  Hello, and welcome
• 1:06
  to divine five one five.
• 1:08
  Today's episode, I'm gonna be talking about
• 1:11
  praying before crisis comes.
• 1:14
  The scripture I'm using today comes from Proverbs
• 1:17
  three
• 1:17
  five through six.
• 1:20
  Trust in the Lord with all your heart
• 1:22
  and lean not to your own understanding.
• 1:25
  In all your ways, submit to him,
• 1:27
  and he will make your paths
• 1:32
  straight. Prayer is not just for emergencies.
• 1:36
  It is
• 1:37
  preparation.
• 1:39
  When prayer is a habit,
• 1:41
  peace becomes a lifestyle.
• 1:45
  Waiting until a crisis hits makes prayer feel
• 1:48
  desperate,
• 1:49
  frantic,
• 1:52
  and out of control
• 1:54
  with our lives.
• 1:57
  But praying daily
• 1:59
  builds spiritual strength before trouble comes.
• 2:03
  Prayer prepares us
• 2:05
  for storms so that they don't shake us.
• 2:09
  It gives us wisdom,
• 2:11
  peace, and discernment.
• 2:14
  When a crisis comes, we don't panic.
• 2:19
  We trust God because we have already been
• 2:23
  walking with him
• 2:25
  confidently
• 2:26
  and intimately,
• 2:28
  knowing that he is our constant
• 2:31
  refuge,
• 2:32
  not just our emergency
• 2:35
  contact.
• 2:37
  Let's pray.
• 2:39
  Heavenly father,
• 2:41
  teach me to seek you daily,
• 2:43
  not only
• 2:45
  in times of trouble and crisis.
• 2:48
  Let prayer be my first response,
• 2:51
  not my last resort.
• 2:54
  Fill me with peace as I
• 2:57
  apply your word daily.
• 2:59
  Reinforce my trust
• 3:01
  as I walk closely with you,
• 3:03
  And I will give you all the honor,
• 3:05
  the glory, and the praise.
• 3:08
  In Jesus' name,
• 3:09
  amen.
• 3:15
