Listen "Trusting Sovereignty for Enduring Peace"
Episode Synopsis
This sermon instructs listeners on how to find peace when personal circumstances are difficult or stressful, using the context of the Christmas season as an example. Drawing heavily on John 12:36-43, it first addresses the scriptural question of why people failed to believe in Jesus despite witnessing his seven major signs and abundant miracles. The explanation is rooted in the fulfillment of prophecy from Isaiah, which leads to the first point for attaining peace: trusting in God's sovereign plan. Furthermore, the speaker emphasizes that lasting peace requires believers to focus on the stability of Christ, urging them to behold the glory of Christ, rather than focusing on temporary troubles. Finally, the sermon warns against the loss of internal peace experienced by those who live for man's approval instead of God's, noting that integrity and authentic faith are essential for a stable spiritual life.
