Do Not Let Your Heart Be Troubled

In this powerful Midnight Hour broadcast, Reverend Ben Cooper and Pastor Donny Stockburn gather for an uplifting time of prayer, Scripture, testimony and Holy Communion. Beginning with the comforting words of Jesus in John 14:1, “Do not let your hearts be troubled,” this episode encourages listeners to place their complete trust in God and hold firmly to His promises.

Recorded as Maundy Thursday begins, the message reflects on the Passover, the Last Supper, the sacrifice of Jesus at the cross of Calvary and the hope found in His resurrection. Through passages including John 14, Luke 15, Proverbs 3, Psalm 91, Isaiah 40 and John 17, listeners are reminded that God sees every person, hears every prayer and cares about every detail of their lives.

Ben and Donny pray for people experiencing fear, anxiety, loneliness, illness, sleeplessness, family difficulties and uncertainty. Donny also shares a personal testimony about God answering a bold and heartfelt prayer while members of his family were in hospital.

The message encourages every listener to pray boldly and remember the parables of the lost sheep and the lost coin. These scriptures reveal that nobody is forgotten, overlooked or unimportant to God. Every person matters, and every sincere prayer is heard.

As the broadcast moves towards Holy Communion, Ben and Donny reflect on the body and blood of Jesus, the new covenant, forgiveness, redemption and the finished work of the cross. The episode celebrates the truth that Jesus Christ is alive and that the grave could not hold Him.

This episode is a powerful reminder that fear does not have the final word. The peace of Jesus Christ is available to everyone who calls upon His name. Be encouraged to trust the Lord, stand firmly on Scripture, wait upon God for renewed strength, pray for others and never give up.
