Feelings should not be ignored. They are indicators as to what deeper may be going on within us that needs to be addressed. In today's podcast, we discuss some of the feelings that challenge our desire to pray so that we can find the faith to keep praying anyway.Key Takeaways:• In your feelings of grief and sadness, God is with you. He is not only with you; the Bible tells us He is close.• Our struggle with doubt can often be rooted in our view of God and what we know about Him or what we don't know about Him.• God is not mad at you; He is mad for you.• When we feel guilty, the last thing we need to do is run from God, that is the time we need to run to God to receive the grace and forgiveness our souls desperately need.

Desperate Times Call for Desperate Prayers

Have you ever had to lift up a desperate prayer? Throughout the Bible, we see people in desperate need to seek God through prayer. In today's podcast, we'll look at their desperate prayers, and God's responses to those prayers, that we may learn more about prayer in our own desperate situations. Key Takeaways:• In our desperate times, there is a pouring out and a casting. It's not holding in all our feelings and emotions while trying our best to act as if they don't exist. It's being real with God about what we want, what's hurting us, and what's troubling us.• It's important not only to be desperate for our prayer to simply be answered but to be desperate for the God who answers prayers.• We serve a God who knows what it's like to be desperate, to suffer, to hurt. We are never alone. When we find ourselves in situations where God is all we have, we often discover He's all we ever needed.

Introducing: The Bible Never Said That

Hi Teach Us to Pray listeners! Today, we want to introduce you to another show in the LifeAudio network, called The Bible Never Said That, hosted by Chara Donahue. The Bible Never Said That is all about taking a hard look at popular spiritual statements and phrases that sound like they come from scripture, but aren’t anywhere in the Bible. Chara is in a new series called “Out of Context,” where she looks at a verse or section of scripture that is often taken out of context. In the episode we’re sharing with you today, Chara investigates one of the most popular verses in the Bible, Jeremiah 29:11. This verse is plastered in walls, coffee mugs, and diaries. But without its historical and scriptural context, we miss its original intent and, thus, its meaning for us now. Don’t despair – if this verse comforts you, it still will when Chara’s done.

Introducing: Reframed The Power of Perspective

**Note to our Listeners! If you love listening to "Teach Us to Pray" we want to introduce you to a new LifeAudio podcast we think you'll enjoy: "Reframed: The Power of Perspective." We're dropping the first episode in your feed this morning. If you like it and want to listen to more, just search for "Reframed: The Power of Perspective" in your favorite podcast app.A.W. Tozer once stated, “What comes to mind when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” This is the Power of Perspective. Each of us has a unique outlook that shapes our view of God, ourselves, and the world. A perspective is simply a specific viewpoint. Much like a camera, a perspective is built upon a unique frame, focus, and filter. The most powerful aspect of one’s perspective is that it directly orients their thoughts, feelings, attitudes, and behaviors. The 3 Parts of Our Perspective: 1. A Frame - Much like the frame of the camera, our perspective works within the limitations of the knowledge available to us. It’s within this frame we see only what is within our perception, unaware of what is right outside the border. 2. A Filter - This is our internal bias. This is made up of our past experiences or our personal values, which greatly influence how we see the world, ourselves, others, and God. Filters significantly impact our perspective, what is seen or not seen. 3. A Focus - This is the most important aspect of forming our perspective. It is largely influenced by the messages we have received in the past, our formative experiences. Unfortunately, our perspectives are not always grounded in truth and often fueled by distortion, irrational beliefs, and distortions. In this first episode of the podcast, Carley shares her own personal journey of faith and her passion for creating connections between biblical theology and the practical steps found in the themes of therapy. If know our perspectives are often distorted, what do we do? How do we realign our faith and our feelings? This is where reframing our thoughts is so vitally important. Carley unpacks how can we begin to do this in our daily lives. Follow Carley: Website | Instagram | FacebookEpisode Image Credit: Getty/Iland19See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you ever thought you heard from God but then doubted yourself later on? "Was that really God," you question.

In today's podcast, we discuss five ways to recognize God's voice to help you further in this area.

Episode 10: Desperate Times Call for Desperate Prayers

Have you ever had to lift up a desperate prayer? Throughout the Bible, we see people in desperate need to seek God through prayer. In today's podcast, we'll look at their desperate prayers, and God's responses to those prayers, that we may learn more about prayer in our own desperate situations. Key Takeaways:• In our desperate times, there is a pouring out and a casting. It's not holding in all our feelings and emotions while trying our best to act as if they don't exist. It's being real with God about what we want, what's hurting us, and what's troubling us.• It's important not only to be desperate for our prayer to simply be answered but to be desperate for the God who answers prayers.• We serve a God who knows what it's like to be desperate, to suffer, to hurt. We are never alone. When we find ourselves in situations where God is all we have, we often discover He's all we ever needed.

Episode 6: 5 Tips for More Effective Prayer

In the Christian life, prayer is powerful. Through the power of prayer, lives are changed, bodies healed, and hearts transformed. The good thing about prayer is it doesn't have to be complicated. The five-minute prayer at the sink washing dishes can be just as effective as the hour prayer in your prayer closet. The effectiveness of your prayer does not have to do with rituals, long length, and big words. In today's podcast, we discuss five practical and simple ways that lead to more effective prayer.Key Takeaways:• Once we pray about it, we need to let the worry go, and trust that whatever we prayed about is safely in God's hands. • Prayer schedules take the pressure off feeling like we need to spend 12 hours praying for everything at once by conveniently breaking up our prayer time.• When we don't place limits on when we should pray, it becomes a natural rhythm in our lives, and we become less likely to skip this powerful discipline.

Episode 5: When You Don't Feel Like Praying

As much as we've learned about the numerous benefits of prayer so far in this podcast, you'd think it would always come easy. Sometimes we just don't feel like praying.

In today's podcast, we discuss some of the feelings that challenge our desire to pray so that we can find the faith to keep praying anyway.Key Takeaways:• In your feelings of grief and sadness, God is with you. He is not only with you; the Bible tells us He is close.• Our struggle with doubt can often be rooted in our view of God and what we know about Him or what we don't know about Him.• God is not mad at you; He is mad for you.• When we feel guilty, the last thing we need to do is run from God, that is the time we need to run to God to receive the grace and forgiveness our souls desperately need.

Episode 3: When You Pray

As important as it is to know how to pray, it is also important to understand how not to pray. As believers and friends of God, we have a lot of liberty when it comes to prayer. We are not restricted when it comes to where we pray, the structure of our prayers, and even what we pray for. The Lord's Prayer that Jesus used as an example to teach His disciples and us how to pray is just that. An example to teach us how to pray. At the same time, Jesus also provided instruction on things we should not do when we pray. In this podcast, we will take a more in-depth look into Jesus' teachings on how not to pray.Key Takeaways:•When it comes to prayer, it's all about God. •We don't pray to be seen by others; we pray to be seen by God.•When we come to God sincerely in prayer, we don't have to have all the right words or correct speech.•Prayer is not about being perfect; it's about connecting with the God who perfectly loves us.
