Transcript: This week, we’re commemorating true heroes – the kind we need today. From the time I was young, Daniel -the Politician and Prophet – was my hero. Kidnapped, orphaned, sexually abused, and relocated to a foreign, idolatrous nation, Daniel stood the test of character by purposing in his heart to trust God -even as a boy. Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer with the American Pastors Network and another Stand in the Gap Minute. True heroes are great because they trust in God. For Daniel, God gave him great wisdom and understanding. Exalted to Vice-President of Babylon, he served powerful kings. His colleagues tried to destroy him – but found him blameless. Though his godly life made him a target and even in his old age ended him in a lion’s den- Daniel served God faithfully and trusted God implicitly. He was unwavering in his trust – a true hero.

Waiting on the Lord Series: Preparing While Waiting

September 18, 2024

Transcript: When you faced a big test at school when you were younger, your success depended on preparing for it. As the saying goes, failing to prepare is preparing to fail. How does this apply to our spiritual lives? Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer with another Stand in the Gap Minute. Scripture calls us in Matthew 24:42 to “keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.” Keeping watch, however, is an active command. We don’t sit around and do nothing. Instead, we are to be about our Father’s business. In a time when many are giving up in despair, believers are challenged to live for the Lord and to share His message of hope with all who will listen. Don’t fail to plan. Keep watch, looking forward to the time Christ will take us to be with Him forever. Discover more encouraging resources at American Pastors Network dot net.

Waiting on the Lord Series: Be Still and Know

September 17, 2024

Transcript: Our nation is filled with anxiety and stress. We face unprecedented times like endless pandemics, corrupt politics, and complicated personal lives. In times like these, how can we find peace in our relationship with God? Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer with another Stand in the Gap Minute. In Psalm 46:10, we are told to, “Be still, and know that I am God.” We often think of being still as being idle and inactive, yet this passage offers a different perspective. Instead of worry, we are challenged to reflect on God’s power and control of our lives. When we are weak, He is strong. When we face frightening waves, He controls the sea. Nothing is beyond His power. The Psalm ends with God being called our fortress. He protects us from harm, just as the hymn from the reformer Martin Luther wrote when he faced attack and wrote “A mighty fortress is our God.” Discover more at American Pastors Network dot net.

Waiting on the Lord Series: Waiting for the Coming of Christ

September 16, 2024

Transcript: We live in an instant culture that does not like to wait. Yet Scripture often calls us to wait for the Lord. How does this apply to our lives today? Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer with another Stand in the Gap Minute. Psalm 24:14 teaches us to, “be strong, and let your hearts wait for the Lord!” The context of the Psalm was a response to pain and to overwhelming enemies. When we face challenges in life that we cannot control, we don’t give up. We look up to the One who can save us. In the New Testament, the apostle Paul calls us to encourage one another with the words of Christ’s any-moment coming. Patience does not equal passivity. Waiting for the Lord includes active obedience, knowing we must do all we can before His return as we seek to hear, “Well done, my good and faithful servant.” Discover more at American Pastors Network dot net.
