    Help Bring Someone Home | Daily Devotional 1630

    Who in your life might need someone to notice they’ve been missing? In today’s episode, Mary Alessi closes out James 5 with verses 19–20 and a reminder that our faith isn’t only about our own walk with God. We’re also called to care for the people around us who may be discouraged, hurt, or slowly drifting away from their faith. We’ll be challenged to notice who’s missing and respond with truth, grace, and compassion instead of judgment or gossip. Sometimes God can use a simple phone call, a conversation over coffee, a prayer, or an encouraging word to remind someone that they are seen, loved, and not alone. Let’s join in prayer and devotion as a community, asking the Holy Spirit to place someone on our hearts and give us the courage to reach out, walk alongside them, and help bring them home with truth and grace.

    Pray In Every Season | Daily Devotional 1629

    Is prayer your first response, or has it become your last resort? In today’s episode, Mary Alessi takes us into James 5:13–18 and reminds us that prayer has a place in every season of life. When we’re suffering, we pray. When we’re joyful, we praise. When we’re sick or struggling, we invite trusted believers to stand with us in faith. Whatever season we find ourselves in, James encourages us to turn toward God, not away from Him. We’ll be reminded that asking others to pray for us isn’t weakness. It’s an act of faith and humility. Like Elijah, we are ordinary people praying to an extraordinary God, and even when we don’t immediately see the answer, we can continue praying and trusting Him with the outcome. Let’s join in prayer and devotion as a community, asking God to make prayer our first response in every season and give us the faith to keep praying, keep trusting, and keep turning toward Him.

    Let Your Yes Mean Yes | Daily Devotional 1628

    Can the people in your life trust that your actions will match your words? In today’s episode, Mary Alessi takes us into James 5:12 and the simple but powerful instruction to let our yes be yes and our no be no. Following Jesus means becoming people of integrity whose words carry weight because we consistently follow through on what we say. We’ll be challenged to examine the commitments we’ve made and consider whether people-pleasing or saying yes too quickly has caused us to overcommit and become unreliable. Sometimes an honest no is kinder than a yes we cannot keep, and wisdom doesn’t require us to make every decision immediately. Let’s join in prayer and devotion as a community, asking God to make us people of integrity whose commitments are thoughtful, whose words can be trusted, and whose actions reflect His faithfulness.

    Be Patient, Your Harvest Is Growing | Daily Devotional 1627

    Are you getting discouraged because you haven’t seen the harvest you’ve been praying for? In today’s episode, Mary Alessi takes us into James 5:7–11 and reminds us to look at seasons of waiting like a farmer waiting for a valuable crop. Just because you can’t see what’s happening above the surface doesn’t mean God isn’t working underneath it. Roots grow before fruit appears, and sometimes the waiting is where God does some of His deepest work in us. We’ll be encouraged to stay rooted, keep planting good seeds, and resist becoming discouraged, bitter, or impatient with others while we wait. Biblical patience isn’t passive. It’s steady faith that continues to pray, serve, obey, and trust God even when the answer hasn’t arrived yet. Let’s join in prayer and devotion as a community, asking God to strengthen our hearts in the waiting and give us the faith to believe that He is working beneath the surface and our harvest is growing.

    When What We Have Has Our Heart | Daily Devotional 1626

    Do you own your possessions, or have your possessions started to own your heart? In today’s episode, Mary Alessi takes us into James 5:1–6 and a powerful warning about money, possessions, and the way we treat others. Having resources isn’t the problem. The challenge comes when wealth becomes our source of security or when success causes us to become dishonest, selfish, or insensitive to the needs of those around us. We’ll be encouraged to examine both how we steward what God has given us and how we treat the people He has placed in our lives. We are called to hold every blessing with open hands, lead with fairness and generosity, keep our word, and remember that God is our ultimate provider. Let’s join in prayer and devotion as a community, asking God to keep our hearts free from greed and pride and help us use every blessing He gives us to honor Him, serve others, and make an eternal difference.

    Tomorrow Isn't Yours | Daily Devotional 1625

    Are you making plans for your future while leaving God out of them? In today’s episode, Gaby Alessi Calatayud takes us into James 4:13–17 and the reminder that while planning is wise, tomorrow is never guaranteed. We can pursue goals, dream about the future, and steward our lives well while still holding every plan with open hands and saying, “If the Lord wills.” We’ll be challenged to surrender our plans, desires, and need for control to God while also responding when He shows us our next step. If we know we need to forgive, apologize, let go, move forward, or step back, we’re called to do more than simply hear God’s Word. We’re called to obey it. Let’s join in prayer and devotion as a community, asking God to search our hearts, give us the courage to obey, and help us live fully surrendered to His plans and His will.

    The Way Up Is Down | Daily Devotional 1624

    Could pride be showing up in your life in ways you haven’t recognized? In today’s episode, Gaby Alessi Calatayud takes us into James 4:10 and the powerful call to humble ourselves before the Lord. True humility isn’t thinking less of ourselves. It’s recognizing that God is God, trusting His wisdom over our own, and surrendering our need to control everything. We’ll be challenged to examine the subtle ways pride can take root in our hearts and learn to say, “Lord, I don’t have to control everything. I don’t have all the answers. Your way is better than mine.” When we trust that God sees us, loves us, and knows what is best, we no longer have to fight to elevate ourselves. Let’s join in prayer and devotion as a community, asking God to reveal areas of pride in our hearts, lead us toward humility, and help us grow in spiritual maturity as we surrender our way for His.

    Submit And Resist | Daily Devotional 1623

    Have you been feeling distant from God and wondering how to find your way back? In today’s episode, Gaby Alessi Calatayud takes us into James 4:7–8 and the powerful invitation to submit, resist, and draw near. When we surrender to God, we’re strengthened to resist what pulls us away from Him. And when we choose to draw near to Him, we’re given an incredible promise: He will draw near to us. We’ll be reminded that God isn’t waiting for us to fix everything before coming to Him. Whether you feel distant, unworthy, or unsure of your next step, you can seek Him right where you are through prayer, Scripture, repentance, or simply spending time in His presence. Let’s join in prayer and devotion as a community, choosing to submit to God, resist the enemy, and take one intentional step closer to our Heavenly Father today. Tap HERE to send us a text!
