😎 Perfect Weeks? Perfect.

Perfect Weeks

Turn Streaks into Perfect Weeks.

Streaks motivate and encourage you to feed yourself every day. It feels great seeing that number climb, doesn’t it? It just grows and grows, each day you open the Bible App to seek God in His Word. But sometimes we miss a day, and then, disaster!

But that’s okay. Update your app, and every time you complete a Streak of seven days from Sunday to Saturday, your Perfect Weeks number will increase by one… and then never go down. Now, even when the inevitable hiccup breaks your current Streak, you won’t lose your record of everything you’ve accomplished so far.

We want to help you build your daily Bible practice, by stringing together longer and longer Streaks. Perfect Weeks let you do that, one week at a time. So update your app now, and start collecting — and keeping — all your Perfect Weeks.

🤷‍ What is prayer all about?

Ephesians 4:3

What do you pray about? Do you ever worry you might not be praying the “right” way? Does prayer actually do anything? Can prayer really unite us? How does prayer even work?

All of these are great questions to ask yourself today, the National Day of Prayer. We’ve prepared three posts this week to help you think through what prayer could mean in your life, and even to “practice” with a sample prayer. Just tap any one of the following that you’d like to try.

How to ask God to speak to you.
How to ask God to guide you.
How to ask God for something really big.

What Is God Saying to You?

All nations will come to your light; mighty kings will come to see your radiance.

Isaiah 60:3

Prayer is one of the most personal ways that you can connect with God. Because of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross, if you follow Christ, you have the privilege of talking directly with your heavenly Father. You can ask God to meet your needs, share with him whatever you’re feeling, and even ask him to show you the best path for your life.

God may respond to you through his Holy Spirit, or he may reveal wisdom to you through his Word, the Bible. As you draw closer to God, you’ll begin to feel the love and compassion he has for all people… growing inside of you. You’ll also begin looking for ways that you can connect with others, including how you can share with them all that God has given you.

For many believers, this is the point in their journey where they first discover that billions of people still don’t have the Bible in their language. And, although YouVersion partner illumiNations is making great progress toward giving all people the same opportunity to experience God’s Word that we already enjoy, there’s still a long way to go.

illumiNations wrote this prayer for all of their partners. Will you pray it with us now?

God, Your Word is more precious than all I possess.
Your Scripture gives light to my path and directs my steps.
Through Your will alone, lives are transformed and minds made new.
So I now pray for all people that do not know You.
For You’ve promised that Your voice by every tribe and nation will be heard.
So equip us by Your breath to provide every heart language with Your Word.
Thank you, Lord. Amen.
