Praying You Up l 1 Samuel 3:1-11 l Arnold Sanchez, DMin

You've Got His Attention l Mark 10:46-52 l Arnold Sanchez, DMin

This special midweek message is a reminder that in a world full of noise, distraction, and competing voices, Jesus still stops to hear yours. In You’ve Got His Attention, Arnold Sanchez, DMin shows us that when Bartimaeus cried out, Jesus stood still and asked, “What do you want me to do for you?” That same Savior is not too busy, not too distant, and not too distracted to hear your cry. Even when the world tries to silence you, heaven leans in. You have His full attention. The only question is—when He asks you, will you be ready to answer?

When the Door Shuts l Luke 13:22-30 l Arnold Sanchez, DMin

This week on the House of 1523 Podcast, Pastor Arnold unpacks Jesus’ urgent call to evangelism in Luke 13:22–30. Jesus said the kingdom of God is like a door—and one day, that door will shut. He preached with urgency, moving from town to town, because He knew eternity was at stake. The time to respond is not tomorrow, but today. So here’s the question: When the door shuts, will you be inside—or left standing out?

Praying You Up l 1 Samuel 3:1-11 l Arnold Sanchez, DMin

Today we’re closing out our mini-sermon series on prayer with a powerful message from Arnold Sanchez, DMin, titled “Praying You Up.” In 1 Samuel 3:1–11, we encounter young Samuel, who hears the voice of God but mistakes it for Eli’s. Like Samuel, we often long for answers to our prayers, but when God finally speaks, we can find ourselves running to the wrong person, the wrong place, or even the wrong solution. The story reminds us that hearing God requires not only listening but also being positioned with the right heart and posture. This message challenges us to stop forcing outcomes and trying to make things happen in our own strength. Instead, it calls us to slow down, draw close to God, and let His voice cut through the noise of our own expectations. As you listen, let this passage encourage you: God is speaking, He is guiding, and He is faithful to answer. The invitation today is simple—position yourself near Him, open your heart, and allow His voice to shape your steps.

The Power of Humility l Luke 18:9-14 l Arnold Sanchez, DMin

This week, Pastor Arnold Sanchez, DMin continues our mini-series on prayer with a message from Luke 18:9–14 titled The Power of Humility. In this passage, Jesus contrasts the prayers of a proud Pharisee and a humble tax collector, reminding us that God is not impressed by polished words but by a sincere and contrite heart. If you find yourself weary, broken, or desperate for Jesus, take courage—He hears the humble prayer. Come as you are, and let His mercy meet you in your need.

If He Answered Them, He Will Answer You l Matthew 7:7-12 l Arnold Sanchez, DMin

In today’s episode, you’ll hear a message from Arnold Sanchez, DMin, on Matthew 7:7–12, titled “If He Answered Them, He Will Answer You!” Jesus invites us to ask, to seek, and to knock—reminding us that our Father in heaven delights in giving good gifts to His children. This message is an encouragement for anyone who feels like their prayers have gone unheard, or their persistence has run dry. God is not distant. He is near, and He is listening. We believe God still speaks, still moves, and still answers prayer. So as you lean into this teaching: What prayer have you stopped praying? What door have you stopped knocking on? Tonight, let faith rise in your heart once more—ask again, seek again, knock again.
