I love this excerpt from Beth because there is so much I can relate to. To be totally honest, it’s really refreshing to be able to say that about someone you respect spiritually. I think we’ve all had that moment where we realize that while...

We will soon host the first of our PrayerGates guest prayer journalers. These women will help us to see how that week's excerpt from Praying God's Word has impacted their lives. You don't have to wait to begin utilizing PrayerGates, though...

Rejection. That word has shaped more of my life than I care to remember. I can remember standing in the middle of my elementary school gymnasium, waiting with tiny, sweaty fists as the kickball teams were chosen. Name after name was called and I stared...

Can you guess the four most often heard words in counseling rooms across the Nation and the World? The answer, hands down, is this: “Do you love me?” “Do you love me, Daddy?” “Do you love me, Mom?” “Do you Love...

One of the verses I often share when speaking to teen girls is Psalm 26:2-3 which says, “Test me, O LORD, and try me, examine my heart and my mind; for your love is ever before me, and I walk continually in your truth.” Too often, we worry...

Pride. I suspect that no stronghold is easier for us to spot in someone else, yet oh-so-difficult to recognize when staring back at us in the mirror. When it comes to the strongholds that Beth addresses in Praying God’s Word, this one is of epic...

Have you ever been lost in the dark? I was, once. It happened one day when I was leaving an office building. As I waited in the hallway for an elevator, the building’s electricity suddenly blinked out. Since the sun was shining through a nearby...

For the past couple days I've been dealing with some serious spiritual warfare. I get good and strong for a little bit and then Satan comes back and starts in again. It’s extremely frustrating. A friend told me this is when I really need to...

The PrayerGates team has teamed with LifeWay Worship to bring you the PrayerGates Theme Song, "Talk to Me," by Scott Dotta. This MP3 will be made free for you to download as we journey through Beth Moore's Praying God's Word together...

Each month, we release to the community a new song and downloadable video, for free, to tie in with that month's focus chapter. But what happens to them after the month is over? They go to YouTube! Follow this link to view the PrayerGates playlist on...

At the beginning of each month, we will shift the focus of our journey together on PrayerGates.com to another chapter of Beth Moore's Praying God's Word. As we learn what it means to pray scripture together, the staff here at PrayerGates have...

Welcome to PrayerGates! We are so excited to launch this new resource that we pray will be a means by which women will join together in prayer and fellowship around the name of Christ. If you haven’t already, definitely check out About PrayerGates...

As we continue to make improvements to the PrayerGates service, one of the first things we wanted to release to the community was a way to put the Prayer Wall posts into your own personal site/blog. Now, by just copying an pasting a small bit of code...

God, this weekend has been a crazy one. I'm left feeling ashamed, pathetic, and altogether not right. Why does this have to happen this way? Why does my heart have to be broken? Why do I still have to face it all the time? Why do I still think about...

Pray for two very special couples as they struggle with infertility. That they will have a peace that passes all understanding through this journey. Pray for Matthew and I as we are going through the same struggles. That one day we will all look back...

9/29/10 This passage has been special for me in the last few days as I've read my Bible readings and a few books I've been reading a chapter of daily. Vs. 2 has really been special to me in that I am reminded of my Bible study girlfriends. Read...

Father, I pray that you will help me understand your Word and obey! Help me live out your Word so that my children will have a godly example. Please, give me strength today. Give me more joy, as the joy of the Lord shall be my strength!!! I praise you...

I find that attitude is everything, the more we weigh ourselves down with worry and stress the more control the enemy gains over us ... and it changes our attitude, and the way we act and think. Today I choose to have a joyful attitude, because no matter...

I have been walking through the days this summer looking at every turn for the provision of the Lord, for doors of ministry to open for Carl and it 'looks' as though doors are closed. However, I stand in the palm of His hands, on His promises...

I recently found out that my husband has been and still is, having an affair with a co-worker. I am devastated by this news. We recently had a baby and I have been left to raise our child on my own. I pray that my husband finds his way back to his family...

DEAR FATHER, IT IS MY SINCERE WISH THAT I GROW DAILY INTO CHRIST-LIKENESS. I KNOW THAT I HAVE TO BE A WILLING PARTICIPANT IN THIS JOURNEY, BUT GIVE ME STRENGTH, B/C IT GETS HARD MORE OFTEN THAN SELDOM. I FEEL YOU HAVE A SPECIAL CALLING ON MY LIFE AND...

Lord, how marvelous and powerful are you! Full of grace and love for a sinner like me. On my knees my heart is heavy and wanting to hear your voice and walk the path closer to you! I love you Lord and sing your praises! My body is weak from multiple sclerosis...

Heavenly Father, It's so easy to get focused on myself when I pray. I end up praying for what I need, what I want, etc. I try to pray "Thy will be done," but I sometimes think I'm really praying for myself, even then. So today I pray...

I love learning and consider it to be one of the greatest gifts that God has bestowed upon me. Although I don't know what He has in store for me, it excites me to know that everything I do is for His greater cause. Currently, I am in graduate school...

I too have lost my 10 year old baby tragically and have not even begun to fully heal. It is and was the hardest thing I think I will ever face and anyone can say "I'm sorry for your loss but for the parents that is not enough you just want your...
