Episode 7 – Does Prayer Actually Work?
Under the Chisel Podcast
In this episode, we dig into the real meaning and power of prayer. What is it, really? Is it just a religious routine, or something much deeper? We explore how prayer is not about performance but about honest, dependent relationship with God—approaching Him with empty hands, open hearts, and a longing to align our will with His.
Rooted in Scriptures like Psalm 116:2, Philippians 4:6, and Matthew 6:5–13, we talk about how prayer releases our illusion of control, fosters humility, builds up the church, and draws us into God's purposes. We walk through the Lord’s Prayer, verse by verse, showing how each petition reveals our need for God in every part of life.
If you've ever wondered whether your prayers matter or struggled to be consistent, this episode will challenge and encourage you. It's not about getting prayer right—it's about growing real relationship with the One who listens.
