He Is… - Week 3

The sermon explores how to align personal plans with God's will, using the story of Jesus raising Lazarus as a central example. It emphasizes that God's plan involves Him revealing Himself to individuals, in them, and through them. Key obstacles to following God's path include impatience with His timing, clinging to personal agendas, and a limited perspective. The speaker illustrates these points with anecdotes about parenthood and college experiences, as well as biblical references. Listeners are encouraged to recognize that God's love focuses on meeting their needs rather than fulfilling wants, and to trust in His goodness, faithfulness, and sovereignty even when His plan is unclear or painful. The ultimate purpose is for believers to participate in God's work, bringing others from spiritual death to life and freedom.
