    EP#414: Before You Google It, Ask God - Praying Scripture

    Send us Fan Mail From Today’s Episode In today’s episode, we talk about coming to God before you figure it out. If your first move when you’re stuck is to Google it, us AI or text a friend, this one’s a gentle nudge to ask God first. In today’s episode, we pray through James 1:5 and ask for God’s wisdom before we lean on our own strategies or everyone else’s advice—trusting Him for insight on both the big decisions and the ones we haven’t even seen coming yet. It’s a simple, honest prayer for anyone who wants to seek God first and actually believe He’ll answer.  Our Good God talks with us and we're created for life with Him, so let's experience more of it! Verse James 1:5 "If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you." Question God, I come depending on your wisdom. I know I need it, and you know what I’m facing. What’s something you want to share with me today?
