Judges 10:14

You're invited to grow your faith alongside these prayer-themed devotions, where you'll be challenged and inspired to pray—every day—with more courage, love, hope, joy, patience, trust. . .and all of your heart. With each day, you'll be drawn closer to the heavenly Father as you meditate on each truth-filled devotion and open your heart and mind to His very best for you!

This 8-Day devotional is compiled by Dr. Jason Allen, President of Spurgeon College, from a sermon preached by Charles H. Spurgeon. It speaks upon the essentials of the power of prayer that comes through childlike obedience, childlike reverence, childlike trust, and childlike love.

The book of Judges tells the story of Israel’s repeated cycle of turning away from God, facing the consequences, and being rescued by leaders called Judges. This reading plan highlights how God sets a standard, keeps his promises, and patiently calls his people back to him—again and again. Through it all, we see that God never gives up on his people and still desires a relationship with us today.

This plan is a guide to discover God’s story as it unfolds in the Bible - from Genesis through Revelation. Over 12 days, each devotional will introduce one part of that story. Each will list the Scripture passages covering that period, and dates, highlight its main points and briefly summarize the part it plays within the context of God’s redemptive plan. The Bible reading each day should take about 30 minutes.
