Weakness is not looked at in a positive light in this world. Even when we feel our weakest, we often try and put on a front to show others we are handling everything. We wear a smiling mask and pretend like we aren’t completely exhausted from the trials we are facing. We build walls around our hearts and don’t let anyone see behind our stronghold because that would make us vulnerable. We are afraid. This is not what God wants for us. He wants us to rest in the assurance that when we aren’t enough, He is. When we are weak, His strength is perfect. When we are in the fire, He is there beside us. We are not meant to rely on our own efforts, we are meant to trust in our Savior, our Rock, and our Deliverer. Often times, as God reveals your fears, He is building your faith. He wants you to have Him as the stronghold of your life. Rely on His power, and His presence to guide you through even the darkest of days. Faith is not the absence of fear, it is moving into where God is calling you despite the fear.
In this message, we hear from Pastor Bruce, the essential truth about our true Protector and Stronghold!
