The Pace of Grace with Kim Avery

When God Says No: Understanding Unanswered Prayers (Part 1)


Listen Later

I love celebrating those moments when it’s so clear that God answered my prayers. Whether it’s the job offer arriving at the perfect time, a loved one’s health turning around, or that “just when I needed it” phone call from a friend. Those "yes" moments are incredible. But, as much as I cherish those times, they aren’t the full picture. Not by a long shot.

There have been plenty of times when God’s answers seemed more like a "no," or worse, silence. What do we do when our prayers linger unanswered, or the outcome looks so different from what we hoped for? In this episode, I’ll share how I’ve learned to navigate those seasons of waiting and uncertainty, and where I’ve discovered God’s grace in the silence.

Listen in to…

  • Gain insight into how God works in our lives even when the answer isn’t what we expected.

  • Be encouraged by real-life examples of persistent faith through unanswered prayers.

  • Learn two foundational truths to help ground your prayer life in hope and trust.
