Be the Answer You’re Asking For EP. 259
from Excelling in Christ Hosted by Clarence Fell
In this episode, I explore the power of prayer not as a passive wish list to heaven, but as an invitation to action and transformation. We dive into Matthew 9 and uncover a "clever turn" Jesus uses, asking the disciples to pray for workers... and then sending them out. That pattern repeats throughout our lives: we pray, and then we’re called to be the answer. Whether it’s in our families, marriages, personal healing, or spiritual growth, God invites us into active partnership. I talk about how prayer isn’t meant to keep us comfortable on a park bench while we wait for change. It’s meant to stir us to roll up our sleeves, to walk through the valleys, to love sacrificially, and to press forward when the path isn’t clear. From parenting to marriage, from broken hearts to church growth, I share how the Word of God offers practical, powerful direction when we're willing to participate in the process. So, if you’ve ever prayed and wondered why the answer didn’t come wrapped in gold, this one's for you. Sometimes, God isn’t slow, He’s just waiting for us to get off the bench and move.
