  - What if kneeling at the throne became more
• 0:02
  - than a moment?
• 0:04
  - Kneeling at the throne was written to help
• 0:06
  - you experience the power of prayer through God's
• 0:09
  - word.
• 0:10
  - But prayer was never meant to end when
• 0:12
  - you closed the book. It was meant to
• 0:14
  - become a way of living.
• 0:16
  - That's why we created the inner chamber.
• 0:19
  - The inner chamber is more than a membership.
• 0:21
  - It's a Christ centered community where believers come
• 0:24
  - together to deepen their relationship with God through
• 0:27
  - intentional prayer, biblical teaching, and authentic encouragement.
• 0:31
  - Whether you are just beginning your prayer journey
• 0:33
  - or you've been walking with the Lord for
• 0:35
  - years, the inner chamber provides practical tools to
• 0:38
  - help you move from simply knowing about prayer
• 0:41
  - to living a life shaped by it.
• 0:43
  - As a member, you'll receive monthly bible based
• 0:46
  - teaching that strengthens your faith, guided prayer experiences
• 0:50
  - rooted in scripture,
• 0:51
  - practical strategies for applying prayer to everyday challenges,
• 0:56
  - encouragement and accountability
• 0:59
  - from a growing community of believers.
• 1:02
  - If kneeling at the throne helped you take
• 1:04
  - your first step, the inner chamber is where
• 1:06
  - you continue the journey
• 1:08
  - because prayer isn't simply an event.
• 1:11
  - It's a lifestyle.

  - Welcome to the divine five one five podcast.
• 1:34
  - Here is today's prayer.
• 1:41
  - Hello, and welcome to divine five one five
• 1:45
  - daily prayers with Valerie Rocha. I'm your host,
• 1:48
  - and I'd like to welcome you to today's
• 1:50
  - prayer episode entitled Finding Hope When Life Feels
• 1:53
  - Heavy.
• 1:54
  - Scriptural text comes from Romans fifteen thirteen
• 1:57
  - and reads, may the God of hope fill
• 1:59
  - you with all joy and peace as you
• 2:01
  - trust in him.
• 2:05
  - Now
• 2:07
  - we have talked about in previous times
• 2:10
  - how absolutely
• 2:12
  - excruciatingly
• 2:13
  - painful sometimes life is.
• 2:16
  - And the truth be told, disappointment has a
• 2:19
  - way of making hope feel very distant.
• 2:23
  - And when prayers seem unanswered or circumstances
• 2:26
  - don't change as quickly as we'd like,
• 2:29
  - it's
• 2:30
  - sometimes a lot easier to become discouraged and
• 2:33
  - just throw in the towel
• 2:35
  - rather than
• 2:36
  - pressing in a little bit more and trusting
• 2:40
  - God.
• 2:41
  - But maybe
• 2:43
  - you don't have the energy for that.
• 2:47
  - So how do you deal with that? How
• 2:49
  - do you deal with, I don't even have
• 2:51
  - the strength. Right?
• 2:53
  - Well,
• 2:54
  - we talked about it in an early episode,
• 2:58
  - taking that weight and dropping it like a
• 3:01
  - heavy rock.
• 3:03
  - Because the truth of the matter is our
• 3:05
  - hope is not rooted in circumstances.
• 3:08
  - Life is gonna come, and we don't get
• 3:10
  - to choose
• 3:11
  - what,
• 3:13
  - comes at us. We have to choose how
• 3:15
  - we deal with it.
• 3:17
  - And the way we deal with it is
• 3:19
  - to remain faithful in God.
• 3:22
  - So
• 3:23
  - take heart,
• 3:25
  - know that God is always with us,
• 3:28
  - and it's his hope, not ours, that fills
• 3:31
  - us with the joy and peace that surpasses
• 3:34
  - all understanding.
• 3:36
  - Having said that,
• 3:38
  - allow me to pray for you.
• 3:41
  - Heavenly father,
• 3:43
  - breathe
• 3:44
  - into us fresh hope
• 3:46
  - into our hearts today.
• 3:49
  - Help
• 3:51
  - lift us
• 3:53
  - up spiritually, mentally,
• 3:55
  - and emotionally.
• 3:58
  - Help our eyes to
• 4:01
  - rise and be focused above our circumstances,
• 4:05
  - and fix them on your promises.
• 4:10
  - Strengthen our trust, father,
• 4:12
  - in your faithfulness
• 4:14
  - and not at the things that we see
• 4:17
  - around us.
• 4:19
  - And remind us that you are always working,
• 4:23
  - even when we cannot see it.
• 4:26
  - Fill us with the joy of your love,
• 4:29
  - your peace, and renewed confidence
• 4:32
  - in your goodness, and we will bless you
• 4:34
  - in Jesus' name.
• 4:39
  - Here's today's kingdom invitation.
• 4:42
  - Choose one promise
• 4:44
  - from scripture
• 4:46
  - and carry it with you as a reminder
• 4:49
  - that your hope is anchored in Christ.
