Unlocked: Daily Devotions for Teens

Keys for Kids Ministries

Unlocked is a daily teen devotional, centered on God’s Word. Each day’s devotion—whether fiction, poetry, or essay—asks the question: How does Jesus and what He did affect today’s topic? With daily devotions read by our hosts, Natalie and Dylan, and questions designed to encourage discussion and a deeper walk with Christ, Unlocked invites teens to both engage with the Bible and to write and submit their own devotional pieces.

READ: PSALM 139:1-12; HEBREWS 4:14-16; 1 PETER 5:7 Have you ever thought about God going to school? He has attended school for as long as it’s been going on—He watches all that happens in the world, and He is with you everywhere. So when you’re struggling to make a basket in P.E.—God is there. When you can’t make sense of algebra—God is there. And when your crush doesn’t even know you’re alive—God is there. I remember the day I fell out of the

Keep Your Eyes on Him

READ: PSALM 143:7-8; MATTHEW 14:22-33 When worry invades each hope and dream, When fretful nights keep you awake, Keep your eyes on God. When panic drowns your heart and mind, Give God each problem, each anxious thought. Trust in Him. He is Master of the waves, Author of lives. Jesus, Messiah who hears each cry. Focus on Him. Holy Trinity, Three in One, loving, Ready to respond, patiently waiting. Trust in Him. • Cindy Lee • In Matthew 14:22-33,

Saved from the Sin Cycle: The Book of Judges

READ: JUDGES 2:16-23; 10:15; 17:6 In the book of Judges, God’s people are spinning in a sin cycle—rebellion, repentance, rescue, and restoration. They cycle twelve times, once for each of the twelve judges within the book. And if we look closely, we’ll probably see ourselves in the story. Rebellion. The people rebelled against God. Instead of obeying Him, they followed their own way. We’ve all believed the same lie at times: “If it feels good, do

Do You Feel Overwhelmed?

2025/08/16

READ: PHILIPPIANS 4:4-9; HEBREWS 12:2; 1 PETER 5:6-9 Life can be overwhelming. From a bad day at school to a betrayal by people we thought were our friends, sometimes we don’t know how to respond. Feeling overwhelmed or anxious is a common problem, but it’s not a new one. Though today we have social media and busy schedules contributing to our stress, people who lived thousands of years ago felt overwhelmed and anxious too. Thankfully, God has not

Emilia said to Willow, “No one wants you here anymore!” Willow turned around to see if Emilia was talking to someone else.

READ: JOHN 1:12-13; ROMANS 5:1-11; EPHESIANS 2:1-10 It’s tough being best friends with a brain. I know because that was my story. My best friend Jean was nicknamed “The Brain” in middle school, and it stuck. The upside was she got me through my math classes. Thank you, Jean! The downside is that I put incredible pressure on myself to keep up with her, which I never could. Does getting good grades stress you out? Maybe you feel pressured to keep up

READ: ISAIAH 40:11; JOHN 10:27-29; 2 CORINTHIANS 1:3-7 "It’s okay; I’ve got you.” The parent rocks their baby, holding them close. “You’re okay.” How many times have you seen this play out? You hear a young baby crying and then see an adult rocking them or patting them on the back, soothing them. Or you hear a toddler crying and see them looking afraid of everyone around them. They want nothing to do with anybody—except for the one holding them. The

READ: JOHN 16:22; 1 THESSALONIANS 4:13-14; REVELATION 21:1-5 "I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.” Through my father’s sobbing and his slurred speech, I could piece together the message: Mom had died. It didn’t really register for me then, but now, a year and a half later, it has. In the moment, accepting what I’d just heard was impossible enough, but to even consider that a future existed seemed as likely as Star Wars becoming reality. Whether I knew it or

READ: ISAIAH 9:6-7; 26:3-4; 53; JOHN 14:27 The book of Isaiah begins with a mess. The people’s rebellion against God was serious, and the consequences of their sin brought devastation, brokenness, and hopelessness. Things were not the way they were supposed to be. There was no peace. In Isaiah 1-12, people looked for peace in all the wrong places. They trusted in foreign kings, other gods, unfaithful leaders, and their own power and plans. But

READ: JONAH 1-3; LUKE 15:1-7 Picture this: God asks me to go to a new school. You know, the one all the way across town. I’ve never visited. I have no friends there. A new kid, let alone a quiet kid like me, could be turned into creamed cauliflower before lunch. And, as if changing schools isn’t enough, God wants me to talk to the people I meet— and tell them about Jesus. I’m a goner. Everything I’m feeling—the roiling in my gut, the clenching of my
