You are making progress.
Summary
The sermon addresses the devil's lies about spiritual progress, highlighting the difficult and often unseen nature of growing in faith, particularly in repeated acts of forgiveness. It emphasizes that true progress, though hard-fought and deeper than it appears, is acknowledged by God and should be recognized internally, even if others don't notice. The practical takeaway is to see and internalize your own spiritual growth, trusting God's perspective over outward appearances or the enemy's deception.
