Some believe that the best way forward in perilous times is to arm yourself with knowledge, to have clear understanding. However the word shows us a better way to be prepared, God’s way:
Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3:4-5 NKJV
A continuation of last week’s message, Faith in Crisis, Pastor Harley explores the lessons learned from the Israelites crossing the Red Sea when pursued by Pharaoh’s charioteers. When faith meets crisis, the Lord of Heaven’s Army intervenes bringing overwhelming victory to God’s people. Just as then, He will now intervene powerfully in your crisis and be an enemy to your enemies.
Crises in life are unavoidable. Current events in our world indicate that we are rushing toward the end of time and Jesus’ return. How can a believer be prepared to stand in faith in such turbulent times? The Word of God contains many examples that will help us navigate the turbulent waters.
The force of faith was designed to work for every believer. Many times it is tested, but even during times of testing faith comes, and it even grows. Jesus disciple John put it this way: “For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.” So let’s learn, grow in faith and live in victory!
It takes a shift in your faith and your focus to receive from God. Faith-infused words become the seed that produces a miracle. Maintaining faith in the face of challenging and adverse circumstances will bring you victory after victory.
Faith is your Servant. When you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, it will carry out its duty, every time.
The storms are coming. The signs that Jesus spoke about in Matthew 24 are increasing both in frequency and intensity.
