My Daddy Can't Stand to see Me Cry: Jeremiah 9 Artwork

Storming the Gates: A podcast about Prayer

Daily a spiritual war is waged, and war is hard. The battles may seem endless. Our strength gives way, and our hearts break. As God's soldiers, we must get beyond the noise and meet with our commander in the quiet and secluded places. This podcast is such a place. Here, we retreat from the war. Here, we will find reassurance through His Word that there is hope and promises for our future. We can gain battle strategies for our lives, and assignments to win the Kingdom for His name's sake! Let your heart be mended and your soul revived. Together we will pick up our sword, put on our armor, and head out to battle once again.

Chapter nine of Jeremiah may continues to reflect the consequences of sin, but like a flower popping up in a city sidewalk crack, it also emphasizes the hope that can be found. And more: It tells us how to find that hope in the darkness.

Chapter nine epitomizes why Jeremiah earned the moniker of the “Weeping prophet.” God expressed His own deep sorrow over the state of His people through Jeremiah's tears.

And more: God invites us to come close and experience His heart, taste His tears, and allow our hearts to break with the things that break His heart.

Are we willing to be God’s friend and sit a while with Him and listen to His heart? Even if it makes us see the world differently?

Even though we must weep with Him?
