Your Question:
What's the point of praying when I'm still struggling?!
Answer:
As a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with prayer, wondering if it's even making a difference. But the truth is, prayer is not about getting the answer we want, it's about getting ahold of God. When we pray, we're not just asking for solutions to our problems, we're seeking a deeper connection with our Creator. It's about surrendering our will to His will, and trusting that He knows what's best for us. Sometimes, prayer can feel like a struggle, and it's easy to get discouraged when we don't see immediate results. But that's where faith comes in. When we pray, we're not just asking for things, we're asking for God's presence and power in our lives. And when we pray in the name of Jesus, we're exercising authority over the enemy and trusting that God will do what His Word promises. It's not about us being successful, it's about us being faithful. As I've learned from my own experiences, prayer is not just a discipline, it's the breath of my soul. When I'm struggling, prayer is what gets me through. And I've seen it work in the lives of others too. When we pray, we're not just asking for answers, we're asking for God Himself. And when we do that, we open ourselves up to His power and presence in a way that can transform our lives. So don't give up on prayer, even when it feels like it's not working. Keep praying, keep seeking God, and trust that He will show you His will.
