Prayer can be powerful – and God wants us to pray, but, He demands that it be done His way or He won’t answer. Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer, President of the American Pastors Network where we place great value on prayer because God does. For the last several programs I’ve been talking about God’s Prayer Requirements? Did you know that another reason God won’t hear us is if we pray for selfish reasons? James 4:3 says, “You ask and receive not, because you ask that you may consume it upon your lusts.” While God wants to answer our requests, James clearly warns us that when we ask God for things because we want an elevated status in the eyes of the world more than in God’s eyes, or so we can have favor with our friends more than favor with God, or for any reason other than that God will be honored, God will not answer our prayers. Our motivation for prayer makes an enormous difference. Are you praying selfishly or for God’s glory?

Fearing God Series: Seek Knowledge
April 24, 2024
Transcript: Since fearing God means hating evil, pride, arrogancy, the way of evil and perverted speech, do you fear God? Prov. 1:7 says that the fear of God is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer with the American pastors network and another Stand in the gap Minute. According to Proverbs 1:29, those who choose not to fear God are marked by their hate of truth and knowledge. They are despisers of what is good, therefore God says they will eat of their own fruit, and be filled with the consequences of their own sinful choices. But God makes it clear that he has offered a way of hope and freedom and it starts with fearing Him. Proverbs says that if we cry after knowledge, and seek understanding in the fear of God we will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God.

April 23, 2024
Transcript: Defying moral truth, glorifying sexual perversions, gleefully murdering our babies, redefining marriage and defending open borders, is gross wickedness and a defiance of God’s plan for society. It assures God’s judgment on America. So how can we turn God’s wrath to God’s blessing in our land? By fearing God. Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer with the American Pastors Network and another Stand in the Gap Minute. So what is fearing God? In Prov. 8:13, the Bible says that fearing God means we will hate 5 things. Evil, pride, arrogancy, the way of evil, and perverted speech. The fear of God starts with knowing God, learning what He loves and what He hates, then choosing to love what he loves and hate what He hates. Fearing God is a choice. Prov. 1:7 says that this fear of God is the beginning of knowledge. Join with us at Stand in the Gap radio and TV and choose to fear God and hate what He hates. Our nation’s future depends on it.

Fearing God Series: No Fear of God
April 22, 2024
Transcript: Have we lost all fear and respect for God in our nation? When we look around and see the glorification of sexual perversions, the relentless efforts to redefine marriage and the incessant pursuit of legal permission to kill our babies in and out of the womb, are you aghast? Are you disturbed? I hope so. Hello, I’m Sam Rohrer with the American Pastors Network and another timely Stand in the Gap Minute. The Apostle Paul said it straight out in Rom. 3:18. The unredeemed and the evil in heart have no fear of God before their eyes. While some have always hated the Truth, rejected God and Jesus Christ, and embraced lies and deceit, it’s far more serious when an entire culture becomes arrogant and zealous in their pursuit of sin. Until we re-embrace a fear of God, our nation stands in jeopardy of God’s wrath against sin. Join with us at Stand in the gap radio and tv and fear God in our lives and actions.
