Facing Opposition (PM): How do I persevere when I feel weary?
2w ago00:37:12Tap to summarizeBrandon preached about how our posture should be when facing prolonged opposition. Prolonged opposition can lead to discouragement and weariness, causing us to lose focus. Weariness is not a sign that God has abandoned us, it is often where His strength is revealed most powerfully. God is everlasting and He doesn’t grow tired or weary. We are created to be totally dependent on Him even when facing opposition.

Facing Opposition (PM): What do I do when I face opposition?
3w ago00:32:52Tap to summarizeBrandon emphasised that opposition is a normal part of a Christian life. Like David, we can face every challenge with confidence, trusting in God’s presence for our strength, guidance and deliverance refusing to let fear drown out God’s voice. As we seek God, obey His leading and patiently wait on Him, we can remain confident that we will experience His goodness in the land of the living.

Facing Opposition: Understanding Spiritual Warfare and living in Christ's Victory (AM)
Jun 2100:46:27Tap to summarizeStan preached on facing opposition and emphasized that spiritual warfare but christians must avoid seeing a demon behind every problem or ignoring the spiritual real altogether. God uses trials to grow and refine us, the enemy seeks to use suffering, success, conflict and fear to draw us away from God’s purposes. We need God’s wisdom to discern the source of our struggles; while deliverance may sometimes be necessary, repentance, humility and perseverance are always required.

The battle behind the battle: Understanding opposition and Christ's victory (AM)
Jun 1400:51:42Tap to summarizeStan shared in today’s sermon that the battle behind every battle was ultimately won by Jesus at the cross (Isaiah 53:5-6, Romans 3:25-26, Galatians 3:13 and 1 Peter 2:24). Through Penal Substitution, Christ took the punishment that our sin deserved, satisfying God’s justice and removing the debt that separated us from Him. He also highlighted Christus Victor - the truth that Jesus did more than forgive sin: He defeated the powers of darkness that held humanity captive. Ultimately, the cross is both a place of reconciliation and victory. Whatever opposition we face today, we do so from a position of Christ’s finished victory, not for victory.

Nehemiah: The Opposition A Leader Will Face (AM)
Jun 700:49:49Tap to summarizeStan took us through the book of Nehemiah 6. The enemy often shifts from attacking the work itself to attacking the leader through distraction, intimidation and deception in an attempt to derail God’s purpose. Like Nehemiah, we must remain discerning and steadfast by saying yes to what strengthens our calling, standing on the word of God in the face of fear and rejecting deceptive compromises disguised as wisdom.
