WORSHIP SERVICE AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - MARCH 23, 2025
This week, Pastor Brian will be preaching the third and last sermon in the series "CONTENTMENT IN THE MIDST OF CALAMITY". The first sermon's focus was on I. Contentment Comes in "Knowing God Provides", and the second sermon was about the fact that II. Contentment Comes "Through a Process of Learning". This week's focus will be III. Contentment Comes "Through God's Power". We all face trials and calamities in our lives. God allows us to go through difficult times so our faith and trust in Him will grow and flourish. In Philippians 4, we see that Paul had reached a point where He could be content and joyful even in the worst of situations because his joy and contentment were in God, not fixed to his circumstances ... but he was able to reach this point only by knowing that God provides, learning through the trials and calamities that God allowed, and specifically through the Power of God that sustained him every single moment. Paul was able to see beyond his circumstances and focus entirely on what would bring God glory and honor and the fact that he knew that heaven awaited him when his work on earth was accomplished.
2 Corinthians 12:9-10
9 But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
10 For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
