Have you ever wondered about the power of prayer in your daily life? In this episode of 'Hope, Healing & Freedom,' host Lee Whitman dives into the profound connection between prayer and intimacy with God. Starting with a reflection on the Million Women March, Lee shares his personal experiences attending large prayer gatherings and the impact they have on collective faith.
He brings to light how these events, while seemingly intangible in their immediate effects, contribute to a larger spiritual battle and foster a deep sense of unity among believers. The heart of the episode focuses on the Lord's Prayer, as taught by Jesus in Matthew 6:9-13.

From addressing God as 'Our Father' to asking for daily provisions and forgiveness, this prayer is shown to be a pathway to a more intimate and personal connection with the divine. Lee candidly admits that he isn't an expert on prayer but shares valuable lessons he's learned from his long walk with Jesus. He emphasises the importance of aligning our priorities with God's, forgiving others as we have been forgiven, and recognising our daily needs as provided by God.
