Beeda Speis’ daily devotional-type posts which often include her thoughts and feelings on a certain subject. Each post features a Bible verse of the day and suggestions for prayer.
Each week, beginning on Monday, she chooses the main theme and finds related Bible verses which she shares in her FaceBook prayer group, Pray In The Stillness (formerly 7th Hour Prayer Power). Come along beside her to pray together on a specific topic, need, or group of people.
She asks everyone to set aside time to be still and focus all of their attention on their conversation with God, talking to Him but also listening.
I believe that through the power of prayer, we can draw closer to our Father, glorify Him, and make a difference in the lives of others.
What “things” consume your time and energy? What monopolizes your attention and focus? For me, it’s work. Work consumes my life. I can’t seem to leave it at the office, and it’s been that way for over 28 years. I’m on vacation through Wednesday this week but felt really stressed yesterday because of a dream […]

I attended a workshop this past weekend by Nancy Guthrie on Biblical Theology. It was truly a blessing. During the question and answer period, someone’s question included the words, “finding time.” Nancy’s response was that we all have the same amount of time. We make time for the things that are important to us. Yesterday,

After my husband passed away from cancer, I took a day “off” to just be with the Lord. I told everyone what I was doing and asked them not to call or stopover. The intent was to observe a day of silence, a day of silent meditation and prayer where I could have a conversation

I was greatly moved by this passage: Then David and the people who were with him raised their voices and wept until they had no more strength to weep…. But David strengthened himself in the Lord his God… And David inquired of the Lord…1 Samuel 30:4 & 6b & 8a This is how we should
We’re reading this book Holiness by J.C. Ryle in a life group that I’m in and last night I came across this passage: “Some of us know by bitter experience what a long and weary time it is between the death of those we love and the hour when we bury them out of our
In the Gospel of John, chapter 11, Jesus goes to the home of Mary and Martha after Lazurus died. Three times, John mentions those who came to mourn with the sisters: v. 19 …many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them concerning their brother. v. 31 When the Jews who
I had a surprising number of conversations yesterday about death, grieving, and mourning. Maybe it isn’t really surprising considering how many of our loved ones have passed away since the pandemic began. We try to make sense of it, but it’s just so overwhelming. As Christians, we’re aware of 1 Thessalonians 4:13 (ESV): But we

If you’ve done the tasks this week, how’s that going? Have you gotten any reactions/feedback? I’m sure the lives you touched were made better by your outpouring of love and that you’ve planted seeds this week. Pray that those seeds will be watered. I prayed throughout the day yesterday about the texts I sent out
