Matthew 28:20b Prayer // Living Like Jesus Is With You Always

Take a few quiet minutes to pray through Matthew 28:20b.In the final words of Matthew’s Gospel, Jesus gives his followers this promise: “And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”This promise is not only for the first disciples. It is for every follower of Jesus. It is for the whole church. It is for you.In this prayer episode, we confess the ways we forget Jesus is near, the ways we worry like we are alone, and the ways we run after things that cannot satisfy. Then we remember the truth: there is nowhere we can go where he is not with us.This Month's Memory Verse:“And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”— 📖 Matthew 28:20bMemorize Scripture with Us:Discover the easy button for Scripture memory through Dwell Differently's resources.Support the showKEEP UP WITH ALL THE THINGSWebsite: DwellDifferently.comSocials: @dwelldifferently | @nataliejoyabbott | @verabethschmitzNewsletter — get devotional content along with new projects!Facebook Group — join the conversation about God’s Word!

July Prayer Episode | LUKE 18:27

Take a few quiet minutes to pray through Luke 18:27.This month’s verse reminds us that what is impossible with man is possible with God. And in context, Jesus is speaking about the most impossible thing of all: salvation.We cannot save ourselves. We cannot earn God’s favor. We cannot justify ourselves before him. But Jesus has done what we never could.In this prayer episode, we confess our sin and self-reliance, thank Jesus for his perfect life, death, and resurrection, and rest in the impossible salvation he has made possible for us.This Month's Memory Verse:"Jesus replied, 'What is impossible with man is possible with God.''📖 Luke 18:27Memorize Scripture with Us:Discover the easy button for Scripture memory through Dwell Differently's resources.Support the showKEEP UP WITH ALL THE THINGSWebsite: DwellDifferently.comSocials: @dwelldifferently | @nataliejoyabbott | @verabethschmitzNewsletter — get devotional content along with new projects!Facebook Group — join the conversation about God’s Word!
