Stubborn in Prayer - When God Doesn’t Answer Prayers Right Away

Reverend Ross Henzi

Keep praying - even when you don’t understand. Keep trusting - even when nothing changes. Keep worshiping - even when your heart is heavy. Keep opening God’s word. Keep coming to the Lord’s Table. Keep gathering with God’s people. Don’t ever give up. Don’t ever quit.

God invites persistence because persistent prayer keeps bringing us back to him. Prayer doesn’t change God’s love for us. What prayer does do is remind us of where our hope is found, even if the answer has not yet come.

Stubborn in Prayer: When God Invites Persistent Prayer

Pastor Nathan Moldenhauer

So brothers and sisters, pray. Pray again. Pray tomorrow. Pray when you’re discouraged. Pray when you’re waiting. Pray when you don’t understand. Your God isn’t an unjust judge. He is your Father. He has chosen you. He loves you. He hears you.

The world might call it stubbornness. Jesus calls it faith. Faith keeps coming to its Father. Faith keeps asking. Faith keeps seeking. Faith keeps knocking. Faith is stubborn in prayer—not because God is reluctant to hear, but because God has promised to. Amen.

Giants Must Fall Sermon Series: The Giant of Anxiety

Reverend Ross Henzi

Look back. How many times has God carried you before? How many prayers has he answered? How many difficult times has he brought you through? The God who was faithful then is faithful now.

Ultimately, the answer to anxiety is not found within us. David defeated Goliath because the Lord fought for him. And we overcome anxiety because Jesus has already overcome our greatest enemies. We worry about the future. Jesus holds the future. We worry about death. Jesus conquered death. We worry whether God loves us. The cross answers that forever.
