What’s the Purpose of a Women’s Daily Devotional?

A daily devotional is a time that you devote each day to intentionally cultivate your relationship with the Lord. The purpose of these daily devotionals is to fix our minds and heart in heavenly places. A women’s daily devotion is one geared towards helping women apply the scriptures to their lives. Popular topics include growing in faith, marriage, motherhood, and serving others.
As His daughters, we want to live each day for His purposes and His glory. Time we spend in His presence gives us the strength we need to walk in His ways.

How to Do a Daily Devotional

While there are lots of different ways daily devotions can be done, they commonly include a time of Bible study, application, and prayer. There is no perfect or ‘right’ amount of time you should spend doing your daily devotions. The point is that you make a meaningful connection with the Lord each day.

Daily Prayer Devotional

Spending time in prayer is an important part of your devotional time. It’s good to have a strategic prayer plan. What are the things that you want to pray for daily? What are some scriptures that you can pray over those specific areas? Get a prayer journal and write them down. I’ve even found it helpful to write out specific prayers that I want to pray for consistently.

Daily Scripture Devotional
Reading some daily Bible verses, as I said above, is a critical component to your daily devotional time. Again, I’ve found it helpful to have a plan! Find a good Bible study guide, reading plan, or devotional book to help guide you through your time in the Word.

Life Application
After spending some time in the Word, we need to prayerfully consider how the Lord would have us apply His truth to our lives. This step is so often overlooked. We can study and know God’s Word, but if we are not allowing it to change our lives, we are merely hearers and not doers. We need to allow the Holy Spirit to search our hearts, reveal areas of sin and disobedience, and turn towards godliness and righteousness. Especially when it’s hard to do so.

What Is A Good Daily Devotion for Women?
There are many daily devotional resources out there. Here are a few tried and true books, apps, podcasts, and online devotions for you to consider.

Women’s Daily Devotional Apps

Devotional apps are becoming increasingly popular. They are practical, accessible, and a lot of them are completely free!

YouVersion Bible
YouVersion Bible App is a great resource for all women. It has a variety of different reading plans and devotions written by many authors. You can find daily devotions for anxiety, peace, motherhood, marriage, leadership, and many other popular topics.

First 5
First 5 is an app created by Proverbs 31 Ministries and designed to help you give your first 5 minutes of each day to the Lord and His Word. You can choose different reading plans, join a group, and connect with others. This is a great way to do a short daily devotional and give the Lord the first-fruits of today.

Daily Devotional Books for Women
Some women love apps, and others prefer to have a physical book. I go back and forth. The apps are great and practical, but there’s nothing like holding a great book in your hand and taking notes as you do your devotions, an actual book may be the better option for you. Here are a few women’s devotional books and resources.

Lifeway Devotional

Lifeway has a great selection of daily devotional books that have a wide range of topics from many different authors. and you can get get the same books on Amazon usually at a cheaper price.

More Daily Devotional Books

I hope this inspires you to dip in your word and grow you relationship with our heavenly Father

Hi! My name is Marie. Some of you may know my story. Some might not. I’ve seen my fair share of struggles in life, who hasn’t?! Much of my adult life, I was stuck in a cycle of abuse. As a result of that, I really struggled to love myself. All that time, I thought I was trusting God and loving Him, but I’ll ask you the same question I had to ask myself.... “If God created you, in His image, and He is incapable of mistakes, how can you be so critical of yourself? How can you love and honor Christ with your very being, if you hate who you are?!”

To be a Christian, requires you to DAILY take up your cross and follow Christ(Matthew 16:24-26)! But what does that mean? It means to surrender your own wants and desires and to seek out what God’s desires are for you. I may not always get it right, but I’m striving, daily! I’m learning to love this person, inside out, because she is a Child of God. Created and chosen for such a time as this.

My name is Marie, and I’m learning to love myself. How about you?! Can I pray with you or for you as you take on the challenge to die to yourself and live for Christ?
