    458 Praying Through Psalm 53: Folly, Fear, and the God Who Restores

    Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today! How do you declare "God is on the throne" when the evidence around you screams the opposite? Can you find spiritual victory when your logic and emotions are railing against this truth? In this devotional on Psalm 53, we walk through a "revision" of Psalm 14— a Maskil that shifts our focus from the covenant name of Yahweh to Elohim, the Creator and Judge of all humanity. We confront the paralyzing reality of "great fear where no fear had been" and explore how the enemy uses the brokenness of this world to mask the spiritual victory God has already won. We move past the surface-level tragedies to the deeper truth: that God has already scattered the bones of those who encamp against you. Join host Jaime Hampton on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a session of spiritual recalibration. If you are exhausted by the heavy news cycle, or if your mind is railing against the promise of God’s sovereignty, this episode offers a battle plan for your thoughts. Come ready to "disconnect the logic," destroy speculations, and stand firm on the invisible, unshakeable reality of God’s Kingdom.

    457 Biblical Marriage Advice for Hard Seasons with Dana Che

    Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today! Does a marriage fall apart in a single moment of crisis, or does it slowly wear thin in the "long middle"? This week, Dana Che, host of the Rebuilding Us podcast, joins Jaime for an honest conversation on redeeming broken marriages based on her new book, Tried and True: Marriage Advice from 12 Imperfect Biblical Couples. In this episode, Dana shares her powerful personal testimony of marrying at 18, navigating infidelity, and how God transformed their hearts of stone into hearts of flesh. She unpacks the spiritual danger of "hiding" from your spouse—like Adam and Eve—and offers practical advice for women who feel spiritually mismatched or disconnected from their husbands. Dana also tackles the controversial stance that children should not come first in the family hierarchy, explaining why prioritizing the marriage covenant is actually the best gift you can give your kids to prevent "gray divorce." You’ll walk away with a fresh perspective on how to pray for your husband rather than against him to control outcomes, and how to trust Jesus as the Mediator when you feel too weary to pray. Visit danache.com to connect with Dana and pick up a copy of her new book at triedandtruemarriagebook.com. Tried and True explores the real-life struggles of biblical figures to help you navigate the "long middle" of marriage and reconnect spiritually. While there, you can also access her free 5-day devotional to help kickstart spiritual intimacy in your home, and be sure to listen to her podcast, Rebuilding Us, on the LifeAudio network.

    456 Praying Through Psalm 52: Flourishing Like an Olive Tree When Evil Boasts

    Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today!How do you find your footing when calculated evil leaves a trail of destruction in its wake? Can a soul truly flourish while carrying the heavy burden of collateral damage? In this devotional on Psalm 52, we confront one of the darkest moments in David’s life—the massacre at Nob. We explore the aftermath of Doeg the Edomite’s "sharp razor" betrayal, which led to the slaughter of 85 priests and an entire town, leaving David wrestling with the crushing weight of responsibility for their deaths. We move beyond the horror to examine David’s defiant choice of faith: the stark contrast between the "boastful wickedness" of the enemy and David’s self-declaration as a "green olive tree" in the house of God. Join host Jaime Hampton on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a session of deep restoration. If you are navigating the fallout of someone else’s betrayal, or if you are struggling with guilt over pain you feel you caused, this episode offers a sanctuary for your soul.

    455 The Lost Episodes: The One Component of Prayer Nearly All of Us Neglect

    Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today! In Part 2 of the special "lost episodes" recovered from the 2018 archives, Jaime and Alana take us back to the very beginning—Episode 2 of the show—to tackle the single most neglected component of a healthy prayer life: Confession If the word "confession" stirs up feelings of fear, shame, or hesitation, this conversation flips the script, redefining the act not as a punishment, but as the essential pathway to profound spiritual healing. The hosts deconstruct the stigma around admitting our faults, illustrating how keeping "short accounts" with God is actually the key to maintaining a clear and open line of communication. Drawing from the wisdom of James 5:16, they explore how unconfessed sin acts as a "prayer block" and why the Bible links confession directly to restoration. They candidly discuss the discomfort of vulnerability, the "crumpled paper" analogy of how sin builds invisible barriers, and the often-overlooked power of corporate repentance to bring unity to the body of Christ.

    454 Praying Through Psalm 51: Restoring the Joy of Salvation

    Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today!Can a heart stained by the worst kinds of betrayal ever truly be restored?? When the world demands justice, does God offer a different way back? In this devotional on Psalm 51, we step into the wreckage of King David’s greatest failure—the affair with Bathsheba and the murder of Uriah. We move beyond a simple apology to uncover the specific Hebrew anatomy of David's confession: Pesha (rebellion), Avon (twistedness), and Hata'ah (missing the mark). We explore the shocking reality that under Mosaic Law, David should have faced the death penalty, yet he boldly asks God to "create a way" where the law offered none. Join host Jaime Hampton on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a session of radical vulnerability. If you’ve ever felt like your mistakes have disqualified you from God’s presence, or that you are not worthy due to your past mistakes, this episode offers a roadmap from guilt to gladness. Come ready to run toward the Father who doesn't just want your perfection, but your broken and contrite heart.

    453 The Lost Episodes: What Does it Mean to Be A Praying Christian Woman in the 21st Century?

    Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today!In this special "lost episode" recovered from the 2018 archives, Alana and Jaime return to the Praying Christian Women Podcast’s origin story to deconstruct the myth of the "perfect" prayer warrior.  If you have ever felt that your busy schedule disqualifies you from a deep spiritual life, this conversation flips the script, redefining prayer not as a quiet-time luxury, but as the "real work" that fuels every other task. Drawing from the imagery of the Proverbs 31 woman, the hosts explore how to trade defensive, reactive panic for a proactive, offensive prayer strategy. They candidly discuss the struggle of the "inner critic," the challenge of mental focus, and the beauty of eucharisteo—finding power in thanksgiving.  Whether you are a seasoned intercessor or someone just trying to find five minutes of peace, tune in to discover that you don't need a perfect quiet time to be a powerful intercessor. Come exactly as you are, and let’s learn how to trade the heavy burden of religious duty for a relationship that truly changes everything.

    452 Praying Through Psalm 50: God Is Judge, Witness, and Prosecutor

    Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today!What if the "wicked" standing trial in God’s courtroom aren't the godless, but the religious? What if the prosecution’s case is built not on your sins of ignorance, but on your acts of hypocrisy? In this devotional on Psalm 50, we enter a divine lawsuit where God acts as the Judge, Witness, then Prosecutor. We move beyond the text to uncover the Hebrew context of the "wicked"—covenant members who recite God's statutes while secretly harboring deceit. We explore why God rejects the "cattle on a thousand hills" to demand something far more costly: a "sacrifice of thanksgiving." Jaime also shares a candid personal reflection on the specific accusation of slandering "your own mother's son," connecting it to the heartbreaking political and spiritual fractures we see in the world today. She challenges us to examine our own role in that division—whether we are building unity or "letting our mouths loose in evil." Join host Jaime Hampton on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a session of tender hope. If you’ve been disheartened by discord among believers or caught in the trap of performative faith, this episode offers a path toward true integrity. Come ready to be examined by the Judge who desires your heart, not just your habits.
