I'm your China travel guide in exile, Missionary Ben, recording today in downtown Dhaka, the overcrowded capital of Bangladesh. Follow me on Twitter/X (@chinaadventures) where I share a new Chinese city to pray for every single day. Feel free to email anytime: chinacompass @ privacyport.com. Check out PrayGiveGo.us for everything else, incl. Patreon, Substack & books… The Memoirs of William Milne (PrayGiveGo.us) The Autobiography of John G. Paton (JohnGPaton.com) Borden of Yale: The Millionaire Missionary (BordenofYale.com) Unbeaten: Arrested, Interrogated, and Deported from China (Unbeaten.vip) Why the Prison Pulpit? The goal is to remind people to pray for persecuted believers as Hebrews 13:3 teaches: “Remember those who are in prison, as bound with them.” We’ve looked at Wang Yi and Early Rain Church’s writings in the aftermath of their arrest and attack in 2018, but I’ve also regularly turned to other persecuted ministers who have gone before, such as Richard Wurmbrand, to give us a voice literally from prison. Thoughts on Bangladesh and How to Pray… When I first started learning about Bangladesh in 2002, there were only about 130+ million people. Today that number is closer to 180! Let me help you with an example of just how crowded it is… similar in size to Georgia, Iowa, and Alabama, but with 15 or 25x more people!s **Bangladesh is the most densely populated sovereign nation larger than 1,000 square miles** - It has a population density of roughly 3,538 per sq. mile (1400/km)! - Virtually all higher-density entries are tiny city-states, territories, or micro-nations far below 1,000 square miles, including: Macau (~33 km², ~22,000/km²), Monaco (~2 km², ~19,000/km²), Singapore (~710 km², ~8,225/km²), and Hong Kong (~1,100 km², ~7,000/km²). - Among sovereign countries (or comparable large entities) exceeding the size threshold, no other nation surpasses Bangladesh. Next in line for larger countries include places like Taiwan (~636/km²), the Netherlands (~548/km²), and South Korea (~529/km²). Islam growing faster than anything else Christians converted from Islam are growing, but still a tiny minority (200k) Pray for more laborers, open doors, boldness, and protection from the evil one As always, put yourself “in their shoes” as you pray… How to Give?

In His High Priestly Prayer, Jesus wasn't praying for the whole world but specifically for His disciples, both then and now. So what distinguishes a disciple from the rest of the world?

Like the rising sun and seasonal rains, God always shows up when the moment is right. Waiting on Him is an active process—pressing on in prayer, trusting His character, and expecting renewal. When God appears, He brings deep healing, restores hope, and nourishes growth, turning barren seasons into fertile ones for spiritual flourishing. Highlights God’s Faithfulness: He appears as surely as the sun rises, showing reliability in every season. Winter Rains: Symbolize deep healing, addressing spiritual dryness and preparing us for what’s next. Spring Rains: Represent gentle renewal, refreshing our hearts and fostering growth. Persistent Prayer: Pressing on in prayer strengthens trust and acknowledgment of God’s work. Hope in Waiting: Seasons of waiting are not empty; they are opportunities to reflect on God’s past faithfulness. Intersecting Faith & Life Waiting can feel dry and discouraging, but remembering God’s consistent presence brings perspective. Just as the sun rises daily and rain nourishes the earth, God’s timing is perfect. Trusting Him in the waiting season allows for spiritual growth, renewed hope, and readiness for His arrival. Actively acknowledging God during this time strengthens faith and deepens reliance on His promises. This episode is sponsored by Trinity Debt Management.

As surely as the sun rises, he will appear; he will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth.” – Hosea 6:3, NIV After it rains, I try to go outside to take a quick walk whenever possible. I love smelling the fresh air that’s just been washed clean by the rain, and seeing how the ground around me comes to life as the rain soaks into it. Since I also love the peaceful sound of rain and how it feels when raindrops fall, I sometimes try to walk outside while it's still raining. While I’m walking, I often pray because the rain that refreshes everything around me physically inspires me to seek a fresh perspective spiritually by talking with God. I always feel renewed after walking. The answers to my prayers usually have to wait for God’s timing – and sometimes that takes much longer than I expected. But God is faithful! God always shows up with the answers when the timing is right. In the meantime, I keep seeking him. If you’re waiting for God to answer your prayers for something you need, but it’s taken much longer than you expected to see God’s answers arrive, you may feel like God has forgotten you. You might start to wonder if prayer works and if God will actually show up for you. This verse from the prophet Hosea encourages you that God will show up for you as reliably as the sun rises and the rain waters the earth. You can count on God appearing whenever the time is right to meet your needs. Just like the sun always rises in the morning, and the rain always falls to water the earth, God will always show up for you. Hosea 6:3 urges you to “press on to acknowledge” God. You can do so by continuing to seek God, to trust God’s character, and to move forward in faith, expecting God to show up when the right time comes. Praying persistently and waiting with hope will both help you press on to acknowledge God. When God does appear, this verse says: “He will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth.” Winter rains wash away debris and soak into the ground, creating a deep reserve of water. When God shows up, he addresses the deep issues in your life, healing you from anything that’s making you spiritually dry and giving you the strength you need for what’s next. Spring rains are gentle rains that often occur during that season to nourish plants and help them grow well. When God appears, he brings you renewal and revival. Areas in your life that had been barren before will bloom because of the new life God gives you. God shows up to renew your strength and restore your hope. So, if you’re currently in a season of waiting for God to answer your prayers about something, remember God’s past faithfulness. God has shown up for you before, and he will show up again – just like the sun will rise tomorrow morning, and rain will fall from the sky again soon. You aren’t waiting for a God who might be too busy or too far away to help you. You’re waiting for a God who promises to appear at the right time. So, press on to pray for what you need, and to believe that God will answer your prayers. You can always trust that God will show up for you! Intersecting Faith & Life: As you consider how you can trust that God will show up for you, reflect on these questions: What is the current dry season you’re experiencing that’s making you doubt God’s faithfulness? Hosea 6:3 says God will appear “as surely as the sun rises.” How can you plan to get up early enough to watch a sunset this week and meditate on this verse while you watch it? In what ways do you need God to come to you like the winter rains, with deep healing that helps you prepare for what’s next? In what ways do you need God to come to you like the spring rains, with renewal that helps you grow? What’s one step you can take today to “press on to acknowledge him” while you wait for God’s timing?

Scripture: Acts 4:23-31
Read OnlineJesus addressed this parable to those who were convinced of their own righteousness and despised everyone else. “Two people went up to the temple area to pray; one was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector…” Luke 18:9–10Humility is a beautiful virtue. Even the most public sinner, like a tax collector, shines brightly with God's grace when his heart is purified by humility. On the other hand, pride is an ugly vice. When pride is present in someone's life, the soul is incapable of reflecting God's pure and beautiful light.Today's parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector, who both go to the temple to pray, teaches us that true holiness comes from within. The interior virtues of the soul allow God's radiance to shine outwardly. When humility and repentance fill a person's heart, the soul reflects God's grace.We may all encounter people who seem to radiate God's grace, peace, and joy. Conversely, we may meet others who radiate judgment, self-righteousness, and condemnation. While we must avoid judging others, we cannot help but be inspired by the genuine humility of those whose lives are marked by grace. For example, even if we forget the exact words of Saint Mother Teresa's many speeches, her radiant charity, fueled by humility, is unforgettable.The Pharisees were known for their meticulous observance of the external requirements of the Law of Moses. However, their scrupulous adherence to these laws often blinded them to the deeper virtues that God desires. They became focused on appearances, missing the heart of the matter: humility and love of God.Praying in the temple is a good and pious act. Both the Pharisee and the tax collector did this. However, prayer that is distorted by self-righteousness, pride, and arrogance cannot rise to God as true prayer. Only when prayer is guided by humility and an awareness of our need for God's mercy does it become a channel of grace.The tax collector was humble because he recognized his sinfulness and his need for God's mercy. He prayed, “O God, be merciful to me, a sinner.” The Pharisee, blinded by pride, could not see his own need for God's forgiveness and instead praised himself for his external observances. The tax collector's humility opened him to divine wisdom, while the Pharisee's pride left him in spiritual blindness. Humility is wise; pride is foolish.Reflect today on how you approach prayer. Are you wise in your prayer? Do you, like the tax collector, acknowledge your need for God's mercy? Pray the tax collector's prayer with sincerity and depth: “O God, be merciful to me, a sinner.” If you find yourself thinking, “I'm not that bad of a sinner,” then your prayer is more like that of the Pharisee. Don't shy away from the truth. Humbly confess your weaknesses and sins before God. He is merciful. Acknowledge your complete dependence on His grace. Only then, like the tax collector, will you go home justified before God.Most merciful God, have mercy on me, a sinner. I need You. I need Your forgiveness. By Your grace, help me to see my sins clearly, confess them, and experience the joy of redemption. Fill me with humility, dear Lord, so that I may know the truth of myself and, through Your wisdom, be set free. Jesus, I trust in You.Source: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

Gethsemane shows us what prayer looks like in agony: intimate relationship (“Abba”), honest pleading, spiritual dependence, and firm resolve to obey God's will. When others are weak, God is not. This episode calls us to stop hiding behind religious polish and instead bring our distress to the Father—because resurrection life comes on the far side of faithful endurance.

Jesus meets a woman at a well; this event gets right to the point. Our lives are much more than what we see physically, and the real existential threat is not to our earthly lives, but to our eternal souls. So critical is this truth that Jesus brings up what the woman would not say. "Go, call your husband, and come here." What unfolded next led the woman to the spiritual. "The woman *said to Him, "Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet." Verse 19 of John 4. The point of this conversation:"Jesus *said to her, "Woman, believe Me, an hour is coming when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall you worship the Father. 22 "You worship that which you do not know; we worship that which we know, for salvation is from the Jews. 23 "But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers. 24 "God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." John 4:17-20Our So What?Praying for the physical is part of the call we have, but as we mature in our communion with Almighty God, our concerns will shift from the physical to the spiritual."What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."

Are written prayers biblical or just empty tradition? If you've ever felt like praying someone else's words isn't "sincere" or questioned whether liturgical prayers belong in the Christian life, this episode will challenge your assumptions and open up a rich tradition of faith. Did Jesus forbid scripted prayers in Matthew 6:6–7? Many Christians assume prayer must always be spontaneous. But throughout both Jewish and early Christian worship, written prayers were a normal part of community life.In this episode, we look at the history of liturgical prayer and why Acts 2:42 says the early believers devoted themselves to “the prayers.” We'll also talk about how written prayers can strengthen—not replace—your personal conversations with God. We will also explore the beauty and biblical foundation of liturgical prayers, from the Psalms (which are themselves written prayers) to the Book of Common Prayer and prayers written by early church fathers like Polycarp. Many American evangelicals dismiss written prayers as "ritualistic" or empty tradition, but Scripture shows us that God gave us the Psalms to pray, Jesus gave us the Lord's Prayer to pray, and faithful Christians throughout history have used written prayers to train themselves in adoration, confession, and thanksgiving—not just requests. I also share a few favorite historic prayer resources and simple ways to turn Scripture into your own prayers.Shop Prayer Resources⦿ Every Woman a Theologian Shop: https://phyliciamasonheimer.com/shop Our Spring Shop is live and filled with new prayer-focused resources including the Praying the Psalms Scripture Guide and Not-So-Quiet Time: Psalms Volume 1, a multisensory guide that you can use alone or as a family discipleship tool.Watch the full Verity Podcast Prayer Series: https://www.youtube.com/@veritypodcastSubscribe to Verity Podcast: https://apple.co/veritypodcastVerity Podcast is an Every Woman a Theologian company.

Because God is not the author of confusion — and peace often begins with clearing what no longer belongs. Today in Day 4 - Today we restore flow by simply putting misplaced items back where they belong. New to the series? Start with Day 1: God Is Not the Author of Confusion — Start Clearing the Clutter Today and move through the week with us.

Praying over your next steps!
We share stories from India that turn into a lesson on honor, legacy, and why we are never the first ones in the field. We open Matthew 9 and 10 to show how Jesus responds to desperate faith, why prayer keeps our motives clean, and why every Christ follower is sent to pray for the nations. • Honor as a two-way exchange that blesses the giver • The mango grove lesson about harvesting what others planted • Refusing to take credit for fruit you only picked • Prayer as a spiritual transaction with the Creator • Jairus kneeling in desperation and bold faith • The woman with the issue of blood and faith over labels • Noticing divine interruptions instead of rushing past them • Jesus rejecting spectacle and choosing sacrifice • The danger of doing right deeds for wrong reasons • Matthew 10 and being sent with prayerful dependence • Praying for persecuted pastors and the global church • Passion defined as patient endurance

A lack of praying can get you in trouble.
Watching your child struggle—whether with friendships, health, or their faith—is a journey no parent is ever prepared for. In today's episode, our storyteller reminds us what it looks like to keep praying, even when God feels silent. Leslie Hedge, who shared her story with our community group in Fairhope, Alabama, watched her son struggle socially through his adolescent years. Her heart broke when he eventually walked away from his faith and declared himself an atheist. That heartbreak turned into fear and panic when an unexpected health crisis suddenly put his life at risk.

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today!How do you cope when the deepest wounds come not from a sworn enemy, but from a trusted and familiar friend? Where do you turn when the sheer panic and pain of personal betrayal make you just want to grow wings like a dove and fly far, far away from it all? In this devotional on Psalm 55, we walk through David’s desperate prayer of anguish—a Maskil written in the agonizing wake of being stabbed in the back by a close confidant, his top advisor Ahithophel. We shift our focus from the paralyzing sting of emotional trauma to the beautiful, messy progression of biblical lament, recognizing how David moves from panic and a desire to escape, straight into petition and renewed trust. We explore what it means to cast our crushing burdens upon the eternal God, uncovering the profound realization that while human friends might miss our texts or calls, the Lord hears our complaints evening, morning, and noon. We move past the instinct to simply run from our pain to the deeper truth: that God gives us full permission to process our darkest grief, anxiety, and frustration directly at His feet. Join host Jaime on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a session of spiritual recalibration and honest lament. If you are navigating the heartbreak of broken trust, feeling overwhelmed by division within your community, or simply need a gentle reminder to take your problems to God before anyone else, this episode offers a powerful shift in perspective.Come ready to lay down your heaviest anxieties, pray for unity within the body of Christ, and declare the unshakeable, sustaining power of the Lord over your life.

Greetings, friends.Discouragement grows when we focus on it. By shifting our focus away from fear and frustration, we break its power. Push back discouragement with faith: God can place a powerful song in your heart through the Holy Spirit. When you face temptation, doubt, depression, or spiritual heaviness, talk intentionally with God. This steadies you and gives you your next step.Psalm 95:1 calls us to praise and connects spiritual practice to real-life challenges believers face.Praising God out loud reorients the mind. Ask God for a personal “new song” in difficult times. A truth sang and repeated day and night, reminding you to trust God even before you see the result.Expect a dramatic victory from God.2 Chronicles 20 shows King Jehoshaphat's crisis: fear meets prayer, a promise, and worship as a weapon. The power of praise drives back heaviness and brings God's peace and victory. If this encouraged you, please subscribe to the channel, share this message with a friend who needs strength, and leave a review below mentioning what “song” you are holding onto right now. Your feedback helps us reach and support more people.Praying for you. Victory!Tony WilliamsSend Tony a Texthttps://www.seldicompany.com/

Heartbreak, a breakup, a long waiting season, and a lot of trusting God. I'm sitting down with my best friend Alyssa to interview her about her unexpected love story. I've know Alyssa from all the way back to my LA days. Alyssa shares her incredible love story with her fiancé, Regan. What makes their story so powerful is that it wasn't a straight path. Alyssa and Reagan met at church and dated for several months before realizing the relationship wasn't healthy at the time. Even though they loved each other, they chose to walk away. During the year they were apart, Alyssa focused on seeking the Lord through prayer, fasting, journaling, and community—even when it was painful. Eventually, God redeems it. Listen for the full story! This episode is a reminder that God's timing is different from ours, but when we surrender our relationships to Him, He can redeem and restore in ways we never expected.
