Podcasts about Weary

Saturday is review day on The Daily Promise. Every Saturday, we review the promises of the week so we can allow them to go deep into our hearts and lives. Here are the promises we covered this week. Galatians 3:26 – We are a Son or Daughter of God. Ephesians 1:2 – You Have Grace and Peace. Jeremiah 29:13 – The Joy of Finding God. Isaiah 40:29 – God Will Strengthen the Weary. Ephesians 2:10 – You are God's Handiwork.

Today's Promise: Isaiah 40:29 Feeling worn out, overwhelmed, or like you just don't have the strength to keep going? You're not alone. In today's episode, we talk about a powerful promise for those moments when life leaves you weary and running on empty.   Our fast-paced world constantly pushes us to do more, move faster, and carry heavier loads. It's no wonder so many people feel exhausted. But God never intended for you to rely on your strength alone. He offers to strengthen you when you are weary.   In this episode, you'll discover how trusting the Lord opens the door to renewed strength and fresh power for the challenges you face each day. When you stop trying to carry everything yourself and place your trust in Him, God steps in with the strength you need.   If you've been feeling drained or overwhelmed lately, this episode will remind you that God is ready to renew your strength today.

Today’s Bible Verse: “The Sovereign Lord has given me a well-instructed tongue, to know the word that sustains the weary. He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being instructed.” — Isaiah 50:4 Isaiah 50:4 reminds us that God equips His people to bring encouragement to others. The verse paints a picture of someone who listens to God each morning and then speaks words that strengthen the weary. Before we can encourage well, we must first learn to listen.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/ece-devotions/20260309ECME.mp3 Listen to Devotion Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I won't get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.” John 4:13-15 Drink From the Well Beet-red cheeks. Forehead hair stuck to a damp brow. Children coming in from a summer afternoon of hard play. Thirsty! Water! Water is on their minds, wet and refreshing. Water can cool the body temperature and fill every organ and cell in their little bodies. Water is a necessary element for life. Water was necessary for the woman at the well. She was there on that hot afternoon to get water for her survival. Red cheeks. Sweaty head. Little did she know, she was going to receive living water necessary for her eternal life. “Living water” is what Jesus offered her. At first, it sounded like a time saver. She would not have to strategically plan her day to be at the well when her nosy neighbors were not. She would not have to heave or huff as she balanced her water jug on the walk home. In fact, she would not have to go at all! One drink and she would be done with this relentless errand! Of course, Jesus was not offering her actual wet water from the well in her town. Jesus was offering himself as her Savior. Her embarrassing string of bad decisions were sins that separated her from God. Jesus was telling her to draw water from him, her Savior from her sin. The picture Jesus created for her told her to, “Listen to me! Be forgiven in me! I am the only one who can quench your thirst for peace in your heart. I constantly provide peace between you and God because when I am in your heart, God will look at you and see what I have done for you! He will see that you are one of my very own, a precious and forgiven spiritual sibling who is no longer thirsty for mercy from any other well because you have mercy in me!” We need Jesus, the living water, too! During Lent, we ponder our sin. We look at Jesus, on his way to the cross, willing to be nailed to that cross for our sins. Those are the sins that would separate us from God. Yet, by faith, we have Jesus, our living water. He satisfies our thirst for mercy by taking those sins into his own hands. When God looks upon believing hearts, he sees Jesus' perfect life and his innocent death on the cross. He sees Jesus' empty grave. There is no more separation. He calls us his own, a precious and forgiven child. Weary sinner, drink from the well of living water that Jesus offers to you. Find mercy and peace in Jesus, your forgiving Savior from sin! Prayer: Thank you for being my Savior from sin. Help me share your word with all around me so that they, too, may drink from the well of living water. Amen!

The hours of the morning have already taken their toll. The mind feels stretched, the heart feels thin, and strength feels smaller than it needs to be. But here we speak Your name — Jesus, Jesús, Jesus — the name that restores, the name that lifts, the name that breathes courage back into tired places. Meet every listener now with renewed strength and gentle power. Your Word declares that because we love You, You will rescue us and protect us. So, Jesus, come into the heaviness of this midday moment. Lift the one who feels they cannot continue. Strengthen the one who is quietly fighting battles others cannot see. Bring rest to the anxious heart and clarity to the overwhelmed mind. Jesus, Tu me fortaleces. Jesús, Tú renuevas mi espíritu. Let this moment become a turning point in the centre of the day. “He restores my soul.” “Refrigera a minha alma.” Restore us inwardly where fatigue settles deepest. Let hope rise again. Let the noise inside us quiet. Let confidence return. And in the places where weakness feels like failure, remind us that Your grace is sufficient — graça suficiente, gracia suficiente — more than enough for every demand, every pressure, every unseen weight. Jesus, breathe courage into this hour. Renew strength where it has been draining away. Lift weary hands, steady trembling hearts, and empower each listener to walk through the rest of the day with resilience shaped by Your love.

Yet into these middle hours, Isaiah 40:31 declares a promise that does not weaken — those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. Jesus, You see the tiredness that collects by midday — decisions waiting, responsibilities pressing, the emotional weight of the hours already lived, and the fear of what still lies ahead. But You speak into this moment: hope is not passive; hope lifts, hope renews, hope restores. Like an eagle rising on unseen currents, You raise us above the heaviness of the day. Lord, lift every listener who feels drained, frustrated, or stretched thin. Calm the mind that is racing. Strengthen the heart that feels fragile. Revive courage in those facing uncertainty. And let these middle hours become a turning point, not a point of collapse. Your grace is enough — Tua graça me basta. Your power is made perfect in weakness — Teu poder se aperfeiçoa quando me sinto fraco. Your presence does not waver at noon; it intensifies. Jesus, renew my strength now. Replace exhaustion with endurance. Replace heaviness with hope. Replace striving with trust. Let this midday become a holy moment where You breathe life back into the weary places. May every listener rise today — stronger, steadier, carried by Your presence, and renewed by the promise that You lift those who hope in You.

Tap here to send us a message!In a world where faithfulness can feel exhausting and results are not always immediate, Scripture calls us to remain steadfast in doing what is right. Though weariness may come, we are reminded that there is a promised harvest for those who refuse to give up. Be Not Weary in Well Doing is a call to persevere with confidence, trusting that God sees every labor of love and will reward faithfulness in due season.03/01/2026 - Sunday Afternoon Scriptures:Galatians 6:92 Thessalonians 3:13 

Text: Matthew 6:24-34

The Scripture readings are Isaiah 40:27-31; 1 Thessalonians 4:1-7; Matthew 15:21-28. Wait for the Lord. Christ has you in His timing and in His strength. He knows how best to rescue you. So, keep praying to Him, move closer to Him, and keep patiently and faithfully waiting.

What if nothing done for Christ is ever wasted?What if the work you do this week — the prayer you whisper, the integrity you choose, the person you point to Jesus — actually carries eternal weight?If you've ever felt:• Weary in doing good• Overlooked for doing the right thing• Like your labor didn't “pay off”• Wondered if serving, giving, forgiving, or leading really matteredThis message is for you.We'll unpack what Scripture says about:- How your everyday work can survive God's holy evaluation- What it means to build with gold instead of straw- Why nothing done for Christ is ever wasted- How your career, calling, and conversations can echo into eternityYou'll see how the resurrection of Jesus doesn't just raise people— it redeems purpose.Imagine standing before Christ and discovering that more carried over into Heaven than you ever realized.

Then David came to Nob, to Ahimelech the priest. And Ahimelech came to meet David, trembling, and said to him, "Why are you alone, and no one with you?" 2 And David said to Ahimelech the priest, "The king has charged me with a matter and said to me, 'Let no one know anything of the matter about which I send you, and with which I have charged you.' I have made an appointment with the young men for such and such a place. 3 Now then, what do you have on hand? Give me five loaves of bread, or whatever is here." 4 And the priest answered David, "I have no common bread on hand, but there is holy bread—if the young men have kept themselves from women." 5 And David answered the priest, "Truly women have been kept from us as always when I go on an expedition. The vessels of the young men are holy even when it is an ordinary journey. How much more today will their vessels be holy?" 6 So the priest gave him the holy bread, for there was no bread there but the bread of the Presence, which is removed from before the Lord, to be replaced by hot bread on the day it is taken away. 7 Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before the Lord. His name was Doeg the Edomite, the chief of Saul's herdsmen. 8 Then David said to Ahimelech, "Then have you not here a spear or a sword at hand? For I have brought neither my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste." 9 And the priest said, "The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you struck down in the Valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod. If you will take that, take it, for there is none but that here." And David said, "There is none like that; give it

Praying when you're weary: Learning to Pray Like Jesus - Week 5 by St Stephen's Willoughby

Lately I've felt a heaviness that's hard to explain. Are you guys feeling it too?Not just regular sadness, something deeper. Like my eyes have been opened to how much darkness there really is in the world. And if I'm honest, it made me feel overwhelmed… and even angry. The kind of anger that makes you want to call everything out. But somewhere in that, I realized my heart was starting to feel hard and that scared me.Because I never want to look more like the world than I look like Jesus.God has taken me through such a deep spiritual journey recently, and this episode is really just me speaking from that place. No perfect outline, no polished message just me trying to process what God has been showing me with you guys.I talk about what it feels like to see darkness clearly without losing hope… how reading the Old Testament made me realize evil never really stopped… and how God met me in a moment where I honestly felt exhausted and asked Him what the point of all of this even is.And instead of pressure, like always, He met me with gentleness.This episode is about learning how to hold righteous anger without letting it turn into sin… how to discern truth and remain hopeful… and how to stay like Christ in a world that can feel harsh and confusing.Because following Jesus right now can feel complicated. The lines feel blurred. There are so many voices telling us what is right and wrong. And sometimes it feels easier to become hardened than to stay loving.But Jesus didn't call us to perform righteousness, He called us to abide in Him.This is not a fear message. It's not a “Jesus is coming tomorrow” message. It's just a reminder that we are not fighting for victory, we are living from it.Jesus has already overcome the world.And even when everything feels heavy and confusing… He is still gentle with the weary.So if you've been feeling spiritually tired… overwhelmed by the world… or unsure how to follow Jesus without losing your heart in the process,you're not alone. I promise you're not. Love you guys!!John 16:33“In this world you will have trouble. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”Scripture Mentioned:1 Peter 5:8 • 2 Corinthians 11:14 • John 16:33 • Romans 8:1 • Ephesians 2:8–9 • Matthew 22:37–39 • Galatians 5:22–23 • Matthew 5:44 • Matthew 9:10–13 • Ephesians 4:26 • Matthew 11:28 • John 14:26–27 • Romans 8:26 • Hosea 6:6 • John 15:5 • Matthew 24:36 • James 1:27 • John 1:5 • Revelation 21:4 • Philippians 1:6instagram.com/growingthrough.pod

What should we do when we grow weary in serving the Lord? In this episode, we look honestly at the challenge of discouragement—and discover the biblical tools God gives us to keep going. Even when the work is hard, Scripture calls us to look up, press on, rejoice, and pray on. These are not just difficult days… they are days of great opportunity.We also ask a vital question: Is Jesus the One building your church? We explore some of the things that weaken or hinder the work of God—and how to stay focused on what truly strengthens His church.Plus, you'll hear lighthearted but meaningful stories about a couple of children who found themselves in the midst of it all… and the lesson tucked inside those moments.If you're feeling tired, stretched, or in need of encouragement, this episode is for you. Let the Word of God remind you to stay faithful, stay joyful, and keep your eyes on Him as you continue the work He has called you to do.The Voice in the Wilderness does not endorse any link or other material found at buzzsprout.More at https://www.thevoiceinthewilderness.org/

This lecture explores the profound teachings of Jesus as presented in Matthew 11:20-30, focusing on Jesus' denouncement of unrepentant towns and his invitation to those who are weary. The session begins with a reading that sets the stage for Jesus' criticism of Chorazin, Bethsaida, and Capernaum, towns that witnessed numerous miracles yet failed to turn to God. The lecturer, Ian, introduces this context by recounting a story from the life of Matt Canlis, who, while meeting with a skeptic from a small Scottish village, illustrated the significance of geographical proximity to miraculous events and the accountability that comes with it.Ian emphasizes that these towns had unprecedented access to Jesus and his teachings, making their rejection of his message particularly poignant. By juxtaposing these Galilean villages with notorious cities like Tyre, Sidon, and Sodom, Jesus underlines a critical biblical principle: with great knowledge comes great responsibility. The discussion invites listeners to reflect on their own context, especially in a nation like the United States, where access to the words and teachings of Jesus is unparalleled.The lecture transitions to a prayer from Jesus expressing gratitude for God revealing truths to the “childlike” while hiding them from the “wise.” This prayer shifts the tone from condemnation to affirmation, illustrating God's preference for humility and receptivity over intellectual pride. Ian draws parallels with historical and scriptural references, noting the consequences of a hardened heart towards God. The lecture stresses that genuine worship and relationship with God go beyond outward appearances and rituals; their essence lies in the condition of the heart.The focus then moves toward the invitation Jesus extends to the weary and heavy-laden. Ian elaborates on the concept of taking on Jesus' yoke, explaining its implications both as a metaphor for learning from him and as an invitation into a deeper relational dynamic with the God who provides rest. He articulates that this rest is not merely physical relief but an overarching peace that comes from trust in God's provision.Ian contrasts Jesus' yoke with the burdens of cultural expectations and personal struggles, urging participants to consider what yokes they might be carrying that leave them exhausted. He discusses the dual nature of Jesus as both humble and powerful, capable of bearing burdens while inviting believers into a partnership that offers rest and learning. The imagery of yoking together, especially a younger ox with an older one, illustrates the nature of this relationship—Jesus as the stronger partner who supports the believer in navigating life's challenges.As the lecture progresses, Ian invites listeners to engage with their own weariness, suggesting that coming to Jesus provides not just relief but guidance in learning to live in alignment with God's will. The session culminates with an invitation for prayer, allowing those feeling burdened an opportunity to seek support in the community and to step into the rest that Jesus promises.Ultimately, Ian emphasizes the importance of remaining receptive to God's voice and guidance, challenging listeners to approach their faith with the eagerness of a child ready to learn. The invitation to “come to me” is framed not just as a call to relief but as an entrance into a transformative relationship with Jesus, reinforcing the belief that he offers a fitting yoke that leads to true rest for the soul.

Today’s Bible Verse: “The humble have seen it and are glad—you who seek God, let your heart revive.” — Psalm 69:32 Psalm 69:32 offers hope to those who feel overlooked, weary, or low in spirit. God sees the humble and lifts their hearts with renewed life. This verse reminds us that seeking God is not in vain—He meets those who come to Him with openness and need. “Want to listen without ads?

"Send us a message! (questions, feedback, etc.)"Does a focus on acknowledging trauma and providing safety create more resilient or fragile people? That question is at the heart of many charged discussions about therapy and trauma work. Virtually every contemporary therapeutic modality recognizes the impact trauma has on our current struggles. But many people feel it's too much focus, and that the result is people who can't handle anything difficult and who call "trauma" on everything that's hard in life.Chuck DeGroat has a lot to say about this. He has been a pastor, and is currently a therapist, author, and seminary professor (Western Theological Seminary) who specializes in pastoral & leadership health, abuse & trauma, and navigating spiritual & emotional obstacles on the faith journey.Chuck is the author of multiple books, including When Narcissism Comes to Church: Healing Your Community From Emotional and Spiritual Abuse and Healing What's Within: Coming Home to Yourself and to God When You're Weary, Wounded, and Wandering. He also authors a Substack page (Sit With Chuck), and a recent post is the subject of most of our conversation.Chuck lives in Grand Rapids, Michigan with his wife.

Send a text"I have so much to do today that I shall spend the first three hours in prayer".  Martin LutherWhen we talk about Sabbath rest, it is easy to go down various paths.  For some, although Sabbath is an oft-heard term, the idea of how to observe it is foreign.  For others, the Sabbath can seem like a legalistic thing and many boundaries can be made around it.  This episode seeks to get an understanding from the source:  God's word.  The Sabbath is instituted right from the start in Genesis 2:2 as God rested or paused from His work.  We see that the Sabbath is created for man and for our benefit.  Finally, we see that as we observe the Sabbath (a day of rest), we depend upon the Lord more and hear His heart.  We invite you to tune into this podcast and by the end, take the challenge to incorporate the Sabbath into your life each week!

Life constantly tempts us to measure contentment by what we lack—but Scripture tells a different story. This Christian devotional explores how God is more than enough, even in a culture driven by comparison, accumulation, and the constant pursuit of “more.” Rooted in Psalm 4:7, this devotion invites believers to rediscover joy, peace, and lasting satisfaction found not in possessions, but in a secure relationship with God. Highlights Contentment grows when we focus on what God provides, not what we lack God’s joy surpasses material abundance and worldly success Gratitude reshapes our perspective in seasons of comparison True security comes from God, not possessions or financial stability Spiritual blessings in Christ are eternal and unshakeable God’s promises bring peace even in uncertain circumstances When we have God, we truly have more than enough Do you want to listen ad-free?

Weary of constantly being reminded of what we didn’t have that her friends’ families did, I finally blew! “Do you realize what we do have?” I snapped. “You have a roof over your head, and these days, that should be enough!” Apparently, my words struck a chord with her. Her face fell, and she sadly told me of another one of her friends who was losing her home due to her parents’ job loss. Immediately, my tone softened as I realized my daughter had already been convicted by her own words. We prayed for the family that was losing their hom,e and then I silently prayed for wisdom to turn that topic into a teaching moment. “You know, Sweetie,” I told her softly, as I continued to drive, “a lot of people around us are losing their homes. That’s why it’s important for us to not only think about what we have and be grateful for it, but to focus on what we have that we will never lose.” She looked at me, puzzled, for a moment. And then she got it. We immediately began to recount all that we have that can never be taken from us: The love we have for each other in our family The memories we’ve had in our three-bedroom condo (and the small two-bedroom home we owned prior to that) The unconditional love of God (Romans 5:8) The gift of our salvation (Ephesians 2:8-9) A promised mansion in Eternity (John 14:2-3) I realized that day that my daughter is not the only one who often wishes she had more. It’s easy for me, at times, to look at what others have and be envious. It’s natural for me to sometimes wish I had a little more money to indulge in my desires. But so often I forget all I do have…and that it is more than enough. So often, we go through life looking at what others have and wondering when our ship will come in. Then we remember we have a God who owns the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10), a God who has gone to prepare a place for us and who will come again and receive us to Himself so that where He is, we will be—forever (John 14:3). In Psalm 4, David begins his song by asking God for relief from his distress. But then he must have remembered what he had, because he finished his song with a perspective of joy: “You have put joy in my heart,More than when their grain and new wine are abundant.In peace I will both lie down and sleep,For You alone, Lord, have me dwell in safety” (verses 7-8). In The Message translation, verse 7 reads: “I have God’s more-than-enough, more joy in one ordinary day than they get in all their shopping sprees.” That sounds like a song I should be singing every day that I begin to forget my blessings and start longing for more. Intersecting Faith & Life: God is our true source of security in an insecure world…and He is the Only One who satisfies in a culture where we can never seem to get enough. When we have Him—along with His promises for provision, protection, and peace—we have “more than enough.” Can you draw strength from knowing that you have God’s more-than-enough, even if at times it doesn’t look like quite enough? Thank Him today for all that you have, as well as for the blessings that you don’t yet see. The Bible says if we belong to Christ, God has blessed us in the heavenly realm with every spiritual blessing in Christ (Ephesians 1:3). And if we “share in His sufferings” we are “heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ” (Romans 8:17). Joint heirs with God! Think about that. We are heirs of all that is His. Now that’s an inheritance. That’s a future. And that is more than enough.

In this episode of Don't Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study Moses 7 and step into Enoch's vision of a world filled with division, sorrow, and darkness, and the surprising hope God offers in the middle of it. This chapter contrasts Canaan and Zion and reminds us that Zion can exist in a hard world because the Lord comes and dwells with His people. We also learn something deeply personal about God. He weeps. He is not too big to care, and He is not far away from what we are carrying. If you've ever wondered how long the hard days will last or if God is still involved, this episode is for you.

You don't have to carry everything you're holding.In this episode of Dad Tired Daily, Jerrad leads a short guided exercise to help you notice what you're carrying—and discern what God never asked you to hold in the first place. Together, we explore how responsibility, survival, and old wounds can quietly pile up, and how Scripture invites us to cast our burdens on the Lord.This is a quiet, practical moment of soul care for tired men who want to walk a little lighter today.

In this heartfelt conversation, Dr. Zach Clinton sits down with bestselling author and Midnight Mom devotional founder, Becky Thompson, to speak directly to the weary woman who feels tired, anxious, and unseen. With honesty and compassion, Becky shares her personal journey with anxiety, the power of prayer and community, and why faith and mental health are not opposing forces. Together, they explore the hidden loneliness many women and moms carry, the myth that anxiety reflects spiritual weakness, and how true healing rest can be found even in the middle of ongoing struggles. This episode offers wisdom, encouragement, and hope for any woman longing to reconnect with God, experience peace beyond the pressure, and discover that she is not alone…especially in the midnight hours.
