-
power power often we as Christians we get so caught often we as Christians we get so caught often we as Christians we get so caught up that we tend to start underestimating up that we tend to start underestimating up that we tend to start underestimating the power of God we wrestle with this this this this idea we wrestle with this this this this idea because God's not showing up we start because God's not showing up we start because God's not showing up we start questioning the power of God because questioning the power of God because questioning the power of God because there's so much evil in this world the there's so much evil in this world the there's so much evil in this world the first question is is if God's all first question is is if God's all first question is is if God's all powerful then why is it so much powerful then why is it so much powerful then why is it so much evil we ask questions based on our evil we ask questions based on our evil we ask questions based on our personal context can God help me deal personal context can God help me deal personal context can God help me deal with this addiction I've been battling with this addiction I've been battling with this addiction I've been battling with all my life can God help relieve me with all my life can God help relieve me with all my life can God help relieve me from this power of of sin that has me in from this power of of sin that has me in from this power of of sin that has me in bondage with every time I just want to bondage with every time I just want to bondage with every time I just want to say yes to God I go running back to the say yes to God I go running back to the say yes to God I go running back to the sin that I said I won't do again reques sin that I said I won't do again reques sin that I said I won't do again reques the power of God and I'm here to tell you that if we don't understand the you that if we don't understand the power that we are connected power that we are connected power that we are connected to we will find to we will find to we will find ourselves missing out on some big things see because I understand the power of see because I understand the power of God I can walk into a room and God I can walk into a room and God I can walk into a room and automatically say my God is better see cuz I walk with the reality better see cuz I walk with the reality that my God is that my God is that my God is better I got more but for the sake of
-
better I got more but for the sake of better I got more but for the sake of time let's go to First Kings chapter 18 time let's go to First Kings chapter 18 time let's go to First Kings chapter 18 First Kings chapter 18 I love this this First Kings chapter 18 I love this this First Kings chapter 18 I love this this this passage because this is what Elijah this passage because this is what Elijah this passage because this is what Elijah is is is saying and I love the conversation saying and I love the conversation saying and I love the conversation Elijah is having because I think this is Elijah is having because I think this is Elijah is having because I think this is the conversation we need to start having the conversation we need to start having the conversation we need to start having because one of the things I want to see because one of the things I want to see because one of the things I want to see in in in 2025 is that the same passion and Zeal 2025 is that the same passion and Zeal 2025 is that the same passion and Zeal that you Christians defend your that you Christians defend your that you Christians defend your political political political views is the same passion and Zeal that views is the same passion and Zeal that views is the same passion and Zeal that you stand for the word of God some of you go to bat where you'll God some of you go to bat where you'll tear away tear away tear away relationships for the sake of a relationships for the sake of a relationships for the sake of a political party but when it comes to political party but when it comes to political party but when it comes to Jesus Christ when it comes to Defending Jesus Christ when it comes to Defending Jesus Christ when it comes to Defending Your Faith when it comes to expressing Your Faith when it comes to expressing Your Faith when it comes to expressing why you believe what you believe you be like you can give me policies for all like you can give me policies for all the Democrats all the Republicans but the Democrats all the Republicans but the Democrats all the Republicans but tell me about [Applause] [Applause] Jesus so I say to to you Jesus so I say to to you Jesus so I say to to you today it says so Ahab sent all the today it says so Ahab sent all the today it says so Ahab sent all the people of Israel and gathered the people of Israel and gathered the people of Israel and gathered the prophets together of Mount Carmel and prophets together of Mount Carmel and prophets together of Mount Carmel and Elijah came near to all the people and Elijah came near to all the people and Elijah came near to all the people and said how said how said how long will you go limping between two long will you go limping between two long will you go limping between two different different different opinions how long will you go limping opinions how long will you go limping opinions how long will you go limping between two different opinions if the between two different opinions if the between two different opinions if the Lord is God follow

Summary
The sermon centers on God's unwavering grace, emphasizing that despite our brokenness, Jesus' sacrifice grants us intimate access to God's presence. Scripture and divine names like Adonai and Jehovah Rafa are invoked to highlight God's multifaceted nature. The core takeaway is to embrace this access and recognize that "our God is better," empowering us to face the future with confidence.
