Untangling Prayer with Rachel Wojo

Have you ever whispered "God, please" and wondered if it even counted as a prayer?

3 Extraordinary Promises to Build Your Prayer Life

Are you afraid of what could still go wrong? A lot of us carry a fear about the future, and it reshapes how we pray. We start asking God for the small things because we're scared to hand Him the big one, the one that would wreck us if the answer came back no.

In this episode, we sit in Romans 8:37-38, two verses that don't promise a future with no hard things in it. They promise something you need a lot more. Paul goes corner by corner through every place fear can hide, your body, the things you can't see, time itself, every direction, and in each one he leaves a mark that says God's love already got here first. Not one thing in all creation can separate you from it, including the future you're afraid of. Rachel also shares a moment from a recent interview at Daystar, where God used her words about her daughter Taylor to reach the man interviewing her in a grief she had no idea he was carrying.

You'll discover:
Why fear about the future doesn't mean your faith is failing
How to pray Romans 8 by finding exactly where your fear lives on Paul's list
What "more than conquerors" really means (and what it doesn't)
How God's love moves straight through the thing you're most afraid of

You are not praying to a God who's limited by what scares you. You're praying to the One whose love already reached the place you don't want to go.

Praying When You're Afraid of What Can Go Wrong

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/5e27a451-e6e6-4c51-aa03-a7370003783c/clips/8431d972-34ef-4abc-8db9-b4a4002ba929/transcript

You've prayed about it more times than you can count. You've said the words, cried the tears, done all the asking. And now you're just standing there, waiting to see if God is actually going to move this time. That in-between place, after you've prayed but before you've seen anything, is one of the hardest places to stand in the whole life of faith.

In this episode, the first in our For the Winning series, we sit with the prophet Habakkuk, who shows us what to do in exactly that place. After he brings his honest complaint to God, he climbs up to his watchpost and stations himself to watch for God's answer to come. Not once he feels hopeful. Not once he can see something on the horizon. First. We'll look at what it means to take that same watching posture in your own long wait, why the very act of watching is itself a quiet act of hope, and how the missionary Hudson Taylor discovered that God is often already moving long before we can see it.

You'll discover:
Why expectancy is a posture you can choose, not a feeling you wait around to have
What Habakkuk's watchtower teaches us about quieting the noise and getting ready to actually hear from God
Why the fact that you're still watching means you haven't lost hope
How a group of missionaries watched God provide exactly what they'd prayed for, right on time
The reason you can keep watching even when the horizon looks completely empty

Wherever you are in your wait today, I pray this episode gives you the courage to climb back up on the wall and keep watching. God has never once been unfaithful to the people who look for Him.

Still Waiting on God After You've Prayed

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/5e27a451-e6e6-4c51-aa03-a7370003783c/clips/6ede8907-5014-49c6-9697-b49d00208e68/transcript

Do you lie awake at night bracing for everything that could go wrong, feeling like you're the only one keeping your family and your own heart safe? If you're exhausted from standing guard, this episode is for you.

This week, Rachel opens Psalm 4:8 and the devotional "The Way He Protects Your Heart" from her new book, Praying through Life's Battles. She unpacks the enemy's lie that your heart is unprotected and worry has every right to take over, and the very different strategy God gives in answer to it: when you praise Him for His protection, His peace becomes a fortress around your mind. Rachel also shares her own story of the nights her husband worked a night shift, when she stayed awake afraid, and the simple practice that finally let her lie down.

You'll discover:
The difference between guarding your heart alongside God and trying to guard it in His place
How to tell whether your watchfulness is coming from trust or from fear
The enemy's lie about your unprotected heart, and how to recognize it in real time
Why praise, not vigilance, is what invites God's peace to guard your mind
What Psalm 4:8 reveals about resting before your circumstances change

 

If you're worn out from trying to protect everything yourself, this episode will remind you that there is Someone whose watch this actually is, and He never once needs you to stay awake to help Him keep it.
