    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Proverbs 6:6-8

    Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise: Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.
    PROVERBS 6:6-8

    DEVOTION
    Based on Proverbs 6
    Even the smallest creatures can teach us wisdom. The ant works with diligence, foresight, and discipline—without needing reminders. This proverb reminds us that wise living includes responsibility and preparation. Laziness may feel easy, but it leads to a lack of regret.

    God honors effort and self-motivation. When we take initiative and plan, we reflect His design. Are there areas in your life that need order or discipline? Learn from the ant. Work with faithfulness. Plan with purpose. Your steady diligence is worship.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: God, You are wise and orderly. All creation reflects Your care and purpose—even the smallest creatures.

    CONFESSION: I admit I’ve delayed responsibilities and ignored opportunities to grow in discipline. I’ve waited for motivation instead of acting in obedience.

    THANKSGIVING: Thank You for Your Word that speaks plainly and practically. Thank You for showing me how even small actions can carry incredible value.

    SUPPLICATION: Lord, help me to approach each day with purpose. Please give me the strength to build good habits and discipline. Teach me to prepare for the future with faith, not fear. May my daily efforts reflect Your wisdom and give You glory.

    PRAYER
    Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise: Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.
    PROVERBS 6:6-8
    Dear Lord, You are an ever-present help in times of trouble. In Your grace and mercy, You have promised never to tempt us beyond what we can bear. We praise You for providing a way to rise above temptation when it comes our way. Help us to recognize the trials that come our way and give us strength to remain steadfast in our faith. Guide us with Your wisdom and love, so even when we fail You, we can still stand firm against the temptation of sin. Strengthen our hearts and minds, that we may not be overcome by what is thrown at us every day. Thank You for providing a way out of temptation, and for the peace we have in You. In Your Holy Name, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1378 - Jarvis Kingston And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus." – Philippians 4:19
    2025/06/20
    Your Daily Prayer 🙏🏾 1 Kings 17:7

    Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.

    Today’s daily devotional is about Elijah and the drought. God guided Elijah to proclaim a famine, yet provided for him through a brook and a widow, symbolizing Israel's spiritual drought and God's faithfulness.
    STORY
    Bible in a Year: Elijah and the Drought
    Scripture
    "And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus." – Philippians 4:19
    In times of scarcity or struggle, how can you remain steadfast in your faith and trust in God's provision?

    Have you ever experienced a season of drought in your life—times of spiritual dryness or overwhelming challenges?

    Elijah's story during the drought in Israel, found in 1 Kings 17, speaks powerfully to such times. As the nation faced physical famine due to their spiritual waywardness, Elijah, God's faithful prophet, declared this truth to King Ahab.

    Despite the bleak circumstances, God’s care for Elijah never wavered. He provided for Elijah at the Kerith Brook with ravens bringing him food, and when the brook dried up, God led him to a widow in Zarephath. There, both Elijah and the widow experienced God's miraculous provision, turning scarcity into sufficiency.

    Elijah’s journey reminds us that God is always present, even in our driest seasons. When life feels like a drought, and we are tempted to despair, we must remember God’s faithfulness.

    Elijah's reliance on God's guidance and provision teaches us to trust Him fully, even when the path ahead is unclear. In our modern lives, we too may face periods where resources are limited, or our spiritual fervor wanes. Yet, it is during these times that we can most profoundly experience God's provision and grace.

    Consider the areas in your life that feel barren or challenging. Are you looking to God for sustenance and direction? Elijah’s story encourages us to seek God's presence, trusting that He will provide what we need in His perfect timing and way.

    REFLECTION
    Reflect on your response to challenging seasons. Are you trusting God to meet your needs, or are you succumbing to fear and doubt?

    Take time this week to intentionally seek God's presence in prayer and study His Word. Identify the “droughts” in your life and invite God to show His provision and purpose through them.

    Commit to trusting Him more deeply, knowing that He is faithful and will provide, often in unexpected ways. Pray for a heart that is open to His guidance and provision, embracing His care even in the most difficult times.

    Turn prayer into a two-way conversation and seek God’s guidance with clarity and purpose.

    FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT ACTION: GOODNESS
    Take the time to plant flowers, herbs, or a tree to bless your environment.

    PRAYER
    And it came to pass after a while, that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.
    1 KINGS 17:7
    Dear God, when there is drought in our world and recessions in our economy, I will look to You to provide for myself and those I love, like You did for the prophet Elijah by the brook. In the same miraculous manner I thank You that, like the ravens You sustain, You will nourish me through miraculous connections and divine relationships. Place an internal clock within me to know when it's time to move on to the next season of my journey. As I move in obedience, give me the faith to move as the widow did, knowing that if God said it, He will be faithful to perform it. Even when my dreams seem like they’re dying I thank You that when I call upon Your name You will resurrect what seemed to be dead and breathe new life into the promises in my life! In Jesus’ Name, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1377 - Jarvis Kingston Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established PROVERBS 16:3 Juneteenth Iran Israel EU
    2025/06/19
    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Proverbs 16:3

    Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established
    PROVERBS 16:3

    DEVOTION
    Based on Proverbs 16
    When we surrender our plans to God, He brings clarity and stability to our minds. Often we strive, plan, and worry about outcomes, but this verse calls us to trust. Committing our works to the Lord isn’t just about asking for His blessing; it’s about releasing control. When we give God our efforts, He aligns our thoughts with His wisdom.

    He doesn’t promise immediate success in our terms, but He promises firm direction. If you feel scattered or overwhelmed, try laying your tasks before Him in prayer. Watch how His peace steadies your thoughts and how His purpose shapes your day.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: Lord, You are trustworthy and wise. You know every detail of my day and every intention of my heart.

    CONFESSION: I often move forward without involving You in my plans. I act in haste or anxiety rather than faith.

    THANKSGIVING: Thank You for caring about my work and offering to establish my thoughts when I surrender them to You.

    SUPPLICATION: Father, I give You my schedule, projects, and efforts. Align my thinking with Your truth. When distractions cloud my mind, bring clarity. Help me to act in step with Your Spirit and to trust Your timing. Establish my thoughts with peace and give me wisdom as I move through today.

    PRAYER
    Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established
    PROVERBS 16:3
    Dear Lord, You have given me a body, resources, and talents that ought not to be wasted. I do not want to squander one moment on this earth. Rather, I want to use everything You have given me to glorify You. Empower me today, Lord Jesus, with Your Spirit. Fill this bone and tissue with vitality and ability to follow through on my promises and be about Your kingdom. Give me wisdom to see my resources as tools to build Your Kingdom. Give me clarity to aim my talents like a well-placed arrow toward Your target. Use me, Lord. I am a temple to Your glory. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1376 - Jarvis Kingston And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply and replenish the earth and subdue it
    2025/06/18
    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Genesis 1:28

    And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. -

    Genesis 1:28


    DEVOTION
    Based on Genesis 1
    From the beginning, God gave humanity purpose and blessing. He created us to thrive, multiply, and steward His creation with wisdom and care. This verse reminds us that our daily work, relationships, and responsibilities are sacred assignments.

    We are not here by accident—we’re called to reflect God’s image in how we live, lead, and love. Whether in family life, the workplace, or in caring for the earth, we fulfill God’s commission when we approach life with faithfulness. Let your efforts today be shaped by the knowledge that you were created for impact, made to multiply goodness, and chosen to represent God’s authority on earth.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: Lord, You are the Creator and Giver of life, the One who blesses us with purpose and responsibility. I praise You for calling me to meaningful work.

    CONFESSION: I admit that I sometimes take for granted the roles You’ve entrusted to me. I’ve ignored Your call to steward my life wisely. Forgive me.

    THANKSGIVING: Thank You for blessing me with purpose. Thank You for allowing me to make a difference in this world.

    SUPPLICATION: Father, help me to be fruitful in all I do. Help me to live with purpose, lead with love, and steward the resources You’ve given. Remind me daily that I am called to walk in authority, not for pride, but for service, honor, and Your glory. Let my life reflect Your goodness.

    PRAYER
    And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
    GENESIS 1:28
    Dear Lord, There are many endeavors worthy of putting my effort into, but none as worthy as loving You. I want to seek You with all my heart, soul, and might. I want everything I do, say, and believe to echo into eternity. I want my entire being wrapped up in Your glory and empowered for Your mission. Do not just take some of me, Lord, take all of me. I give myself to You. For I know everyone and everything in my life is better off when I am submitted wholeheartidly to You. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1375 - Jarvis Kingston He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.” PSALM 23:3 NBA Finals
    2025/06/16
    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Psalm 23:3

    He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.”
    PSALM 23:3

    DEVOTION
    Based on Psalm 23
    God doesn’t just care for your needs—He restores your soul. He revives what feels broken or lost in the quiet places of weariness, confusion, or sorrow. This restoration is not temporary relief but deep, inner healing that only the Shepherd can give. He then leads you in the right way, not because you’re worthy, but because His name is on the line.

    His guidance isn’t harsh or confusing; it’s tender and purposeful. If your soul feels tired or directionless, come to the Shepherd. He knows the path. He revives your heart. He walks with you, not just for your sake, but for His glory.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: Lord, You are the Shepherd who gently restores and faithfully guides. I praise You for caring so deeply for my soul.

    CONFESSION: I confess that I have tried to restore myself with distractions or by going my own way, only to end up more lost.

    THANKSGIVING: Thank You for restoring me again and again. Thank You for leading me with mercy, even when I stray. Your guidance brings peace and clarity.

    SUPPLICATION: Father, restore the parts of me that feel tired, anxious, or broken. Lead me in paths of righteousness—show me the steps I should take and help me to trust Your direction. Let Your name be honored in my journey. When I feel unsure, remind me that You are leading. When I feel weak, remind me that You restore. Fill my soul with Your peace tonight and always.

    PRAYER
    “He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.”
    PSALM 23:3
    Dear Lord, You lead me in paths of righteousness for Your Name's sake. You restore my soul from its weary wanderings and bring me into true rest. As I seek to do Your will, I find myself in a place of peace and joy; a place where I am safe from the storms of life and can experience all the love and mercy You have for me. Your loving kindness is greater than I can imagine, and Your faithfulness never ceases to amaze me. As I draw near to You, I feel my spirit renewed with strength and purpose. Thank You for leading me into a place of rest that lasts forever. In Jesus' Name, Amen. 🙏🏾

    2025/06/15
    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Job 42:10

    And the Lord turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before.”
    JOB 42:10

    DEVOTION
    Based on Job 42
    This verse holds a powerful truth—Job’s restoration began when he shifted his focus outward. After unimaginable suffering, he prayed for those who had misunderstood and even wounded him. In that moment of intercession and forgiveness, God turned his captivity and poured out a double blessing.

    Sometimes, breakthrough comes not when our circumstances change, but when our hearts do. God honors humility, forgiveness, and compassion. If you’re waiting on restoration, ask yourself—can you pray for others in the middle of your pain? That act of faith may be the doorway to healing and divine increase.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: Lord, You are a restorer and redeemer. Your power to heal and bless goes beyond what we can imagine.

    CONFESSION: I’ve struggled to forgive those who’ve hurt me, especially when I’m already hurting. I’ve held onto bitterness instead of letting go.

    THANKSGIVING: Thank You for Job’s example—that even in deep pain, You invite us to love and pray for others. Thank You that You don’t waste our suffering.

    SUPPLICATION: Father, give me the grace to pray for those who wronged me. Change my heart even when my situation hasn’t changed. Help me to trust that You see my pain and will restore what has been lost—perhaps even more than before. Let forgiveness unlock the blessings You’ve been waiting to pour out. Turn my captivity, Lord, and lead me into a new season of freedom, healing, and multiplied peace.

    PRAYER
    “And the Lord turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before.”
    JOB 42:10
    Dear Lord, You are a God of restoration. In You alone is the power to restore us from our brokenness and heal us in every way. Your loving touch brings rest to those who seek it, for no other name gives life like Yours. Your grace abounds and overflows, ever ready to fill our hearts with peace and joy. You do not withhold Your blessings, but fulfill us with abundance. Through Your hands, we are transformed into something new and whole again. We thank You for all that You have done to restore us from our sin, loss, and pain. We glorify You now and forevermore! In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1373 - Jarvis Kingston spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the Lord shall be thy reward
    2025/06/14
    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Isaiah 58:8

    Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the Lord shall be thy reward.”
    ISAIAH 58:8

    DEVOTION
    Based on Isaiah 58
    God’s promise in Isaiah 58:8 is tied to living a life of compassion and humility. When we align our hearts with His—caring for the oppressed, breaking injustice, and walking in integrity—He responds with healing, clarity, and protection. Your obedience and kindness aren’t overlooked.

    As you serve and love others, God’s light will shine through you like the dawn after a long night. Healing will rise, righteousness will lead you, and His glory will cover you from behind. You don’t have to chase blessing—it follows those who walk in God’s will. Step forward in faith; He is your guard and guide.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: Lord, You are righteous, faithful, and full of compassion. I praise You for being both my guide and my protector.

    CONFESSION: I admit that I’ve often focused on my own needs while neglecting the hurting around me. Forgive my inward focus and restore a heart like Yours.

    THANKSGIVING: Thank You for the promise that as I walk in obedience and mercy, You will cause light to shine, healing to come, and Your glory to surround me.

    SUPPLICATION: Father, help me to live out Your heart—to loose the chains of injustice, to feed the hungry, and to lift the broken. Let my life reflect Your righteousness. As I serve You and others, let healing spring up within me. Let Your presence go before me and be my rear guard. Let Your light shine through me, bringing hope and peace to those I encounter.

    PRAYER
    “Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the Lord shall be thy reward.”
    ISAIAH 58:8
    Dear Lord, You are the source of our joy and strength. Your light shines on us just as the morning sun slowly rises into the sky. In troubled times we find rest in Your mercy and hope for a better tomorrow. You are dependable, faithful, and ever-present. Give us courage to break free from what binds us - our sin and guilt - and empower us to thrive in the grace of Your love. Help us to show others the beauty of Your kindness so that they may experience Your goodness too. Lord, we thank You for being a faithful and good shepherd; You are with us now and always. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏🏾

  • Episode 1372 - Jarvis Kingston But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles they sh
    2025/06/14
    Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Isaiah 40:30-31

    Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: 31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

    DEVOTION
    Based on Isaiah 40
    Even the strongest among us grow weary. This verse from Isaiah reminds us that human strength has its limits, no matter how great. Youth symbolizes vitality, energy, and endurance, yet even that eventually fades. The truth is—we all reach a point where our strength fails.

    But this sets the stage for the following greater promise: God’s strength never fails. He invites us to stop depending solely on ourselves and lean into Him. In our weakness, He offers unshakable power and renewal. When you feel like collapsing, remember you were never meant to carry it all alone.
    A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
    ADORATION: God, You are the everlasting source of strength. I worship You because You never grow weary or faint.

    CONFESSION: I confess that I have tried to rely on my own energy and willpower. I’ve acted as if I could manage life without Your help.

    THANKSGIVING: Thank You, Lord, for being faithful even when I reach my limits. Thank You that Your strength lifts me when I have none left.

    SUPPLICATION: Father, renew me when I am tired—emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Let me not be discouraged by my weakness but drawn closer to You through it. Help me release the pressure to be self-sufficient and embrace Your sustaining grace. Teach me to rest in Your power and walk in dependence on You daily, trusting that You will carry me through every challenge.

    PRAYER
    “Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength;
    ISAIAH 40:30
    Dear Lord, You are the One who gives us rest when we are weary. When our strength is gone and all we can do is crawl, You lift us up on eagle's wings and make us soar. Your infinite power and grace give us hope in times of need, for You are always there to help us thrive. We are never alone, for You guide us every step of the way. We submit our anxieties to You and receive Your peace. In Your loving arms, we can find rest in Your presence. May we never forget that it is only in You that our souls can find true peace and satisfaction. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏🏾
