Why Do We Try to Convince God?

Pastor Vern Peltz / Dec 21, 2025
Pastor Vern Peltz shares insights on transitioning prayers from emotional hope to certain faith by listening to God, nurturing hope, and praying with assurance based on His promises. He emphasizes the importance of hearing from God, receiving His spoken word, and nurturing hope through emotional expectation. Faith is grounded in the logical assurance of ownership over what God has spoken to us. God doesn't require us to beg or plead in prayer; instead, we are called to pray with confidence, knowing and declaring what God has already promised. Pastor Vern encourages praying scriptural prayers by owning and speaking the promises of God with certainty and faith, believing that what He has said will surely come to pass.
