His promise was clear: those who believe in the light become children of the light.

Reference: John 12:36

Prayer: Father, thank you that you give us the right to become your children when we believe in the light. May we always be aware that as children of light, we carry your light wherever we go. In Jesus' name, amen.

A Prayer to Love the Light Dec 16, 2025

Show notes

A Prayer to Love the Light by Stacey Thacker
While we love redemption stories—especially during the Christmas season—Jesus reminds us that some people cling to darkness rather than stepping into the freedom of the light.

This episode invites us to consider the condition of our own hearts and to intercede for those we love who are still walking in darkness, asking God to gently knock on the doors of their hearts.

Reference: John 3:19

Prayer: Father, you sent your son into the world because you loved us and desired to have an eternal relationship with us. That is the best news. I know people right now who don't know you personally. They live in darkness. And I pray that you would knock on the door of their hearts today. Open their eyes and Lord to the light and love you have for them in Jesus' name, amen.

A Prayer for True Joy at Christmas Dec 15, 2025

Show notes

A Prayer for True Joy at Christmas by Gina L. Smith
Christmas lights are beginning to glow—on rooftops, around trees, in windows—quiet reminders that joy has come. Yet for many, this season doesn’t automatically feel joyful.In today's episode, we explore this very real human experience, God sent light. Not a distraction or a seasonal escape, but a person. Jesus stepped into the darkness of our world—and into the dark places of our lives—bringing a joy that is not fragile, forced, or fake. Joy is not something we manufacture; joy is a person. Joy is Jesus.

Reference: John 1:5

Prayer: Father, thank you for stepping into our darkness to bring everlasting joy. Thank you that your presence is light, unchanging, unfading, unstoppable. Help me not to chase temporary happiness, but to cling to you, my joy and my hope. Amen.

Share the Light Interview Week 2 Dec 12, 2025

Show notes

Share the Light Interview: Week 2

In today’s special Share the Light episode, Nicolet Bell & Stacey Thacker talk about cultivating simple, meaningful traditions that help families “share the light” of Christ during the Christmas season.

This week’s featured listener story comes from Brianna, who takes her children on a Christmas light scavenger hunt while retelling the Christmas story—helping her kids become active participants in understanding Jesus as the Light.

Nicolette and Stacey also reflect on their own family traditions, including Advent wreaths, car-line prayers, and sweet (and funny!) moments of explaining spiritual truths to young children.

The episode closes with a prayer from Stacey reminding us that God has called His followers to shine brightly in a world longing for light.

Reference: Philippians 2: 15

Prayer: Father, thank you for the reminder that as your followers, we are not to live hidden lives. We are to shine because of our relationship with your son, the light of the world. Remind us that it is virtually impossible for a city set on a hill to remain hidden. May we grasp our purpose today with newfound commitment to shine brightly for you. In Jesus' name, amen.

A Prayer for a New Day Dawning Dec 11, 2025

Show notes

A Prayer for a New Day Dawning with Stacey Thacker

In motherhood, moments of silence are rare and most often linked to trouble. God's people waited in silence for 400 years. On today's episode of the Everyday Prayers Podcast, we look at how Luke 1 paints a picture of people sitting in darkness, waiting for God to speak again after 400 years of silence. Into this longing, Zechariah announces that the Sunrise from heaven is coming to bring light, salvation, and peace.Just as morning light overtakes the night without resistance, Jesus arrives as God’s tender mercy in human form, shining into despair and guiding His people toward peace.

Reference: Luke 1:76-79

Prayer: Father, thank you that you are merciful and ready to help us in our darkness and despair. You didn't let the shadow of death win. You sent your son - the day spring heaven's first light and the bright morning star to show us the way of peace. Oh Lord, keep sending the light of the gospel to be born afresh in our hearts today and every day. In Jesus name, amen.

A Prayer For The Gift I Want Most Dec 10, 2025

Show notes

A Prayer for the Gift I Want Most with Stacey Thacker

The gift we need most is wisdom—God’s light-filled wisdom that brings clarity in dark seasons, understanding in confusion, and guidance in everyday decisions.In today's episode we take a deeper look at the contrast between light and darkness in Scripture—light as knowledge, clarity, and revelation, and darkness as confusion, concealment, and despair. Daniel lived in this tension daily as a young exile in Babylon, yet he understood something profound: God alone is the revealer of mysteries.Jesus invites us to ask, seek, and knock, promising that God will respond.

Reference: Daniel 2:22

Prayer: Father, you are surrounded by light, full of wisdom and understanding. This Christmas may we seek the gift of light -filled wisdom that is only found in you. And when you answer our prayers and give us this gift, we will be careful to give you all the glory. In Jesus' name, amen.

A Prayer to Rise and Shine Dec 09, 2025

Show notes

A Prayer to Rise and Shine with Stacey Thacker

Have you ever felt disappointment during the Christmas season? I'm sure we all have. In today’s devotion, we begin the second week of December’s readings with a reminder to rise and shine—not in our own strength, but in the light of God’s glory. We hope this prayer encourages you to embrace the season with joy, not because of what may or may not be under the tree, but because the Light of the world has come. As reflectors of His light, we’re invited to shine brightly for others to see.

Reference: Isaiah 60:1

Prayer: Father, thank you for the glory you have given Jesus. You have extended that same glory to us because we are in him and he is in us. He prayed it would be true before he went to the cross. May we wake up today with a fresh desire to shine because your light has come. In Jesus' name, amen.

What does it mean to be a peacemaker during the Christmas season? In today's episode by Brooke McGlothlin, we are reminded that peace often begins with us.
