Prayers of REST - 9.9 Breaking Free from Doubt

Do you struggle with doubt about your faith?
I don't know about you, but I find such comfort in the realistic portraits in scripture.
There's the one father who brings his son to Jesus to be healed, and he says, "Teacher if you can do anything, have mercy." And Jesus's response is, "If I can? Everything is possible to the one who believes." Perhaps you find yourself in that space of doubt. "God, do you care? Can you do anything?"
If that's where you are, today's prayer is for you.
This fall on the Prayers of REST Podcast we are getting honest with God about our temptations and struggles so that, by the power of the Holy Spirit at work within us, we can break free from the spiritual strongholds in our lives. Join us each week as we:

R - Recite God's Goodness
E - Express Your Neediness
S - Seek His Stillness
T - Trust His Faithfulness

If we want to break free from the sins and temptations holding us captive, it is so important that we pray proactively and repeatedly. That’s why my team created a special resource just for you!

Prayers of REST - 12.26 Behind-the-Scenes Conversations, with Asheritah & Hannah

What comes to mind when you think about walking with God? Throughout history, God has always desired companionship and friendship with the humans He created in His own image. I like to picture this dynamic of friendship and obedience as Walking with God. Every email, every conference call, every meal prepped, every floor swept has the capacity to hold divine purpose because we are divinely indwelled by God’s own Spirit. Even when sin marred humans’ relationship with God, He remained undeterred in His desire to walk with us.When we truly understand the privilege of walking with God in our daily lives, our mundane becomes contoured by the divine. Let’s turn to the example of Jesus to learn from Him how to joyfully walk with God. Listen in!

Prayers of REST - 5.20 Depressed

5.20 Depressed

Prayers of REST

We all struggle with feelings of depression and despair from time to time. Some of us may battle depression chronically or be diagnosed even with clinical depression, while others of us dip into short bouts now and then.

If depression is an ongoing struggle, may I encourage you to get help from a medical professional, and get honest with God about it too? Bring your feelings of despair to the Lord in prayer and process this hard emotion with Him.

Even if you aren't struggling with depression right now, take some time to pray along with us so that when you do face times of despair, you'll know how to pray your way through them.
