Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to James 5:13

Prayer is simple. It doesn’t require special knowledge. It doesn’t require special techniques. It doesn’t require special actions. It doesn’t require special words. Prayer is just talking with God. Anyone can pray at any time anywhere anyhow. Yet Jesus’ disciples still asked him to teach them how to pray. These seven devotions explore seven different approaches to prayer as taught or exemplified in Scripture. "Lord teach us to pray."

In this seven-day plan, you'll be encouraged to pray for a specific area of elderly care and provided with Scripture to help you as you pray.

Our faith isn’t a one-time moment of acceptance and salvation—it’s a continual walk with God as we seek to be more like Jesus. And we’re not alone on this journey! Hebrews 12 says that not only has Jesus walked the same path before us, but centuries of fellow believers who have faced every kind of challenge, sin, and peer pressure have run this race before us and are cheering us on. There are many things in our world that hinder our race. Our own sin, the sin of others, or even the good things we put in our life ahead of following Jesus. But we are empowered by the Holy Spirit to shatter every chain and sin and take our next steps in faith! What is holding you back? What’s keeping you trapped in fear and frustration? What is that thing in your life that you need to shatter to continue following hard after God?

Join us for a week of prayer as we reflect on the theme: “One Another.” Throughout the New Testament, this simple yet profound two-word phrase appears more than fifty times, shaping the very foundation of the early church. Like threads woven throughout Scripture, these words are an invitation to love, serve, forgive, pray for one another—and more. This call to interconnected living defined the early church, and it resonates today for us in the Evangelical Covenant Church as we seek to embody Christ’s radical love in our relationships with others.
