Today's devotional is all about: Trading What If's for the Power of Prayer

"Call to me, and I will answer you." (Jeremiah 33:3) We have a promise that He hears us: "You will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you." (Jeremiah 29:12)

Did you know there is Power in Prayer?

Even scientists and medical journals say that Prayer speeds healing, lowers heart rate, and relieves stress, but a life of prayer goes way beyond these simple health benefits.

If prayer is something you'd like to make a habit, or you just don't know where to start, today's show guides you through:

7 Different Ways to Quiet the What If's and Begin Practicing the Power of Prayer

If praying is new to you, don't overthink it, and don't think you have to be perfect to talk to God.

He wants to meet you right where you are. He is a loving Father.

Here are some simple ways to pray and even make it a habit.

• Pray the Our Father.

• Tell God how grateful you are.

• Tell God what you need.

• Pray His Word back to Him.

• Write in a journal what you're praying for and all the prayers He's answered, because He'll do it again.

• Pray expectantly knowing that your Father in Heaven loves you.

• Look for prayer moments in your life.

Pick a time of day and a place in your house where you spend time with God, and make it a daily routine.

>>>Only God can turn what if's into peace and powerfully steady the mind.

Sometimes we forget that we are children of God. So here's a loving reminder...

Listen to Good, Good, Father By, Chris Tomlin

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iBmwwwiHrOk

I want to pray for you to trade the worry of what if for the power of Prayer.

Dear God,

You are a good, good Father. Quiet the what if's and any negative thoughts from our hearts and replace them with the power of your presence.

We have You as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul. Without you we fall apart.

Speak to our hearts, Father, we need you.

Today we trade the what if's for the power of prayer.

In Jesus' name, amen.

There is power in the name of Jesus!

Praying says, "I can't God, but I believe You will."

A Pastor that I have listened to for years says, fight every battle on your knees, and you'll win every time.

Isn't that so good...

I know you're going to find so much faith-filled value and inspiration from this episode. Tune in and enjoy!

I'd love to hear from you.

I've been hearing a lot of questions from Christian women lately due to the pandemic.

Questions like…

• How do I stay strong in my faith?

• How do I fit a workout in and take care of myself with kids at home and how do I stay motivated?

• What do I do with my business goals, how do I pivot and prepare for the future?

I'm not going to sugar coat it, we are living in uncertain times and things are changing every day.

As women of God, we need to stand firm in our faith more than ever.

I am amazed by the outpouring of the Christian community banding together in prayer, and seeing it on the news warms my soul.

I'm watching women, like my Strong Confident His guest today, stepping up and serving their families, community and businesses in powerful faith-filled ways.

If you need prayer today, your hope restored and could use some God-led motivation, we're here to serve you.

In this episode, my guest Michelle Myers form She Works HIS Way, shares three ways we can show up and meet the day in the strength of God in our:

• Faith

• Fitness

• Finances

Tune into today's episode and:

• You'll get prayed for

• You'll be encouraged

• You'll get action steps you can take today

If you're wondering how to do it all, and at home: working from home, homeschooling, trying to stay fit at home, it's a lot and above all – keeping the level of anxiety down and your belief in God strong, join us!

I know you're going to find so much faith-filled value and inspiration from this episode.

I'd love to hear from you.

I want you to fulfill your goals and live out everything good that God has planned for you, so if you were thinking of quitting today...

Don't you dare, don't give up on you, don't do it!

Maybe today you're at your wits end and your goals feel hopeless, but I want to encourage you to wipe the slate clean and start over in this moment in God.

The word tells us, not to look at the past, because God will do a new thing.

"But forget all that—it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?" – Isaiah 43:19

GOD WILL DO A NEW THING!

Now you might not see the results of your hard work or your prayers right away, but I can promise you this, being faithful pays off.

Action Steps:

• Every decision to believe and act in faith is a step toward God's best version of you.
• Don't walk away from her today.
• Think of who you want to be and make choices to be her.

I bet you're thinking...but what about when I don't feel like it?

So here's our answer:

For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, – 2 Timothy 1:6

Paul told Timothy this, because Timothy was a young preacher and he was helping him deal with staying the course when you don't feel like it. Timothy had doubts and fears. He was just like us.

We have to stir ourselves up in the Lord, we have to fan the flame of the gift that God has given us.

Don't you just love that? Oh so good!

Power Up! I want you to take action.

Please SUBSCRIBE to the Strong Confident His Podcast and head to social media to let me know how God is doing a new thing in your life under my social posts. Tell me how you're choosing to fan the flame of the gift God has given you?

God only made ONE you, friend. He has work for you to do!

Don't give up, don't quit, don't give in.

In Him, you've got this!

Remember You are Strong. Confident His.

From my heart to yours, God Bless,

For as long as I can remember, I always felt like I didn't quite Have you ever felt that way?

Over the years, I've tried to locate why I started having these feelings.

I think it was a combination of things…

• On the first day of 8th grade, at a very hormonal time, I was told I was fat.

At that moment, my identity was tied to the number on the scale.

• I began to live with the notion that if I weighed less, I'd be accepted or somehow better and this began an unhealthy shame over my weight.
• Around this same time, I was made fun of for being poor and it made me feel less than.

But God healed me!

Now, my identity is securely in Christ, and the numbers aren't my report card anymore!

Even now, as I've pivoted in my career, people constantly say, you're too old, and it's too late.

Again, with the numbers…

I reject that thinking! And, I hope you do too.

God in His overwhelming love has shown me the world's opinions are not my Jesus-loving truth!

In Him, I have all I need.

Doesn't the world try to use numbers to dictate our beauty and confidence: age, weight, salary, clothing size, and even zip code?

But here's the truth: beauty and confidence don't come from numbers they come from knowing who you are in Christ.

• Do you struggle with numbers?
• Do you think you'd be happier if you wore this size, or weighed this much or if you were this age?
• What if today was the last day you allowed that number to define you or be your report card?
• We give numbers too much power and the enemy uses them to control us even shame us.
• Take your power back today…turn to God for your worth and choose to see yourself through His eyes.

Can we pinky promise That today we'll trade the stronghold of this number ____________ for the beautiful confidence of who we are in Christ.

Here's our faith fuel for the day:

I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. – Psalm 139:14 ESV

Remember you are, Strong. Confident. His.

From my heart to yours, God Bless,

• Around this same time, I was made fun of for being poor and it made me feel less than.

But God healed me!

Now, my identity is securely in Christ, and the numbers aren’t my report card anymore!

Even now, as I’ve pivoted in my career, people constantly say, you’re too old, and it’s too late. 

Again, with the numbers…

I reject that thinking! And, I hope you do too.

God in His overwhelming love has shown me the world’s opinions are not my Jesus-loving truth!

In Him, I have all I need.

Doesn’t the world try to use numbers to dictate our beauty and confidence: age, weight, salary, clothing size, and even zip code?

But here’s the truth: beauty and confidence don’t come from numbers they come from knowing who you are in Christ.

• Do you struggle with numbers?
• Do you think you’d be happier if you wore this size, or weighed this much or if you were this age?
• What if today was the last day you allowed that number to define you or be your report card?
• We give numbers too much power and the enemy uses them to control us even shame us.
• Take your power back today…turn to God for your worth and choose to see yourself through His eyes. 

Can we pinky promise That today we’ll trade the stronghold of this number ____________ for the beautiful confidence of who we are in Christ. 

Here’s our faith fuel for the day:

I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. – Psalm 139:14 ESV

Remember you are, Strong. Confident. His.

From my heart to yours, God Bless,
