Great Prayers: Uncertainty
from Georgianna Hosted by Georgianna
Sermon by Community Care Pastor Janice Shepard Uncertainty. We all can relate. We live in times of uncertainty. At some point in our lives, we all will be faced with a crisis so overwhelming that it feels like a vast army is coming against us. Something will go down that will threaten our protection, our provision or our peace. It's what we do in that moment that will set the stage for the outcome. Will we panic, become paralyzed by fear, self-soothe with harming behaviors, blame God, or deny Him altogether? Join us Sunday, as we look at one of the Great Prayers of the Bible, offered up by King Jehoshaphat. When faced with a very real and present danger, he humbled himself before God and the entire nation, inquiring of the Lord. His humble and earnest prayer, along with his willingness to worship and praise God even in the thick of his crisis, resulted in God giving victory without the nation ever having to fight at all. Life is messy, disappointing, uncertain. The question is, can we bear the uncertainty? Can we bear not knowing how God is going to provide for our most urgent need and still trust that he will?
