Last week we talked about what prayer is and how God wants to communicate with His people. Today, let's shed some light on unanswered prayers.  Anchoring our conversation in scripture, we explore this complex issue, drawing parallels between our relationship with God and that with our own children. The key takeaway? Unresolved sins and strained relationships with kin can often impede our prayers, among other things. But remember, God's response to our prayers stems from His unfailing love for us. Our journey doesn't stop there. We knit in the profound role of compassion and empathy, crucial elements in aligning with God's love. You'll hear our personal anecdotes on how answering the cries of the poor has deepened our bond with God. By leaning on Proverbs 21:13, we stress on treating the poor with a tender heart and honoring God's word for our prayers to be answered. As we proceed, we navigate the delicate balance between loyalty to God and faith, and understanding God's will amidst trials and persecution. You'll discover the importance of being in right standing with God, reigning in your feelings, and holding onto faith even in times of doubt. We spotlight the importance of candor about our struggles and the power of scripture in preserving our faith in adversity. So join me and my co-hosts, Jill, Shon, Joshua & Tacara and let's embark on this spiritual exploration together.Support the showConsider helping us to take the Gospel to others here:https://patreon.com/churchplantinghttps://cash.app/$WellnessInstituteLeave a voicemail question or prayer requests here:(585) 331-3424Leave an email question, prayer requests or comment here:[email protected]
