Forming a biblical foundation for life
Father, On this fifth day of Christmas, we rejoice in the angel’s announcement of Good News. It truly does fill our hearts with joy. It is Your Good News for all people. A Savior has been born to us. This Savior is Christ the Lord. He is Your King who has come to save His … Continue reading Fifth Day of Christmas Prayer
Note: December 28 has traditionally been called "Massacre of the Innocents" or "Childermass." It has traditionally been set aside to remember the small ones in Bethlehem that Herod slaughtered in his attempt to kill Jesus (Matthew 2:16-18). Father, On this day of Christmastide, we consider the children of Bethlehem the evil Herod slaughtered. These poor … Continue reading Fourth Day of Christmas Prayer
Father, on this second day of Christmastide we praise you for the incarnation of Jesus Christ. Praise be to the One who humbled himself and took on our humanity. 'Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who … Continue reading Second Day of Christmas Prayer
This post was originally published on December 1, 2020. Since our family is decorating our tree this evening, I thought of this post and wanted to share this idea again. I believe this will be an annual tradition. Our family decorated our Christmas tree yesterday evening. It is always fun to take out ornaments from … Continue reading Ornamental Prayer Prompts
Father, I am so thankful for the GIFT of salvation. I thank You that You have not given me my wages. I have only earned death. Thank You that it is not by any works that I have done in my self-righteousness, but it is completely by Your mercy that You have saved me. Thank … Continue reading Not By Works

I hope it is an encouragement to you! There have been times that I have prayed about a … Continue reading You Can’t Out-Imagine God
And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: but I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.Luke 22:31-32 These are incredible words. Satan literally demanded that Simon Peter be given to him. Satan's … Continue reading I Have Prayed for You
And it came to pass, that, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said unto Him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.(Luke 11:1) It is incredible to me that Jesus was a man of prayer. When God the Son became human, He … Continue reading Lord, Teach Us to Pray
This is a reminder that I need in these times: Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.(Hebrews 13:5) Lord Jesus, whether rich or poor by this world's standards Your people have everything, because we have … Continue reading I Will Never Leave You
“Commit your work to the LORD, and your plans will be established” (Proverbs 16:3). I have recently committed this verse to memory. I am often quick to get to work, but I am very slow to commit things to the Lord. It is easy to get busy in very good things but not seek the … Continue reading Commit Your Work to the LORD
