Our Sermons
One of the major challenges that we have as Christians is fear, we are afraid of the future because we do not know what it holds for us, we are afraid in our circumstances because we are not sure of the outcome or because we have been told that the outcome will be bad, but you must always remember what Isaiah says in Isaiah 46:10 (NLT) “Only I can tell you the future before it even happens”.
That means that God knows how it will all turn out; He knows tomorrow and He says to tell you that it shall be well, it does not look like it, it does not feel like it, many times we do not see how the mess can change, we do not see how the ashes can bring forth beauty, or how mourning can ever turn to joy, but the Lord wants you to know that it shall be well
Some times when we are going through stuff, we have well meaning Christians tell us “it is well”, for those of us who have never heard this before we want to ask the person are you blind? What is well about losing your job, what is well about a bill that cannot be paid, what is well about the situation; what is well about a mountain of credit card debt and student loans, but the bible says who art thou O mountain before Zerubbabel you shall be made like a plain, not by power nor by might but by my Spirit says the Lord (paraphrase). What the bible says actually does say is …say to the righteous that it SHALL be well. The mountain SHALL be made as a plain; it SHALL be well with the righteous. It shall be well with those who believe.
