Ep. 33 When God’s Promises Seem to Fail: Dealing with Spiritual Disappointment
When God's Promises Seem to Fail: Dealing with Spiritual Disappointment Have you ever followed what you believed was an iron-clad promise from God, only to have everything fall apart? You moved, you trusted, you prayed—and instead of a breakthrough, you got a "smack in the face." If you feel like your faith is at its wit's end, you are not alone. In this powerful teaching, we explore the "mystery of God" and the agonizing moments when it feels like the Lord has deceived us. We dive deep into the life of the Prophet Jeremiah, who cried out, "O Lord, you deceived me, and I was deceived" (Jeremiah 20:7), and we look at the silent years of David and the "unfulfilled" promises of the Israelites. This video answers some of the tough questions Christians ask: Why hasn’t God fulfilled His promise to me yet? Did I hear God wrong, or did He change His mind? What does the Bible say about feeling abandoned or tricked by God? Why does following God sometimes lead to loss instead of blessing? Did God Deceive Me? Why do God’s Promises Feel Like Lies? Why Your Breakthrough Is Delayed Did I Hear God Wrong?
