Midweek Reflection is a podcast by Trinity Baptist Church in Newton, North Carolina, where the same Word of God that sends us into our week meet us in our week to sustain us along the way.
This is a series based on the book Praying the Bible published by Crossway Press and authored by Donald S. Whitney. Today's session focuses on the difference between interpreting Scripture and praying Scripture, how to pray the imprecatory psalms (if at all), and the way a set apart prayer time shapes and informs the prayers we offer "on the go."
The exercise suggested at the end of the episode is:
Choose from Psalms 14; 44; 74; 104; 134
Read through the psalm. Pray about "the same old things" (family, future, finances, church, work, Christian concerns, etc.) either line by line or by focusing on a particular verse or phrase.
Document the experience. What did you pray about? what difference did you notice between praying like this and previous prayer times?

A Different Kind of Omnipotence | Isaiah 40:10-11
In this reflection, based on Isaiah 40:10-11, Andrew addresses the notion that for God to be all good He cannot be all-powerful ("omnipotent"), pointing to the Incarnation of Christ as God's climactic display of power and benevolence.

The exercise suggested at the end of the episode is:
Choose from Psalms 7; 37; 67; 87; 127
Read through the entire psalm. Then pray about "the same old things" (family, future, finances, work, Christian concerns, current crises, etc.) either line-by-line through the whole psalm or (for beginners) one or two lines from the psalm.
Document the experience. What differences did you notice between praying this way and previous prayer times? Were you more engaged? Did it seem more conversational?
