Under Pressure

In this week’s sermon, Lead Pastor Chris Baker gives us a glimpse of Paul’s problems that God told him to press through, despite being under pressure that can only be defined as “great”, as a means to bring glory to His kingdom.

A bird does not give up searching for worms today because it didn’t find any yesterday.

Understand that your purpose in Christ doesn’t end because of troubles, or because there is a missing piece in you. God brings out the best in us when faced with trouble, and we have to face the pressure, and pray!

As God is building His people, Pastor Chris figured out that strong rooted, God-fearing people are produced and built under pressure. We will never be able to understand the miracles of God without the troubles of life. The enemy of our souls would love to have us throw in the towel when things get tough.

Keep up the good fight solider!

Questions To Consider:

  • What is more important than carrying the word of God, holding it dear, and allowing it to properly flow through you?
  • The Bible tells us that treasures will be displayed in earthen vessels. How do we obtain this treasure?
  • Are you a diamond in the rough?
  • How are you going to allow Jesus to display the hidden treasures in your life by pressuring you and preparing you for Him?
