Ephesians 6:18
Pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
Prayer doesn’t have to be polished.
It doesn’t have to be long.
And it definitely doesn’t have to wait until things fall apart.
This conversation is a reminder that prayer is meant to be woven into everyday life — the good moments, the stressful ones, the joyful celebrations, and the quiet wrestles no one else sees.
We talk about:
Why God invites us to pray about everything, not just the “serious” stuff
What it looks like to pray with the Spirit, not just from your own strength
Praying for people in the moment, not just saying “I’ll pray for you”
Interceding for others when you don’t know what to say
And learning to stay connected to God throughout the day, not just in quiet time
If prayer feels awkward, inconsistent, or hard — you’re not failing.
You’re learning relationship.
Sometimes prayer is powerful words.
Sometimes it’s silence.
Sometimes it’s stopping mid-day and saying,
“Holy Spirit, I need you right now.”
And that counts.
