Does it feel like you’re under attack, and you can’t tell whether it’s the enemy or just a hard week wearing you down?
In this episode of Untangling Prayer, Rachel Wojo answers that question from Day 36 of her book, Praying through Life’s Battles. She opens 2 Thessalonians 3:3 and looks at what Paul wrote to a young, persecuted church while he was facing opposition of his own, and why his reminder that the Lord is faithful still gives us solid ground today. Rachel also tells the story of the day the guards her mission team had hired stopped on a remote African road and refused to go any farther, and what happened when she started praising God out loud right there.
You’ll discover:
- Why you don’t have to figure out whether it’s the enemy before you pray
- How doubt goes after God’s track record, and how praise answers it
- What Paul’s words about faith and faithfulness meant to believers under pressure
- A prayer of praise from Day 36 and a battle cry to carry into your week
Wherever this week’s battle is coming from, the Lord is faithful, and He is still your defender.
Until next time, remember: God sees you, He hears you, and He knows your needs.
