Have you ever faced something so big you didn't even know how to start praying about it?

In this episode, we sit with a king named Jehoshaphat who caught news of an army he could not beat, and we watch what he did instead of panicking. His prayer in 2 Chronicles 20 hands us a pattern for the battles we never asked for, the ones that show up before we have any idea what to do. The place where we don't know what to do turns out to be the exact place God's answer begins.

You'll discover:

How fear and faith can sit in the same chair, and why that isn't a sign your faith is failing

Why "we do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you" is one of the strongest prayers in Scripture

What it means that the battle is not yours, but God's, and how that changes the way you pray

Why Jehoshaphat's people worshiped before the battle was won, and how George Müller did the same thing in front of a table of empty plates

A simple six-step way to take whatever you're facing and turn it into a prayer this week

Whatever you're walking into, you don't have to know what to do. You just have to know Who to look to.

Untangling Prayer with Rachel Wojo

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

Untangling Prayer is for women who want to pray but feel stuck, exhausted, or at a loss for words. Each week, we dig into the hard questions —like how to pray when God feels silent or when you're too tired to try. Then we get practical. You'll walk away with real steps you can take today.

We all need the reminder that prayer matters, so every episode ends with a true story of answered prayer to remind you: God is listening, and He still answers prayer today.

I'm Rachel Wojo. I've prayed from hospital hallways and from the floor of my closet. I've been Hannah, pleading for something impossible. Prayer isn't a theory. It's my guide for both surviving and thriving.
