Today's Bible Verse: “I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.” – John 15:15 Loneliness can make us feel unseen, unwanted, and disconnected—but Jesus speaks directly to that ache. He doesn’t just see us as followers or workers in His kingdom; He calls us friends. That means closeness, intimacy, and belonging are at the heart of His relationship with us. Even in seasons when no one else seems near, we are never without the presence of the One who knows us completely and calls us His own.

Parenting is holy work—but also hard, messy, exhausting, and humbling. In this heartfelt devotional and prayer, Peyton Garland draws an unexpected connection between plant care and child-rearing, sharing how becoming a “plant lady” during pregnancy gave her new eyes to see how growth, nurture, and resilience apply to raising kids. Whether you’re parenting toddlers, teens, or navigating young adulthood, Peyton encourages you to plant flowers in the trenches. That means practicing vulnerability, modeling God’s grace, and creating an atmosphere of love, humility, and honesty within your home. Even when the days feel muddy or the nights are sleepless, God is with you in the thick of it. As Isaiah promises, the Lord will guide and strengthen you, turning your weary places into flourishing gardens. Today's Bible Verse: “The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.” – Isaiah 58:11 (NIV)
Today's Bible Verse: “But he himself went a days journey into the wilderness and came and sat under a broom tree. he asked that he might die, saying, “It is enough now, O Lord. Take away my life. For I am not better than my fathers.”’” – 1 Kings 19:4 Even the strongest believers can reach a breaking point. Elijah had just witnessed God’s power in extraordinary ways, yet here he was—alone, exhausted, and ready to give up. In this moment of deep despair, God didn’t scold him; He sent rest, nourishment, and a renewed mission. When we’re worn out, God meets us with gentle care before calling us forward again. Your exhaustion isn’t the end of your story—God can use this season to restore your strength and rebuild your purpose.
Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMomsA Prayer For EnduranceTeaching is rewarding, but it can also be exhausting—especially when students don’t immediately see the value in what they’re learning.Today's prayer written by Tara L. Cole, we explore the importance of relying on God’s strength in the classroom and beyond. Drawing parallels to Moses’ reluctance and eventual trust in God’s calling, we’re reminded that He equips those He calls with both presence and tools. God’s strength is the foundation for endurance, patience, and joy.Reference: Colossians 1: 11 Prayer: Lord, grant teachers the strength and endurance they need to do their best as they teach our children.

Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMomsA Prayer to Encourage TeachersMany times, the loudest voices are the most negative ones. Have you ever thought about how you can encourage teachers? In this episode, Nicolet Bell draws from Ephesians 4:29 and challenges us to filter our communication through two questions: Is this helpful for building this person up? Does it benefit them? Let's be moms who send the encouraging text or email. Let's speak life into our teachers this year.Reference: Ephesians 4:29 Prayer: Father, help our family to surround our teachers with encouragement.

Money can stir a host of emotions—gratitude, stress, hope, and guilt. In our daily prayer and devotional, Christine F. Perry shares a personal story of navigating unexpected expenses and the conviction she felt when she paid bills before giving her tithe. Her honesty invites us to reflect on our financial habits and where our hearts truly lie when it comes to money. Scripture is clear that our resources belong to God, and He calls us to steward them with wisdom and faithfulness. Tithing is more than a rule—it’s a spiritual act of surrender and trust. When we give God our “first fruits,” we acknowledge His provision and sovereignty over all areas of our lives. Today's Verses for Meditation: Psalm 24:1 (NKJV) – “The earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness, The world and those who dwell therein.”Deuteronomy 8:18 (NKJV) – “And you shall remember the LORD your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth…”
Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMomsA Prayer For Teachers to Speak LifeWords have power to give life. In this episode from Tara L. Cole, we explore the power of life-giving words and how they can shape a child’s heart, even in moments of correction. Drawing parallels to how Jesus called Peter “the rock” before he became one, the message reminds us that encouragement sees potential beyond the present. Teachers, parents, and leaders are urged to look past shortcomings and instead call out the best in those they guide.Reference:1 Thessalonians 5:11 Prayer: Lord, fill all our teachers with life -giving words and build them up so they can pour into our children.

Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMomsA Prayer For Teachers Teaching is one of the most challenging jobs—and recent years have made it even harder. Just as Solomon humbly asked God for wisdom to lead Israel, our children’s teachers also need God’s guidance to lead, teach, and care for their students well.In this episode by Tara L. Cole we explore how we can pray intentionally for teachers, advocate for them, and partner with them in helping our children flourish—whether they’re in a classroom, learning online, or being homeschooled.Reference: 1 Kings 3: 8-9 Prayer: Lord, Give all teachers the wisdom and insight this school year and prosper their efforts in Jesus name.

Life is full of beautiful moments, but we often rush through them without noticing the fingerprints of God. In today's prayer and devotional, Chelsey DeMatteis shares a personal story of how God revealed His presence during a time of uncertainty and nervous anticipation. As she stepped into a new experience—traveling without her child for the first time—Chelsey asked the Lord to show Himself in the everyday details. He answered through both visible signs and heartfelt encouragement. This devotional is a reminder that God wants to be seen and sought in our ordinary, daily moments. He delights when we boldly ask for His presence and pay attention to the ways He reveals His love and faithfulness. Whether through peace, kindness, or something as unexpected as a traced heart or late-night prayer, the Lord is near and active in our lives. Today's Verse:
Today’s Bible Verse – John 5:7 “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me. - John 5:7 In John 5:7, we hear the voice of a man who has been stuck—physically and emotionally—for 38 years. His words reflect a deep sense of helplessness and isolation, but they also open the door for one of Jesus’ most powerful miracles. This verse is a reminder that even when we feel unseen, unsupported, or left behind, Jesus sees us. He meets us in our waiting, our longing, and our weariness—and invites us to healing that goes beyond what we imagine.
Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMoms A Prayer to Notice the Unnoticed Jesus shows us the beauty of valuing the least, the last, and the overlooked.In today's episode, Nicolet Bell will help us explore how His actions teach us to extend friendship beyond our comfort zones—inviting the lonely, the outcast, and those who are different into our circles. Plus, we’ll pray for our children to grow up seeking friendships that reflect Jesus’s love and intentionality.Reference: John 2:9-11 Prayer: Father, help our children to value friendships with those who are lonely or outcast. Help them to notice the ones unnoticed and to invite them into the circle. Allow us to model this type of friendship for them. Guard our hearts from only seeking relationships that benefit us, and help us to see people around us the way that you see them. Amen. LINKS:Everyday Prayers for the School Year FREE download.

Parenting teens can be one of the most rewarding and challenging seasons in life. In this heartfelt prayer and devotional, Maggie Meadows Cooper shares from her own journey of raising teenagers about the importance of creating a home environment that mirrors God’s refuge—a safe place where our kids can turn in moments of fear, stress, or uncertainty. Drawing from Psalm 62:8 and other scriptures that describe God as our ultimate refuge, Maggie outlines practical ways to foster trust and open communication with our teens: modeling faith, setting clear boundaries, extending unconditional love, allowing natural consequences, and guarding our words. She reminds us that just as we run to the Lord for shelter, we want our teens to run to us—but this requires intentionality and grace. And ultimately, even when we can’t be everything for our kids, we can trust the One who knows and loves them perfectly. Today's Bible Verse is Psalm 62:8 – “Trust in Him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts before Him. God is our refuge.”
Today’s Bible Verse – Mark 4:8 "An other seed fell on good soil and produced grain. Growing up and increasing, yielding some thirty fold, sixty fold , and a hundred fold." - Mark 4:8 This powerful verse from the Parable of the Sower reminds us that when our hearts are open and receptive to God’s Word, spiritual growth and fruitfulness follow. In Mark 4:8, Jesus highlights the potential impact of a life deeply rooted in His truth—one that multiplies blessing, faith, and purpose far beyond what we imagine. The key? Good soil. A heart that’s surrendered, nourished by Scripture, and ready to receive what God wants to grow.
Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMoms A Prayer to See Friendship as CirclesHow can we encourage our kids to form healthy friendships? Well, we use Jesus’ own friendships as a model. In this episode by Tara L. Cole, we reflect on how not every relationship needs to be a close one, and that’s okay.Reference: Matthew 17: 1-2 Prayer: Father, please help us to find close friends who draw our children to you. Help them to be these kinds of friends for others. In Jesus' name, amen. LINKS:Everyday Prayers for the School Year FREE download.

True peace in our homes begins with the choice of whom we serve and what we believe. As Christine F. Perry reflects in today's prayer, our beliefs shape our behavior—whether that’s striving to earn love, chasing wealth, or living for earthly rewards. When we choose our own way over God’s, chaos, fear, and anxiety often follow. But when we surrender authority and headship to the Lord, we invite His peace to reign in our hearts and our homes. Drawing from Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis, Christine reminds us that God designed us to “run on Himself” — there is no true happiness or peace apart from Him. Today, we are called to make the intentional choice to serve the Lord, letting His presence shape our relationships, attitudes, and daily life. Today's Bible Verse:
Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMoms A Prayer to Wait with ExpectationReference: Psalm 37:7 How do we wait silently and expectantly for God to move—especially when circumstances feel devastating. Inspired by Psalm 37:7, the episode dives into the raw moments of life when all we can do is wait, and trust that God is still at work. It serves as a reminder that God uses all things—even heartbreak—for our good. Prayer Father, I know it takes time to build trust.

Midnight hours often bring reflection, anxiety, or loneliness—especially when the world grows quiet. In today's prayer, Peyton Garland beautifully captures this sacred stillness, recounting her own moments of solitude as a mother and wife to a traveling pilot. From a Tennessee farm filled with unexpected late-night birdsong, she draws two powerful truths: We are never alone, even in darkness. We were not made to be alone, and healthy, godly relationships are vital. This devotion is a gentle reminder that even in the stillness, God sings over us and gives us a song to sing in return. Today's Prayer Leans on This Bible Verse:
Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMoms A Prayer for Godly CounselReference: Proverbs 27:9They say that it takes a village to raise a child, but have you ever put much thought into that village? In today's episode of Everyday Prayers, we are reminded of the powerful example of Moses in Exodus 18 and how even great leaders need wise counsel and support. Likewise, our children benefit greatly from friendships and mentorships outside of mom and dad—godly men and women who can guide them when we can't. Prayer Lord, bring our children friends who give godly counsel. In Jesus name, amen. LINKS:Everyday Prayers for the School Year FREE download.

Our words have power—to either build up or break down. In today's prayer, Vivian Bricker reflects on how the wisdom passed down from her mother shaped her own understanding of the importance of speech, and how Scripture calls us to use our tongues as trees of life. Whether we’ve been wounded by words or regret the ones we’ve spoken, there is hope and healing through Christ. By surrendering our speech to Him, we allow God to shape our words into sources of encouragement, compassion, and truth. Today's Prayer Leans on This Bible Verse:

It’s easy to lean on Jesus when life is hard, but what about when things get easier? Here’s why keeping your eyes fixed on Christ in every season matters more than you might think. Keri Eichberger’s daily prayer and devotional remind us that both hardship and ease offer moments to grow closer to Jesus. While trials often deepen our dependence on Him, seasons of calm can tempt us to rely on ourselves. This devotional challenges us to guard our spiritual gaze—keeping it fixed on Christ, the true source of light, joy, and fulfillment. Today's Prayer Leans on This Bible Verse:
The next generation is watching...are we reflecting Christ in what we do and say? Here’s how to leave a legacy of faith they’ll never forget. In this prayer and devotional, we are invited to consider how our lives serve as a living testimony for the next generation. The psalmist's charge is clear: don’t just talk about God’s wonders—live them. Keneesha Saunders-Liddie urges us to be consistent in our walk with Christ, modeling integrity, joy, and perseverance so that younger believers can see Jesus reflected in our everyday lives. Today's Bible Verse: Psalm 78:4 – “We will not hide them from their children, but rather tell the coming generation to come the praises of the Lord, and His strength and His wonderful works that He has done.”

Today’s Bible Verse – 1 Thessalonians 2:8 (NIV) “Because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well” Ministry isn’t just about preaching—it’s about living life together. In 1 Thessalonians 2:8, Paul models relational ministry rooted in love, authenticity, and connection. This verse reminds us that sharing the gospel means more than words; it’s about investing in people, building community, and reflecting Christ in both message and lifestyle.
Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMoms A Prayer to Let God Clean You from the Inside Out Reference: Ephesians 6:12-13 How does spiritual warfare intersects with the everyday struggles of parenting? Today's prayer offers encouragement for moms who feel overwhelmed by anger, frustration, or emotional triggers. Instead of accepting defeat or justifying our reactions, we’re reminded that our true battle isn’t with our children—or even ourselves—but with spiritual forces that seek to steal our peace. Through Christ, we are already victorious, and we’re invited to parent from that place of strength, clothed in the full armor of God. Prayer Jesus, thank you that we don’t need to struggle against flesh and blood. Our children and our own selves are not the enemy. Help us to put on the full armor of God today, so that when we’re tempted to live in defeat, we can be reminded that we are cleaned by the blood of the Lamb. We are also clothed in God’s own armor and can stand our ground, knowing that You have already won this battle on our behalf. Change us to be more like you, help us grow, and help us remain in the hope that You are transforming us.

Sunshine reveals God's character. In today's prayer and devotional, Chelsey DeMatteis reflects on the simple but powerful gift of warm, sunny days—and how they echo God's grace and goodness. Through her personal experiences and biblical truths, she encourages us to slow down and recognize the presence of God in everyday beauty. Sunny days aren’t just weather patterns; they are soul-deep reminders of God’s faithfulness, mercy, and the light of Christ. Scripture Observation and Application: Sunshine reveals God's character – warmth, joy, mercy, and light. Creation declares God’s glory (Psalm 19:1), and each sunrise and sunset can prompt heartfelt gratitude. Children’s simple thankfulness—like Chelsey’s son—can guide us toward deeper worship. Scripture reminds us: God is the ultimate source of light, both in nature and in our lives. Scripture to Meditate On: Psalm 19:1 – The heavens proclaim God's glory John 8:12 – Jesus is the light of the world John 1:5 – Light overcomes darkness Psalm 119:105 – God’s word lights our path 1 Peter 2:9 – Called out of darkness into marvelous light 2 Corinthians 4:6 – God shines light into our hearts
Today’s Bible Verse – Proverbs 3: 5-6) (NIV) “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” Feeling uncertain about your next step? Proverbs 3:5–6 reminds us to let go of control and trust God completely. When we surrender our plans and lean on His wisdom—not our own—He promises to direct our paths with clarity, purpose, and peace. This verse is a timeless reminder to seek God first in every decision.
Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMoms A Prayer for Your Children to Know You'll Never Stop Loving ThemReference: Romans 2:4 How can we better parent strong-willed children? Only with the powerful role of God’s kindness in leading us—and our children—to repentance. Today's episode reminds us that prioritizing relationship over behavior correction and learning to love our children harder than they fight us. Grounded in Romans 2:4, this episode offers encouragement and perspective for parents feeling overwhelmed and unsure of how to guide their children well. Prayer Father, thank you for your great kindness. Thank you, Lord, for bringing us to repentance because of it. I pray today, Lord, that you would help us to show that same kindness to our children, help us to fight for them, Lord, and may they know that there is nothing they could ever do that would make us not love them.

Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMoms A Prayer to Trust What We Can't SeeReference: Ephesians 5:2 This powerful reminder invites moms to step back from the urge to control and speak hastily, and instead to rest in God’s sovereignty. When we acknowledge God's position and wisdom, it helps shape our worship, words, and prayers. Be encouraged to surrender control, model humility for their children, and find peace in God's complete knowledge—even when life feels uncertain or chaotic. Prayer Lord, it's so easy for me to forget how little control I have and how limited my knowledge is. I get busy working out details and arranging schedules and somehow I can begin to think I'm actually in charge. Forgive me for all the little ways I tried to sit on your throne. Would you gently remind me of who you are and who I am? And as you move in me and in my family, Father, I'll be careful to give you all the glory. In Jesus' name, amen.

In today's prayer and devotional, Jaime Hampton, host of Praying Christian Women, guides listeners into the freeing practice of confession and repentance. Using Psalm 32, she illustrates the emotional and spiritual toll of unconfessed sin and the relief that comes when we bring our transgressions into the light. Jaime encourages regular confession, both to God and in a trusted Christian community, as a powerful path to healing and renewed purpose. Today's Bible Verse: Psalm 32:3–5 (NIV) – “When I kept silent, my bones wasted away... Then I acknowledged my sin… and you forgave the guilt of my sin.”
Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMoms A Prayer for Church HurtReference: Psalm 94:19 Can we truly find joy and comfort in God's promises even in moments of suffering, even suffering caused by another believer? Today's prayer is a reminder that we can cling to God's truth in the face of oppression and remember that while Satan seeks to divide the church, God's Word is our anchor. Through scripture and prayer, we are encouraged to resist the temptation to withdraw from God and instead seek comfort, healing, and strength in His Word. Prayer Father, I so easily become anxious and look for ways that I can control what's going on around me. Yet all I need to do is simply lift my eyes to you and offer you my anxiety. Thank you for the reminder in Psalm 46 -10 to be still and know that you are God. For your word is the only place that I find comfort and refreshment. Your consolation brings me joy in the midst of difficult circumstances. In Jesus' name, amen.

Today’s Bible Verse – Isaiah 43:19 (NIV) “See, I am doing a new thing!Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?I am making a way in the wildernessand streams in the wasteland.” God specializes in the unexpected. In Isaiah 43:19, we’re reminded that He’s not only present in the wilderness—but He’s making a way through it.

Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMoms_ A Prayer for Making the Hidden Things KnownReference: Ephesians 6:11 Can we truly prepare our kids for the real world? Many of us may be asking these questions, "Have we done enough? Did we teach him everything he needs to know?"Using Ephesians 6:11 as our guide, we can trust God with what they haven’t been able to do—and instead, stand firm in prayer. Even when we’ve done all we can, the power of consistent, bold, and faith-filled prayer is never limited. God invites us to partner with Him in fighting for our children’s hearts and futures. Prayer Father, show me what I need to see. Reveal the deep and hidden things in my children's life that may be keeping them from all you have for them.

Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMoms_ A Prayer to Live from Your True Identity Reference: 2 Corinthians 5:7 What does it means to be a new creation in Christ? It is important to remember that our worth is found in who God says we are—not in what we do.Before any role—mom, teacher, friend, or neighbor—you are first and foremost a child of the one true King. Let us remember our spiritual identity and extend the same dignity to others as fellow image-bearers of God. Prayer Father, may my friend look to You for her identity instead of the things of this world. As she looks to you, may she live out of her identity as beloved and forgiven, doing the good works you created her to do, and most of all, that she is a beloved child. Help us all to see our children, our friends, and our enemies as equally loved by you. In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMoms_ A Prayer to Combat ComplainingReference Philippians 2:14 There is power when we choose gratitude instead of grumbling. It is easy to lose focus on God's blessings when negativity creeps in and complaining can be more than a minor annoyance; it can derail our perspective and spiritual growth, just as it did for the Israelites in the desert.But there is hope. Drawing on Philippians 4:6–7, we’re reminded that prayer and thanksgiving are powerful tools to combat a complaining spirit and invite God’s peace into our lives and homes. Prayer Father God, forgive me for complaining and whining. Help me to live a life of thanksgiving and teach my kids to do the same. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
