Summary

What if your prayers could push away negativity and bring peace into every situation? In this episode, we’ll explore how praying from our new identity in Christ shifts our focus away from our circumstances and onto God’s promises.

Key Scriptures:

+ 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18. Rejoice always, pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

+ Galatians 5:6. For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but faith working through love.

+ Romans 8:27. And He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
