The Prayer that God Answers, Part 7
In this urgent and authoritative message from Is the End Near?, Dr. Michael Youssef begins by addressing a question believers have asked for generations: Are we living in the last days? Drawing from Matthew 24, Dr. Youssef reveals six unmistakable signs Jesus gave—comparing them to labor pains that intensify before the return of Christ. From the spread of deception and false teaching—even within churches—to escalating global conflict, natural disasters, and persecution of faithful believers, each sign is a call for spiritual vigilance and Gospel proclamation. The message culminates with Christ’s promise that the Gospel will reach all nations before the end comes—urging every believer to stand firm, repent, and proclaim God’s unchanging Truth in these perilous times.

In this seventh message of The Prayer That God Answers, Dr. Michael Youssef confronts the sin of worry and anxiety through the petition, “Give us this day our daily bread.” He boldly declares that worry is not a personality trait—it is idolatry, rooted in distrust of God’s promises. Jesus taught us to pray for daily provision only after we’ve sought the glory of God, His Kingdom, and His will. Dr. Youssef calls believers to reorder their priorities, place full trust in Christ, and refuse to live like practical atheists. God is not impressed with our fear; He desires our faith. Only when we repent of self-dependence and walk in daily surrender can we experience the peace and provision He promises.
