JOIN US ON EASTER!

Saturday 1/10/26 - Established in What God Is Doing

By the end of Ruth’s story, Naomi is no longer empty-handed, striving or asking what comes next. She is holding a promise she never planned for.

What God began with release and obedience, He completed with stability and rest. Not rushed or forced. But established.

Today, we come before God to settle our hearts. To trust that what He has started does not need our constant anxiety to sustain it. To rest in the truth that God knows how to finish what He begins.
1. The Posture (Rest Without Anxiety)
“Be still, and know that I am God.” (Psalm 46:10)

Jesus, I come before You and choose to be still. I bring my thoughts, my concerns, and my expectations under Your authority.

I release the need to constantly measure where I am. I release the pressure to hurry what You are building.

I declare that You are in control. You are ahead of me. You are fully aware. I rest my heart in You.

Jesus, I lift my voice to You right now.
I fix my attention on You.
I acknowledge Your presence with me.

You are holy.
You are powerful.
You are worthy of all my praise.

I magnify You above every distraction.
I exalt You as my heart finds rest in You.
I lift You higher than anything competing for my focus.

You are the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Your power has not diminished.
Your faithfulness has not failed.

I worship You with my whole heart.
I worship You with expectation.
I worship You because You are God.

Be exalted in this moment.
Be honored in my life.
Receive my praise today.
2. The Assurance (Trusting God’s Timing)
Lord, I acknowledge that You are the God of seasons and times. Nothing in my life is random. Nothing is overlooked.

You are never early.
You are never late.
You are always faithful.

I submit my timeline to You. I lay down my expectations of how and when things should unfold.

I release my assumptions.
I release my deadlines.
I release my need to know what comes next.

I refuse to run ahead of You in my flesh. I refuse to lag behind You in fear. I bring my pace into alignment with Your Spirit. I choose to walk with You, step by step.

You are ordering my steps even when I do not see it.
You are shaping my future even when it feels quiet.
You are working in ways that are deeper than what is visible.

I rest in Your timing. I yield to Your leading. I trust the season

You have me in right now.
3. The Confidence (Established, Not Anxious)
“And the women said unto Naomi… a son hath been born…” (Ruth 4:14–15)

Jesus, I come to You with gratitude for Your faithfulness. Thank You for staying with me through every part of this process.

Thank You for not leaving things unfinished. Thank You for being patient with me while You work.

Help me to rest in the confidence that You are steady, even when I feel unsure. Remind my heart that You are not anxious about my future.

When questions rise, steady me. When progress feels slow, reassure me.

Teach me to trust You in the quiet parts of the journey. Teach me to rely on You when there is nothing to fix or figure out.

I place what I cannot yet see into Your hands. I give You what is still forming and unfinished.

Let Your peace continue to settle my heart. Let assurance replace the doubts I sometimes wrestle with.

I remain here with You, confident that You are at work and that You are faithful to complete what You have begun. I remain anchored in You. I stand secure in Your care.
4. The Covering (Placing Life Under God’s Authority)
“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.” (Psalm 91:1)

Jesus, I come to You now asking for Your covering over my life. Cover my mind with clarity and peace. Keep confusion from settling where You have been working.

Cover my heart and guard it from distraction. Protect what You have been forming within me.

As I move forward, help me stay sensitive to Your Spirit. Keep me aware of Your voice and responsive to Your leading.

When life becomes busy again, remind me of Your nearness. When pressure returns, help me remain anchored in You.

I bring my steps, my decisions, and my responses under Your authority. Guide me as I walk this out day by day.

I place myself under Your care. I remain under Your covering. I trust You to keep what has been entrusted to You.

Friday 1/9/26 - God Is Not Done With What’s Left

Naomi came back to Bethlehem with very little. No husband. No sons. No resources. No plan.

What she did have felt insignificant. But God never works from what is missing. He works from what remains.

What looked like the end of her story became the beginning of a legacy she never imagined.

Today, we come before God trusting that what remains in our hands is enough for Him to work with. We are not asking Him to restore what was lost. We are surrendering what is left.
1. The Posture (Surrender Without Fear)
“But we have this treasure in earthen vessels…” (2 Corinthians 4:7)

Jesus, I come before You with humility.
I acknowledge my need for You, and I place my trust in You.

I stand here because of Your grace, not my own strength.
I bring what I have, and I give it to You.

I recognize that You have been with me every step of the way.
You have carried me this far, and I trust You to carry me forward.

I open my hands to You.
I release control.
I place what remains in Your care.
2. The Trust (Believing God Can Build From Here)
“He restoreth my soul…” (Psalm 23:3)

Lord, I release the belief that it is too late.
I release the fear that I missed my moment.

I refuse to believe that loss disqualifies me from purpose.
I refuse to believe that what remains is insufficient.

You are the God who restores, redeems, and rebuilds.
You do not waste pain.
You do not abandon unfinished work.

I trust that You are able to build something holy from what I still have.
3. The Surrender (Placing What’s Left in God’s Hands)
“And she took it up, and went into the city…” (Ruth 2:18)

Jesus, I place what remains in Your hands.
My faith.
My obedience.
My willingness to keep moving.

I surrender control over how the story unfolds.
I surrender the timeline.
I surrender the outcome.

I choose faithfulness over frustration.
I choose trust over regret.

I am not defined by what I lost.
I am positioned by what I surrender.
4. The Seal (Confidence in God’s Completion)
“He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it…” (Philippians 1:6)

Lord, I seal this prayer with confidence.
You are not finished with me.
You are not finished with my story.

I declare that You are working even now.
Quietly. Intentionally. Faithfully.

You will take what remains and make it matter.
You will bring purpose from places that felt empty.

I rest in Your ability to complete what You began.

I seal this prayer in the name of Jesus.
The name that redeems what is left and turns it into legacy.

Amen.

Thursday 1/8/26 - Handfuls on Purpose

In Sunday’s message, we were reminded that God does not wait until the end of our story to show His care. While Ruth was still gleaning, provision was already being placed in her path. What looked ordinary was actually intentional.

God had gone ahead of her. Grace was already waiting. Even in a season marked by loss and uncertainty, God was quietly supplying what was needed, one handful at a time.

Today, we come before God asking Him to open our eyes. We invite Him to help us recognize His provision in the middle of our work, to trust His care in small things, and to rest in the truth that nothing He gives is accidental.
1. The Posture (Awareness & Gratitude)
“Give us this day our daily bread.” (Matthew 6:11)

Jesus, I come before You with a thankful heart.
I slow my spirit and quiet my thoughts so I can see clearly.

I acknowledge that You are my Provider.
Not just in abundance, but in daily supply.

I thank You for what You have already placed in my path.
I thank You for what I overlooked.
I thank You for what sustained me when I didn’t realize how much I needed it.

I choose gratitude over anxiety.
I choose trust over striving.

Open my eyes to see Your hand at work around me today.
2. The Trust (Receiving What God Is Providing)
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” (Psalm 23:1)

Father, I release the need to control how provision comes.
I lay down the pressure to figure everything out at once.

Like Ruth, I am willing to gather faithfully where You have placed me.
I will not despise small beginnings.
I will not overlook what You are doing quietly.

I trust that You are intentional in what You allow and what You give.
Nothing in my life today is random.
Nothing You provide is careless or late.

Teach me to trust without rushing ahead.
I will gather what You provide with humility and faith.
3. The Recognition (Seeing God’s Intentional Care)
And let fall also some of the handfuls of purpose for her…” (Ruth 2:16)

Lord, I acknowledge that You are actively at work in my life.
You are not distant. You are not passive. You are intentional.

I declare that provision is already present in my path.
What I am receiving today is not random.
It has been placed here by Your hand.

I reject the lie that says I am behind, forgotten, or lacking.
I refuse to measure Your faithfulness by what I cannot see yet.

I recognize Your care in what sustains me now.
I receive the grace for today without fear of tomorrow.

Even in the middle of the process, You are supplying.
Even before the outcome is clear, You are providing.

I stand confident that nothing You give is accidental.
4. The Seal (Resting in God’s Care)
And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:19)

Jesus, I thank You that I am not forgotten.
I am not overlooked.
I am not walking alone.

I declare that You are supplying what I need for today.
Not all at once, but faithfully.
Not accidentally, but on purpose.

I rest in Your care.
I walk forward with confidence.
I trust the Provider more than the provision.

Amen.

Wednesday 1/7/26 - Back to Judah

Leaving Moab is only part of the journey. Release creates movement, but direction matters.

Naomi did not wander aimlessly. She turned her feet toward Judah. Toward praise. Toward the place where God had begun to move again.

Today is about reorientation. Not just what you let go of, but where you are going next. This is a deliberate return to the place of praise.
1. The Posture (Returning to Praise)
Yet Thou art holy, O Thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.” (Psalm 22:3)

Jesus, I come before You with intention today. I choose praise, not because everything is perfect, but because You are worthy.

I acknowledge You as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. You reign above my emotions, my circumstances, and my uncertainty.

I lift my eyes off what failed and fix them on the One who remains faithful. You are holy. You are present. You are near.

I offer You praise not as a reaction, but as a decision. I return to Judah. I return to worship.

I open my mouth and my heart to You. Dwell here. Abide here. Rule here.
2. The Turning (Leaving Moab)
Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord…” (2 Corinthians 6:17)

Lord, I recognize the places I stayed too long. The compromises I made out of survival instead of trust.

Moab was never meant to be home. It was temporary provision, not permanent purpose.

So today, I turn. I step out of agreement with mindsets that kept me stuck. I walk away from patterns that drained my praise.

I renounce survival thinking. I renounce spiritual numbness. I renounce settling for less than what You promised.

I choose obedience over comfort. I choose faith over familiarity.

I am not going back. I am moving forward.
3. The Alignment (Walking Toward Where God Is Moving)
When Naomi heard that the Lord had come to the aid of His people…” (Ruth 1:6)

Jesus, I thank You that You are already at work ahead of me. You are not calling me to emptiness. You are calling me toward provision.

I align my steps with what You are doing, not what I feel. I move toward the place where You are feeding Your people again.

I may not see the full picture yet, but I trust the direction. I walk by faith and not by sight.

Order my steps. Guide my decisions. Lead me into the place where Your presence is active and alive.
4. The Seal (Confidence in the Journey)
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord…” (Psalm 37:23)

Jesus, I seal this prayer with confidence. I am not wandering. I am being led.

I declare that my steps today matter. My obedience matters. My praise matters.

I trust You with the process. I trust You with the timing. I trust You with the outcome.

I will not return to Moab. I will not abandon Judah.

I seal this prayer in the name that leads me forward. The name that goes before me. The name of Jesus.

Amen.

Tuesday 1/6/26 - The Kiss of Release

We are entering into a time of spiritual separation. Just as Orpah had to kiss the past goodbye so Ruth could move into the future, we have to make a decision to release the weight we were never meant to carry.

We are stepping out of agreement with the pain of yesterday and into agreement with the Word of God.

Clear your mind. This is not a ritual; this is a release.
1. The Posture (Worship & Awe)
“Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise.” (Psalm 100:4)

Lord God, I step into Your presence right now. I honor You as the Alpha and the Omega, the Author and the Finisher of my faith. You are the same yesterday, today, and forever.

I magnify You above every situation in my life. You are high and lifted up. You are the Sovereign God, and there is none like You.

I declare that You are good, You are faithful, and Your mercy endures forever.

I silence every voice that is not Yours. I command my soul to be still and know that You are God. I set my attention on You.

I am not here to rush; I am here to receive. Have Your way in this moment.
2. The Release (Severing the Past)
“Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing...” (Isaiah 43:18-19)

Father, in the name of Jesus, I come to this altar of prayer to make an exchange. You said to cast all my cares upon You because You care for me.

So right now, I release the grip.

I refuse to carry the heavy luggage of yesterday into the promise of tomorrow.

I release the disappointment.
I release the offense.
I release the "what ifs" and the "should haves."

I give it the Kiss of Release. I bid farewell to the pain that has tried to define this season. I am not looking back like Lot’s wife; I am setting my face like a flint toward where You are leading.

I break every soul tie with the trauma of my past.
I plead the Blood of Jesus over my mind and my memory.

I declare that the past has no authority over my future.

It is finished. It is released. It is under the Blood.
3. The Renaming (Declaring Identity)
“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” (2 Corinthians 5:17)

Lord, I reject the name "Mara." I refuse to be defined by bitterness or brokenness. I break agreement with every lie the enemy has whispered to me in the dark.

I am not what happened to me.
I am not what I lost.
I am not the mistake I made.

I stand on the authority of Your Word.
I am the Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.
I am Chosen, Royal, and Set Apart.

I am the Head and not the Tail.
I am an Overcomer by the blood of the Lamb and the word of my testimony.

I speak to my spirit: Rise up.

I put on the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness.
I will walk in the newness of life.

I agree with the Report of the Lord.
4. The Seal (Confirmation)
Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.” (Philippians 1:6)

I thank You, Lord, that the work is done. I thank You for the peace that passes all understanding guarding my heart and my mind.

I declare that I am walking out of this prayer lighter than I came in.

The chains are broken. The weight is lifted. The atmosphere has shifted.

I seal this prayer in the only name that has power. The name above every name.
The name that demons tremble at.
In the mighty name of Jesus.

Amen!
