What is the most powerful prayer ever prayed? In this moving episode, we journey into the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus’ simple yet world-shaking words—“Not as I will, but as You will”—opened the way for every person to enter God’s presence. Through His suffering, sacrifice, and total surrender, the Father’s will was fulfilled, and humanity was offered forgiveness and hope. But this episode goes beyond history; it challenges us to embrace that same posture of surrender in our own prayers. With unforgettable stories—including a powerful encounter with a persecuted believer in Czechoslovakia—you’ll discover how praying “Your will be done on Earth as it is in heaven” unleashes transformation, restores lives, and reveals God’s glory in ways we could never imagine.

Candace Cameron Bure opened up about the importance of reminding herself that God has forgiven her. The actor, author and podcast host mentioned that even though she has been forgiven of her sins, she still struggles with that at times. Watch the short but powerful clip to hear Candace’s powerful and insightful words on His forgiveness.

Sin has ruined and destroyed this world. Everything that sin comes into contact with is made immediately worse. This truth about our fallen world is easily visible all around us – on the news, social media platforms, in the workplace and in our neighborhoods. Human beings have made an unbelievable mess of things, that is for sure.

However, despite the sad, sin-ridden state of our world, there is still hope. Jesus Christ, who willingly went to the cross, suffered and died on the cross, and later rose again, offers hope, love and forgiveness from sin. He can transform lives and hearts, injecting hope into a situation previously thought hopeless. Only He can do that, but we must first confess our sins and accept his forgiveness, which is freely offered to all.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Candace mentions that even after confessing her sins and accepting Christ as her personal Lord and Savior, she still has to remind herself that God has forgiven her for this or that sin at times.

“There are a few that, that haunt me still today, and I think about them,” she said. “And I think about God’s forgiveness, and I think I’ve asked for forgiveness way too many times, in a sense that God forgives me. God paid the fine for me. God’s not holding judgment against me once I’ve confessed and asked Him forgiveness.”

Later in the clip, Candace says she understands that once she has asked forgiveness, the Lord actually forgets about that thing, but sometimes she can hold onto things that she needs to let go of.

Most of us can relate to this, because we all have things that we unnecessarily hold onto, even after taking them to the Lord.

Carrying the Weight

Faith Before Law - A devotional discussing which came first the law or faith.

When the weight on your shoulders feels heavier than your hands can carry, God invites you to lean on His strength, not your own. Isaiah 40:31 promises, “But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength; they will soar on wings like eagles… they will walk and not be faint.” This prayer is for the weary heart asking God to breathe fresh strength, lift you where you’ve fallen, and remind you that His power is made perfect in your weakness. You are not walking into this day alone—His presence is your strength and your hope.

Welcome One and All: A Visit to Corinth - a devotional based on 1 Corinthians 1-4.

At thirteen and a half, I was diagnosed with a large brain tumor on the right side of my head after months of “migraines,” blurred vision, and loss of balance. The surgery was very risky, and when I woke up, I couldn’t walk, couldn’t feed myself, and my motor skills were like a baby’s. In this shorter version of my testimony, I share how: – I grew up in Switzerland as the son of an Olympic swimmer – Doctors first dismissed my symptoms as “just migraines” – An eye doctor finally discovered the truth – I woke up in a completely different body after surgery – One week in a rehab school in Hyères changed my heart – A simple prayer, “Lord, help me. Lord, don’t let go,” carried me through many years of depression – God surprised me with a master’s degree, my wife Elvi, and our three children I didn’t become the athlete I dreamed of, but I am still here by God’s grace. If you’re going through illness, depression, or loss, I pray this encourages you: your story is not over, and you are not alone.

Stop Majoring in the Minors

A simple airport interaction became a powerful reminder of how the Lord works. The woman mentioned that while at the airport, she overheard someone going through a difficult situation and felt the Lord prodding her to reach out to the person. Watch the short but powerful clip to hear what unfolded and how that interaction was used to grow God's Kingdom.

Life is not perfect, if you haven't already figured that out yet. Indeed, there are numerous opportunities and reasons to celebrate. However, we all understand full well that with the good also comes the bad. There will also be those deep, dark valleys, instances that result in much hurt and pain.

However, God can use anything and everything. He can bring beauty out of ashes and infuse hope into what seems a hopeless, lifeless situation. He can also turn an innocent and simple interaction with a stranger into something unexpectedly beautiful. As one young woman explains, that is precisely what happened to her while at the airport.

In the clip posted on YouTube, she states how she was walking through the airport when she heard someone who was obviously going through something awful. This person was having a horrible day. But God prompted her to reach out to this individual, to talk to her and see how she could help.

"So, I walk past this girl, and she's bawling her eyes out," the woman said. "I overhear on the phone, and she's saying that she got scammed. So, I go over to her, and I like, sit next to her. And she gets off the phone, and I'm like, 'Hi.' I have my Venmo open, and I'm like, 'Hi, can I please? I just heard you over the phone. I'm so sorry this happened. Can I please send you some money?'"

The woman refused the offers of monetary assistance, but then something else happened. It was something that would change this woman's life forever.

In the middle of the airport, the two women started praying together.

"I feel this tension, where I'm like, 'Ask her if she wants to accept Jesus?'" the woman said. "Then I'm like, 'That's so weird. Like, let the girl, she's freaking crying. That's not what she needs right now.' And then I'm like, 'What else does she need right now than to give her life to Jesus in this moment?'"

So, during their prayer, the woman who had been scammed and was going through a painful, horrible situation accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior. It all happened because one person reached out to her when she was going through a difficult time and asked if there was anything she could do for her.

James 5:16 "So then, make a statement of your sins to one another, and say prayers for one another so that you may be made well. The prayer of a good man is full of power in its working."
