7 Examples From the Bible of Those Who Received Proof of Answered Prayers BEFORE God Acted!
In this episode of The Pirate Preacher, two lubbers hanging around the alleyways of Tortula gossip about the sermon, Proof of Answered Prayers. Their chatter mirrors back-pew critiques—packed with salty opinions and jabs—as they poke fun at the Pirate Preacher’s metaphors and nautical spin on scripture. The pirate theme threads through their lively banter, giving the discussion a rugged charm. Despite the jests, the episode wraps up with encouragement, leaving listeners inspired by the proof of answered prayers and the hope found in faith.
In this episode explore how Abraham’s servant found a wife for Isaac, how Gideon tested with a fleece, and Joshua commanded the sun to stand still—how Elijah prayed for rain and received. Unpack how God provides proof of answered prayers before they were fully manifested.
Dive into stories like Moses at the burning bush, where God equipped a reluctant leader with signs, and Hezekiah’s miraculous sundial, which confirmed God’s promise of extended life. Finally, they explore Thomas, the disciple who demanded tangible proof of Jesus’ resurrection and found himself face-to-face with undeniable truth.
Join the journey as these Shadowland lubbers navigate faith, doubt, and the Pirate Preacher’s fiery exhortations. It’s a lively, thought-provoking discussion of how prayers can be answered—and how we can trust the Skipper long before proof is in hand.
