Episode 159: When You’ve Prayed and Prayed . . . and Nothing
32m | Sep 23, 2026Tell me I’m not alone. Have you ever prayed for something so long that you’ve started wondering, “Are You there, God? It’s me, Cynthia.”
Today we’re talking about Habakkuk and what prayer looks like when God feels silent, His answer makes no sense, or nothing seems to be changing.
Habakkuk gives us three things to hold onto:
Honesty. God can handle the real prayer—the frustrated, confused, “Where are You?” prayer.
Higher ground. Sometimes we need to get out of the weeds, quiet the noise, and let God’s Word—not our circumstances—shape what we believe.
Hope. Habakkuk doesn’t end with everything fixed. He ends with confidence that God is still sovereign and will give him the footing to walk whatever terrain is ahead.
If you’re waiting, wondering, or wrestling with God right now, today’s show is for you.
