Melbourne • Wellington • Singapore • Houston • Lima HOPE • JOY • PEACE Welcome to DailyPrayer.uk. I'm Reverend Ben Cooper. Thank you for joining me in the middle of your day. Whatever this day has brought so far, let's pause together, open God's Word and remember that our greatest hope has never been found in changing circumstances but in the unchanging character of God. There are moments when the news we hear, the situations we face or the uncertainty around us can make tomorrow seem difficult to imagine. Yet the Lord is never limited by what limits us. He delights in filling tired hearts with fresh hope, replacing discouragement with quiet confidence and reminding us that His purposes remain good even when we cannot yet see the whole picture. Romans 15:13 (NIV) “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” What a wonderful blessing for today. Hope is not something we manufacture for ourselves; it is something God lovingly pours into our hearts as we place our trust in Him. His joy strengthens us, His peace steadies us and His Spirit enables hope to overflow into every part of our lives. As that hope grows within us, it naturally becomes a blessing to the people around us. So today, let's gently remind ourselves that fear will not win, because Jesus Christ is the source of our living hope, and through the Holy Spirit He fills our hearts with lasting joy and peace. Father, thank You for being the God of hope. Thank You that Your promises remain true and Your love remains constant through every season of life. Lord Jesus, bless every listener today. Bring healing to those who are unwell, renewed hope to those who feel discouraged, joy to those whose hearts have grown weary and deep peace to everyone placing their trust in You today. Holy Spirit, fill us afresh with Your hope, strengthen our faith and help us become people who naturally share Your encouragement wherever we go. Across the world, from Melbourne to Wellington, from Singapore to Houston and Lima, may every listener continue this day overflowing with the hope, joy and peace that come through trusting in Jesus Christ.

I myself am satisfied about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge and able to instruct one another. 15 But on some points I have written to you very boldly by way of reminder, because of the grace given me by God 16 to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles in the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the offering of the Gentiles may be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit. 17 In Christ Jesus, then, I have reason to be proud of my work for God. 18 For I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me to bring the Gentiles to obedience—by word and deed, 19 by the power of signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God—so that from Jerusalem and all the way around to Illyricum I have fulfilled the ministry of the gospel of Christ; 20 and thus I make it my ambition to preach the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, lest I build on someone else's foundation, 21 but as it is written,“Those who have never been told of him will see, and those who have never heard will understand.”22 This is the reason why I have so often been hindered from coming to you. 23 But now, since I no longer have any room for work in these regions, and since I have longed for many years to come to you, 24 I hope to see you in passing as I go to Spain, and to be helped on my journey there by you, once I have enjoyed your company for a while. 25 At present, however, I am going to Jerusalem bringing aid to the saints. 26 For Macedonia and Achaia have been pleased to make some contribution for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem. 27 For they were pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have come to share in their spiritual blessings, they ought also to be of service to them in material blessings. 28 When therefore I have completed this and have delivered to them what has been collected, I will leave for Spain by way of you. 29 I know that when I come to you I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.30 I appeal to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers to God on my behalf, 31 that I may be delivered from the unbelievers in Judea, and that my service for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints, 32 so that by God's will I may come to you with joy and be refreshed in your company. 33 May the God of peace be with you all. Amen.1. The sermon opens with Viktor Frankl scribbling notes in a concentration camp — already living in a story that hadn't happened yet, for people he didn't know. When you're honest with yourself, what size is the story you're living in day to day?2. Frederick Douglass could have disappeared into a safe, quiet life after escaping slavery. Instead he gave up his anonymity for a story bigger than himself. Is there something you've already been given — a platform, a skill, an experience, access — that belongs to a bigger story than you've been using it for?3. "A story the size of your own comfort doesn't need a very big God." Does that land for you? Are there areas of your life where you suspect you're not experiencing much of God because you're not in any situation that you think requires him?4. Or- Is there something in your life right now that you need others to actually be striving in prayer with you over? Have you told anyone?5. What's your Spain? The godly ambition you keep circling but haven't let yourself pursue. What comes to mind — and what's kept you from taking a step toward it?

Melbourne • Wellington • Singapore • Houston • Lima HOPE • JOY • PEACE Welcome to DailyPrayer.uk. I'm Reverend Ben Cooper. Thank you for taking these few moments to pause in the middle of your day. Let's open God's Word together and receive fresh encouragement for whatever lies before us. There are seasons when hope feels distant. The heart can become tired, disappointment can quietly settle in and tomorrow may seem no brighter than yesterday. Yet our God is not the author of fading hope. He delights in breathing fresh expectation into weary hearts, reminding us that His promises remain alive and His future is still full of purpose. Romans 15:13 (NIV) “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” What a beautiful promise to receive today. God's desire is not simply that we survive difficult seasons but that our hearts become so filled with His joy and peace that hope begins to overflow into every part of our lives. Even in uncertain times, the Holy Spirit continues His quiet work of renewing our vision, strengthening our faith and lifting our eyes towards the goodness of God. So today, let's gently remind ourselves that fear will not win, because Jesus Christ fills our hearts with a living hope that reaches beyond today's circumstances. Father, thank You for being the God of hope. Thank You that Your promises never fade, Your faithfulness never weakens and Your love continues to breathe new life into every willing heart. Lord Jesus, bless every listener today. Bring healing to those who are unwell, joy to those who feel discouraged, peace to anxious minds and renewed hope to everyone who has begun to lose heart. Fill us afresh with confidence in Your goodness and help us become people who carry hope into the lives of others. Holy Spirit, renew our hearts, awaken fresh expectation within us and let Your hope overflow into every conversation and every opportunity You place before us today. Across the world, from Melbourne to Wellington, from Singapore to Houston and Lima, may every listener be filled with the hope that only God can give and carry that hope into the world around them.

Brisbane • Auckland • Singapore • Atlanta • Guadalajara HOPE • JOY • PEACE Good morning, and welcome to DailyPrayer.uk. I'm Reverend Ben Cooper. Come in for five minutes, let's open God's Word together, and let's pray. As the day gathers pace, it's easy for hope to become overshadowed by deadlines, responsibilities and unexpected interruptions. Yet the Lord never intended His people to live from empty reserves. He invites us to draw continually from His presence, where hope is renewed, peace settles our hearts and joy quietly returns. If today feels uncertain, pause with me and let God speak strength into your spirit. Romans 15:13 (NIV) “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” What a beautiful reminder. Our hope is not built upon changing circumstances or favourable outcomes. Our hope is rooted in the unchanging character of God. As we continue through this day, let's remember together that fear will not win, because the God of hope is walking with us, the Lord Jesus is holding us securely and the Holy Spirit is filling our hearts with lasting peace. Father, thank You that You are the God of hope. Thank You that when our strength feels small, Your faithfulness remains great, and when our confidence begins to falter, Your promises remain sure.

“I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.” (Romans 15:13 NLT) Hope is a precious commodity in today’s world. Our 24-hour news cycle feeds us story after story of events and tragedies that are far beyond our control. Many people spend hours online “doomscrolling,” obsessively searching for content that reinforces their negativity or triggers their anxiety. As a nation, we’ve certainly faced our share of dark times before. For many, there was little hope to be found during the years of the Civil War or in the struggle for civil rights. But our current culture feels different. The algorithms that drive social media seem to reinforce a sense of hopelessness. And the occasional piece of content that momentarily offers hope often turns out to be AI-generated. So when people encounter genuine hope, the results are often profound. That’s why the apostle Paul wrote, “I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit” (Romans 15:13 NLT). Believers understand that with God, there is no such thing as hopelessness. Andrew Jackson understood that. In a letter to his wife he wrote, “I trust that the god of Isaac and of Jacob will protect you, and give you health in my absence, in him alone we ought to trust, he alone can preserve, and guide us through this troublesome world, and I am sure he will hear your prayers. We are told that the prayers of the righteous prevaileth much, and I add mine for your health and preservation untill we again meet.” The overflowing hope that Paul spoke of springs from a spiritual passion. That’s why revival is essential to the lifeblood of believers and to the lifeblood of our nation. For believers, revival involves recapturing the first bloom of a love relationship with Jesus Christ. Sometimes when we’ve been walking with the Lord for a while, our spiritual passion begins to fade. Our zeal begins to erode. We lose some of our initial excitement about our relationship with Him. Revival is how we get it back. When we as Christians restore the passion and fervor to our relationship with Christ, good things happen—in and around us. That renewed passion and fervor feeds on itself. Hope fills and then overflows our lives and then splashes all over the people around us. That’s how revival spreads. I was speaking once with Chuck Smith, who is regarded as the father of the last great spiritual awakening in our country—an event known as the Jesus Movement. I asked him, “Chuck, do you think we’ll ever see another Jesus Movement?” His answer was this: “I don’t know, Greg. I don’t know if we’re desperate enough.” It’s time for God’s people to rediscover our passion, our hope, and our desperation. Reflection question: What would renewed spiritual passion, hope, and desperation look like in your life?

There are seasons when the headlines seem heavy, the future feels uncertain and hope can quietly begin to fade.

Even when answers take longer than we expected, even when the road ahead is unclear, the Lord continues to work with faithfulness, wisdom and love. His promises remain secure because He remains faithful. Father, thank You for being the God of hope. Thank You that Your joy is deeper than our circumstances and Your peace is stronger than our fears. Lord Jesus, fill every listener with fresh hope today.

If you are a mature and well-developed Christian, Paul charges you to be humble and patient with those who are weaker. It can be tempting to use your knowledge of Scripture or your insight into counseling or your experiences in the faith in such a way that talk down to those who have not become strong in those areas. As we remain humble in our maturity, we mirror Christ, for lived to serve, pleasing others to the glory of God and not seeking to be served during his earthly ministry. Lastly, Paul begins to wrap up his letter by telling the church in Rome his travel plans for near future. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

Born without arms, Daniel Ritchie, Vice President of the Southern Baptist Convention, shares that life can be really hard, and circumstances will often disappoint. But Romans 15:13 points us to a God who is not just a giver of hope but the very source of it. Christian hope is not fragile or dependent on outcomes. It is grounded in the unshakeable reality that Jesus reigns and His story ends in victory. Joy is not a feeling tied to circumstances but a choice available to every believer. Peace comes through prayer and intentional practice, not through getting life to cooperate. God is not looking for polished, perfect people to use. He is looking for ordinary people who trust an extraordinary God and let His hope overflow into the world around them.
As we approach the end of the sermon series through the book of Romans, Pastor Jonathan shares a sermon with a more practical message to our calling for Missions. In this talk, Pastor Jonathan walks through the second half of Romans 15, which highlights some of the important elements of missions as exemplified by the apostles. We may think we know what mission entails, but far too often, our views are narrowed by common misconceptions or a lack of understanding of our calling. Today, Pastor Jonathan helps demystify this, encouraging us to recognize that we are all called to missions and challenging us to step into this calling the right way.
Most of us can point to moments in life where we realized that the world doesn't actually revolve around us.Maybe it was becoming a parent. Maybe it was getting married. Maybe it was caring for a friend in a difficult season. Whatever the circumstance, there's something both humbling and freeing about discovering that life is bigger than our own wants, preferences, and plans.This week in Romans 15, Paul brings one of the major themes of his letter to a head.In a culture that constantly tells us to put ourselves first, Paul points us to a different way of living—a life that isn't centered on self, but on loving, serving, encouraging, and building up others. It's the life that Jesus modeled himself. And ironically, as we learned together, some of the greatest freedom in life is found when we stop trying to be the main character.Tune into this week's message called, “Made For Second Place”!Join us this Sunday as we continue our journey through Romans and unpack together how our best life is a life lived for others.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11:15am, & 5pm (C&V Service).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuDownload the Captivate App to Stay Connected! - https://shorturl.at/5PfXPIf you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

A man wrapped up in himself makes a very small package.In Romans 15:1–13, Paul calls Christians to something far bigger than serving self. Christ welcomes us, so we welcome others. Christ unites people who would never naturally gather, so we worship together as one family. Christ gives us a hope that is deeper than optimism—a hope anchored in the promises of God.“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.” — Romans 15:13Support our mission and learn more atwww.alloflife.churchGive to the work of the gospel herewww.alloflife.churchcenter.com/giving

Strong Christians know their freedom in Christ. Weak Christians are careful not to violate their consciences. The tension between them is real, but Paul insists that neither group belongs to itself. Both belong to the Lord who died and rose again for them. Rather than judging or despising one another, Christians are called to bear with each other in love, just as Christ bore with them. As Paul brings this section of Romans to a close, he reveals how the Gospel creates unity among Jews and Gentiles alike and gives a glimpse into his own mission to carry Christ's name where He has not yet been preached. Rev. Jim Daub, pastor of St. Paul Lutheran Church in Havelock, NC, joins guest host DCE Andy Bates to study Romans 15. To learn more about St. Paul Lutheran, visit stpaulhavelock.com. Why does doing the right thing sometimes feel impossible? Why do feelings of guilt follow us even when we've been forgiven? These aren't new questions. St. Paul wrote his letter to the Romans for a church he had never visited, and yet he addressed the struggles every Christian knows firsthand: the weight of the law, the persistence of sin, the sufficiency of what God has done in Christ. Romans covers enormous ground. Paul moves from the universal problem of sin through justification by faith, the role of baptism, the war between flesh and spirit, God's faithfulness to Israel, and the shape of life together in the body of Christ. There's a reason the Reformation was born in this letter. Join us on Thy Strong Word as we open up Romans, weekdays at 11am or on-demand anytime, at KFUO.org. Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light.

Located in the heart of downtown Maryville, Coram Deo Baptist Church (formerly Pleasant Grove at College Street) was founded as a church plant of Pleasant Grove Baptist Church in 2017.
Kent Livingston teaches on Romans 15.
A genuine move of God will manifest itself in a desire to give and a desire for fellowship. Those who are led by their carnal nature will likewise reveal, through their choices and actions, what they value most. Therefore, accountability in ministry is essential. We are encouraged to stay the course, remaining generous with both our time and resources.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on the Daily Radio Bible, a daily Bible‑in‑a‑year podcast with 20‑minute Scripture readings, Christ‑centered devotion, and guided prayer.This daily Bible reading and devotional invites you to live as a citizen of Jesus' kingdom, reconciled, renewed, and deeply loved. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, where we journey together through the pages of Scripture each day. On this June 3rd episode, Hunter guides us through Proverbs 25-27 and Romans 15, reflecting on wisdom, patience, encouragement, and the centrality of Christ in the Christian life. As we read and pray together, we are reminded that the Bible points us not to itself, but to Jesus—the true living Word and source of hope. Join Hunter for insight, encouragement, and a time of prayer as we discover anew how grace takes the pressure off, and how God's love is the motivation for all we do. TODAY'S DEVOTION: The Scriptures teach us and give us hope and encouragement. It's easy for us, as followers of Christ, to misunderstand the role of the Bible in our lives. We can become so enamored with Scripture that we risk turning it into an end in itself, forgetting its primary purpose: to direct our hearts to the living Word, Jesus Christ. The Bible is not the Savior; Jesus is. And as Speaker A points out in Romans 15, "Such things were written in the Scriptures long ago to teach us, and the Scriptures give us hope and encouragement as we wait patiently for God's promises to be fulfilled." What is this hope? What is this encouragement that God is giving? Speaker A references back to Romans 14, where Paul reminds us that the kingdom of God is not about arguments over religious practice or culture—what we eat or drink, or even the observance of days—but about a life marked by goodness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. It's so easy to get lost in our religion and miss the point entirely: we can argue and hurt each other over differences, missing the heart of the gospel. The invitation of the kingdom is greater; it's about being transformed, healed, and empowered to serve and love—even our enemies. This kingdom life is about reflecting Christ to the world—a life of loving one another, of patience, of hope, of encouragement, of finding our identity not in religious observance or perfection, but in the abiding presence of God's Spirit within us. The fruit of this life is not fear, not anxiety, not striving to earn favor, but the freedom that comes from grace and the confidence that comes from being God's beloved. Let the Scriptures remind you and teach you that all of this—patience, hope, encouragement, peace—these are gifts from God. The Bible points us to Christ, the source of our courage and confidence. The kingdom is bigger than anything we imagine—a life richer than anything religious practice alone could provide. The best is yet to be revealed. That's a prayer for Speaker A's soul. It's the prayer for his family, his wife, his daughters, his son. And it's the prayer for you: May God give us, this day, hope and encouragement as we fix our eyes on the One who is the source, the One who invites us to live in the joy and freedom of his kingdom life. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen. Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen. And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.

Paul is pleased with the progress of the church in Rome. He sees in them God's goodness, their knowledge, and their ability to instruct others. In like manner, Yahweh will become for us everything we need to live productive, fruitful lives.

The strong are to limit their liberties in order to show love to those with a weaker conscience. If we want to be like Jesus by bearing the weaknesses of others, we must become familiar with Him. The more we read His Word, the more we understand Him. The more we understand Him, the more we become like Him.
Colleen and Nikki study through Romans 15:22–33. When Paul went to minister to the Christians in Judea, he asked his Christian brothers to pray for him that he would be rescued from the disobedient in Judea.
