30 Days to Confident Faithনমুনা

Devotional:
Prayer is not a desperate attempt to get God’s attention; it’s a bold invitation to step into His presence, knowing He delights to hear His children’s voices. John reminds us that we can approach God confidently—not timidly, not wondering if He cares, but fully believing that He hears us when we pray in alignment with His will.

Too often, we treat prayer like a last resort instead of our first response. But prayer is not a backup plan—it’s the very heartbeat of a believer’s relationship with God. A confident prayer life is not rooted in perfect words; it’s rooted in childlike trust.

I’ll never forget a powerful reminder of this truth through my own son. We were visiting with someone who was desperate for God’s help. They bred puppies to pay their bills and were facing a financial strain because none of them had sold yet. As they shared their struggle, my son—full of bold, innocent faith—simply said,“Let’s pray.”

In his sweet, sincere voice, he asked God to move swiftly and provide for this family by helping them sell their puppies. Within 24 hours, two of the three puppies were sold! We were all amazed, but he wasn’t. He had prayed fully believing that God hears and answers.

That’s the kind of faith God calls us to have when we pray—faith that doesn’t doubt His willingness to move, faith that trusts He delights in answering the cries of His children. God isn’t impressed by eloquent prayers; He’s moved by sincere ones. He bends down to listen when His children speak (Psalm 116:2).

Whether you’re praying for healing, provision, guidance, or strength, come boldly. Your Father is not distant; He loves to respond to the sound of your voice.

Thought to Ponder:
Do I pray with boldness, believing God hears me, or do I hold back as if I’m unsure of His willingness to respond?

Prayer:
Father, thank You for delighting in hearing my prayers. Teach me to pray with childlike faith, fully believing that You hear me and that You are faithful to respond. Help me approach You boldly, trusting that nothing is too big or too small for You. Amen.
