721 Live with Sam Hunter

15 Years of “721 Live” (Episode 230104)

Today we look back over the 15 years of our radio show, “721 Live.” Here are the scripture passages that have compelled me, motivated me, and guided me as we leave 2022 behind and begin 2023.

Prayer: Asking – What If You Got What You Asked For? (Episode 221214)

Prayer Series (Asking) Can I pray for my own good? Can I wear God down to get what I want? What if God granted my prayer requests? What would be the Ultimate Prayer Request?

Can I wear God down to get what I want? (Episode 221207)

Today we will look at two of Jesus’ parables that have been poorly interpreted and therefore poorly preached on. In the parable of The Friend Knocking at Midnight (Luke 11) and the parable of The Widow and the Unjust Judge (Luke 18), many have concluded that Jesus is telling us to keep knocking and keep going to God until we “wear him down,” in order to get that for which we are praying?  But could this possibly be Jesus’ message?

Prayer: Asking (Episode 20221130)

Can I pray for my own good? Can I wear God down to get what I want? What if God granted my prayer requests? What would be the Ultimate Prayer. Request? Today’s video: “Can we ask God for good things that benefit us in our prayers?”

Prayer: Thank You (Episode 221116)

Do you find yourself criticizing and complaining from time to time? Perhaps more often than not? When we do this, it is a sure sign that we have lost our focus on just how blessed we are – no matter what is happening in our life. Today’s lesson is an exercise in remembering. Remembering all the many blessings we already have, being aware of just how bad things could be, and remembering the prayer requests we made to God, that had he granted our wishes, we can now see would have been a negative thing in our life. This is a great exercise for all of us all the time, especially with Thanksgiving approaching.
