In today’s prayer, Jaime Hampton, host of Praying Christian Women, vulnerably shares her journey with health anxiety — how it began, how it manifested physically and emotionally, and ultimately how God brought healing through prayer, community, and truth. Jaime encourages those walking a similar path to resist isolation and shame and instead embrace the freedom of bringing anxious thoughts to the Lord. This prayer is a lifeline for anyone battling worry over their health or the health of loved ones.
Jaime reminds us: when we imagine a future filled with fear, we’re often picturing it without God. But Scripture teaches that He is always there, even in our worst-case scenarios.
Today's Bible Verse:
“We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”
