Agree to a time-limited discipline and keep your needs simple during it

Make the test easier by insisting on comfort and extra options

Avoid any challenge until life feels fully secure

Treat the trial as a way to show everyone how strong you are

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I admit that I have sinned and that I need your mercy. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. I turn from my sin and trust you with my whole life. Lead me out of self-reliance and into life with you. Be my Lord and Savior. Amen.

Receive Jesus in Faith

Lord, revive your Church to trust you in times of testing. Make us humble, steady, and willing to walk in simple obedience instead of chasing comfort or display. Teach us to depend on your provision, to welcome your refining work, and to stay faithful when our lives are being examined, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Renew Your People in Trust

Father, thank you for the gifts that are simple and enough for each day. Teach me to receive your provision with gratitude, to be content with what you supply, and to trust you when I want more, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Thank You for What Is Enough

Pray by naming one area of life where you feel tested. Ask God for a steady heart, clear judgment, and the grace to accept what is enough for this season while he works in you.

Pray Through a Season of Testing

Bring these to God: a friend or family member who is under pressure; courage to endure a hard season with faith; enough practical provision for the days ahead; and a spirit that stays humble while being tested.

Pray for Someone Under Pressure

Pray about these areas: wanting less and trusting more; choosing simple habits that help you stay faithful; learning contentment with daily provision; and becoming steady when comfort is limited.

Grow in Simplicity and Self-Control
