Higher Ground | Raise The Standard
from Chosen Podcast Hosted by Studio B.
Speaker: Pastor Baron Samuel Series: Higher GroundScripture: Daniel 1:8-20 Recorded: July 5, 2026 Welcome to Week One of our new sermon series, Higher Ground. In this message, Raise the Standard, we discover that spiritual growth begins when we stop lowering God’s standards to fit our lives and instead allow God to raise our lives to match His purpose. Through the example of Daniel, we’ll learn how unwavering conviction, godly character, and faithful obedience position us to live above compromise in a culture that constantly encourages us to settle. If you’ve ever felt pressured to blend in, compromise your values, or become comfortable in your walk with God, this message is for you. God isn’t calling us to perfection—He’s calling us to pursue Him with greater faith, greater integrity, and a higher standard. Scripture References: • Daniel 1:8–20 • Romans 12:2 • 1 Peter 1:15–16 • Matthew 6:33 If this message encouraged you, be sure to subscribe, share it with someone who needs hope, and join us next week as we continue our Higher Ground series with Think Higher, where we’ll learn how changing our perspective can change our future.
