Will God Hear My Prayer?

Psalms for Gaining Confidence: Message 3

September 13, 2024 • Dr. John Neufeld • Psalm 5

What assurance do we have that God hears our prayers? In Psalm 5, David asks God to hear his groaning and cries. The king was confident that God listens to the repentant, humble heart, which relies upon God's steadfast love. David was not disappointed.

Since confidence is defined as a sense of self-assurance, we may assume that the source of confidence can be found within us. We simply need to boost our own morale. That is not the teaching of Scripture. In this series from the Psalms, Dr. John points to God as the foundation and sustenance for our hope in this life and the life to come.

Praying When Our Enemies Triumph

September 20, 2024 • Dr. John Neufeld • Psalm 6

Being disciplined is never pleasant; yet it is a necessary part of the parent/child relationship. It is also a necessary part of being a child of God. In Psalm 6, David prays under the heavy hand of God. Dr. John reminds us that David prays as a child confident in the love and mercy of the Father.

Security in the Evening

September 6, 2024 • Dr. John Neufeld • Psalm 4

There are nights when sleep escapes you. Your mind races and your body finds no rest. The events of the day have ruined your night. Listen as Dr. John speaks of Psalm 4 and the secret to a peaceful night. The defence and nearness of God allow us to be at rest. Since confidence is defined as a sense of self-assurance, we may assume that the source of confidence can be found within us. We simply need to boost our own morale. That is not the teaching of Scripture. In this series from the Psalms, Dr. John points to God as the foundation and sustenance for our hope in this life and the life to come.

Confidence in the Morning

August 30, 2024 • Dr. John Neufeld • Psalm 3

We all have a morning routine. We rise, dress, enjoy coffee, brush our teeth and catch up on the news of the day. Dr. John suggests that we add one more discipline — especially if we are facing a challenging day. Psalm 3 is a morning prayer which reminds us that God alone can lift our head to face the day with confidence. Since confidence is defined as a sense of self-assurance, we may assume that the source of confidence can be found within us. We simply need to boost our own morale. That is not the teaching of Scripture. In this series from the Psalms, Dr. John points to God as the foundation and sustenance for our hope in this life and the life to come.
