The Bible is filled with many powerful and eloquently spoken prayers. However, that doesn’t mean only eloquent prayers move God. And, thankfully eloquent words are not required when talking to God. The Reverend Charles Spurgeon once said, If the eloquence of our prayers mattered to God, then eloquence would be more valuable than grace — but it is not so. Excellency of speech is not what moves God to work on our behalf. God is moved by the honest and sincere cry of a br...2023-04-1728 minBuilding Great Lives PodcastBuilding Great Lives PodcastYou Don’t Have to Stay DownSend a text message to the show!

The word “fall” in Micah 7:8 also means “to feel overwhelmed when facing adversity”.

The Bible says God has given us exceeding great and precious promises. We prefer when God brings those promises to pass quickly. However, many of His promises take time. Waiting feels synonymous with doing nothing. However, biblical waiting is not passive.
