Storming the Gates: A podcast about Prayer

Daily a spiritual war is waged, and war is hard. The battles may seem endless. Our strength gives way, and our hearts break. As God's soldiers, we must get beyond the noise and meet with our commander in the quiet and secluded places. This podcast is such a place. Here, we retreat from the war. Here, we will find reassurance through His Word that there is hope and promises for our future. We can gain battle strategies for our lives, and assignments to win the Kingdom for His name's sake! Let your heart be mended and your soul revived. Together we will pick up our sword, put on our armor, and head out to battle once again.

God loves to be gracious and forgiving, but He is also just. He would rather rise up to show us compassion, he DELIGHTS in showing mercy, but if we will not receive that mercy and refuse to turn… Justice is on its way.

A right perspective of God causes us to realize how truly amazing it is that He cares about each one of us, and cleanses us of all unrighteousness so we can approach His throne. And more than that: We get to call Him ABBA! Father.

But also: Tremble in fear if you have chosen to ignore the good path He has laid out for our salvation.

Chapter 10 is a perfect example of this contrast between mercy and justice.
