October 15, 2022 - Inspired by J.C. Ryle's treatise on Prayer. Way back in season 6 of our podcast, we took an extended look at “A Call to Prayer” by J. C. Ryle; those episodes turned out to be some of our most popular. For the next few days, we want to revisit a sampling of those episodes. If you find them encouraging, as I do, this review might spur you back to our 2022 and 2023 episodes to hear everything Pastor Ryle has to say about our call to prayer. Thank you for listening. Drop July 20, 2026We truncated our introduction for the last half of our October episodes. Our shorter introduction ends at the 3:18 mark if you would like to skip to that mark. This way, you have less to wade through.But this I do say, that not praying is a clear proof that a man is not yet a true Christian. He cannot really feel his sins. He cannot love God. He cannot feel himself a debtor to Christ. He cannot long after holiness. He cannot desire heaven. He has yet to be born again. He has “yet to be made a new creature. He may boast confidently of election, grace, faith, hope, and knowledge, and deceive ignorant people. But you may rest assured it is all vain talk if he does not pray.”Subtly woven into this paragraph are the four main elements of prayer, Confession, Worship, Thanksgiving, and Intercession. These are undeniable marks of a heart saved by grace and one that is longing for knowledge of the Savior.Indeed it was David's fellowship with the God of his salvation that made him confess:Psalm 27:13I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the LORD In the land of the living. 14 Wait for the LORD; Be strong, and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the LORD.Even in the best of times, God's people need strength, courage, and patience. How. Much more in our day?“What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more.” Robert Murray M'CheyneAssistant Editor: Seven Jefferson Gossardwww.freerangepreacheronprayer.comfreerangeprayer@gmail.comFacebook - Free Range Preacher MinistriesInstagram: freerangeministriesAll our Scripture quotes are drawn from the NASB 1977 edition.For access to the voice-over services of Richard Durrington, please visit RichardDurrington.com or email him at Durringtonr@gmail.comOur podcast art designed by @sammmmmmmmm23 on InstagramSeason 008Episode 041

Genesis 18:22-33

Rev. Obeng highlights the Syrophoenician woman's desperate plea for her daughter to teach us about intercession. While order in prayer matters, raw faith matters more. You don't need complex theology or perfect protocols to intercede for your children. Sometimes, the most powerful, persistent prayer is simply, "Lord, help!"

The speech begins with claims about prescription-drug pricing, child investment accounts, border enforcement, crime, the military, energy production, and Iran. It then shifts to the speaker's central announcement: the declassification and release of intelligence concerning vulnerabilities in U.S. elections. Amanda largely allows the speech to play without interruption, stepping in only for brief reactions and a microphone problem. The episode is therefore structured around the prerecorded address followed by an extended live interpretation. Claims of Foreign Interference and Election-System Vulnerabilities The prerecorded speech alleges that China acquired sensitive American voter information and that intelligence officials suppressed reporting about Chinese election activity. It also describes purported concerns involving centralized voter databases, electronic voting systems, foreign cyber capabilities, Venezuela, voter-registration activity in Michigan, and noncitizens appearing on voter rolls. The speaker calls for investigations, possible criminal charges, state notifications, technical repairs before the midterm elections, voter identification, proof of citizenship, and passage of legislation called the SAVE America Act. These statements are preserved as claims made in the recording and are not presented in the transcript or summary as independently established facts. Several figures, quotations, and phrases remain subject to verification because of the automated transcription quality. A Live Reaction Focused on Exposure and Accountability After the address, Amanda Grace characterizes the announcement as a political and institutional turning point. She interprets the declassification as the exposure of a hidden network involving foreign actors, government officials, intelligence agencies, political figures, and media institutions. She repeatedly describes the moment as the dropping of a gauntlet and a line being drawn before the nation. Her commentary emphasizes Michigan, the coming midterm elections, possible congressional upheaval, and her belief that criminal investigations will follow. She urges listeners to view the period from July through September as unusually consequential and potentially dangerous. Prophetic Readings, Historical Parallels, and Symbolic Timing Amanda connects the speech to prophetic words she says she delivered in 2025 and 2026 concerning Michigan, political parties, hidden agreements, documents buried in bureaucracy, media networks, and a wider season of uncovering. She also reads a lengthy passage attributed to John F. Kennedy and compares its warnings about secrecy and national danger to the tone of the prerecorded address. The discussion incorporates America's 250th year, the anniversary of JFK Jr.'s death, Rosh Hashanah, Purim, biblical numbers, the 1979 Iranian Revolution, and other symbolic timing. She describes storms, exposed root systems, infections being drained, and cornered animals as metaphors for political and spiritual conflict. All of these interpretations remain clearly attributed to Amanda as her prophetic and spiritual analysis. Intercession for Leaders and Protection Against Harm A substantial portion of the program is devoted to warning that national leaders and members of the administration may face danger after the release of the documents. Amanda calls for prayer for President Trump, his family, the cabinet, and people affected by serious flooding in Kerr County, Texas. She leads an extended Christian prayer invoking Jesus Christ, biblical protection, spiritual discernment, angelic guardianship, wisdom, and the defeat of plots, ambushes, and destructive plans. The prayer also asks that national crises be prevented and that believers understand what Amanda describes as spiritual warfare. The language is preserved as religious prayer and belief expressed by the host. Watchfulness, Scripture, and a Faith-Centered Closing Following the prayer, Amanda encourages listeners to remain vigilant, discerning, and grounded in Christian scripture. She references Gideon, James 4:7, Ephesians 6, Psalm 91, Ephesians 1 and 3, and the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6 as resources for spiritual preparation. A brief sponsor message promotes precious-metals services and a Cyrus-themed coin, although the spoken phone number is incomplete in the transcript. The broadcast closes with a call to make following Jesus Christ a daily lifestyle rather than a Sunday-only practice. Amanda thanks the audience and team, says that additional short-form content and future live-broadcast information will be announced, and ends with the words, 'Keep the faith.'

The art of intercession is beyond our traditional concept of prayer. It calls us into a deep and profound comprehension of a sacrificial way of lifestyle that collaborates with the forces of heaven to bring about reformation and transformation to society. It flows from a selfless heart, fully and wholly devoted to God's kingdom purposes and prophetic mandate for man and creation. When we intercede, we step into a sacred calling, standing in the gap in relentless love and courage, aligning earthly realities with the divine will to shift the course of human affairs for individuals, communities, and entire nations.At its core, intercession is an act of love; it's an intentional, Spirit-led intervention on behalf of others. It's the moment when a human heart aligns with God's heart, pleading for His mercy, justice, and purposes to manifest in the earth. Whether it's for a family member, a city, or an entire nation, intercession carries the weight of heaven's redemptive plan. The Bible is filled with examples of intercessors who changed the course of history through their relentless, heartfelt prayers: Daniel, Nehemiah, Abraham, Moses, and countless others who stood before God on behalf of broken people and wayward nations.Consider Daniel's story in Babylon (Daniel 10). From the moment he began to pray, God dispatched an answer, but a spiritual adversary, the prince of Persia, hindered the response for 21 days. Daniel's persistence in prayer, coupled with angelic intervention, ultimately broke through the resistance. This account reveals a critical truth: intercession is not just a spiritual exercise; it's a confrontation with unseen forces that seek to oppose God's will. It requires tenacity, spiritual insight, and a deep understanding of the agencies at play in the spiritual realm.Intercession is heaven's ordained mechanism for transformation. If a nation is to experience revival, renewal, or restoration, it begins with a people who understand the ministry of intercession. These intercessors are the forerunners of change, the ones who labor in prayer to align earthly realities with heaven's purposes. But to be effective, intercession demands more than fervent prayers; it requires a clear understanding of the spiritual dynamics involved and a heart fully surrendered to God's redemptive plan.

The Biblical Office of the Evangelist: Restoring God's Harvesters for the Last Days | KIB 539 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description The Church desperately needs to rediscover the biblical office of the evangelist. In Episode 539 of the Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael Lake continues his series on the biblical Fivefold Ministry by examining what Scripture actually teaches about the office of the evangelist. Far removed from modern celebrity culture and emotional revivalism, the true evangelist is a herald of God's Kingdom who faithfully proclaims the Gospel, calls sinners to repentance, equips believers for soul-winning, and establishes disciples for Christ. Mary Lou Lake begins this episode by sharing an encouraging word on God's promise to quicken His people (Romans 8:11), praying for healing, restoration, renewed strength, and spiritual refreshing for the remnant. She also discusses the importance of strategic prayer for our nation, including praying over spiritual strongholds influencing Washington, D.C. Dr. Lake then explores the biblical foundations of the evangelist through the ministries of Noah, Jonah, Isaiah, John the Baptist, Philip, Timothy, and ultimately Jesus Himself. This study challenges many modern assumptions while calling believers back to authentic New Testament ministry built upon repentance, discipleship, holiness, and covenant faithfulness. This message is an important continuation of our Fivefold Ministry series and serves as a call for God to raise up true evangelists who will prepare the harvest before the return of Christ.

The Bible gives us significant counsel about how to treat sin and sinners -- especially sin by brethren or former brethren. Unfortunately, it is rarely heeded, and this leads to a slew of unintended consequences.  Let's see what the Bible tells us in regard to this phrase.Proverbs 17:9 KJVHe that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.1 Peter 4:7-8 KJVBut the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.James 5:19-20 KJVBrethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him; Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.Related Podcasts:— Unto Whom Much is Given— The Law of Faith— The Law and Grace— What of Works?— Missing the Mark— Faith and the Christian Experience— Obedience is the Consequence, not the Cause— Search Me, O God— Forgiveness is Our Solemn Duty— Beware Self-Righteousness— Godly Sorrow, True Repentance— Why Do We Seek Wisdom?— Having the Right PerspectiveRelated Podcasts at TrueWisdom:— Joseph and His Conflicts— Squandered Blessings— Grace, Grace, and More GraceText UsSupport the showSend questions or comments to: BibleQuestions@ASBzone.comThe Key Principles of Effective Bible Study is a resource which outlines core concepts shown in the Scriptures that will help you to better understand many Biblical themes and doctrines.  We have an extended, 24-part podcast series on these principles, and a condensed, 9-part series called God's Precious Word, that is based on the same resource.We also recommend that you check out the True Wisdom podcast which I co-host with Robert Baker -- a different format for Bible Study.Finally, check out these awesome Bible Maps!We pray that all of these resources will be very helpful to you in your Bible Studies.

Sermon Series: "Pray" on Sunday evening, 12 July, 2026. Bible readings: 1 Timothy 2:1-6, 1 Samuel 12:23, Luke 18:1, Mark 9:28-29, James 5:16.

Listen in as we continue our series on norms in the early church according to the book of Acts. The filling of the Holy Spirit is a prominent theme in the early church and the advance of the gospel. In this episode, we share insights from Acts into how to be filled with the Spirit.  Spirit-filling is mentioned at least 10 times in Acts. These instances fall into two categories:  - A general character trait about a person. Examples: The 7 chosen to serve (Acts 6:3-5); Stephen (Acts 6:8); Barnabas (Acts 11:23-24). - A special filling at a specific moment in time that resulted in special power – often boldness in gospel proclamation.  Examples: *Acts 2- Believers spoke in tongues, testifying to mighty acts of God; 3000 saved.*Acts 4:8-12- Peter, filled with the Spirit, preaches with boldness. *Acts 4:29-31- All believers praying for boldness and signs and wonders; place shaken and they were all filled with Spirit and continued to speak the word with boldness.  *Acts 7:55- Stephen, full of Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God. *Acts 13:9- Paul and Barnabas on Cyprus during the first missionary journey, proclaiming the word of God, and this magician/false prophet was opposing them and trying to keep the proconsul from believing. Paul made Elymas blind, resulting in the proconsul believing when he saw what occurred. *Acts 13:52- Disciples filled with joy and Holy Spirit. -Eph. 5:18 – “Do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit.” Books Referenced: The Ministry of Intercession by Andrew Murray.The Baptism and Gifts of the Spirit by D.

Every initiative that lasts begins with a foundation that exists before the work becomes visible. This is true in business, in career, in ministry, and in the establishing of any structure meant to serve a purpose beyond the person who starts it. A believer who wants to build something enduring must first ask what has already been built in the environment he wants to enter, because no structure rises from nothing, whether that structure is natural or spiritual. The spirit does not work by wishful desire. What a person wants to see manifests in the natural world requires a corresponding foundation in the spirit, and that foundation has to be built or discovered before the building itself can begin.Paul establishes this principle when he writes to the Corinthian church about foundation. He tells them that no one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 3:11). The principle he states about the person of Christ applies more broadly to the pattern of how God works. There is an order to building, and that order begins underground, in a place hidden from public view, long before anything above ground can be recognized.Foundation as the Precondition for BuildingA person who senses a call to build a ministry, launch a business, or shift the direction of a nation must resist the urge to construct without first locating the foundation that permits that construction. If no foundation exists in that environment, the work has not yet begun, even if visible activity has already started. The first labor required is not building upward but building downward, and this downward labor often goes unseen, unappreciated, and even misunderstood by the very people the initiative is meant to serve.This is where the place of prayer carries weight that exceeds emotional comfort or personal devotion. Prayer and intercession function as the excavation and pouring of a spiritual foundation. Before a ministry, a business, or a societal reform can stand, someone must have already labored in the spirit to establish the structure that will bear its weight. The kind of future a person wants to build, and the kind of transformation a person believes God has called him to bring to a nation, a sector, or an institution, has to be constructed first in the unseen realm through intercession, because the visible follows the invisible and not the reverse.

Dr. Michael Brown teaches on the power of intercession — prayer that presses in and stands in the gap for others. From the Hebrew word maphgia to the example of Jesus, Paul, and the Holy Spirit's groanings within us, he unpacks what it means to identify with those we're praying for, carry the weight of their need, and contend in authority for breakthrough.

Heaven is not about a place but a person, whose presence makes everything paradise; so, He must be our priority here if we want to be there. Think about it: If you carry the presence of the Person who makes Paradise what it is, would you say your life reflects Heaven?

Justice and mercy can feel like they pull in opposite directions, but Genesis 18 shows us a God who holds both together without contradiction. When God visits Abraham on His way to Sodom, nothing about that visit is accidental. He shares a meal, reaffirms His promise, and draws Abraham into a conversation about what He is about to do. Abraham never argues that Sodom is innocent. He knows better. Instead, he intercedes for any righteous people who might be there, and in doing so, he models what it looks like to bring our deepest concerns before God in honest conversation.Scripture is clear that every person falls short of God's standard, and that shortfall is not a minor infraction. Replacing God with yourself as the center of your life is, at its core, treason against the rightful King of everything. But the same passage in Romans that declares everyone guilty also declares that justification is available as a gift through Christ. Jesus is described as the propitiation, the mercy seat, the place where the sacrifice is made. He absorbed the penalty so that God could be both just and the justifier of those who trust in Him. That is not a loophole. That is the cross.The faith this calls for goes all the way to the center of a person and reorients everything. Abraham is the pattern. He believed God's promise when it made no earthly sense, and it was counted to him as righteousness. God described His relationship with Abraham using the Hebrew word yada, a word of deep, intimate knowing, the same word used for the closest human bond. Jesus echoes this in John 15, calling His followers friends rather than servants. God does not want mere compliance. He wants closeness. And the primary way that closeness is built is through prayer, through showing up in conversation with God day after day, bringing questions, fears, and confusion, and learning through that process who He actually is. Abraham stopped negotiating at ten not because he ran out of arguments, but because he had learned enough about God to trust Him with the rest.

Genesis 18v16-33 with Gavin Bennett When confronted with injustice, suffering, and evil, it's easy to wonder what difference our prayers can make. God's invitation is not to bargain with him but to partner with him through intercession, trusting that his grace reaches into the darkest places and that our prayers can help bring his kingdom to earth.   Bridgetown.church/teaching

We may try to re-define God as someone or something more pleasing to us, but it’s an act of rebellion that leads to destruction. Think about it: How can you determine if there is there a golden calf in your life and what will you do about it?

Send us Fan MailThis is a beautiful book about interceding between a runaway slave and his master. Paul has led them both to Christ and pleas with Master Philemon to do something different than most Roman slave masters - forgive his slave since he has become a Christian. Paul saved them both so he pleas for restitution between master and slave. Listen to see the similarity of Jesus interceding for our souls since we were slaves to sin and death. Support the show

The saints can feel like distant, two-dimensional figures—names on churches, statues, feast days, and stories from another world. Continuing the conversation about Saint Boniface, Joe Rockey and Father Boniface Hicks explore how someone can move beyond simply knowing about a saint and begin developing a real relationship with that saint through prayer, curiosity, and time.Father explains that the saints are alive in Christ and closer to us than we often realize. The process can begin simply: notice when a saint repeatedly captures your attention, speak directly to that saint in prayer, and begin learning about the person behind the image. A short biography may provide the introduction, while longer accounts, films, papal reflections, and continued prayer gradually reveal the saint's personality, struggles, limitations, courage, and humanity.As that relationship develops, a saint can move from “two-dimensional to three-dimensional”—becoming a spiritual friend whose example speaks into your own circumstances. Their lives show that holiness does not erase struggle. Saints endured failure, misunderstanding, temptation, conflict, unfinished work, and gradual conversion. Their friendship gives us examples to follow, encouragement for our own weaknesses, and intercession as we continue growing in our relationship with ourselves, others, and God.Key IdeasBegin simply: notice which saints keep appearing, address them in prayer, and ask for their help.Use biographies, trustworthy films, and Church teaching to discover the saint's humanity—not only the polished summary.Saints become relatable when we understand their fears, failures, conflicts, limitations, and gradual conversion.Learning about history through a saint's life helps connect unfamiliar circumstances with the human struggles we still face today.The goal is not collecting information; it is developing supernatural friendships that help us become saints ourselves.Links & ReferencesSaints for Sinners by Archbishop Alban Goodier:https://sophiainstitute.com/product/saints-for-sinners/The Chosen:https://thechosen.tv/Pope Benedict XVI's General Audiences:https://www.vatican.va/content/benedict-xvi/en/audiences.index.htmlCTA: If this helped, please leave a review or share this episode with a friend.Questions or thoughts?

But if God is this close to us, what is He doing? We know the Word is the source of God's revelation, but what is the daily impact of His presence?God does amazing things in the lives of His people. He works in us, on us, and around us in great ways. Let's explore a few of those mighty acts. He is involved in the lives of unbelievers and believers, in personal ways.

(Hebrews 7:25; 9:24) Intercession shapes both the one who prays and the one being prayed for. Intercessory prayer Is both a privilege and an assignment. Christ lived praying, died praying, ascended praying, and now continually appears before the Father on our behalf. Jesus' ongoing intercession invites and empowers us to join Him at the throne of grace. (10139260611) Join Scott Pauley's study through Scripture this year.
