Have you ever prayed for something you couldn’t seem to see come to pass?
In this episode of Elevated Destiny, LaKesha unpacks the story of Hannah. A woman whose pain pushed her into God’s presence and whose perseverance in prayer birthed a prophet who changed a nation.
Through deep reflection on 1 Samuel 1–2, we explore how Hannah’s tears became intercession, how grace was revealed in her waiting, and how surrender transformed her barrenness into breakthrough.
You’ll discover:
-
Why pain can be holy ground when placed in God’s hands
-
How to shift from praying for relief to praying for release
-
The difference between faith that pleads and faith that partners
-
And how obedience turns personal requests into generational purpose
If you’ve been in a waiting season — holding onto promises that feel delayed — this message will remind you that grace still remembers your name and that God specializes in turning pain into purpose.
🎧 Tune in to learn how to posture your heart like Hannah and pray prayers that shape destiny.
And don’t forget to join LaKesha daily on Swellcast @Elev8eddestiny for bite-sized reflections that will help you deepen your prayer life and grow in faith all week long.
