Prayer for Eternity

March 3, 2024 • Pastor Michael Gabbert • 1 Corinthians 16:22, Revelation 22:20, Matthew 6:10

Ultimately, prayer is motivated by a yearning for eternity, a pull toward a time when God

will make all things right and righteous. As this longing for another place moves in us from

subconscious to awareness, prayer has greater power since it increasing aligns with God’s

eternal will and purpose.

Prayer For Fairness

February 25, 2024 • Pastor Michael Gabbert • Job 31, Job 38, Job 39, Job 40, Job 41

Prayer is often an exercise in talking ABOUT God or even talking AT God. Especially in times of stress or suffering, we often think that events are based on our assumptions about the way life works; and things would change if we could only get God to listen to our thoughts on the matter. Yet, when God truly enters the conversation, silence is our primary response.

Prayers for Revival

February 18, 2024 • Pastor Michael Gabbert • Nehemiah 2:1–5, Nehemiah 1

The cry for spiritual revival in any generation is more than merely a call for God to make society better. Rather, it is a plea for God to intervene dramatically in the decline of a nation, and to do so by raising up and re-invigorating His own people first. Praying for revival is dangerous; but not praying for revival is disastrous.

Prayer for National Mercy

February 4, 2024 • Pastor Michael Gabbert • Exodus 34:29–30, Exodus 32:9–14, Exodus 32:31–32, Exodus 33:12–23

We live in a generation driven to remove all vestiges of God and faith from the public square. The Bible is ignored. The Constitution is twisted beyond its meaning. One offended person can block any religious exercise or censor public prayer. Christians wring their hands and worry for the future. But is this our only recourse? Can we do nothing else? What if we were desperate enough to pray as Moses prayed?
