Hey friends, anna Murby here, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has been supporting the podcast. We have just entered season five and I am definitely overwhelmed and humbled by all the feedback I've gotten, all the prayer requests that people give me and just opening up to me about how they've enjoyed the content from season four, how it's impacted them, made them think and even the ideas that I've been given on future topics. I appreciate that so much because I'm always looking for future topics. So if you have any, please do contact me. Go to the website honestchristianconversationscom and go to the contact page and just send me an email and share with me your ideas of things you might want me to discuss in future episodes. I would love to know what you want to talk about.

This podcast is for all of you who listen. This is not my podcast. This is God's podcast and I will do it as long as he allows me to, but I'm here for you. I want you to know that I am always praying for you. I may not be praying for you specifically one if you haven't given me a prayer request specifically or if I just don't know your name, but I am still praying for you because you've listened to the podcast, you've tuned in at some point. You're on my prayer list when I pray for those who have listened to this podcast, so I appreciate you all very much. I'm thankful that I get to do this and I want to continue to be a blessing to your life. I don't know if you've listened to this week's episode with Amy Lykosh, but her intercessory prayer ministry for business really highlighted to me the importance of intercessory prayer for others, and that is why I have emphasized so much that I am going to pray for my listeners. Be more intentional about it. I'll be honest. I wasn't. I'm still working on it.

Speaker 1: 2:08

It's a struggle when you have a lot of things going in your life. You've got a job, you've got kids, you've got a spouse. There are so many factors going on in our lives. It is really hard to pin down time to focus and pray and allow God to speak to us as well through prayer. It is not an easy thing to do, but I am making sure that you are important in my life by putting you in prayer as well. I may not know all that you are going through, but I know we are going through things. We are all struggling at one point or another. Or we're having a good season, maybe it's a good season for you, but you still need prayer for something. You need prayer for the things that are to come.

Speaker 1: 2:54

So intercessory prayer is so important. It is important that we pray for each other, that we focus on each other and do what is necessary to be there for each other, and even if you don't know what to pray, the Holy Spirit's leading will pray for you. So if you have to just be silent, just be silent. God knows what you want to say, even if you can't voice it. So before we go, two things. One, I just want you to know if you have any prayer requests. I am here for you. Please go to honestchristianconversationscom and click on the contact page and send me your prayer request. You can also do it through those show notes links. You can send them through a voicemail or send me a message. They're anonymous, both of those. You can send them there as well, and I will be praying for you that way too. There's no excuse. If you need prayer, specific prayer, if you can't find anyone else to do it, I am here to pray for you. This ministry that I have is for you. It is not for me and my benefit. I am here as long as God allows.

Speaker 1: 4:06

Now the next thing is going to be a question that I want you to mull over. If you want to talk to me about it, you're more than welcome to honestchristianconversationscom and go to the contact page and leave me an email about it. Here is your question who are you doing intercessory prayer for in your life, and are you being consistent with it? When was the last time that you prayed sincerely for someone else that maybe you don't agree with, maybe you don't like too much, maybe you have a strained relationship with? These are hard questions to answer, even for me.

Speaker 1: 4:47

I'm thinking of some people in my life right now, but they are necessary. We need to be praying for others. We definitely need to be praying for those who we don't align with as well. So, yeah, there's your questions who are you doing intercessory prayer for, and when was the last time that you prayed for someone that you don't agree with? Chew on that for however long God needs you to, and then act on what he's telling you to do. Again, I'm here for you if you need any sort of prayer or if you just have any comments that you want to say about this episode that just came out past episodes. Any of it. I am here for it. Use the two links in the show notes, go to Honest Christian Conversations and click on the contact page if that's what you would like to do instead. I will talk to you again soon.
