Free Range Preacher on Prayer

This is an episode from the past. (Different title) We have cleaned up the audio; thank You, Jesus! We walk and pray by faith. So important is faith to our Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer, who repeats Himself, that the righteous walk by faith. Believing Him causes great rejoicing.. We rejoice and draw close to our Savior, the great I AM, as he strengthens our faith through the struggles of Jacob....

This episode is a repeat of our episode on forgiveness. This episode was well received, and as you will hear, praying that 2023 will be a year of Jubilee and Forgiveness and revisiting just how serious God is about His children forgiving as we have been forgiven seems like a good idea. Thank You, Jesus! The host is weak, faltering, and wholly inadequate for the task, but the word of God is none of...

In examining the question, "What is Prayer?" We accidentally learn why we pray. Even though no Biblical person asks why we pray? Their lives reveal our anguished need for prayer. We are sinners. Until glory, we struggle with sin. Prayer is the act of faith that assures our soul. We are complex lonely beings, and prayer brings us into the arms of our heavenly Father, who knows us, holds u...

When your host struggles in seasons of conviction of my sins, there is a pattern, and it is not is not joyful. There are two millstone attitudes that grind, this principal to discouragement. I tell myself, "I should be better than this," and "I am failing in the worthy walk." Neither of these self-accusations brings me closer to obedience or joy; just the opposite is true. Neit...

Today, we jump right into our devotion, "The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple." Psalm 19:7b You will well say, "Fred, a bold claim from a simple mind." You know, patient family, that I claim no part of high intellect, in fact, "O Lord, my heart is not proud, nor my eyes haughty; Nor do I involve myself in great matters, Or in things too difficult for m...

Costa Rica and the Netherlands are highlighted today in our random globe trot. Once again, we are humbled, thankful, and amazed at what the Lord has done. Thank you, Costa Rica and the Netherlands, for being part of the Free Range Preacher on Prayer family. We had the desire today to put some skin on our tagline, we haven't reviewed what we mean by a growing, Biblical, dynamic, sincere, soul-s...

We highlight today the countries of Qatar and Madagascar. Thank you both for being in the family of Free Range Prayer Servants! In the eyes of our podcast principal, Qatar is famous for the F1 Race held at the Lusail International Circuit. Madagascar is the home of the Tenrec, a small mammal that is reminiscent of a hedgehog, which is reminiscent for me of Cassandra J, our daughter, who, at birth,...

Highlighting two countries I can find on a map, (I think) Japan and Brazil! Thank you all for listening, it is our sincere prayer that the episodes you hear are continually an encouragement to your communion with our Savior. Thank You, Jesus! I was reminded in reading a little of the theology of Martin Luther on prayer from the book, "Taking hold of God: Reformed and Puritan Perspectives on P...

We highlight Australia and Spain as long-term listeners today, and we thank you for being a part of our prayer family. Our devotional today is again from Psalm 19. The nature of God's word as fitting to His will is clear from Psalm 19:7-11. The Psalm begins with David's assertion, moved by the Holy Spirit: The law of the LORD is perfect, restoring the soul; How can it be said, "The La...

Richard Durrington always adds an air of professionalism; thank you, Richard, for the new intros. Greetings to three countries who listen to the podcast, which I am uncomfortable mentioning because of the closed nature of those areas. But we are glad you are listening, and we pray for protection, faith, comfort, and zeal for the gospel's truth. This episode introduces us to the intricate worki...

In today's episode, we highlight Russia and Rwanda. Both countries have been listening for a while, and we just want to let you know we appreciate your listening. We are grateful to you and wonder at the goodness of God in our midst. The Puritans often referred to the Bible as a reasonable life, and we are called to a well-thought-out life of God's love and will. Because I struggled with o...

Knowing what a true, profound blessing they are. "But Mary treasured up all these things, ponderi...

Uganda and Ukraine are celebrated in Today's episode; I am amazed that every tribe and tongue is being reached for the Kingdom of Christ. Even more exciting is that Uganda and Ukraine joined the podcast early, and despite the troubles in both nations, they have held their respective places since. Glory to God. Welcome to the Free Range Preacher on Prayer on Prayer podcast. Today, we talk about...

We celebrate Madagascar, welcome The Dominican Republic, and then look at part 2 of our Discipline to Delight series on growing our prayer lives. We use: 1 John 2:14 John 14:23-24 2 Timothy 3:16 To come to the conclusion, if we don’t take the word of God seriously, we will struggle with God’s command/exhortation to: “Let us therefore draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, that we may re...

After we acknowledge our Donation link and thank Japan, Sierra Leone, and Hungary for the podcast, we begin a more thorough encouragement of the discipline of prayer, growing us into communion with the God who created, loves, and redeemed us, and that our most blessed time of the day. Our "So What:" In part one of "Discipline to Delight," we learn that our desire for full, cons...

About 2.5 years ago or so, French asked his mom for a Bible, not a kids' Bible, and she, of course, said yes. As he walked away, he told her, emphatically, "And I'm gonna read it!" The amazing part is that he was just starting to learn to read at the time, and he taught himself to read with that Bible! His only motivation for his work was his desire to read the Bible. Thank You,...

We are talking to my grand-babies again, well, not all of them at the same time, about using the word of God to help form our prayers. The practical portion of: "The Foundations of Biblical Prayer" does just that. I chose a psalm for Lincoln to read and then applied the questions in the journal to the psalm to learn about God and how the word of God very often reflects what we are going...

My grand-babies have been visiting the last couple of weeks, so I thought it would be a great time to have a little lesson on "The Foundation Blocks of Biblical Prayer" for children at this moment in their lives. I liked the idea of illustrating how one might use a prayer journal, following the format outlined in the "Foundations of Biblical Prayer," to learn and/or teach praye...

This episode emphasizes the importance of prayer during the pandemic, urging listeners to plan and commit to daily prayer, seek good examples for prayer, and learn from biblical figures like David. It also introduces avenues for joining a prayer community through social media platforms. (Blast from the past,) In D.A. Carson’s book, Praying with Paul, Doctor Carson encourages us to: Plan to pray. R...
