The Purpose & Power of Prayer (Part 2): When Heaven Feels Silent- The Power of Persistent Prayer

In today’s episode of Purpose of Heart, we step into Part Two of our series: The Purpose and Power of Prayer. If you’ve ever prayed… cried… waited… and wondered why God felt quiet, this conversation will meet you right in that tender place.

We explore what Scripture reveals about those seasons when heaven seems silent—and how God is still moving, still fighting for you, still working in the unseen even when you can’t hear Him. Through Daniel 10, Luke 18, and Isaiah 40:31, we uncover the truth that silence is not absence, and delay is not denial.

This episode will strengthen your faith, stretch your endurance, and remind your heart that God sees you, knows you, and responds to persistent prayers. When you feel like giving up, heaven is still at work. When answers delay, spiritual muscles are being built. When the waiting feels long, strength is being renewed.

Lean in, family—there is purpose in the pause.

 In This Episode, You’ll Discover:

• Why God sometimes feels silent—and why His silence never means distance.
• The unseen spiritual battles that may be delaying the answers you’ve been praying for.
• The power of persistent prayer from Luke 18 and how God honors endurance.
• What it really means to “wait on the Lord” and why waiting is preparation, not punishment.
• How God builds spiritual muscle, intimacy, and trust through seasons of delay.
• A heartfelt reflection to help you reframe that long-standing prayer request.

This episode is for the weary intercessor, the hopeful believer, and the one who has been crying out for a long time. Take heart—your prayers are heard from the first day.
