Life has a way of presenting situations that challenge our faith. Illness, financial pressure, family struggles, unanswered prayers, and unexpected disappointments can leave us asking, "God, what are You doing?"
In this powerful message, Pastor Glenn reminded us that faith is not built on what we can see or feel. Faith is built on who God is.
Drawing from Proverbs 3:5-6, Pastor Glenn challenged believers to trust God completely, even when circumstances make no sense. He emphasized that God is still working behind the scenes—even when we cannot see it or feel it.
"Even though I can't see it, You're working. Even though I can't feel it, You're working."
God's Track Record Is Worth Trusting
Pastor Glenn shared his personal testimony of God's healing power and faithfulness. He reminded the congregation that when you know who God is and remember what He has done, praise becomes natural.
God is not just a God of the Bible—He is a God who still heals, delivers, restores, and saves today.
When life gets difficult, believers must learn to lean on God's proven character rather than their current circumstances.
The Enemy Wants You to Doubt
One of the strongest points from the message was the warning against allowing fear and doubt to take root.
Pastor Glenn explained that the enemy often speaks during difficult seasons, attempting to discourage believers and weaken their confidence in God. However, the Word of God gives us the ability to stand firm.
When challenges arise, we must choose faith over fear.
"I don't punk down, I rise up."
The Word you've hidden in your heart becomes your weapon when the battle comes.
Trusting God Requires Total Surrender
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto your own understanding."
Pastor Glenn emphasized the phrase "all your heart." If all of our trust belongs to God, there is no room left for doubt, fear, anxiety, or confusion.
Trusting God means:
Believing Him before you see results.
Following Him when the path isn't clear.
Choosing obedience over convenience.
Trusting His timing over your own.
Prayer Begins With God's Will
Using Jesus' model prayer, Pastor Glenn reminded believers that prayer should begin with surrender.
Before asking God for what we want, we must first acknowledge who He is and align ourselves with His will.
"Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done."
Many struggles would be avoided if believers approached prayer with a heart fully surrendered to God's purpose rather than simply presenting a list of requests.
Real Faith Leads to Real Repentance
Another powerful takeaway from the sermon was the importance of honest self-examination.
Pastor Glenn encouraged believers to move beyond surface-level repentance and allow God to search every area of their hearts. Genuine faith produces genuine transformation.
God is not looking for perfect people. He is looking for surrendered people.
