Journey with Jesus – You Can't Fill a Cup That's Still Full of Yesterday, Empty the Negative Before You Pray

Journey with Jesus – You Can't Fill a Cup That's Still Full of 

Yesterday — Empty the Negative Before You Pray

In this practically refreshing and spiritually clearing message, 

you'll be shown why so many people come to prayer and feel like 

nothing is connecting, nothing is getting through, and nothing is 

shifting — they have never emptied out what yesterday left behind. 

The frustration of a difficult conversation that never resolved. 

The offence from something that was said or done. The disappointment 

of a day that went completely wrong. The anxiety that built through 

the hours and settled into the chest by evening. The resentment, 

the comparison, the discouragement, and the general residue of 

everything that accumulated through the previous day — all of it 

is still sitting inside you when you bow your head to pray. And 

you cannot receive what God wants to pour into you through prayer 

when the vessel is still full of everything yesterday left behind. 

You cannot fill a cup that has never been emptied.

This episode encourages you to make the deliberate emptying of 

yesterday's negativity a consistent and intentional first step 

every time you come to prayer. When you sit down to pray and feel 

blocked, heavy, or disconnected from God, that's your signal that 

the clearing needs to happen before the connecting can. Name what 

yesterday left. Acknowledge the frustration, the hurt, the 

disappointment, the fear. Hand every piece of it to God — not as 

the main content of your prayer but as the necessary clearing before 

it. Empty the cup. Then let God fill it with everything today 

requires. The difference between a prayer that connects and one 

that doesn't is often simply this — whether you emptied out 

yesterday before you began.

No matter how full of yesterday's residue you are coming into 

prayer right now, take comfort in this truth: God's mercies are 

new every single morning — which means every morning is designed 

to begin with an emptying of the old and a receiving of the new. 

Let it.

🎧 Listen now and learn the one clearing practice that could 

transform the quality and depth of every prayer you ever pray 

from this moment forward — empty out the negative before you 

begin.

"Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his 

compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your 

faithfulness." — Lamentations 3:22-23 (NIV)
