Why God Answers Prayers Differently – Understanding His Purpose in the Waiting (Philippians 4:6-9) (Ep -8)

Why does God answer some prayers while others seem to go unnoticed? In this deeply personal episode of The Week Ahead With God Podcast, Ken Robinson opens up about a moment when everything seemed to go wrong—and how one scripture changed everything.

Drawing from Philippians 4:6-9, Ken shares how learning to pray with peace and surrender brought not just an answered prayer, but a transformation of perspective. When faced with a $5,000 car repair bill and no idea how the money would come, Ken and his wife Wendy turned to the only place they could—God. What happened next wasn’t just surprising; it was supernatural.

In this episode, you’ll learn what it really means to present your requests to God “with thanksgiving” and how peace can arrive before the provision. This isn’t just about a miracle story—it’s about learning how to pray from a place of trust, not panic.

If you’ve ever wrestled with anxiety, unanswered prayers, or wondering if God is really listening, this episode will encourage you to keep going. Ken’s story and this passage from Philippians are a powerful reminder that God hears, God responds, and God’s peace is available—even before the answer comes.
