Podcasts about praying

Some weeks the news makes it impossible to look away. This is one of those weeks. Mia sets aside her pre-recorded episodes to talk about what happens to our hearts when we watch society celebrate something that is clearly evil, and what we are actually supposed to do about it.   This is not a hot take. It is not an opinion episode. It is an honest conversation about staying tender when everything around you is pushing you toward a hard, cold heart, and about why prayer is the real battleground when the comment section feels like the only option. Mia talks about guarding what you let into your spirit, why children and mothers are under such heavy attack right now, and how to stay on mission when the world feels like it is unraveling. The episode closes with a full prayer over babies, over children, and over mothers who are struggling in the dark. If you have been carrying grief, anger, or numbness this week, this one is for you.   Timestamps Time Topic 00:01 Welcome, and why this episode replaced the ones already recorded 00:54 What moments like this reveal about our collective moral compass 01:22 The Bible told us this was coming: evil called good, people loving themselves 02:18 Why this is not an opinion episode 02:47 Protecting those who cannot defend themselves 03:12 Philippians 4:8 and guarding what you scroll past 03:39 Knowing your limits: why Mia will not go down certain rabbit holes 04:36 Staying sensitive to evil without being consumed by it 05:06 When society celebrates evil, and how God still uses it to draw people in 06:18 Why people run toward God after seeing evil 06:49 Pray for the children. Pray for the mothers. 07:18 The real danger for believers: a hardened heart 08:17 Those sweet lives are with Jesus, and there is still a way home 08:45 Becoming your own moral compass 09:11 How a culture of self spills over into how we treat children 10:40 The movement of agreement is more alarming than the act 11:35 Why we cannot argue anyone into seeing it, but we can pray 12:04 Why the enemy targets the smallest and purest among us 13:00 The response is not more hate. The response is prayer. 13:29 If you are on the other side of this, here is the invitation 14:23 You cannot hold the Holy Spirit and celebrate evil at the same time 14:52 Praying over mothers, and what to do about intrusive voices 16:14 Righteous anger, and where to aim it 17:14 What Mia does not claim to know, and what she does know 17:40 There is always a way out, and we still get to choose 18:38 Nobody is too far gone 19:32 How a hardened heart quietly kills your prayer life 20:02 Leading well from whatever platform you have 21:00 Gather your people and pray 22:27 Fight in prayer instead of fighting in the comments 22:56 Full prayer over babies, children, and mothers 25:19 Closing encouragement and what is coming next   Scriptures Referenced Quoted directly Philippians 4:8 (03:12) - Whatever is true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, and admirable, think on these things. Mia's filter for what she lets into her feed and her spirit.   Referenced and paraphrased throughout Isaiah 5:20 (01:22, 22:27) - Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness. 2 Timothy 3:1-5 (01:22, 08:45) - In the last days people will be lovers of themselves, proud, without natural affection. John 10:10 (03:39, 12:04, 26:17) - The thief comes only to steal, kill, and destroy. Jesus came so we could have life, and have it abundantly. Romans 3:23 (13:29) - All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 6:23 (13:29) - The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus. 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 (13:55) - Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day. 1 Corinthians 10:13 (17:40) - God is faithful. He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear, but will provide a way out. Romans 10:13 (19:02) - Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. 1 Kings 19:11-12 (19:02) - The still small voice. James 4:7 (14:52, 16:14) - Submit to God, resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Philippians 2:9-11 (15:22) - At the name of Jesus every knee will bow. Ephesians 6:12 (13:00, 19:32) - Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces in the heavenly realms. Philippians 4:6-7 (24:21) - The peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Luke 12:7 (26:17) - Even the hairs on your head are numbered. Psalm 139:13-16 (26:17) - You knit me together in my mother's womb. I am fearfully and wonderfully made. You are not a mistake.   Call to Action Summary 1. Guard your heart and your feed. Do not consume every piece of evil available to you. You cannot unsee what you see, and a spirit worn down by images of harm is not a spirit ready to do what God called you to do. Use Philippians 4:8 as a filter.   2. Refuse the hardened heart. The temptation right now is to go cold, write off society, and stop caring. That is the loss. A soft heart is what keeps you praying, and a hardened heart is what quietly ends your prayer life.   3. Go to battle in prayer, not in the comment section. Pray protection over babies and children, in the womb and out of it. Pray over mothers, including mothers who are pregnant, overwhelmed, or walking through postpartum depression. Pray that they hear God's voice instead of the enemy's. If you know a mother in that place, tell her to call on the name of Jesus, and pray over her yourself.   4. If you are far from God, come back. Nobody is too far gone. Open your Bible. Get into a church. Read what God says about how He feels about children, and about you. It is not too late to get right with Him. Gather your people. Whatever your circle is, family, team, small group, business, bring them together and pray over the children and the mothers out loud.

Bravado is not the same as courage. In this episode, John Grdina explores authentic manhood, faith, community, and serving others, making the case that true strength lies in humility, service, and spiritual connection, not dominance or conquest.John breaks down the cultural lie of bravado culture and contrasts it with Jesus' own teaching on leadership: deny yourself, take up your cross, and serve. Drawing on James 5:16, this episode digs into the power of prayer shared in community, why gratitude and praise anchor a man in his faith, and how a simple act of service from a young woman on a cross country team became a real-life picture of everything this episode is about. This is a call for men to stop mentoring from the sidelines and start leading through humility, presence, and sacrifice.Key topics covered:- The contrast between bravado and true courage- The importance of fatherhood and mentorship- Jesus' teachings on leadership and humility- The role of prayer and community in strength- The example of young women serving others- The call to serve rather than dominate- The significance of gratitude and praise- Practical ways to serve and lead in daily lifeTakeaways:- Bravado is not the same as courage; true strength is humility- Real manhood is shown through service, not conquest- Prayer is a power source, meant to be shared in community- Men must be present and active in mentoring and leading- Gratitude and praise keep a man anchored in faith- Serving others is the ultimate expression of strength- Authentic leadership is rooted in humility and sacrificeChapters:00:00 The cultural lie of bravado and false strength01:51 Jesus' definition of manhood: denying self and serving04:06 The importance of praise and gratitude in daily life06:29 The example of young women serving in real life08:25 Praying for humility, strength, and community09:12 Closing prayer and encouragement to men to act nowIf this episode helps you, like it, share it, and subscribe.

Learn what it means to stand before God on behalf of your children, trust His character when you do not know the outcome, and find hope in knowing that He hears every prayer.Whether you are praying for a young child, a struggling teen, or an adult son or daughter, be encouraged that your prayers matter because the God who remembered Abraham still hears and responds today.Key TakeawaysWhat intercession really is and why it is so importantPray God's character when you do not know how He will answer your prayersPractical ways to pray intentionally for your children every dayScriptures Mentioned: Genesis 17-19, Matthew 6:9-13, Luke 18:1-8, Psalm 121:2Connect with Perspective MinistriesIf this episode encouraged you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with another parent or caregiver who needs hope.

What does it look like when hope finds you in the last place you expect it? This conversation takes us deep into that question, exploring how a scrap of paper on a law library floor became the beginning of a life transformed. The passage from Jeremiah 29 -- where God promises thoughts of peace, a future, and a hope to those who seek Him wholeheartedly -- anchors the entire discussion. It is a reminder that God's plans for us are not canceled by our worst decisions or our hardest seasons. Whether we are in a place of physical confinement or an internal prison of fear and doubt, the message is the same: God has always been at work, even when we could not see it. We are challenged to look back at the moments we survived, the news we thought would break us, and recognize the hand of God moving through all of it. Hope, as the Bible tells us in Romans 5, does not disappoint. Faith, as Hebrews 11 describes, is the substance of things not yet seen. Together, these truths form an anchor for anyone who feels like the walls are closing in.

My assistants and I have chosen special, old podcast episodes to share with you so that I can take a break from that for a few weeks. After all these years of sharing my life and encouragement with you, there are some episodes that have particularly resonated with my listeners and that have had the most listens. I am looking forward to sharing these episodes with you over the next few weeks.

385 – Is loving your enemies still relevant?One of the most challenging commandments Jesus has given us is to love our enemies. This was not a request nor a mere suggestion to follow through on only if we want to. It's not just a recommendation or advice. It's a command directly from Jesus's heart to yours and mine.But what is the point of loving someone who is mean to you, has abused you, and has done everything in their power to oppose you and what you stand for?Why on earth did Jesus want us to love our enemies?In this week's episode, that's exactly what we'll be talking about:Why Jesus wants us to love our enemiesHow to do itThe blessings that come when you doThink what would happen in the world today if all those who claim to be Christians actually obeyed Jesus's command to love your enemies. The whole world would feel the difference. The change would be immediate. Who do you need to love today?∞∞∞∞∞∞∞Previous blog post mentioned: Thoughts on Libya and Muammar QadaffiSHOW NOTES: For a full transcript and all the Bible quotes, go to thebiblespeakstoyou.com/385Text me your questions or comments.Support the showIf you enjoy the podcast, please rate and leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify__________________James Early, the Jesus Mindset Coach, is a Bible teacher, speaker, and podcaster.

Is it possible to pray every day and still miss what God is actually saying? This week, Pastor Alvin closes out our "Wait on the Lord" series with a message titled "Intimate with God." Drawing from 1 Corinthians 2:14, 1 Corinthians 14:14, and Romans 8:26, he reminds us that Christianity is spiritual by nature, and real intimacy with God requires more than our natural understanding. There has to be a conversion, a shift from praying our will to praying His. Using Peter's rebuke of Jesus in Matthew 16 as a picture, Pastor Alvin shows how soulish prayers, ones rooted in emotion, understanding, or willpower, can sound faithful and still miss what God is actually doing. This message challenges us to move past praying to God and into praying from Him, trading our need to understand for the deeper intimacy of being led by His Spirit (Romans 8:14-15). How close are you to God? And how much are you willing to let Him lead? Scripture references: 1 Corinthians 2:14 1 Corinthians 14:14 Romans 8:26 Matthew 16:21-24 Romans 8:14-15 ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

What if the peace you've been praying for requires you to stop entertaining the things that keep disturbing it?We can pray for peace, ask God for clarity, and say we're tired of the chaos—but still leave the door open to the people, patterns, and situations that keep bringing it back.In You're Praying for Peace but Entertaining Chaos, Nyra and Tyreen get honest about the role we sometimes play in our own disruption. Through their personal experiences with faith, boundaries, and protecting their peace, they unpack what it looks like to recognize the chaos we've become comfortable with—and take responsibility for what we continue to allow.If you've been asking for peace while holding onto something you already know is disturbing it, this conversation might be the one you need.Take your walk, press play, and ask yourself: What am I still allowing that no longer belongs in my life?

In this episode we'll talk about:Why receiving what you're praying for can require more capacity than you realizeHow preparation often begins before the opportunity, relationship, or provision arrivesWhy answered prayers create responsibilities as well as blessingsHow to identify what your future life may require from you todayWhy preparation isn't about earning God's blessings—it's about becoming a better steward of what arrivesAnd more… START HERE…→ Join The Niche Is You® — my Substack (22K+) — Weekly essays, the full workshop library, the private community + the Quarterly Challenges. → https://mattgottesman.substack.com/aboutNEW HERE…→ 6 Days to Clarity Workshop — clarity for your time, energy, money, creativity, work & play. → https://mattgottesman.com/reverse-engineer-your-life (FREE)CONNECT WITH ME…→ Instagram — @mattgottesman→ TikTok — @mattgottesman→ YouTube — @mattgottesmanRESOURCES…→ Write • Design • Build — my Content Creator Studio & OS masterclass (Included when you join my Substack) — Growing the niche of you, your audience, reach, voice, passion & income — CLICK HERE→ Recommended Book List — CLICK HERE→ Apparel — thenicheisyou.comOTHER RELATED EPISODES:Faith Isn't Knowing the Whole Path… It's Taking the Next Honest StepApple: https://apple.co/3MB62IuSpotify: https://bit.ly/4rZw3RN

Praying again for things we've prayed through already.

Today we are chatting about a spiritual discipline that has a lot of incorrect teaching in churches about it. Therefore, many Christians are confused about it and fearful of it, because they don't understand what the Bible says about this habit. People are missing out BIG TIME on power, closeness with the Lord, wisdom from heaven and many health benefits.Tune in today, with a teachable heart, so you don't keep missing out on the amazing benefits listed above for those who engage in this beautiful gift from God.Today we chat about:Verses that people use to explain away this gift and why their interpretations are wrong The health benefits of this giftScriptures about this gift making people more bold in their faithHow this very healthy habit is scriptural and is available to all Christians and is actually part of the armor of GodHow I incorporate this habit into my daily life practically (it helps me hear from God more often and more clearly!)The way to access this gift (you need to be a Christian first)The way this gift makes your prayers aligned with God's will and therefore more effectiveWhy Satan hates this habitHow this gift makes you stronger/boosts your immune system and even makes you a better preacher!Stories of how this spiritual discipline has saved lives when people yield to the Holy Spirit's prompting to use itResources mentioned:John Bever teaching on tongues: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGYfQAUJmTQ&t=2s⁠My past episode on tongues: ⁠Praying in Tongues Helps me with Anxiety (it's a VERY healthy habit!)⁠Connect with Nyla:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Nyla's IG ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Nyla's website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Nyla's Christian business podcast On the Job with God⁠⁠⁠

Praying your demons away doesn't always work.In this one, Ian is joined by his friend Jacob as they delve into the unsolved, violent, and dramatic history of the Beast of Gévaudan (and yes, Ian just learned he can make the little accent over the "é"). A seemingly mythical beast is terrorizing 1700s rural France, maiming and killing hundreds. And from the king's palace to the outskirts of society, panic is rapidly spreading as not one person can figure out how to stop the beast. Also, Jacob highlights the failure of Arizona's public schools. Ian spoils Christianity's biggest plot twist.

The Catholic practice of praying the rosary traces back to a priest named Dominic. In 1208 A.D., he claimed to receive a vision of Mary directing him to use it as a spiritual weapon. Then in the fifteenth century, a Dominican friar named Alanus de Rupe alleged that Mary communicated 15 promises for those who pray the rosary, some of which are very profound. Are these “promises” a blessed spiritual reality or the perpetration of a false hope?Comparative religion website: www.thetruelight.net Ministry website: www.shreveministries.org The Catholic Project: www.toCatholicswithlove.org Video channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministries All audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.

384 – How often do you think of and say Jesus is Lord?One of the hallmarks of the way Christians refer to Jesus is to say Jesus is Lord. Sometimes referring to Jesus as their Lord is an open window on the deep sincerity of their devotion to Jesus and commitment to follow him at all costs.But  all too often, there are times when some Christians refer to Jesus as Lord, almost too casually, sort of like it's just part of his name or title, without the reverence or depth of loyalty and commitment to Jesus that word “Lord” implies.In this week's episode:What does it actually mean when you say Jesus is Lord? What kind of relationship with and commitment to Christ does it imply?What does it require of you? And what does Christ provide you in return?∞∞∞∞∞∞∞SHOW NOTES: For a full transcript and all the Bible quotes, go to thebiblespeakstoyou.com/384Text me your questions or comments.Support the showIf you enjoy the podcast, please rate and leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify__________________James Early, the Jesus Mindset Coach, is a Bible teacher, speaker, and podcaster.
