Paano Ba Talaga Magdasal? Filipino Traditions vs Biblical Truth
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
“What if the way we’ve been praying and following tradition… isn’t actually in line with the Word of God?”
Did you grow up believing that prayer had to look a certain way—
holding a statue, offering something, or repeating the same words over and over?
But what if… that’s not actually what the Bible teaches?
In this episode of the Rise Tayo Podcast, Coach Blanche lovingly unpacks the difference between Filipino traditions and biblical truth about prayer.
"Hindi ito paninira ng kultura—
ito ay paanyaya na makilala ang Diyos ng mas malalim, ayon sa Kanyang Salita."
📖 In this episode, you’ll learn:
- What the Bible says about idols and worship (Exodus 20:4–6, Psalm 115)
- Why sincerity doesn’t always mean truth
- Why Jesus Christ is the only mediator between God and man (1 Timothy 2:5)
- Why Jesus said: “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6)
- The power of His once-and-for-all sacrifice (Hebrews 9:12–14)
- What true, biblical prayer really looks like
If you’ve ever asked,
“Paano ba talaga magdasal sa Panginoon?” (How do we truly pray to God?)
this episode will guide you back to the simplicity and power of a real relationship with Him.
