If God already knows what we need, why does Jesus tell us to keep asking?

In this message, Pastor Jason Barnett explores one of Jesus' most misunderstood teachings on prayer. Using the image of a midnight knock and an inconvenient request, Jesus reframes prayer--not as a way to wear God down, but as an invitation to trust God's heart.

Many of us have stopped praying certain prayers. Not because we stopped believing, but because waiting became painful and silence felt personal. You will hear how Jesus invites us back--not with better words or stronger effort, but with honest, shameless trust rooted in relationship.

If prayer has felt risky, exhausting, or confusing, this message is for you.

Persistent prayer is not about changing God's mind--it is about trusting His heart.
