Why Do the Faithful Suffer?

Job 1:1 - 2:10 As we turn the final page of Genesis, we find ourselves at a pivotal moment in our journey through Scripture. We've witnessed the grand narrative of creation, the fall of humanity, and God's relentless pursuit to redeem a people for Himself. Now, we step into a new chapter - the book of Job - that will challenge our understanding of faith, suffering, and the very nature of God Himself.

God will provide for you!! Believe him.

God loves so much that he knows what you need. Don't worry that he is supernatural. Walk by faith and not by sight.

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 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.

Tim Allen Opens Up About His Journey Through the Word of God

Tim Allen has opened up about his journey through the Word of God. The popular actor and comedian shared what he has learned while reading through the Bible. Watch the short but powerful clip to hear the actor discuss the Bible, what he learned and which book made the biggest impact on him.

Tim Allen has been one of the biggest names in comedy and all of Hollywood for decades. He first came to most people’s attention back in the 1990s with the beloved sitcom “Home Improvement.” He has since gone on to experience continued success, starring in award-winning blockbuster movies and television programs, including the iconic “Toy Story” film franchise, “The Santa Clause” movies and the shows “Last Man Standing” and “Shifting Gears.”

In a clip posted on YouTube, Tim mentioned that he had taken on a different kind of project, and this one had nothing to do with the movies, TV or being on stage telling jokes. Instead, Tim said that he had begun reading through the Bible. At the time the clip was recorded, he shared that he had recently finished The Old Testament and had just made it into the New Testament.

Tim said that after he first started reading God’s Word, he was surprised to find that his initial thoughts about the Bible were proven incorrect.

“The Bible is not what I thought it was,” he admitted. “There’s very little preachy stuff.”

Later in the clip, he added the advice he received before he started his journey through the Bible, and how he read through it.

“Let the words come to you. Do not look for meaning. It will come to you,” Tim said. “And all of that, all of that has been life-changing.”

In a social media post, Tim gave an update on his progress, noting that he has now read through the Bible.

“Finished the entire Bible it’s been a 13 month word by word page by page no skimming journey,” the actor and comedian wrote. “Humbled, enlightened and amazed at what I read and what I learned. I will rest and meditate on so much. I will begin it again.”

Hebrews 4:12 “For the word of God is living and full of power, and is sharper than any two-edged sword, cutting through and making a division even of the soul and the spirit, the bones and the muscles, and quick to see the thoughts and purposes of the heart.”

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.

Brandon Lake’s Powerful and Uplifting Message for Christians

Brandon Lake shared a powerful and uplifting message for all Christians. The popular Christian music artist will have you fired up and encouraged after listening to moving words directed at followers of Jesus Christ. Watch the short but impactful clip to listen to what he had to say.

Christians are called to be fishers of men, to share the Gospel and make disciples for Jesus Christ. Of course, we all know that that is much easier said than done. Causally bringing up Jesus Christ and the topic of faith in a conversation can be challenging at times, especially when you’re not with a receptive audience.

But it was never said that being a Christian would be easy. In fact, being a Christian can be challenging in some instances. Christians are not called to become followers and then keep the Gospel to themselves. Sharing the Good News with others is something we are all tasked with doing.

Even then, whenever we run into people who aren’t open to hearing about Christ, it can be discouraging, and we might even shy away from ever mentioning His name in conversations with others. If that describes you, Brandon Lake shared some uplifting and powerful words during a concert that will encourage and challenge you to continue sharing the life-changing, life-saving message of Jesus Christ.

“Don’t be afraid to carry the light and the truth of the Gospel into the darkest places; that is what you were called to do,” he said. “That’s what He made you to do. You are a disciple filled with the Holy Ghost. If you’ve accepted Jesus, He’s filled you with His Spirit.”

He added that, since we have Christ in us, there is no reason to fear anything.

“You don’t need to be afraid to walk into a room full of darkness ‘cause you carry the light,” he said.

Isaiah 41:10 “Have no fear, for I am with you; do not be looking about in trouble, for I am your God; I will give you strength, yes, I will be your helper; yes, my true right hand will be your support.”
