96: When it feels like God isn’t answering your prayers


Listen Later

When it comes to our prayer life & talking to God… there are some prayers that can feel like we've brought to God for years, even decades and yet nothing seems to be happening. Prayers that align with Gods heart, His word & His promises and yet as we’ve come to Him again and again, asking, seeking and knocking (just like scripture says to), it can feel like radio silence. During those times of intense praying and not seeing changes, discouragement can easily set in which can fall into:

-Doubting in Gods goodness

-Doubting that He hears us

-Doubting that He sees us 

-And doubting that He even cares about us

(All lies by the way)

And if we aren’t careful… we can believe those lies and begin to find our discouragement growing into resentment, bitterness and intense heartache. 

In this episode we unpack somethings we can consider during those seasons of praying and contending while we aren't seeing it come to pass YET. How we can check our hearts, shift our prayers, keep believing & moving forward with expectation that He is in fact at work.
