Wartime Prayer - God is Not Your Butler


Listen Later

(Acts 4:23-31) In this sermon, Nathan explores the power and purpose of prayer, emphasizing that it should be a collective and bold call to God, rather than merely requests for personal convenience. He contrasts two types of prayers: those that treat God like a butler and those that are reflective of a wartime mentality, urging the congregation to pray for courage and strength in the face of opposition, just as Peter and John did after their release from imprisonment. Additionally, he highlights the importance of praying Scripture and gathering together in prayer, showcasing how this strengthens the church and affirms belief in God's sovereignty. The sermon culminates with a call to participate in a day of prayer and fasting, encouraging believers to seek God's intervention for their communities and affirming the transformative power of praying with purpose.
