Persevering Faith Pt. 3

In continuing through Hebrews 11, Pastor Lance takes a deeper look at the life of Noah and his persevering faith. He reiterates that “faith is living in absolute confidence that what God said, He will do, even when the fullness of the promise has yet to be fulfilled.” Genesis 6 talks about the state of the world and time that Noah lived in, how evil was rampant, and God had compassion on (and grief for) mankind because of the horrifying effects of sin. His judgment was deterred by His grace and mercy, but Noah still had work to do! Pastor Lance shows how Noah was obedient in the face of opposition and hostility, for 120 years. How enduring is your faith? How has God called you to live out your faith in a time when the world is against Him and His people? Pastor Lance argues that faith must obey that which it believes, out of love and reverence for God. Are you moving in this season, or letting it pass you by? What kind of influence is your faith having on those around you?
