Defending a Lion | Cut Open by God’s Word: Defending a Lion (Part 3)

In this powerful message, Dr. Michael Youssef reveals how the Word of God operates like a divine scalpel—cutting, exposing, and healing the human heart. Drawing from Hebrews 4:12–13, he outlines three life-changing effects of reading, heeding, and obeying Scripture: it stretches us bare before God, it pierces and removes hidden sin, and it heals with complete restoration. With urgency and clarity, Dr. Youssef warns that Satan, the world, and our flesh work to keep us off God’s operating table. But when we surrender to the authority of God’s Word, we find mercy, grace, and spiritual renewal. This message will deepen your reverence for Scripture and strengthen your resolve to live by it—no matter the cost.
