It's no secret that we need God's guidance and the leading of the Holy Spirit to be able to hear God through His Word. We can do that by simply asking for His help. Before any Bible Study, it’s important to pray to God and invite Him to lead you. When we focus on God first, we’re reminded that the pressure is not all on us, but that God is with us and He desperately wants to speak to us through His Word. In this episode of the Teach Us to Pray Podcast learn 4 important areas to pray over before studying your Bible.

As much as we've learned about the numerous benefits of prayer so far in this podcast, you'd think it would always come easy. Sometimes we just don't feel like praying. Feelings should not be ignored. They are indicators as to what deeper may be going on within us that needs to be addressed. In today's podcast, we discuss some of the feelings that challenge our desire to pray so that we can find the faith to keep praying anyway.

Key Takeaways:
• In your feelings of grief and sadness, God is with you. He is not only with you; the Bible tells us He is close.
• Our struggle with doubt can often be rooted in our view of God and what we know about Him or what we don't know about Him.
• God is not mad at you; He is mad for you.
• When we feel guilty, the last thing we need to do is run from God, that is the time we need to run to God to receive the grace and forgiveness our souls desperately need.

The stress, pressure, and overwhelm we feel in busy seasons of our lives does not come from God. Jesus gives us peace, no matter how busy life may get. This is why the busier we are, the more time we need with God. In today's episode, we discuss grace-filled practical ways to make time for prayer when life is full.

Key Takeaways
• We can't compartmentalize our relationship with God and feel like the only time God is pleased with us is when we're praying.
• God is not going to be less powerful if we don't spend time praying to Him today. We will be less powerful if we do not spend time praying to Him today.
• There is nothing that can fill you up like God can.
