Your Nightly Prayer: Evening Prayers for Christians

Grace for When You Mess Up Again


Listen Later

Sometimes, the hardest part about grace isn’t believing it exists—it’s believing it applies to you. We can get stuck in cycles of self-condemnation, feeling too broken or too guilty for God’s love to reach us. But the truth of Lamentations 3:22 is that His steadfast love and endless mercy are not contingent on our perfection. In this evening prayer and devotional, Amanda Idleman shares how God spoke into her season of anxiety, depression, and marriage struggles with a simple but life-changing message: “Accept my grace. It’s enough for even this.” Grace takes humility—both to receive it for ourselves and to extend it to others. And once we do, we find freedom from the crushing weight of guilt and shame.

No matter how many times you’ve fallen short, His mercy is greater. Accepting grace is the first step toward healing and living in the hope-filled future God desires for you.

Tonight’s Scripture: Lamentations 3:22 (ESV)

“The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases; his mercies never come to an end.”

🙏 Your Nightly Prayer

God,
Thank You for Your great love and unending mercy. Silence the lies that say I’m too far gone for You to redeem. Help me to lay down my pride, forgive myself, and trust that Your grace is enough for me. Equip me to walk forward with strength, living in the freedom and joy You offer.
Amen.

🧘 Three Things to Meditate Upon

  1. What lies or self-condemning thoughts keep you from accepting God’s mercy?

  2. Remember: His mercy covers all sin—yes, even yours.

  3. What healthy steps could help you guard against recurring struggles? Consider seeking counseling, accountability, or new habits.
