In a world that equates worth with productivity and identity with success, it's easy to feel like you're only as valuable as your latest achievement. But tonight’s devotional and prayer gently remind us of a timeless truth: **you are not what you do—**you are who God says you are. We chase checklists, accolades, and approval, yet still feel empty. That’s because our souls were never meant to be fueled by applause—they were meant to be filled by grace. Scripture says your identity is rooted in being a child of God, not a human “doing.” Even on days when you accomplish nothing by the world’s standards, you are deeply loved, fully known, and eternally valuable in Christ. 📖 Tonight’s Bible Verse Ephesians 2:10 (NIV) “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” 🙏 Let’s Pray Together Dear Lord, When I feel like I’m not doing enough, remind me that my value isn’t measured by productivity. Thank You for loving me simply because I’m Yours. Help me find rest from the pressure to perform, and root my identity in Your unchanging truth. Teach me to live from a place of grace instead of striving. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🧠 Three Things to Meditate Upon You are God’s masterpiece—already accepted, already loved. Productivity doesn’t define your worth—God’s Word does. Rest is not laziness—it’s worship. Slow down and be with Him.

Life doesn’t always feel tidy. Some days, our homes, relationships, and hearts feel overwhelmed by mess—physically, emotionally, or spiritually. But the beauty of grace is this: God doesn’t wait for our lives to be cleaned up to meet with us. He draws near to us in the mess, reminding us we are still loved, seen, and held. 📖 “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” — Psalm 34:18 📖 “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” — 2 Corinthians 12:9 📖 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28 Today’s prayer invites you to lay down perfection and receive peace. Your mess doesn’t disqualify you—it might just be the very place God wants to meet you.

Depression and emotional heaviness can make life feel like it’s been swallowed by darkness. Whether it stems from overwhelming circumstances or silent battles within, those moments can leave us feeling alone, helpless, and discouraged. But in today’s prayer and devotional, we’re reminded that Jesus is the Light of the World—and no darkness can overcome Him (John 1:5). If you're feeling weary, weighed down, or struggling with sadness, this prayer is for you. It points you back to the radiant, unshakable light of Christ, who walks with you even through the valley. You are not alone. His light still shines—even when you can’t feel it. 📖 Today’s Bible Reading John 1:4–5 (NIV) “In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” 🙏 Let’s Pray Together Dear Jesus, Please help me find light when I feel surrounded by darkness. You are the Light of the World, and Your love pierces through despair. Surround me with Your brilliance and guide me to trust You even in the hardest moments. Thank You that darkness will never overcome Your light. Amen.

Disagreements are a natural part of life—whether within our families, friendships, workplaces, or church communities. But division doesn't have to follow. In today’s devotional and prayer, we reflect on the Apostle Paul’s powerful appeal to the Corinthians to be “perfectly united in mind and thought.” (1 Corinthians 1:10) True unity doesn’t mean we all have to agree on everything—it means we choose grace over pride, humility over ego, and peace over personal preference. As believers, our shared identity in Christ is stronger than any opinion that could divide us. Whether you're navigating a church conflict, tension at home, or relational strain, today’s prayer reminds us that we can disagree without being divided—and that the Spirit of Christ enables unity, even in the midst of difference. 📖 Today’s Bible Verse 1 Corinthians 1:10 (NIV) “I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought.” 🙏 Prayer for Unity Heavenly Father, Thank You for the gift of Your Word and the truth that we are one family in Christ. Help us to pursue unity in our relationships and within the church. When disagreements arise, give us wisdom to respond with grace and humility. Remind us that what unites us—Your love—is far greater than what divides us. May we be peacemakers and agents of reconciliation, reflecting Your heart in all we do. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🧠 Three Things to Meditate Upon Disagreement is not the enemy—division is. Unity means navigating conflict with grace. Ask yourself: “Am I choosing pride or peace?” Unity often starts with humility. Jesus prayed for our unity (John 17:21).

Exploring spiritual consistency, forgiveness in relationships, and the call to relentless mercy. Includes insights from Peter, James, John.

Mark Wahlberg has revealed that his children find his movie work to be “boring” and dull. His kids are not too impressed with his high-powered acting career. Watch the short but hilarious clip where Mark talks about what his children think about his job in Hollywood.

Generally, children are not overly excited about their parents’ careers. Most of them typically do not want to hear about their mother and father talking about the ins and outs of their jobs. The kids would much rather hear about something, really anything else, other than what their parents did that day at work.

However, that would be the case for children with parents who are dentists, engineers or hold other less-than-exciting positions. For one of the biggest names in Hollywood, their children would most certainly be thrilled and excited to hear about their parents’ jobs, right? Well, if you thought that, you’d be 100 percent wrong.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Mark Wahlberg said that his family recently visited him on the set of one of his upcoming movies. According to Mark, his kids couldn’t care less about his career in Hollywood. He adds that they used to be somewhat interested in what he does for a living, but not much anymore.

“The kids are no longer in the Transformer days,” he said. They were interested. They wanted to come see the action. They wanted to see Bumblebee. Now they’re like, ‘Dad, this is boring. Your job is stupid.’”

He also added that they aren’t so much interested in what he does until they get the opportunity to meet someone they are a fan of. When that happens, they show a little more interest in their father’s line of work.

He mentioned that even though his kids aren’t into his acting career, he still appreciated and loved having his family visit the set to spend time with him.

Ephesians 6:4 “And, you fathers, do not make your children angry: but give them training in the teaching and fear of the Lord.”

✝️ Overcoming the Devil | Matthew 4:1–11 In the wilderness, after fasting forty days and nights, Jesus was tested by the devil. Three times He was tempted — with bread, with power, and with glory. Three times He resisted — standing firm on the Word of God. This powerful passage reminds us that when we face trials and temptation, God’s Word gives us the strength to overcome. 🙏 Prayer: Lord, help us to resist temptation. Strengthen us with Your Word. Guide us to trust You always. Amen. 🔔 Subscribe to True Pasture for more: Inspiring Bible stories Catholic saints of the day Uplifting prayers and reflections

We carry so many things that were never meant for our shoulders—outcomes we can’t dictate, people we can’t change, futures we can’t predict. But tonight’s prayer and devotional remind us that God never asked us to manage the world—He asked us to trust Him with it. When life feels uncertain and control slips through your fingers, Psalm 55:22 gives this life-giving command: “Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you.” Letting go isn’t giving up—it’s giving back. It’s handing over the illusion of control and exchanging it for God’s faithful care. Whether you’re worried about your family, health, finances, relationships, or the state of the world, this prayer invites you to place it all in God’s hands—because they’re stronger, steadier, and always at work for your good. 📖 Tonight’s Scripture Psalm 55:22 (NIV) "Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken." 🙏 Your Nightly Prayer Lord, You see the burdens I’m carrying—the ones I talk about and the ones I silently hold. So many things feel out of my hands, but they were never meant to stay in my hands. Help me to release my grip on what I can’t control. Show me how to trust Your plans, rest in Your presence, and walk in peace even when I don’t know what tomorrow holds. Thank You for carrying what I cannot. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🧘 Three Things to Meditate Upon Tonight What worries are you clinging to that you could place in God’s hands instead? Write them down and pray through them. Reflect on a time in the past when God worked things out in a way you couldn’t have predicted—what does that reveal about His trustworthiness? Repeat Psalm 55:22 aloud as your evening mantra: “Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you.” Subscribe and click the bell (🔔) to receive nightly encouragements and prayers that bring peace, rest, and a reset of your heart. 📲 Connect with us on Social Media: Facebook: facebook.com/iBelievedotcom Pinterest: pinterest.com/ibelievecom Instagram: instagram.com/ibelievecom Newsletters: ibelieve.com/newsletters Feeling overwhelmed by what’s out of your control?

A gloomy sky, a long to-do list, or a sudden interruption can leave us feeling discouraged, disconnected, and emotionally drained. But you're not alone—and you're not without hope. In today’s Your Daily Prayer, we’re reminded that even King David, a man after God’s own heart, wrestled with these same emotions. In Psalm 42:5, we read his raw honesty: "Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God." David models something powerful: praising God even when joy feels distant. Praise is more than a feeling—it’s a spiritual decision that shifts our eyes off the clouds and onto the Light. God’s presence meets us right in the heaviness, offering peace, comfort, and hope. 🕊️ Key Takeaways Discouragement doesn’t need a big reason—God understands the hidden burdens of your heart. Psalm 42:5 invites us to choose praise even before the breakthrough comes. Praise shifts our mindset, helping us remember God's faithfulness rather than our feelings. Joy isn’t a mood—it’s a posture of hope in God’s unchanging love and character. 🙏 Let’s Pray Together Father God, You are my hope and joy. On the days when my spirit feels heavy and my contentment slips away, remind me to place my hope in You. Help me to praise You in every circumstance—whether the valley is deep or the clouds are temporary. Thank You for being my Savior, my constant, and my sovereign God. Today and every day, I choose to praise You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

As summer winds down and the air shifts toward fall, life often feels both exciting and overwhelming. For some, this season brings relief as routines return. For others, it reintroduces the pressure of packed schedules, back-to-school stress, and lingering exhaustion from a whirlwind summer. In tonight’s Your Nightly Prayer, we reflect on how peace doesn’t come from perfect plans—it comes from God’s presence. Whether your summer included joyful road trips, unexpected hardships, or the quiet ache of transition, God invites you to rest in Him. Clarence’s story reminds us that even in job loss and personal upheaval, God’s peace holds steady. 📖 “The LORD gives strength to his people; the LORD blesses his people with peace.” — Psalm 29:11 📖 “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” — Isaiah 26:3 📖 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28 This episode is a powerful reminder that peace is not the absence of chaos—but the presence of God in it. You can choose to carry anxiety, or you can choose to rest in the arms of the One who never changes, no matter the season. Lord, I am thankful that, though times change and seasons shift, You remain the same. As I come to the end of one chapter and look toward the next, help me to keep my eyes on You. You know how easily I drift toward worry when life feels chaotic. In those moments, draw me back into Your presence, where Your peace reigns. Tonight, I release my anxious thoughts and receive Your blessing of peace. Let me sleep soundly, knowing You are in control and I can fully rest in You. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🧘 Three Things to Meditate Upon What if peace isn't something you achieve, but something you receive? Let go of the hustle and receive God's rest. Is your calendar driven by culture or by calling? Surrender your schedule to God and let Him direct your priorities. What has changed since the beginning of summer? Celebrate God’s faithfulness through the highs and lows, even if the journey looked different than expected.

Explore grief, distracted faith, false teaching, and the miracles of provision. A Call to answer Jesus’ question: “Who do you say I am?”

As the school year, sports, and activities fill up our calendars, the pressure to keep up can feel overwhelming. As tonight's prayer and devotional reminds us, between supply runs, carpools, and endless sign-ups, our schedules quickly balloon with commitments. Amanda shares how her own family calendar—packed with multiple kids’ needs, sports, and events—reminded her of the importance of pausing before saying yes to just one more thing. Instead of letting the season run us, we can invite God to guide our steps and direct our plans. Each year, Amanda’s church begins August with 21 days of prayer to prepare for the coming season. Maybe this fall, God is inviting you to pause, pray, and surrender every calendar item into His care. When we do, we find peace, joy, and wisdom for the season ahead. Tonight’s Scripture: Proverbs 19:21 “Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails.” 🔗 Read more on BibleStudyTools.com 🙏 Your Nightly Prayer Father, Thank You for the opportunities and blessings in the season ahead. Before I fill my calendar, I surrender my plans to You. Guide my steps, open the doors only You can open, and close the ones I’m not meant to walk through. Anchor my heart in peace and joy as I enter this fall. May my schedule reflect not just busyness, but Your purpose. Amen. 🧘 Three Things to Meditate Upon Which commitments bring true joy and meaning to your life, and which simply drain you? What might you need to release this season? Consider choosing a set number of days—7, 14, or 21—to pray daily over your calendar and commitments before the fall rush begins. Pick a key verse to ground you this season. Post it in your home and let it remind you to stay rooted in God’s presence.

In a world of perfectly filtered highlight reels, it’s all too easy to feel behind. We scroll and wonder why everyone else seems joyful, successful, carefree—while we feel stuck, invisible, or delayed. Comparison has a way of whispering lies that steal our joy, distort our identity, and distance us from the truth of God's love. Tonight’s prayer and devotional is a powerful reminder that God sees you—not the version you think you should be, but you. Your life may look quieter, slower, or harder than others’, but it is no less valuable in His hands. Inspired by Galatians 6:4, this episode challenges the tendency to measure our lives against others and instead invites us to examine our journey with God’s eyes. Just as Sophia shares how chronic illness once left her feeling behind, she also recounts how God—El Roi, the One who sees—met her in the hidden moments and revealed purpose in the pause. 📖 “Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone, without comparing themselves to someone else.” — Galatians 6:4 📖 “The Lord watches over all who love him.” — Psalm 145:20 📖 “You are precious and honored in my sight.” — Isaiah 43:4 Lord, You are the God who sees me, just as You saw Hagar in the wilderness. Help me turn from the lie that others have it better, easier, or more joyful than I do. Instead, open my eyes to where You are at work in my life right now. Teach me to celebrate the growth You are producing in me and to rest in the assurance that I am fully seen, known, and loved by You. Amen.

What’s the plan? The world will tell you that YOU have to make your own plan for your life! But God has a plan for your life, and our job is to listen to His plan and accept it. How does that make you feel …? www.toughquestionsforgod.org #jesuslife #devotions #dailydevotion #faithoverfear

Nobody is here by mistake. Every single one of us was created with purpose. 🙌 Jeremiah 29:11 promises: “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” God did not put you here just to suffer — He called you to rise above suffering through Christ and turn it into a testimony that gives hope to others.
