Circle Time for The Soul Daily Devotional | Bible Study, Journal Prompts, Morning Prayer, Biblical Encouragement

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode reminds us that the only way to the mountaintop is through the valley—and we never walk that road alone. As we reflect on 2 Timothy 1:7–10, Paul’s final words to Timothy call us to stand firm in God’s power, love, and a sound mind, trusting that fear has no hold when we walk in His Spirit. Each day’s study reveals a deeper truth: we’ve been saved by grace, called with purpose, and illuminated by the Good News that Jesus has already conquered death and fear itself. In our devotional “Stay Here: God’s Plan to Restore Your Mental Health,” we’re reminded that God’s presence isn’t reserved for mountain peaks but meets us right in the mess, grief, and uncertainty. Just like David in Psalm 23:4, we discover that it’s in walking through the valley that we see His faithfulness most clearly. If you’ve been praying for the strength to keep going, this conversation will help you rest in the truth that Jesus is not just waiting on the other side—He’s walking right beside you. 🎧 Listen in for encouragement, a fresh biblical perspective, and a gentle reminder that God never meant for your issue to define you—He calls you His own. 💌 Email: hello@circletimeforthesoul.com 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a heartfelt reminder that while prayer doesn’t always change our circumstances, it always changes us. As we continue our focus on faith and mental health, we explore how prayer draws us closer to the heart of God and why it’s one of the greatest gifts for our spiritual and emotional healing. We’ll walk through 2 Timothy 1:7, 9–10 and move into Day 4 of this weeks’ devotional, “Stay Here: God’s Plan to Restore Your Mental Health,” by Jacob Coyne, which calls the church to break its silence around topics like depression, anxiety, and suicide. If you’ve ever wrestled with heavy thoughts or wondered where God is in the midst of your mental and emotional struggles, this episode will remind you that Jesus not only sees you — He stays with you. You’ll be encouraged to bring your burdens before Him, to stop hiding your pain, and to believe again that healing is waiting when you let His light into the dark places. Because it’s okay to not be okay… but it’s not okay to stay that way. Jesus can heal what you’ve been hiding. 💛 🎧 Listen in for encouragement, a fresh biblical perspective, and a gentle reminder that God never meant for your issue to define you—He calls you His own. 💌 Email: hello@circletimeforthesoul.com 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a mid-week reminder to pause and check in — with your head, heart, and soul — as we continue our study through 2 Timothy 1 and Day 3 of the devotional Stay Here: God’s Plan to Restore Your Mental Health by Jacob Coyne.  We’re talking about anxiety, fear, and the truth that God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind. Through Scripture and reflection, we uncover how faith begins where understanding ends — and how God’s Word helps us take back our thoughts from the spiral of worry.  If you’ve been feeling mentally overwhelmed or spiritually scattered, this episode will remind you that your mind is not broken — it’s sound, renewed, and strengthened by His grace. 🎧 Listen in for encouragement, a fresh biblical perspective, and a gentle reminder that God never meant for your issue to define you—He calls you His own. 💌 Email: hello@circletimeforthesoul.com 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a powerful reminder that we are not defined by what we’ve walked through. As we continue our study in 2 Timothy 1:7, 9–10, we’re reminded that God has given us a spirit not of fear, but of power, love, and self-discipline. Together, we’ll reflect on what it means to live with a sound mind through the power of the Holy Spirit and walk boldly in the freedom Christ offers. We’ll also dive into Day 2 of our new devotional, “Stay Here: God’s Plan to Restore Your Mental Health” by Jacob Coyne. This reflection, “You Are Not Your Issue,” challenges us to release the labels we’ve carried—anxiety, fear, insecurity—and remember who we are in Christ: new creations, made whole and restored by His grace. If you’ve been struggling to separate your identity from your issue or you’ve been stuck in a cycle that feels hard to break, this episode will speak straight to your heart. God is not done with your story, and healing is possible. 🎧 Listen in for encouragement, a fresh biblical perspective, and a gentle reminder that God never meant for your issue to define you—He calls you His own. 💌 Email: hello@circletimeforthesoul.com 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

We’re diving into 2 Timothy 1 and Proverbs 4:23 as we begin the devotional “Stay Here: God’s Plan to Restore Your Mental Health” by Jacob Coyne—an invitation to let God reshape our thought life from the inside out.  Together, we’ll explore how our inner dialogue shapes our reality and how, through the Holy Spirit, we can move from fear and negativity to peace and renewal.

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a heartfelt reminder that God is for you, even in the moments when it feels like nothing is working — because He is working. We’re wrapping up our study of Acts 20:28–32, where Paul charges the church to guard God’s people, lead with humility, and stay rooted in truth. Through his example, we’re reminded that leadership begins with obedience, and that spiritual maturity grows as we stay anchored in God’s Word.  Then, in our devotional Well Encounters: Finding Living Water in Unexpected Places by Rachel G. Scott, we see how a single encounter with Jesus can transform not just our lives, but our purpose — just like the woman at the well who ran to share the hope she found. This episode will encourage you to trust God’s guidance, respond to His call, and let your own encounters with Christ overflow into the lives of others. 💌 Email: hello@circletimeforthesoul.com 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode begins with a beautiful reminder that even the smallest delays in our lives can be God’s divine preparation at work. Through a simple story about a phone plan mix-up, we’re reminded that waiting isn’t wasted — it’s often where God aligns the right people, timing, and provision to bless us far beyond what we expected. We continue our study in Acts 20:28–32, reflecting on Paul’s deep care for the church and how his tears, prayers, and watchful heart mirror the way we’re called to love and guide those entrusted to us. Then, we step into Day 2 of Rachel G. Scott’s devotional “Well Encounters: Finding Living Water in Unexpected Places,” where we see Jesus’ conversation with the Samaritan woman in a new light. This week’s message reminds us that Jesus doesn’t just want to modify our behavior — He wants to heal the wounds that drive it. If you’ve been sensing spiritual “warning lights” in your heart lately, this episode will encourage you to pause, invite God to search you deeply, and let Him bring renewal that satisfies your soul at its core. 💛 💌 Email: hello@circletimeforthesoul.com 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode reminds us that God meets us right where we are — not after we’ve gotten it all together, but in the middle of our real, unfiltered lives. We’re continuing our scripture study in Acts 20:28–32, reflecting on what it means to guard our hearts, stay rooted in truth, and remain discerning in a world that often distorts God’s Word. Then, we dive into Day 1 of Rachel G. Scott’s devotional Well Encounters: Finding Living Water in Unexpected Places. Through the story of the woman at the well in John 4, we’re reminded that Jesus isn’t waiting for our perfection — He meets us in our brokenness, our doubt, and even our detours. This conversation is a tender invitation to trust that our “wrong place, wrong time” moments might actually be divine appointments designed to refresh our weary souls with His living water. If you’ve been feeling spiritually dry, uncertain, or unseen, this episode will encourage you to draw near to the One who knows you completely and loves you still — the One who turns our wells of shame into wells of transformation. 💛  💌 Email: hello@circletimeforthesoul.com 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a powerful reminder that what feels like loss in our lives is often the soil where God is producing something greater. We begin in 2 Chronicles 25, where King Amaziah wrestles with the tension between obedience and cost — learning that when we trust God, He can give us far more than what we think we’ve lost. From there, we reflect on Acts 20, where Paul models unwavering faith and obedience even in the face of hardship, reminding us that our lives are not our own but are meant to pour into others. As we continue our study in Crushing: When God Turns Pressure into Power by T.D. Jakes, we explore what it means when God “makes wine” out of our crushing seasons. Just like Christ, who paid a personal cost for our transformation, we’re reminded that the process of becoming who God has called us to be comes at a price — but the outcome is purpose, maturity, and fruit that blesses others. If you’ve been walking through a season of pressure or loss, this episode will help you see that God is still at work in the pressing, and that what He’s making from your life is worth every drop. 🍇 💌 Email: hello@circletimeforthesoul.com 📓 Book: “Crushing: When God’s Turns Pressure Into Power” By TD Jakes: https://amzn.to/4qelSrF 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode begins with a gentle yet powerful reminder that you are not on the world’s timetable. The world says rush, hustle, and do more—but Jesus moved through life with calm, purpose, and complete trust in His Father’s plan. We introduce our scripture study from John 12:23–26 and move into day 6 of Pastor TD Jakes “Crushing: When God Turns Pressure into Power,” where we explore the beautiful truth that our miracle isn’t in what we lost—it’s in what remains.  Even in seasons of pruning, God is working. The fruit that’s left after loss is often the seed of our next season. If you’ve ever felt weary, behind, or unsure why God allowed something to be taken away, this episode will speak to your soul and remind you that His grace is still building you up for what’s next. 💌 Email: hello@circletimeforthesoul.com 📓 Book: “Crushing: When God’s Turns Pressure Into Power” By TD Jakes: https://amzn.to/4qelSrF 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode reflects on how the cross—once a symbol of agony—became the greatest emblem of hope, redemption, and victory. Through the story of Helen, the mother of Emperor Constantine, we see how God used one woman’s faith and determination to spread the message of the cross across the world. What was once a mark of suffering became a sign of salvation, reminding us that God can transform even our deepest pain into purpose. As we look back at John 12:23–26, we’re reminded that every crushing season has meaning. Just as Jesus’ death produced new life, our own seasons of surrender are where God brings resurrection and fruitfulness. From the vineyard to the vat to the victory—God’s process may involve pressure, but it always leads to promise. 💌 Email: hello@circletimeforthesoul.com 📓 Book: “Crushing: When God’s Turns Pressure Into Power” By TD Jakes: https://amzn.to/4qelSrF 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a heartfelt reminder that even in the stillness, God is still at work. We open up about the waves of grief that rise without warning and how God meets us right there in the middle of them — steadying our hearts with His presence and peace. Through John 12:23–26, we’re reminded that following Jesus fully means surrendering the things of this world and trusting that His timing, His plan, and His purpose are always perfect. We also continue our devotional Crushing: When God Turns Pressure into Power by T.D. Jakes with Day 4, “A Vat Full of Wait.” It’s a powerful picture of what happens after the crushing — that sacred “fermentation stage” where God refines our character, motives, and hearts before revealing what He’s been preparing all along. If you’ve been feeling like you’re in a season of waiting or transition, this episode will remind you that God hasn’t forgotten you — He’s preparing you. Nothing is wasted when surrendered to His will. 🎧 Referenced Song: “God Will Work It Out”: https://youtu.be/URuIldVKk9U?si=skdmvUj0WF0GyWNh 💌 Email: hello@circletimeforthesoul.com 📓 Book: “Crushing: When God’s Turns Pressure Into Power” By TD Jakes: https://amzn.to/4qelSrF 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a midweek heart check and a powerful reminder that even when life feels dark or confusing, God is still growing something beneath the surface. We’re continuing our study of John 12:23–26, where Jesus uses the imagery of a seed to show that our new life would only unfold after His death on the cross—and that even in loss or uncertainty, His purpose is still unfolding. We’ll also dive into Day 3 of T.D. Jakes’ “Crushing: When God Turns Pressure into Power” to explore what it means to truly trust God when the process feels painful. Through scripture, reflection, and prayer, we’ll be reminded that the presence of pain is not a prophecy of destruction, but a sign of preparation. If you’ve ever wrestled with trusting God’s timing or questioned what He’s doing in the unseen, this episode will meet you right there—with truth, encouragement, and peace for your soul. 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a gentle reminder that even in the hard and hidden seasons, God is still working something beautiful beneath the surface.  We’re studying John 12:23–26 and reflecting on Pastor T.D. Jakes’ Crushing: When God Turns Pressure into Power, where we’re reminded that the soil seasons of life—those times that feel dark, buried, or uncertain—are often the very places where God is preparing a greater harvest.  When we shift our perspective from burial to planting, we begin to see how even frustration and delay are tools of divine transformation. If you’ve been feeling pressed, this episode will encourage you to trust that God hasn’t forgotten you—He’s planting you in richer soil for greater fruit. 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode marks the beginning of a powerful 7-day devotional journey through Crushing: When God Turns Pressure into Power by Pastor T.D. Jakes. If you’ve ever wrestled with the “why” behind your suffering—or tried to make sense of circumstances that simply don’t add up—this episode will meet you right where you are. We talk about the tension between logic and faith, the difference between pruning and punishment, and how God’s loving intention redeems even what feels painful. Through Job 13, Romans 8:28, and John 15:2, we’re reminded that nothing is wasted in His hands. So if you’re walking through a season that feels confusing or heavy, lean in. God is still working, still refining, and still bringing purpose out of pressure. 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. ➡️ Order yours today at circletimeforthesoul.com/journal As always, may the rest of your day be the best of your day!

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a steadying reminder to fix our eyes on Jesus in a world full of waves. We finish our study of Jeremiah 1:4–8, remembering that before Jeremiah ever felt ready, God knew him, set him apart, and appointed him—and then commanded, “Do not be afraid… for I am with you and will rescue you.” When fear, anxiety, or the headlines pull us under, we return to the unchanging Word and the presence of Christ who never leaves us (see also Rom. 12:15).  We then move into Day 5 of Free of Me: Why Life Is Better When It’s Not All About You alongside 2 Corinthians 3:18, exploring the dangers of image management—especially in family life. Instead of treating loved ones as mirrors for our fears or aspirations, we release them to be who God created them to be and step into a mission bigger than appearances: loving God and others. If you’ve been craving a grace-filled reset and a steadier rhythm with the Lord, this conversation will help you lift your gaze from self to Jesus and walk in the freedom of being transformed into His image. 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. 🕊️ Want a simple way to strengthen your daily walk with Him?

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a special Thankful Thursday reminder of how precious life truly is. September 11th shaped my perspective on gratitude, family, and friendships in a way I’ll never forget. It’s a call to pause, to appreciate the gift of each day, and to live with a heart of thankfulness. Together we’ll reflect on Jeremiah 1:7–8, anchoring in the truth that God has chosen and equipped us, and that we don’t have to live in fear—because He is with us. We’ll also continue into Day 4 of Free of Me: Why Life Is Better When It’s Not All About You by Sharon Hodde Miller, where we’re reminded to shift our gaze from ourselves to the One who truly sustains us.

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a call to commit everything—your plans, your desires, your family, your future—into the hands of the Lord, trusting that He will help you. We’re beginning our study in Psalm 37:5–9, a wisdom psalm written later in David’s life, reminding us that God’s Word can be trusted. As David testifies, when we delight in the Lord, He not only shapes the desires of our heart but also helps us live in the security of His guidance. If you’ve ever wondered what it truly means for God to give you the desires of your heart, this passage will help clarify that it’s not about wish-fulfillment, but about transformation—God placing His desires within us as we delight in Him. We’re also wrapping up Day 7 of Free of Me: Why Life Is Better When It’s Not All About You by Sharon Hodde Miller, with a powerful reflection from Philippians 2. This final devotional reminds us of the unexpected joy that comes through dying to self. Our insecurities and failures point us to the truth that we were never meant to carry the weight of the world—only God can do that. In surrender, humility, and “smallness,” we discover the true freedom that Christ offers. If you’ve been striving, comparing, or feeling like you’re not enough, this episode will help you rest in the joy of letting go and letting God be God. 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. 🕊️ Want a simple way to strengthen your daily walk with Him?

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a midweek reminder to pause, take inventory, and check in with your soul. As we continue our study in Psalm 37:5–9, we reflect on the promise that God will make our innocence shine like the dawn and our righteousness as bright as the noonday sun. David’s testimony reminds us that even in seasons of delay, detours, and difficulty, God’s promises remain steady—and His justice will prevail in His perfect timing. We also step into Day 1 of Waiting on God by Pastor Tony Evans, where we’re reminded that waiting in Scripture isn’t passive—it’s active. From Sarah to Joseph to the disciples, we see that waiting has always been part of the believer’s journey, and it’s in those seasons that our strength is renewed. If you’ve been struggling with delays, uncertainty, or simply feeling weary, this episode will encourage you to press in closer, trust His timing, and see waiting as an opportunity to grow deeper with the Lord. 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. 🕊️ Want a simple way to strengthen your daily walk with Him?

Hey Sis! 🎙️ Today’s episode is a reminder that we don’t have to live in the rush of the world or carry the weight of our worries alone. In 1 Peter 5:6–7, Peter calls us to humble ourselves under God’s mighty hand and cast every care on Him—because He truly cares for us. Together, we’ll reflect on what it means to release our anxieties like a fisherman casting a net, trusting that God not only receives them but has the power to lift us up in His perfect timing. We’ll also walk through Day 3 of I Want to Trust You, But I Don’t by Lysa TerKeurst, where we’re invited to see suffering not as a reason to doubt God’s goodness, but as an opportunity to bow in humility and draw closer to Him. If you’ve been longing for peace in the midst of sorrow, this conversation will remind you that God’s way and God’s timing are always rooted in love. 🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab your For the Soul guided prayer journal — created to help you stay rooted in faith and connected with God throughout the week. 🕊️ Want a simple way to strengthen your daily walk with Him?
