Pray Like You Mean It: Pray With Purpose - Robbie Townsend

Starting with a hilarious confession about avoiding his wife's marathon, Reverend Robbie draws a brilliant parallel: many of us would rather donate money than commit to the costly work of prayer. But God isn't just looking for our resources, He's looking for people who will stand in the gap with prayer. Through Ezekiel 22:30, we discover God searching for someone to build up the wall and stand in the gap for Israel. The problem wasn't just external enemies; it was spiritual corruption at every level of society. No one was qualified to bridge the gap between an unrighteous people and a holy God, until Jesus. The message unpacks how Jesus became the ultimate bridge, doing what we could never fill ourselves. But here's the challenge: God still invites us into intercessory prayer, not to do Jesus's work, but to stand in the spiritual vulnerabilities and weaknesses of others. Whether it's a prodigal child, a struggling marriage, or the world's most vulnerable, someone needs you defending their spiritual walk. This isn't sideline Christianity. It's stepping onto the battlefield, putting on spiritual armour, and refusing to quit praying. **Bible Verses Referenced:** Ezekiel 22:25-30, 1 Peter 3:18, 1 Timothy 2:1, Romans 15:30 CONNECT WITH RIVERLIFE CHURCH HERE ATInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/riverlifebaptistchurchFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/RiverlifeBaptistChurchWebsite: https://riverlifechurch.org.au
