Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to Isaiah 30:15

If you feel burdened and weary this week, receive this invitation to slow down and be with Jesus, who doesn’t demand more of you but in¬stead asks you to lay things down. Who calls you not to passivity but to actively rest in who He says He is. And to remain there, today, because He who calls you is faithful.

This devotional journey is an invitation to go deeper, not just into God’s Word, but into God’s heart. Over the next five days, you will explore what Scripture teaches about God’s promises and how His timing, surrender, obedience, and faithfulness shape the way those promises unfold in your life. These readings are designed not only to inform your mind, but to form your spirit—helping you move from simply knowing God’s promises to living with confidence in them.

Join us on this journey to deepen your relationship with Jesus. This is part one of eight in the "Jesus, I Need You" series by Thistlebend Ministries. See also Jesus, I Need You (companion prayer).

Each daily reading provides insight to how to worship God in every aspect of life and will inspire readers to focus their heart completely on their relationship with Christ. This devotional is based on R. T. Kendall's book Worshipping God. (R. T. Kendall was the pastor of Westminster Chapel in London, England, for twenty-five years.)

Mary Marantz draws on her story of growing up in poverty in West Virginia to remind us that sometimes we find redemption not in spite of the dirt and pain in our lives, but because of it.

God created human beings to live joyfully. It's a gift that He has given and wired into the way that we were created. In this 6-day plan, Chris Coursey helps you identify when your "joy switch" has turned off and provides biblical pathways for living in the joy God gave you.

Ever feel like you’re on a treadmill that just keeps getting faster? Maybe part of you wonders, “Is this how it's meant to be?” Dear one, God has designed us for certain rhythms, and maybe your rhythm has gotten out of whack. Read along and ask God what He has to say about the cadence of your life—and invite Him to speak into it, too.

Getting “likes” on Instagram or scrolling through Facebook might give us fleeting happiness. But what we long for is lasting joy. This week, we’ll be exploring how to delete social media distractions from our lives and look toward God instead. You might consider fasting from social media completely as you journey through this devotional. Because we need a break. A holy hiatus. We need to look up.

Advent takes us up to Christmas, but what comes next? The decorations come down, the house is empty, and we're left looking for hope in a new year. These reflections remind us that our hope for change isn't in the clock striking midnight, but Christ's presence in our everyday lives.

Did you know that you have everything you need, right now, to live the abundant life that Jesus promised? Your life is not an accident, and how you live it doesn’t need to be an accident either. In this week’s devotional, get a taste of what it means to craft the life you want — the rich, meaningful life God intended for you.
