Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Luke 12:24-26
Consider the ravens: They don’t sow or reap; they don’t have a storeroom or a barn; yet God feeds them. Aren’t you worth much more than the birds? Can any of you add a cubit to his height by worrying? If then you’re not able to do even a little thing, why worry about the rest?”
LUKE 12:24-26
DEVOTION
Based on Luke 12:24-26
Jesus points to creation as our teacher. Ravens do not have retirement plans or storage units, yet they eat daily. If God faithfully provides for birds, how much more will He care for you, made in His image, loved beyond measure? Worry cannot add a moment to our lives; it only steals from the moments we have.
This passage invites us to recalibrate our perspective, to see ourselves as God sees us: precious, valued, worth caring for. Your Father knows what you need. The birds teach us about trust—they work and seek food but do not anxiously hoard. They live in daily dependence on their Creator.
A.C.T.S. REFLECTION
ADORATION: Father, You are the great Provider who sustains all creation. From the smallest bird to the vast galaxies, nothing escapes Your care. Your love encompasses all You have made.
CONFESSION: I confess I often live as if everything depends on me. I worry as if You have forgotten me, as if I am worth less than the birds You faithfully feed.
THANKSGIVING: Thank You for valuing me more than I value myself. Thank You for Your faithful provision throughout my life. I am grateful that my worth to You is not based on my productivity or success.
SUPPLICATION: Lord, help me to truly believe in my value to You. When worry tempts me to doubt Your care, remind me of the birds. Teach me to rest in Your provision instead of striving in anxiety. Help me trust that the God who feeds ravens will surely care for me.

LUKE 12:24-26
Dear Heavenly Father, You are the Creator of all things. Your magnificence is beyond our comprehension, and yet You still love us with an unwavering, perfect love. We delight in knowing that nothing can ever separate us from Your loving embrace. We thank You for the gifts You have given us: food to nourish us, shelter to protect us, and joy that warms our hearts. You have given us the sun to bring life-giving light, and the stars to fill our minds with wonder. Help us not to worry about earthly treasures, but rather give thanks for all the blessing You have bestowed upon us. Give us faith that You will provide for us, no matter what the circumstances may be. We praise You forever and ever. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏🏾
