FUMCFW Prayer Ministries offers many ways to get connected with our praying community. Recognizing that every person has unique gifts and callings, many of which emerge out of times of struggle and pain, we are here to encourage individual spiritual formation and disciplines that can become powerful influences on all aspects of the life-long faith journey.
We use The Upper Room® Daily Devotional Guide as our FUMCFW Daily Devotional. The Upper Room is a well-recognized resource and model of practical Christianity, accessible in varied formats to help people feel invited and welcomed into God’s presence each day.
Access to The Upper Room can be found below; however, you will need to subscribe directly through The Upper Room in order to receive your daily devotional in your email inbox. If you have questions or need assistance with your subscription, please let us know!
Our Daily Bread Devotionals are written by FUMCFW pastors and include messages of instruction and inspiration. We invite you to take a few moments to read and reflect upon today’s scripture selection and to carry these thoughts with you into your day.
The cloak was a personal garment. Most Jews wore it. It had several functions: first of all, it was a coat.
At that time, donkeys were used exclusively for service, while horses were more often used for warfare. Instead of entering the city on horseback, like a military conqueror, Jesus arrives on a donkey to serve.
Jesus needed a colt; he had sent his disciples under very specific instructions.
The word “Lord” comes from the Greek root kyrios and identifies the person with the authority to make decisions.
We are in the van, ready to leave, and my wife tells me that she forgot her purse. “Samuel, will you bring me my purse that is in the house?”
Once upon a time, there was a burrow where a family of mice lived. They were their mother and her eight children.
“Alert” is from the Greek root word agrupneo and literally means to stay awake, but figuratively means to be attentive and ready.
When I saw the movie, “Back to the Future II” and that Marty Mcfly went to the store to buy the famous “Sports Almanac” in the future and take it to the past to play a little in their present and generate some easy money, and thereby develop a subplot that Dr. Emmett Brown did not consider, as they were only going to the future to fix a problem with the future family of Marty and return to his past without any problem (see the movie if you want to know what happened next); I realized that I had not been the only one to think something like that.
The followers of Jesus witnessed firsthand the redemptive work of Jesus Christ and were filled with the Holy Spirit in their lives.
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. (Matthew 6:9-13)
