Faith’s Answer to Fear

In a world filled with fear and uncertainty, we're reminded that our faith has a powerful answer. The message centers on Psalm 11, where David grapples with the destruction of foundations. We're challenged to consider: do we have faith in God, or the faith of God? This distinction is crucial as we navigate turbulent times. The story of Jesus calming the storm illustrates this beautifully - having faith in Jesus led the disciples to wake Him, but lacking the faith of Jesus caused their fear. We're encouraged to trust in God's eternal promises rather than temporary circumstances. The message emphasizes that while we may face persecution and difficulties, these often lead to the church's growth and revival. We're reminded of God's promise in Hebrews 13:5 - He will never, never leave us. This repetition in the original Greek underscores God's unwavering presence in our lives. As we face our fears, we're called to worship our way through anxiety, magnifying the Lord together and finding strength in community.
