, for bearing my sins and your body so that I might die to sin and live for righteousness. Please forgive me for the times I've lived for sin instead of righteousness. Fill me with your power so I can make choices that honor you and show love to the world. In Jesus' name, amen.

A Prayer for Our Children to Apply Themselves Diligence is not relentless busyness, but as faithful perseverance in small, steady steps. Today's episode by Tara L. Cole reminds parents and students alike that diligence is not about perfection or speed, but about showing up faithfully.

A Prayer to Finish In a culture that often prizes speed and instant results, what if we chose to slow down, stay focused, and trust God to bring His work in us to completion. In today's prayer by Nicolet Bell,we look at the story of Solomon completing the temple — a dream that began in the heart of his father, King David. Though David longed to build a dwelling place for God, the Lord chose Solomon to carry out the task. Instead of being resentful, David prepared his son for success by gathering materials, providing detailed plans, and encouraging him to serve God with an undivided heart. Reference: 1 Kings 6:14 Prayer: Father, I thank you for the example of Solomon to show us what hard work and perseverance looks like. His commitment to begin and finish a task, his assignment from you is an incredible witness to us. Help us to stay focused on the tasks you have given us. Guard us from distractions and sluggishness. I am confident that you who began a good work in me will carry it out to completion.

A Prayer for Growth to be a Good Friend In today's episode, Monica Swanson shares practical wisdom for parents on how to harness the power of good influences to help children grow in character and faith. From the friends they spend time with to the media they consume, every influence matters. While we can’t control every outside factor, we can teach and model what it looks like to choose wisely and prayerfully. Reference: Proverbs 13:20 Prayer: Heavenly Father, I pray that you would bring good and godly friends and influences into my child's life and protect him or her from ungodly influences. In 1 Corinthians 1533, we are reminded the bad company corrupts good character. From friendships to choices about entertainment, music, internet, and social media, I pray that my child would be attracted to good, wholesome, and helpful influences. Finally, I pray that my child would grow to be a good friend and godly influence in others' lives. Let him or her shine your light in such a way that others may see his or her good deeds and glorify their Father in heaven. That's from Matthew 5:16. In Jesus' name, amen.

A Prayer to Be Weak May we be moms who see weakness not as failure, but as an opportunity for God’s power to shine through. In today's episode, Brooke McGlothlin helps us see that we all have moments when we feel like we’re not enough — when the chaos, exhaustion, or guilt of motherhood makes us want to quit trying. But instead of glorifying our weaknesses and letting them drain our hope, we can use them to glorify God. Reference: 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 Prayer: Father, I confess to you that I feel so weak. I constantly wonder If the things that I do wrong on the daily with my children are going to cause them problems in the future But today I pray that you would help me to take heart Hold on But today I pray that you would help me to do something different Help me father to boast in my weaknesses and then be truly strong. May your strength Hold on. May the power of Christ rest upon me and for the sake of Christ help me to be content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities for when I am weak then I am strong.

A Prayer to Learn to Love Yourself We all have moments when we struggle to see ourselves the way God sees us. Whether it’s our physical appearance, our talents, or our personality, it’s easy to let insecurity, comparison, or shame distort our reflection. But Scripture tells us something far greater: we are made fearfully and wonderfully made and intentionally crafted for good works.Today's episode by Rachael Adams is a reminder that when we accept who He made us to be, we can better love others as He commands. Reference: Ephesians 2:10 Prayer: Father, thank you for creating me in your image. Remind me of my inherent worth and significance in you.

A Prayer to Release Competitiveness Those who lift themselves up will be brought low, and those who humble themselves will be lifted up.In today's episode, @@nicolet_bell reminds us that we live in an ultra-competitive world where winning, achieving, and being seen as “the best” often take priority. But God invites us to live differently — to put others before ourselves and to let our humility point people toward Him. Reference: Luke 14: 7-11 Prayer: Lord, forgive me for allowing my pride and competitive nature to affect the way I treat other people. Enable me to lift them up, to help them recognize their worth.

A Prayer for When Your Strength Runs Out Through exhaustion and feelings of failure, we can learn that peace doesn’t come from personal control or independence, but from resting in the power and grace of God.Today's episode by Brooke McGlothlin shares a powerful reflection on God’s strength and peace—illustrated by the vast, mighty ocean. Reference: Psalm 29:11 Prayer: Father, if I rely on my own strength, it will eventually fail. If I try to find my peace outside of you, I will eventually run out.

A Prayer to Be a Godly Empty Nest Mom Parenthood often brings with it fears—fear of repeating unhealthy family patterns, fear of failure, and fear of wounding the ones we love most. But Scripture reminds us that we are not defined by our past or bound by old habits.In today's prayer, Gina Smith reminds us that through seasons of raising young children and then learning how to love and support adult children, the temptation to fall back into fear and old ways remains. Yet God’s Word offers freedom: we are new creations in Christ. His Spirit empowers us to parent, love, and live in a way that glorifies Him, no matter what stage of life we are in. Reference: 2 Corinthians 5:17 Prayer: Father, help me to live by the Spirit and to focus on the fact that I am a new creation and I don’t need to fear repeating patterns that are in my family. As I walk in this reality, please give me the opportunity to show my children what it means to be a new creation and be an example of what it means to live for you and be controlled by your Spirit. I want to leave the past behind and not be defined by what has happened to me or what I may have done. Please renew my mind, conform me into your image, and cause this transformation to be lived out in all that I do. My hope is in you alone.

It’s not always easy—just like tending a garden takes sweat, patience, and perseverance—but sowing peace is always worth the effort. God promises a harvest of righteousness for those who keep planting seeds of reconciliation, dignity, and honor. Reference: James 3:18 Prayer: Father, give me and my family the desire to do the right thing, even if the favor isn't returned, sowing seeds of peace in the dark, troubled places of our lives.

Loving our neighbor means recognizing needs and acting in compassion, without bias or judgment. Reference: Mark 12:31 Prayer: Father, some people are easy to love, but others can be more difficult. Forgive me for not reaching out to my neighbors when I should have. Lead me to know when and how to help the people you have intentionally placed around me.

Against all odds, Peter obeyed and witnessed a miracle.. Reference: Luke 5: 1-9 Prayer: Jesus, I give this messy life to you. These messy kids, my messy attempts to be what they need, our messy, sinful responses to life. I give it all to you. Meet me here in these moments.

In today's episode, Nicolet Bell reminds us that parenting is a roller coaster, but God calls us to keep His Word central in family life and trust Him to work in the hearts of our children.Deuteronomy 6 reminds us that the Word of God should be woven into the everyday rhythms of our homes, even as our kids squirm, giggle, or pout. What matters most is that we are faithfully pointing them to Scripture. Reference: Deuteronomy 6:6-7 Prayer: Father, remind us of the importance of impressing your word on our children. Help us to remember and talk about your word as a part of our daily rythmns and routines. Help us to be intentional in pointing our children to you.

A Prayer to Combat Comparison Have you ever walked away from a playdate, a scroll through social media, or a simple conversation and suddenly felt like you or your family weren’t “enough”? Today's prayer by Nicolet Bell reminds us that comparison sneaks in quickly and quietly, leaving us unsettled, discontent, and distracted from the joy God desires for us. We reflect on Galatians 1:10 and the truth that we cannot seek the approval of people and the approval of God at the same time. Reference: Galatians 1:10 Prayer: Father, reveal to us who we are trying to please. In a world in constant comparison, help us to model for our children what it looks like to seek your approval, and yours alone. Guard our hearts and the hearts of our children so we might have sole devotion to you.

A Prayer for a Servant's Heart One of the most powerful acts of humility recorded in Scripture—Jesus washing His disciples’ feet.In today's episode, Nicolet Bell helps us reflect on how this simple yet profound act shows us what it means to live with a servant’s heart. Jesus set the ultimate example of love, humility, and forgiveness.We are reminded that following Jesus means picking up the “towel” daily—choosing to serve and forgive, even when it’s uncomfortable. Reference: Psalm 139:7-12 Prayer: Father, I take such comfort in the fact that Even when I can't see my children, you can. There's nowhere they can go, nothing they can do, and no place they can hide, that they're outside the boundary of your love and your presence.

Even in places we cannot see or reach, He is there—leading, guiding, and holding them close. Reference: Psalm 139: 7-12 Prayer: Father, I take such comfort in the fact that Even when I can't see my children, you can.

A Liturgy for a Heart of Hospitality How can we better welcome others into our lives and homes as Christ has welcomed us? Today's prayer by Abby Kuykendall is an invitation. Through prayer, scripture, and confession, we can be reminded that hospitality is not about perfection but about creating space for God’s love to be experienced by those around us. As we open our hearts and tables, we become reflections of the generous, welcoming God who first made room for us. Reference: Hebrews 13: 1-2 Prayer: Father, you are the epitome of hospitality. A God unlike any other. Your open arms and welcoming table invite all to come to you. You have made a home for us in your kingdom and provided everything we need. Help me to be disciplined in serving others and showing hospitality to all. I desire to reflect you. Open my heart to the needs of others and empower me to offer hospitality without hesitation. May my home be a place of comfort and solace so that no matter what circumstances people find themselves in, my table would welcome them just like the example you gave by welcoming us to your table.

A Prayer for Reconcilliation In today's episode by Gina L. Smith, we reflect on the ministry of reconciliation and how it applies to one of the most important relationships in our lives—our relationships with our parents. For years, family dynamics, unspoken pain, and even cultural labels cancloud how we see those who raised us. But Scripture calls us to view others not from a worldly perspective, but through the eyes of Christ.Parents are more than their shortcomings, and when we choose to see them with compassion, we open the door for healing, restoration, and peace. Reference: 2 Corinthians 5: 16-20 Prayer: Father, help me to see my parents through eyes of grace, not from a worldly point of view, but through your eyes. Help me to follow your example and be an ambassador of reconciliation. In the same way that I have been reconciled to you, being loved and forgiven unconditionally, I pray that I would seek that in my relationships , especially in my relationship with my parents. Help me to see the good they have done, and how you have sovereignly used them in my life, and not just those things that were not done perfectly. As I live this reconciliation and grace out, may those around you come to know you and be reconciled to you as well.

A Prayer to Bear Fruit What does it truly mean to bear fruit? In today's prayer by Nicolet Bell we will uncover why “fruit” is singular and how the Spirit works holistically in our lives. It is a powerful reminder that abiding in Jesus is the only way to bear fruit that lasts. Reference: John 15:5 Prayer: Father, reveal any areas of my life that aren’t bearing your fruit. Help me to submit to your careful and caring pruning hand. Help me to model this for my children. Empty me of myself and fill me with your Spirit, that I might bear your fruit.

A Prayer Not to Rush God’s timing is always intentional and perfect.Today's prayer by Nicolet Bell looks at the story of Jesus healing the blind man at Bethsaida. Rather than healing instantly, Jesus chose a gradual process—first partial sight, then complete clarity. This miracle serves as a powerful illustration of how spiritual growth often unfolds over time. Just as the disciples’ understanding of Jesus deepened step by step, our own faith—and the faith of our children—develops progressively, not all at once. Reference: Mark 8:22-26 Prayer: Jesus, thank You for walking with me daily through this journey of life. I know I need Your gentle reminders that developing maturity takes time for both me and my children. Give me patience as I work through the challenges of each day. Help me to release my frustration to You when I wish I were farther along in my spiritual walk than I am and to trust in Your faithfulness to transform me into Your likeness. In Your name, amen.

A Prayer to Cultivate Kindness Motherhood is filled with both chaos and sweetness. In today’s devotion, we reflect on the small yet powerful acts of kindness and those tender moments that remind us of God’s love. We are reminded that we don’t always need the perfect words or solutions when others are hurting. Often, presence, gentleness, and kindness speak louder than advice. Reference: Ephesians 4:32 Prayer: Thank you God for your loving kindness. Help me to respond to the needs of others with kindness every day in every way. Teach me to react with kind words and deeds instead of anger or frustration. Help me lead my children to be kind by example.

A Prayer to Combat Jealousy Jealousy is a subtle but destructive force that can creep into our hearts and relationships. In today's episode, we look at King Saul’s jealousy of David, the “green-eyed monster” Shakespeare warned of, and how jealousy can consume us if left unchecked. Through personal stories—including a lesson from kids’ soccer trophies—we explore how jealousy separates us, while love and gratitude draw us closer to God and one another. Reference: Proverbs 14:30 Prayer: Jesus, forgive me for being jealous of others. Help me to remain humble and grateful for all the blessings in my life, and to rejoice when blessings come to others. Show me the warning signs when the green-eyed monster rears its ugly head in my or my kids’ hearts, and give me the wisdom to help them navigate those situations with grace. Lord, set my children free from jealousy so that they may see others as co-laborers for Christ, rather than competitors. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

A Prayer for Comfort As I Anticipate the Next Season Have you ever sat in the bittersweet moments of parenting—when children begin to step into independence, and the reality of them slowly leaving home starts to set in?It’s in these tender seasons of grief and transition that God reminds us He is the God of all comfort, walking with us through each change. Reference: 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 Prayer: Father, you are the Father of mercies and comfort. Thank you for allowing me the freedom to grieve and for promising that you are there to comfort and uphold me. I need your strength and comfort as my children get older, more independent, and eventually leave home. I want to glorify you in this transition, even though it is one of the hardest life changes.

What if hospitality wasn’t about a spotless home, the perfect meal, or curated moments—but simply about presence? A Prayer for an Open Door Today’s episode by Abby Kuykendall, we explore the beauty of opening our doors, fingerprints and all, and welcoming others the way Christ welcomes us. From Zacchaeus’ messy house to Matthew’s table full of “disreputable sinners,” Scripture reminds us that hospitality is about grace, not performance. Reference: Matthew 9:10 Prayer: Lord, you see the hearts of every mom juggling laundry, dinner, errands and little hands tugging at her all at once. You know the weight we carry when we feel like we have to do it all and do it perfectly. But you remind us in Hebrews 12, one, to lay aside every weight and sin which clings so closely and to run with endurance the race that is set before us. Today we choose to throw off the heavy cloak of perfection that entangles us and instead fix our eyes on you. Our hospitable Lord who has prepared a table for us and invited us in. Teach us to work diligently, not for the applause, but out of love for you. Help us to see that an open heart matters more than a perfect home and that every act of service is holy when it's done for you. Let our homes be places of peace, our tables be places of welcome, and our lives a reflection of your open armed grace. In Jesus' name, amen.
