Faith for Everyday
Faith for Everyday is a daily podcast dedicated to guiding youth through modern challenges with timeless Biblical wisdom. Each approximately 10-minute episode offers scriptural insights and practical encouragement to strengthen faith in everyday life. New episodes are released daily.
Spending time in God’s Word is essential for spiritual growth, yet many people struggle with where to start. Some feel intimidated by the Bible’s depth, while others become discouraged or overwhelmed by life’s challenges. If you’ve ever felt that way, this devotional is for you.
"Faith for Every Day" is designed as a simple yet powerful guide to help you engage with Scripture daily. You don’t have to start on January 1st—this podcast is meant to be picked up at any time of the year. Each daily devotion stands on its own, addressing real-life struggles while pointing you back to God’s truth.
Throughout this journey, we will explore topics such as anxiety, depression, rejection, and uncertainty—struggles that are all too common today. But you’re not alone. The Bible is filled with stories of people who faced similar challenges and found strength in God. By looking at their experiences, we can find encouragement, hope, and guidance for our own lives.
Whether you’re a new believer seeking direction or a seasoned Christian looking for fresh inspiration, this podcast will meet you where you are. My prayer is that as you go through these devotionals, you will be encouraged to dig deeper into God’s Word, grow in faith, and draw closer to Him daily.
Let’s embark on this journey together—one day at a time, one step closer to God.
Faith for Everyday
Ask Before You Act
Feeling buried under opinions yet short on clarity? We go straight to a promise that cuts through the noise: if you lack wisdom, ask God, and He gives generously without shaming you. This isn’t about sounding smart or collecting more facts—it’s about receiving guidance that fits real life, right now, where the stakes are high and the options feel overwhelming.
We unpack how wisdom differs from knowledge and why the gap matters for your choices, your relationships, and your peace of mind. From school and career decisions to dating, conflict, and next steps, we trace a simple, repeatable rhythm: before you act, ask; before you decide, pray; before you speak, seek wisdom. Along the way we reflect on Solomon’s request for wisdom over wealth or fame and consider how that priority still reshapes what we chase today. When wisdom leads, success doesn’t inflate our ego and failure doesn’t crush our resolve. Instead, we gain the long view—clarity that outlasts trends, courage that outlives pressure, and words that land at the right time.
You’ll hear practical language for prayer, a nudge away from crowdsourced answers, and an invitation to anchor decisions in truth rather than emotion or convenience. The goal is not speed; it’s steadiness. The promise remains steady too: ask, and it will be given. If you’re facing a choice that keeps you up at night or a moment where hesitation meets hurry, consider this your pause—your space to ask and receive.
If this encouraged you, follow the show, share it with someone who’s weighing a big decision, and leave a review to help more listeners find these conversations. What’s the next choice you’ll bring to God for wisdom?
Seeking wisdom from above James chapter 1 verse 5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God that give it to all men liberally and operate it not, and it shall be given him. James chapter 1 verse 5. Hello and welcome to day 237 of Faith for Everyday. If you are like most people, especially in this generation, you are navigating big decisions, constant pressures, and a fast-changing world. Sometimes it feels like everyone has an opinion, but no one has real answers. This is why today's word is so important. Wisdom. We are not just talking about knowledge or being smart. You can have straight A's and still make a crooked decision. You can memorize facts and still fall flat. Wisdom is heaven's inside for earth problems. And according to James chapter 1 verse 5, it is available to anyone who asks of God. Let that sink in. God is not stingy with wisdom. He gives it liberally, which means freely, generously, and without shaming you for asking. He does not roll his eyes or say you should know by now. No. He delights when you come to him for help, for counsel, and for clarity. The only requirement you have to ask. We live in a time where people are quick to ask Google, social media, or friends before they ask God. But the truth is, not all advice is good advice. You need wisdom that does not just sound good, but it is good. Wisdom that aligns with truth. And that kind of wisdom only comes from above. Whether you are choosing a school, deciding who to date, dealing with conflict, or trying to figure out your next step, God's wisdom is available to guide you through. King Solomon, known as the wisest man who ever lived, did not ask God for money, fame, or long life. He asked God for wisdom. And because of that, God gave him not only what he asked for, but so much more. That is how powerful wisdom is. It keeps you from unnecessary setbacks. It helps you speak the right word at the right time. It shows you how to handle success without pride and failure without quitting. It helps you see the long-term picture when everyone else is caught up in the moment. Here is a challenge for you today. Before you act, ask. Before you decide, pray. Before you speak, seek wisdom. Say, God, I do not want to rely on my own emotions. I do not want to make decisions and choices just based on pressure or convenience. I want your wisdom. Show me the right path. And here is a promise from James chapter 1, verse 5. He will. Not maybe, not someday, it shall be given. Thank you for spending time with me today on day 237 of faith for every day. God's wisdom is not just for the older or more experienced. It is for everyone humble enough to ask. That includes you. So lean in, trust him, and walk wisely. Thank you very much for listening, and I will meet you again tomorrow.
