Have you ever prayed and still felt restless afterwards? Or maybe you wanted to pray, but you couldn’t find the words? Episode 19 of The Week Ahead Podcast is for you.

Ken Robinson unpacks two powerful promises from Scripture that bring comfort and hope to our prayer life. First, from John 14:27, we’re reminded that Jesus gives us a peace the world can’t offer — a calm that guards our hearts even when circumstances haven’t changed. Prayer isn’t just about getting answers; it’s also about receiving God’s peace in the middle of the waiting.

Second, from Romans 8:26, we learn about the Spirit’s remarkable role in prayer. When words fail, when we don’t know how to express our needs, the Holy Spirit intercedes for us with “wordless groans.” This means you are never alone in prayer. Even your sighs, tears, and silence are carried to the Father.

In this episode, Ken shares how to:

• Experience peace after you pray, even if the situation hasn’t changed.
• Trust the Spirit to pray on your behalf when you feel stuck.
• Let go of the pressure to have the “right words” in prayer.

If you’ve ever struggled with prayer or longed for peace in the middle of life’s uncertainty, this episode will remind you that God is closer than you think — bringing peace to your heart and giving you strength for the week ahead.

Have you ever prayed hard for something, only to realise later it wasn’t what you really needed? Or maybe you’ve been desperate for direction, but deep down, you just wanted God to approve your plan. That’s where surrender and wisdom come in.

In Episode 18 of The Week Ahead Podcast, Ken Robinson unpacks two powerful truths that can transform your prayer life. First, from Luke 22:42, we see Jesus’ example in the Garden of Gethsemane: “Not my will, but Yours be done.” Jesus was honest about His anguish, yet He fully trusted His Father’s plan. That’s surrender — laying down our agenda and choosing God’s way.

Second, from James 1:5, we’re reminded to ask God for wisdom, who “gives generously to all without finding fault.” God doesn’t shame us for asking. He delights in giving us direction for the next step.

Ken explores why surrender without wisdom can leave us passive, and why wisdom without surrender can make us stubborn. Together, they form the sweet spot of real prayer — honesty, trust, and guidance.

This episode will encourage you to:

• Be honest with God about your struggles and desires.
• Pray with the courage to surrender your will.
• Ask boldly for wisdom, trusting that God will provide it.

If you’ve been wrestling with decisions, waiting on answers, or struggling to let go of control, this episode will give you peace, clarity, and strength for the week ahead.

Waiting on God can be one of the hardest parts of prayer. We want answers quickly, but often His timing looks very different to ours. So how do we keep praying when nothing seems to be changing? And how do we make sure our prayers are filled with faith, not fear?

In Episode 17 of The Week Ahead Podcast, Ken Robinson unpacks two key Scriptures that give us fresh perspective on prayer: “He has made everything beautiful in its time” (Ecclesiastes 3:11) and “Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours” (Mark 11:24).

Through honest, everyday reflections, Ken reminds us that delays don’t mean God has forgotten. His timing is always perfect, even when we can’t see it. And faith means praying with confidence — not in ourselves, but in the God who hears and answers.

This episode will encourage you to stop panicking, to start trusting, and to pray as if God is already at work. Whether you’ve been waiting for weeks, months, or even years, you’ll be reminded that God’s “not yet” is never a “no without purpose.”

Listen in and be strengthened to trust His timing and keep asking in faith.

Ever felt like you’re not good enough to pray? Or maybe you’ve worried about saying the wrong thing? In this episode of The Week Ahead Podcast, Ken Robinson shares why prayer isn’t about polished words or getting everything right. God simply wants you to come boldly and honestly.

The Bible says in Hebrews 4:16 that we can “approach God’s throne of grace with confidence.” That means you don’t have to creep in hoping not to be noticed. You can walk right up to God knowing He welcomes you with open arms.

And in Psalm 62:8, we’re told to “pour out your hearts to Him.” Prayer isn’t about hiding your struggles or pretending you’ve got it all together. It’s about being real. Telling God exactly what’s going on in your heart — your fears, your frustrations, your tears — and trusting that He listens.

In this practical and encouraging episode, Ken explains how to:

• Pray with confidence, not fear.
• Be honest with God, rather than pretending.
• Experience the peace and strength that come when you bring everything to Him.

If you’ve ever wondered how to pray when you don’t feel worthy, or when words don’t come easily, this episode will remind you that God hears your heart and invites you to come close.

Don’t Give Up on Prayer: The Power of Perseverance

In Episode 13 of The Week Ahead with God Podcast, Ken Robinson explores one of the most vital yet often neglected principles of powerful prayer: persistence. Many of us pray for something once or twice and then give up when we don’t see the results. But Jesus taught us the exact opposite: to keep asking, keep seeking, and keep knocking.

Through the parable of the persistent widow in Luke 18, we see a picture of faith that refuses to quit. It’s not about pestering God—it’s about showing Him we trust His timing and we’re serious about His promises. God isn’t annoyed by your repeated prayers; He’s honoured by them.

In this episode, Ken encourages you not to let discouragement or delay rob you of your faith. You’ll discover why persistence is not a sign of weak faith—but of bold, unwavering confidence in who God is.

If you’ve been tempted to give up on a prayer request, this episode will reignite your hope and remind you that God works in the waiting.

Listen now and discover how persistent prayer cultivates spiritual endurance, deepens your trust, and paves the way for God’s perfect timing.
