Prayer: The Gateway to the Garden // Charles Metcalf



In this message, Pastor Charles explores the deeper meaning of prayer and explains that Prayer can be a portal to paradise. Prayer isn’t just about communication with God but rather it is about communion with Him. We learn that fasting can help us grasp the importance of denying our flesh to be in close proximity with God. If you have struggled with understanding the purpose and power of prayer and fasting, this message is for you!

  1. Thank you Lord, such a powerful word listening for the second time. What will you do when the King is in the room?

  2. This word was right on time. I truly needed to hear this I use to believe God was so high above and he was hearing me but now I know he's in the room. Thank you you enlightened my eyes

  3. Please Father come in the room and restore my marriage don't allow Lord Jesus for my marriage to end restore my children my son Elijah restore his mind and health and my oldest daughter restore her life turn her life completely around and save her for your Kingdom and your Glory Save Lord Jesus all of my children and grandchildren in Jesus Name Amen

  4. I can't fast from physical food because of medications but I am doing a social media fast because I know that's where most of my free time goes. I hope with the free time I have I become closer with God because I will no longer have the excuse of "I don't have time". Like babes I see your screen time reports, so that's where I'll start. Thank you for this message Pastor Charles. <3

  5. Awesome word! Thank you Pastor Charles for this perspective on prayer and fasting. It was very insightful and provided so much depth and clarity.
    Thank you for your obedience and discipline in studying God’s word to share His Kingdom message.
    Blessings to you and your family.

  6. what a word PC! Wow wow wow and obsyyyyyy your voice just made me cry instantly the way you sang the song so powerful 🥺‼️

  7. @15:05 is why you should not be reading the Bible because of the misinformation you speak. Some people don’t read but when you do read you’ll know Exodus 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. which is Saturday and also young man 1Corinthians 11:4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head. And the people who believe shame on them

  8. I've been crying for two days. Feeling so broken. My hopes of a new beginning dashed. Trying to pray, all the time. Finally I asked God to forgive me. And to help me.
    This sermon has brought me to my knees. All I want is God. Just to lie at His feet and lay down all the burdens of life. His will. HIS WILL. HIS WILL BE DONE!!! I can't do this anymore. I don't even want to. All I want is God.

  9. I will become closer to good in fact I'm close to God I give him the glory,thanks & praise to him. He will give me restoration, healing, peace and beautiful life, kingdom of paradise I receive this messages. AMEN

  10. Wow I listened to this live while I was in my living room and when Pastor charles said Christ is in the room and he’s entered , I literally fell to the floor in complete surrender 😢God is powerful! Complete freedom! This year I’m starting off by surrendering everything fully to him! Please pray for me TC nation for Gods direction 🙏 so needed this word! Thank you 🙏

  11. I tried the Esther (3 days fast )yesterday when I started praying My main focus was on the list of things I needed for this year it was sad cause I ended up breaking the it just that day. This service had me understand that the main focus has to be on him first, that above anything else closer relationship with him. Thank you pastor Charles for the direction
