We’ve all run across parents that give their children whatever they want. It's not hard to see how destructive that can be to the child. I think we can all agree that there are times when a parent should say no and give the child what they need rather than what they want. The same holds true in the Christian life as we’re about to see on Focal Point. God doesn’t always give us what we ask, and for good reason. He has our best interest at heart. Pastor Mike Fabarez takes us to Hebrews four and shows us why we can expect the best kind of help from our heavenly Father. That help may not involve immediate gratification, but it will lead to our good and God’s glory.
If you have ever asked the question, "What is God's will for my life?" then you understand the most profound challenge facing believers today. But is it that difficult to understand?
Learn how God accomplishes his sacred purposes through seemingly ordinary means and what it takes on our part to truly understand what God's will is for our lives.
