Encounters With Revelation
In this powerful message, we're challenged to confront the spiritual battles that await us in the coming year. The story of Elijah from 1 Kings 19 serves as a stark reminder that even after great victories, we can become vulnerable to fear and discouragement. Just as Elijah fled from Jezebel's threats, we too may be tempted to run from our challenges. However, we're reminded that God often speaks to us not in the dramatic events, but in the 'still, small voice.' This teaches us the importance of quieting the external noise and our internal doubts to truly hear God's guidance. Pastor Gerri emphasizes that our spiritual breakthroughs may stir resentment in others, but we must not let this deter us. Instead, we're called to be disciples who run towards the fight, not deserters who run away. As we enter the new year, let's commit to seeking God's revelation, not just making resolutions. By aligning ourselves with God's voice and vision, we can overcome fear and step into the triumph He has prepared for us.
