Go North

Sometimes we keep praying about a situation that God has already given us an answer to. We go in circles hoping for a different direction or different answer; one that is easier or more comfortable. Delaying obedience is disobedience. Be bold. Take a step of faith today and do the thing that God has been telling you to do. He's got your back!

"You have circled this mountain long enough. Now turn north..." -Deuteronomy 2:3

God's got your back!

When you feel like everything is going wrong and all of your friends have abandoned you, remember that God loves you. He's got your back!


So be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and do not panic before them. For the lord your God will personally go ahead of you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you.” (Deuteronomy 31:6 NLT)

Protect Me From Me

When we pray for protection, it doesn't always have to be against an enemy or situation. Sometimes we just need to pray protection against ourselves. 


For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. (Romans 7:15 ESV)


But you, O Lord, are a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head. (Psalm 3:3 ESV)

Calm me

Whether you are struggling with fear, anxiety, temptation, frustration, sadness, overwhelming emotions, or just a really bad day, remember that the same Jesus that calmed the raging storm can calm your raging heart. 


"...He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world." (1 John 4:4 ESV)
