Episode Transcript
I want to offer you something a little bit different as it relates to helping you reach your hair growth goals.
Oftentimes people approach methods for achieving hair growth by giving you practical steps like, you know, following a natural hair routine that’s consistent. Make sure you do X amount of days that you moisturize and deep condition.
While all of these tips are great, I want to offer you a different perspective. So, as it relates to hair growth, I want to include God in the process because He is your creator. As your creator, He knows exactly how you are formed and fashioned, so who better to help you reach your hair growth goals?
Overview
So let’s focus on some prayer points. And the three prayer points I want us to focus on are confidence, patience and health. So having confidence in the hair that you have today right now, when you are confident in what you already possess, you’ll take care of it better.
When you’re patient, you will see your goals as a place, you know, as a point to achieve them, but you’re not rushing the process. You’re not trying to do all kinds of wild and crazy things to get there because you’re being patient and health.
The health of your hair, the health of your hair is so important, and that is where those specific techniques come in handy for you to reach your growth goals.
So this is not going to be a long episode. What I want to do is pray for you in these three different areas. So let’s start with confidence.
Prayer for confidence
Confidence in what you have and what God created. Father in the name of Jesus, I thank you right now, Lord God for my sister on the other end of this podcast episode as she’s listening, Lord.
I pray, Lord, that you would develop in her – build within her the confidence, Lord God, that she needs to stay on her hair journey, to stay focused on what she needs to do to reach her goals. But Lord God, knowing that this is a journey, I pray, Lord God, that you would help her to see herself as you see her, as a unique creation, fashioned and formed in your very image in the name of Jesus I pray.
Patience
It is so easy for us to get antsy and anxious because you know hair grows at a pretty slow rate. It’s not like, you know, we can be five inches in a month. It takes a really long time to see significant growth. So let’s pray for patience.
Prayer for patience
Father, I thank you right now, for my sister having patience as it relates to seeing her hair grow longer. Lord, help her not to reach for different things and try all these outlandish things to try and reach longer lengths. Help her to trust the process and to trust in you, Lord. Help her to be patient, Father God, as she does her hair care routines.
Help her Father God to be patient as she sees growth. There may be some setbacks, but help her to know Lord God that it’s all a part of the process in Jesus name.
Health of Your Hair
The health of your hair. Now, before you can even reach a longer length, you have to have healthy strands, and that does require you to be consistent with your hair care routines. It does require you to give your hair the nourishment and the attention that it needs. You can’t neglect moisture, you can’t neglect protein, and you can’t overly handle your hair. I’m sure you’ve heard all of these things before.
Prayer for the health of your hair
So let’s pray for the health of your hair. Father, finally, Lord God, I lift up my sister before you, and I pray father God that you would help her to implement all of the different techniques to find the right products that she needs to grow healthy hair.
Lord, I pray, Father God, that just as you want the rest of our bodies to be healthy, Lord God, you also want our hair to be healthy because it is an extension of who we are. Our hair is a part of our bodies. It’s part of who we are because you created it.
You created our hair just like you created our heart, just like you created our eyes, our noses and our mouths. Lord, to some, this may seem like a very mundane prayer, but Lord God, I trust and I believe, oh God, and all with all my heart, Lord, that you are concerned about the things that concern us.
So I pray, Father God, for my sister right now, that as she if she’s new on her natural hair journey, Lord God that she would find the products, Lord God, that she could make her go tos, that she would discover the techniques, father, that she needs to follow to grow healthy hair. I also pray oh God for the seasoned natural, the person who, on the other end, lord God, who may have been living with her natural hair for many years, and she kind of knows what works, but she may have been distracted by all the different new things that keep popping up and not necessarily new, but the things that become what we like to call bandwagons.
Lord help my sisters stay off of the bandwagons as it relates to growing healthy natural hair. And I just thank you right now, Father, that you are going to do a mighty work in every one who hears this podcast episode. I do not take it lightly and I thank you right now in Jesus name. Amen.
So that’s it. Confidence, patience, and health. Focus on these areas to grow longer, natural hair, and these prayer points that I just covered, you can also pray them in your own private time. Thank you so much for listening and I will catch you in the next episode.
