Other times, prayer 6 00:00:27,060 --> 00:00:31,580 Speaker 3: can feel like talking to a brick wall. Why is 7 00:00:31,660 --> 00:00:35,480 Speaker 3: it that sometimes it's easier to pray than others? I'm 8 00:00:35,500 --> 00:00:38,920 Speaker 3: going to be answering that question in today's episode and 9 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 3: how to overcome the challenges that make praying so hard sometimes. 10 00:00:44,770 --> 00:00:45,230 Speaker 1: Stay tuned. 11 00:00:54,670 --> 00:00:57,230 Speaker 3: Welcome back, friend.

I'm Christina Patterson, 15 00:01:07,250 --> 00:01:09,810 Speaker 3: host of the Teach Us to Pray podcast and founder 16 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 3: of Beloved Women, where I have the honor to encourage, 17 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,100 Speaker 3: equip and empower women all over the world in the 18 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 3: love of Jesus Christ and the truth of God's word. 19 00:01:19,819 --> 00:01:23,209 Speaker 3: Sometimes I will have these seasons where I just thoroughly, 20 00:01:23,790 --> 00:01:27,970 Speaker 3: enjoy praying. And honestly, this is most of the time 21 00:01:28,010 --> 00:01:30,930 Speaker 3: because it is the one time during the day where 22 00:01:31,069 --> 00:01:34,209 Speaker 3: I can just cast my cares on God and know 23 00:01:34,670 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 3: that he hears me. 24 00:01:36,420 --> 00:01:39,260 Speaker 1: I'm reminded that I'm not alone. 25 00:01:39,980 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 3: And it's then that prayer brings much comfort and healing 26 00:01:44,020 --> 00:01:49,350 Speaker 3: and restoration to my soul. which is much of the 27 00:01:49,430 --> 00:01:53,330 Speaker 3: purpose of prayer, for us to connect with God, to 28 00:01:53,470 --> 00:01:54,780 Speaker 3: refill our. 29 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: Souls with Him. 30 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 3: But if I'm honest with you, there are times where 31 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 3: prayer isn't that easy, where it feels like a real struggle. 32 00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:10,780 Speaker 3: It can cause me anxiety sometimes when I go through 33 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,110 Speaker 3: these seasons and I just don't feel like God's there 34 00:02:14,330 --> 00:02:16,610 Speaker 3: or I don't feel like I'm praying right. And it 35 00:02:16,690 --> 00:02:22,269 Speaker 3: just doesn't feel the same. I wonder if you've ever 36 00:02:22,389 --> 00:02:26,050 Speaker 3: experienced that before, or maybe you're experiencing that right now 37 00:02:26,690 --> 00:02:31,140 Speaker 3: in your own prayer life. Prayer is such a gift 38 00:02:31,300 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 3: for believers to connect with the God of the universe, the. 39 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,559 Speaker 1: God that created us. 40 00:02:38,340 --> 00:02:42,890 Speaker 3: However, I have experienced firsthand that prayer isn't always easy. 41 00:02:43,370 --> 00:02:45,370 Speaker 3: And so I want to chat with you about a 42 00:02:45,450 --> 00:02:48,570 Speaker 3: few reasons why you may be finding prayer to be 43 00:02:48,630 --> 00:02:52,250 Speaker 3: particularly hard in this season of your life and how 44 00:02:52,290 --> 00:02:58,369 Speaker 3: to overcome those challenges. First, we have to understand that 45 00:02:58,570 --> 00:03:03,250 Speaker 3: prayer is a practice. And this is why it's not 46 00:03:03,510 --> 00:03:07,770 Speaker 3: always easy to do. It's something that has to be learned. 47 00:03:08,150 --> 00:03:12,740 Speaker 3: We aren't just born with this innate gift of to pray. 48 00:03:13,540 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 3: Not most of us, not me at least. And so 49 00:03:16,740 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 3: it's something that we have to get used to doing. 50 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,139 Speaker 3: If you are new to the faith or you are 51 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 3: new to the practice of prayer, it's not going to 52 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,620 Speaker 3: always be smooth, especially when you are just getting started. 53 00:03:30,060 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 3: And if you think about it, that goes for any 54 00:03:32,220 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 3: practice that you try to learn or implement in your life. 55 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,660 Speaker 3: If you're just learning how to play basketball, you're not 56 00:03:38,700 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 3: going to automatically know how to dribble. You're going to 57 00:03:41,580 --> 00:03:43,690 Speaker 3: need someone to teach you how to do it. And 58 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,690 Speaker 3: then guess what you're going to have to do? You 59 00:03:45,750 --> 00:03:49,430 Speaker 3: are going to have to practice. I love that in 60 00:03:49,450 --> 00:03:52,270 Speaker 3: the book of Philippians, the Apostle Paul tells the church 61 00:03:52,310 --> 00:03:56,310 Speaker 3: in Philippi to instead of worrying, to pray. He tells 62 00:03:56,330 --> 00:03:59,330 Speaker 3: them to pray about everything. But then at the end 63 00:03:59,370 --> 00:04:01,660 Speaker 3: of his letter, you know what he says? He says, 64 00:04:02,030 --> 00:04:05,850 Speaker 3: put these things into practice. What that means is he 65 00:04:05,870 --> 00:04:10,020 Speaker 3: didn't expect them to get everything right off of the 66 00:04:10,100 --> 00:04:13,460 Speaker 3: first try. He's saying, I just want you to keep 67 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:18,380 Speaker 3: trying and keep practicing because that is how you get better. 68 00:04:18,820 --> 00:04:21,849 Speaker 3: So sometimes prayer is challenging just because we don't do 69 00:04:21,900 --> 00:04:25,510 Speaker 3: it often. It's challenging because we're just getting started. And 70 00:04:25,550 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 3: I know that that can be so frustrating sometimes. I 71 00:04:29,540 --> 00:04:32,100 Speaker 3: deal with this with my kids. Oftentimes, whenever they are 72 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,820 Speaker 3: learning something new, they just want to be experts at 73 00:04:34,860 --> 00:04:38,580 Speaker 3: it from the get go. They want to automatically know 74 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,550 Speaker 3: how to do something well. And I find myself constantly 75 00:04:41,610 --> 00:04:45,450 Speaker 3: reminding them, listen, you're just learning this. 76 00:04:45,870 --> 00:04:46,990 Speaker 1: You're going to make mistakes. 77 00:04:47,230 --> 00:04:49,589 Speaker 3: It's going to be challenging. There are going to be 78 00:04:49,670 --> 00:04:52,130 Speaker 3: some bumps in the road. And that's how this is 79 00:04:52,170 --> 00:04:55,110 Speaker 3: supposed to go so that you can learn from those 80 00:04:55,170 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 3: mistakes so that you can then get better. Your prayer 81 00:05:00,020 --> 00:05:04,060 Speaker 3: life with God is going to be similar. It's going 82 00:05:04,300 --> 00:05:08,950 Speaker 3: to take practice. It takes practice to know. how to 83 00:05:09,010 --> 00:05:11,770 Speaker 3: pray and what things that you feel comfortable saying and 84 00:05:11,810 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 3: what things you can say. And it takes practice to 85 00:05:15,100 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 3: also hear from God and know that he hears you 86 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,620 Speaker 3: when you pray. That's one of the reasons why we 87 00:05:22,660 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 3: have this entire podcast. If you're new to the podcast, 88 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,380 Speaker 3: I want to encourage you to go back and listen 89 00:05:28,420 --> 00:05:32,010 Speaker 3: to some previous episodes because we have some great episodes 90 00:05:32,029 --> 00:05:34,470 Speaker 3: where we teach you not only how to pray, but 91 00:05:34,510 --> 00:05:38,230 Speaker 3: different prayer practices, how to hear from God, and all 92 00:05:38,250 --> 00:05:40,969 Speaker 3: of these things that you can implement as you put 93 00:05:41,190 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 3: into practice prayer. The second challenge that we often face 94 00:05:47,339 --> 00:05:50,580 Speaker 3: when it comes to praying and why we feel like 95 00:05:50,660 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 3: prayer can be such a struggle and so hard. 96 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:57,620 Speaker 1: Sometimes is that we don't like silence. That's right. 97 00:05:57,860 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 3: I know that I've said many times on this podcast 98 00:06:01,779 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 3: that prayer is our conversation with God. And it very 99 00:06:06,540 --> 00:06:09,890 Speaker 3: much is. Now, when we think of conversation, we think 100 00:06:09,930 --> 00:06:12,630 Speaker 3: of one person talking and then another person talking. And 101 00:06:12,690 --> 00:06:17,710 Speaker 3: it's this continuous flow of back and forth conversation. Even 102 00:06:17,770 --> 00:06:20,210 Speaker 3: if you think about it, when you're talking to someone 103 00:06:20,589 --> 00:06:23,430 Speaker 3: and then there's a moment of silence where neither of 104 00:06:23,490 --> 00:06:26,619 Speaker 3: you has anything to say, it can feel kind of awkward, 105 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:27,220 Speaker 3: can't it? 106 00:06:27,970 --> 00:06:30,050 Speaker 1: Sometimes we feel that same. 107 00:06:29,910 --> 00:06:33,549 Speaker 3: Awkwardness in our prayer life with God when it feels 108 00:06:33,589 --> 00:06:37,150 Speaker 3: like things are silent. And honestly, it might just be 109 00:06:37,170 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 3: a natural pause in the conversation to hold the moment, 110 00:06:42,140 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 3: to remember the last thing that he spoke to you. Again, 111 00:06:45,820 --> 00:06:50,539 Speaker 3: I have another episode. It's episode 36, to be exact, 112 00:06:50,580 --> 00:06:53,820 Speaker 3: that teaches you how to pray when you feel like 113 00:06:53,940 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 3: God is silent. Because It is natural to feel that 114 00:06:58,660 --> 00:07:02,870 Speaker 3: way sometimes and to understand that that doesn't mean that 115 00:07:02,930 --> 00:07:05,930 Speaker 3: God's not there. It doesn't mean that he doesn't hear you. 116 00:07:06,290 --> 00:07:10,190 Speaker 3: So it's a natural thing for God to sometimes feel 117 00:07:10,250 --> 00:07:14,820 Speaker 3: silent or actually be silent in our prayer lives. This 118 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,900 Speaker 3: is challenging for us, however, because we're not comfortable with silence. 119 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 3: We let our minds run and we assume the worst 120 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 3: when there's this moment of silence that something's bad or 121 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 3: God's mad at us. 122 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 1: And it's none of that. It's none of that. Sometimes, 123 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: many times, we need that silence. 124 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:38,090 Speaker 3: In my interview with Patrice Burrell, she talked about practicing 125 00:07:38,410 --> 00:07:43,630 Speaker 3: moments of silent prayer and this practice of sitting before 126 00:07:43,670 --> 00:07:48,060 Speaker 3: the Lord. in silence and not talking, not necessarily expecting 127 00:07:48,100 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 3: to hear anything, but just truly embracing and enjoying his presence. 128 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: Because that is. 129 00:07:55,640 --> 00:08:01,930 Speaker 3: Also a prayer practice to just be still. We live 130 00:08:02,030 --> 00:08:06,750 Speaker 3: in such a loud society. There is noise everywhere. And 131 00:08:06,930 --> 00:08:09,470 Speaker 3: one thing that we don't often realize is that our 132 00:08:09,570 --> 00:08:15,310 Speaker 3: souls desperately need moments of stillness, and silence. And I 133 00:08:15,350 --> 00:08:18,610 Speaker 3: believe that sometimes that's why when we come to God 134 00:08:18,650 --> 00:08:21,650 Speaker 3: to pray, we don't hear anything. It's not because he's 135 00:08:21,750 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 3: mad at us. It's because he's giving our souls something 136 00:08:24,700 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 3: that our souls rarely receive. The beauty of resting in 137 00:08:30,780 --> 00:08:45,459 Speaker 3: silence and solitude. There's something about being still and silence 138 00:08:45,500 --> 00:08:49,250 Speaker 3: that fills our souls like nothing else. And I think 139 00:08:49,290 --> 00:08:52,570 Speaker 3: that God calls us to those moments sometimes, but we 140 00:08:52,890 --> 00:08:58,210 Speaker 3: become afraid. And so then we start talking and moving 141 00:08:58,270 --> 00:09:01,990 Speaker 3: and making something else up to do because we're uncomfortable. 142 00:09:02,429 --> 00:09:06,589 Speaker 3: But we should really embrace those moments. Think about Psalm 23, 143 00:09:06,590 --> 00:09:09,580 Speaker 3: where the psalmist says that the Lord leads him beside 144 00:09:09,670 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 3: still waters to what? To then restore his soul. Prayer 145 00:09:16,940 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 3: is hard because sometimes it feels uncomfortable, but it's in 146 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,620 Speaker 3: those uncomfortable moments we need to rest in God's presence 147 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:25,860 Speaker 3: and know that he's. 148 00:09:25,740 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: Just trying to restore our souls. 149 00:09:29,420 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 3: The third reason why sometimes prayer can be so challenging 150 00:09:32,700 --> 00:09:36,730 Speaker 3: is and hard is we might have some sin in 151 00:09:37,370 --> 00:09:41,339 Speaker 3: our lives. And this is where prayer comes in really 152 00:09:41,380 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 3: helpful because then we can repent of that sin in 153 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,579 Speaker 3: our prayer life. We can turn from it and then 154 00:09:49,140 --> 00:09:53,910 Speaker 3: approach the Lord with confidence. And I want to note 155 00:09:53,970 --> 00:09:59,030 Speaker 3: here that repentance is a process, a gift that we 156 00:09:59,130 --> 00:10:02,260 Speaker 3: have not to consume, us and make us to feel bad, 157 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:07,410 Speaker 3: but it is a freeing practice that we can participate 158 00:10:07,550 --> 00:10:10,490 Speaker 3: in when we pray to God to release our sin 159 00:10:10,550 --> 00:10:13,770 Speaker 3: to him, to confess our sin to him, so that 160 00:10:13,830 --> 00:10:17,230 Speaker 3: we can receive his forgiveness, so that we. 161 00:10:17,150 --> 00:10:19,850 Speaker 1: Can then come to him confidently. 162 00:10:20,210 --> 00:10:22,550 Speaker 3: This is the entire reason why Jesus died on the 163 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,319 Speaker 3: cross for our sins. Not for us to sit back 164 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 3: and just feel bad about all the wrong that we've 165 00:10:28,220 --> 00:10:30,620 Speaker 3: done and feel like we can't come to God. Jesus 166 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 3: died so that we. 167 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,300 Speaker 1: Could come to God. 168 00:10:35,140 --> 00:10:39,950 Speaker 3: If there is sin in your life, that is what 169 00:10:40,090 --> 00:10:44,350 Speaker 3: Jesus came to save you from. It does not have 170 00:10:44,390 --> 00:10:48,569 Speaker 3: to separate you from God anymore. If we would have 171 00:10:48,770 --> 00:10:54,110 Speaker 3: hearts to come to God in prayer and repentance and 172 00:10:54,210 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 3: let him turn our lives around. The next reason why 173 00:10:58,980 --> 00:11:02,860 Speaker 3: prayer can be so hard sometimes is because the enemy 174 00:11:03,220 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 3: will strategically attack us in our prayer lives. He does 175 00:11:09,780 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 3: this because he knows that Prayer is the way that 176 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:17,540 Speaker 3: we can defeat him. It is a spiritual practice that 177 00:11:17,620 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 3: gives us spiritual victory. Ephesians 6 tells us that our 178 00:11:21,980 --> 00:11:25,660 Speaker 3: battle isn't against flesh and blood. It's a very much 179 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,410 Speaker 3: a spiritual battle that we're all in. And guess what 180 00:11:28,429 --> 00:11:28,910 Speaker 3: prayer is? 181 00:11:29,410 --> 00:11:30,070 Speaker 1: It's spiritual. 182 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 3: It is a spiritual weapon that the Lord has given us. 183 00:11:34,540 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 3: So one thing that the enemy is going to do 184 00:11:36,980 --> 00:11:40,420 Speaker 3: to us is attack us in our prayer lives. Whenever 185 00:11:40,460 --> 00:11:43,459 Speaker 3: you think of any kind of battle between two enemies, 186 00:11:44,059 --> 00:11:45,979 Speaker 3: one thing that your enemy is going to want to 187 00:11:46,020 --> 00:11:50,500 Speaker 3: do is cut lines of communication with your allies because 188 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:54,140 Speaker 3: then you can call for help. The enemy of our 189 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 3: souls thinks very much like this. If he can stop 190 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,500 Speaker 3: us from praying, he can cut off the source of 191 00:12:01,620 --> 00:12:06,850 Speaker 3: our victory against him. Maybe he's attacking you with distracting thoughts. 192 00:12:07,250 --> 00:12:10,150 Speaker 3: Maybe you feel anxious when you start to pray. Maybe 193 00:12:10,210 --> 00:12:12,829 Speaker 3: you start thinking about past mistakes and all these bad 194 00:12:12,870 --> 00:12:15,390 Speaker 3: thoughts come into your mind or you just can't focus 195 00:12:15,730 --> 00:12:17,189 Speaker 3: or you keep falling asleep. 196 00:12:17,750 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: Whatever it is, whatever tactic the. 197 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,500 Speaker 3: Enemy is using to stop you from praying, I want 198 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,699 Speaker 3: you to pray about that too. When you start to pray, say, Lord, 199 00:12:26,250 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 3: I feel like I'm under attack. Please clear my mind 200 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 3: so that I can connect with you in this moment. 201 00:12:34,020 --> 00:12:36,620 Speaker 1: Pray about your prayer. The Bible tells us to pray 202 00:12:36,660 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: about everything. 203 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:42,770 Speaker 3: So we should pray about anything, even when it comes 204 00:12:42,890 --> 00:12:46,330 Speaker 3: to how we pray to God, that we need help 205 00:12:46,630 --> 00:12:49,470 Speaker 3: even in our prayers. Please believe this is something that 206 00:12:49,510 --> 00:12:52,250 Speaker 3: God desperately wants to help us with. He wants us 207 00:12:52,290 --> 00:12:54,580 Speaker 3: to pray to him. He's opened the door for us 208 00:12:54,620 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 3: to pray to him. So he's surely going to help 209 00:12:57,100 --> 00:12:59,510 Speaker 3: us in this area as well so that we can. 210 00:12:59,420 --> 00:13:06,510 Speaker 1: Be victorious in all areas of our lives.
