Strength in the Struggle

Series: The Story of Redemption

Category: Faith, Character of God

Speaker: Jeff Wyler

In this sermon, we explored how God calls His people—like Joshua and Paul—to move forward with strength and courage, even when facing fear, hardship, or weakness. After Moses' death, Joshua stepped into an intimidating leadership role, but God promised His presence and success if Joshua remained faithful to His Word. Similarly, Paul wrestled with a persistent "thorn" in his life, yet God reminded him that His grace is sufficient and His power is made perfect in weakness. Both men discovered that God's strength isn't found in the absence of struggle, but in trusting Him through it. As believers, we are encouraged to cling to God's presence and promises—especially in seasons of suffering or transition—knowing He will never leave or forsake us.
