- 1:04- Welcome to the divine five one five podcast.
- 1:08- Here is today's prayer.
- 1:15- Hello, and welcome to today's
- 1:18- daily prayer.
- 1:20- We're gonna be tackling what happens when self
- 1:24- doubt makes you question everything.
- 1:28- You know,
- 1:30- all of us at one time or another
- 1:33- struggle with second guessing ourselves,
- 1:35- myself included.
- 1:39- And I'm gonna
- 1:41- use myself as an example here
- 1:44- and just express that
- 1:47- as you all know, I love praying. I
- 1:49- love being an intercessor. I love
- 1:52- being
- 1:53- able to help and see people delivered.
- 1:56- But I recently had an experience where
- 2:00- I second guessed myself.
- 2:02- Even after all of this
- 2:04- time knowing that I'm an intercessor,
- 2:08- I was having a struggle
- 2:10- wondering if
- 2:13- the prayer ministry that God had gave me
- 2:15- was actually what I was supposed to do.
- 2:19- And the way that the Lord dealt with
- 2:21- the situation was
- 2:23- he actually had me call someone
- 2:26- that I had prayed for.
- 2:29- Now
- 2:29- let me just say,
- 2:31- that's not unusual.
- 2:33- What was unusual
- 2:35- was the person that he told me to
- 2:37- call, which caused me to look straight up
- 2:39- to the ceiling with a gigantic question mark.
- 2:44- Nonetheless,
- 2:46- I went ahead and obeyed what he told
- 2:48- me.
- 2:50- And as I expressed to the person
- 2:53- what it was that the Lord had instructed
- 2:55- for me to tell them,
- 2:58- they followed
- 3:00- the instructions,
- 3:01- which was to pray for me.
- 3:03- And as they did that,
- 3:06- the Holy Spirit began to talk to me
- 3:10- He began to remind me
- 3:14- That the prayer coaching that I was doing
- 3:17- actually mattered
- 3:19- The mentoring
- 3:20- that I was doing, sharing
- 3:23- with others
- 3:24- how to make the connection through prayer
- 3:27- actually mattered
- 3:28- And the proof
- 3:29- was
- 3:31- sitting right there in front of me, praying
- 3:34- over me
- 3:38- What I love about God is He
- 3:41- never gets off track He never
- 3:44- loses focus
- 3:46- And even after praying and seeking God, we
- 3:49- can sometimes wonder if we've heard correctly.
- 3:55- And self doubt can create confusion and keep
- 3:58- us from moving forward in obedience.
- 4:03- But take heart.
- 4:05- God's not afraid
- 4:09- or worried about you questioning.
- 4:12- He just wants to see if you're going
- 4:14- to use your faith and
- 4:17- apply obedience.
- 4:20- That being said,
- 4:22- let's pray.
- 4:24- Father God,
- 4:26- when doubt tries to cloud our thinking,
- 4:29- remind us of your faithfulness.
- 4:33- Help us trust that you are able to
- 4:36- guide us as we seek you sincerely.
- 4:40- Give us the confidence
- 4:42- in your ability
- 4:43- to lead
- 4:45- our willingness to follow.
- 4:48- Strengthen our discernment
- 4:49- and quiet the unnecessary
- 4:51- doubt.
- 4:52- In Jesus' name, amen.
