Bible Verse: “But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you…” - Matthew 5:43-47 (NIV) ✨ Daily Meditation: In today’s profound devotional, Jaime Hampton, host of Praying Christian Women Podcast., explores one of Jesus’ most radical and challenging teachings: loving our enemies. This message, drawn from the Sermon on the Mount, calls us not only to tolerate but to bless, pray for, and show compassion to those who oppose or hurt us. We are reminded that our real enemy is not flesh and blood, but the spiritual forces of evil (Ephesians 6:12). When we shift from retaliation to intercession, we begin to see others through God’s eyes — as image-bearers, not adversaries. It’s in these moments of surrendered love that God does His deepest transformative work in us and through us.

In today’s powerful devotional prayer, Jaime Hampton, host of Praying Christian Women, reflects on the spiritual battles we all face—and the truth that God is the Lord of Breakthrough. Just as He delivered King David from the hands of the Philistines, God stands ready to break through the strongholds, doubts, and despair that wage war against us today. Whether you're weary from long-standing struggles, facing impossible odds, or simply feeling spiritually stuck, this episode will remind you that you serve a matchless, miracle-working God who fights for you and calls you to take back what’s yours in Him. There is no battle too great for the God of Israel, your God.

According to a recent survey from Gusto, LGBTQ entrepreneurs are starting businesses in record numbers. Then Transportation Secretary Duffy is targeting Rainbow Crosswalks as distracting and political, though he is basing his opposition for the crosswalks on opinion and no facts or data. Finally, hotel etiquette and respect for staff and public area behavior is a thing of the past. Showing up in the lobby barefoot and in pajamas while talking loudly on cell calls with no shoes in common areas is more prevalent than you would think.

Today's Bible Verse: Numbers 6:24-26 –“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.” ✨ Daily Meditation: This moving prayer by Amanda Idleman is a sacred reminder that every child is a gift from God, no matter the circumstances of their arrival. When Amanda and her family were called to foster a fragile newborn in the NICU, the decision was steeped in uncertainty, yet grounded in fierce faith. God answered their prayers for life and protection, showing that parenting is a holy calling and children are never a burden—they are a blessing of eternal value. Whether you're welcoming your first child, navigating the complexities of fostering or adoption, or simply praying over the next generation, this episode reminds us that God hears, responds, and walks with us in the journey of parenting.

Following Jesus isn’t a one-time declaration—it’s a daily act of courage.

Whether you're facing conflict, battling pride, or resisting worldly pressures, this prayer equips you to walk boldly and consistently in God's truth.

Summer often promises freedom, rest, and joy— but reality doesn’t always match the dream. Between busy parenting schedules, financial constraints, and constant demands, finding rest can feel like just another to-do. In today’s devotional, Amanda Idleman reminds us that rest isn’t a luxury—it’s a spiritual necessity. Even Jesus paused. And He invites us to do the same. Whether your summer includes an exotic getaway or quiet backyard mornings, this prayerful reflection urges us to shift our mindset and embrace intentional stillness. Rest doesn’t require a plane ticket—just a willing heart and open spirit. ✨ What You’ll Learn: Why rest is not selfish, but sacred How to find soul-level restoration even if you can’t take a vacation Simple practices to help slow down and reconnect with God this summer Encouragement for parents and those feeling weary from daily demands

Grief isn’t linear, and missing a loved one can surface in quiet, unexpected ways—through a song, a scent, or a season. In this deeply personal episode, Rachel Wojo, host of Untangling Prayer opens her heart about the loss of her mother, father, and daughter, and how that ache of absence continues to shape her. Psalm 34:18 reminds us that God doesn’t retreat when we are brokenhearted—He draws near. He doesn’t demand we “get over it.” Instead, He sits with us in our sadness. Missing someone is a reflection of great love, and Rachel beautifully invites us to honor that love, hold it close, and find solace in God’s eternal presence. ✨ What You’ll Learn: Why it’s okay to grieve deeply and long for someone who’s gone How God gently meets us in the midst of our heartbreak The truth that missing someone is a sign of how deeply we loved How to move forward while honoring a loved one’s memory

What does it mean to truly walk by the Spirit? In today’s heartfelt devotional, Annie Yorty shares the touching story of her loyal dog, Misha, whose devotion to her offers a living illustration of what it means to stay close to God’s Spirit. Just as Misha shadowed her every move—never straying far—so too are we invited to abide in the presence of the Holy Spirit, seeking God's will and resting in His love. Drawing from Galatians 5:25, Annie reminds us that walking in step with God is more than a quiet metaphor—it’s a daily, intentional choice to live under the guidance and care of our ever-present Helper. Whether we face distractions, temptations, or spiritual fatigue, the invitation remains: draw near, walk closely, and let the Spirit lead. ✨ Main Takeaways Galatians 5:25 calls believers to actively “keep in step with the Spirit,” implying discipline, intimacy, and direction in daily life. Walking with God means turning away from distractions, temptations, and the lure of the flesh. Staying close to God brings protection, discernment, and peace—just like a loyal pet finds security beside its owner. The Holy Spirit grieves when we drift, but His call to return is always tender and redemptive.

The Church was never meant to be stagnant, divided, or distracted. In this urgent and inspiring devotional, Victoria Riollano shares her perspective as a pastor’s wife and spiritual leader, reminding us that revival doesn’t begin in a building—it begins in the hearts of believers. Too often, churches are caught in petty divisions or cultural debates, losing sight of the Great Commission. Drawing from Matthew 28:19-20, Victoria calls the Church back to its original mission: to go, make disciples, and teach the truth of the Gospel. True revival demands action, humility, and a renewed commitment to live and proclaim the good news of Jesus. Revival is possible—but it starts with us.

Daily Meditation Forgiveness can be one of the hardest steps to take, especially when it involves the deep wounds left by a father’s shortcomings. In this heartfelt devotional, Lynette Kittle explores how unforgiveness can become a barrier, not just in our relationships with our fathers, but in our walk with God. Rooted in Ephesians 6:4 and the truth of God’s character, this reflection invites us to consider the healing that comes from releasing bitterness and embracing the love of our Heavenly Father. In forgiving our fathers, we don’t excuse their failures—we open our hands to receive the perfect love and guidance of our true Father in Heaven.

Daily Meditation In times of overwhelming needs—our own and those we carry for others—it’s easy to feel like prayer isn’t enough. In this heartfelt devotional, Laura Bailey reflects on how the Holy Spirit meets us in our weakness, interceding on our behalf when words fall short. Rooted in Romans 8:27, Laura reminds us that prayer isn’t a last resort—it’s the first response. Even when we can’t articulate our needs, the Spirit who searches hearts and minds brings our burdens before the Father. This gentle meditation invites us to let go of striving and rest in the assurance that the Spirit prays perfectly for us, aligning our hearts with God’s will.

Gracious God, thank you that you are always with me. Even when things do not go as planned, I know I am safe in your care. - Gem Fadling, host of the Unhurried Living Podcast Daily Meditation Travel delays can quickly unravel even the best-laid plans, stirring up stress and frustration.

Rooted in Psalm 73:23-26, this reflection is a tender reminder that patience isn’t just about waiting well; it’s about experiencing God’s nearness in the chaos. Whether you’re navigating delays in airports, or delays in the larger journey of life, this prayer invites you to pause, center yourself in the moment, and remember that you’re never alone.

My wife has recently painted these words on a wall in our house as a reminder to us both: “Mightier than the waves of the sea, is His love for us!” (Inspired by Psalm 93:4). Please remember this. Mightier than the tempest you are facing is His love for you! - Chris Eyte Daily Meditation When life crashes over us like an impossible wave—unexpected illness, personal crises, or spiritual darkness—it’s easy to feel utterly hopeless. In this moving devotional, Chris Eyte shares his miraculous journey from the brink of death to full recovery after a brain bleed. His story is a testament that God truly makes the impossible possible. Rooted in Matthew 19:26, this reflection reminds us that even when our own strength fails, the “J Factor”—Jesus Christ Himself—steps in. His name, “God With Us,” is a promise that no situation is beyond His power or love.

Daily Meditation When life’s calendar overflows with commitments, it can be hard to discern what’s truly important. In this relatable devotional, Laura Bailey reflects on how our time can quickly get consumed by good things—yet still leave us feeling spiritually empty. She draws from 1 Corinthians 10:23 to challenge us to rethink our calendars, our hearts, and our priorities. Through a busy season of endless events, Laura invites us to pause and ask: Just because we can, does that mean we should? By seeking the Lord’s guidance, we can learn to live more intentionally, create margin for the things that matter most, and align our lives with the eternal purpose of serving and glorifying God.

Created in God's image, we have emotions because He has emotions. However, we often allow our emotions to cause us to lose sight of our Savior rather than prompting us to draw near Him. - Ashley Moore Daily Meditation Difficult days can quickly spiral us into self-pity, frustration, or confusion. Ashley Moore vulnerably shares how it’s easy to get stuck in those emotions, losing sight of God’s presence and peace. In this devotional, she invites us to shift our focus from the storm to the Savior. Rooted in 1 Thessalonians 5:18, this episode reminds us that God doesn’t ask us to pretend our troubles don’t exist—He asks us to bring them to Him. Even in the hardest circumstances, giving thanks for God’s unchanging nature opens the door to His peace and perspective. When we trade tunnel vision for a heart of gratitude, we discover God’s refuge in the midst of the mess.

Humility is a mind that is set on Christ with submission to the will of God. When we bow in submission to the Lord, He will come to our rescue. - Christine Perry Humility doesn’t come naturally. It’s a posture of the heart that requires daily surrender to God’s will. In this reflective devotional, Christine Perry unpacks the powerful example of Jesus, who willingly set aside His divine privileges to serve and save. Rooted in Philippians 2:6-8, this message calls us to reject pride and embrace a servant’s heart, trusting that God uses even our trials to refine our character. Just as David and Job learned profound humility in their afflictions, we’re reminded that true greatness comes not from self-promotion but from bowing before the Lord and letting Him lift us up.
