EFM Sermon Replay -- Wait On The Lord

May 25, 2025    Pastor ABE

In this powerful message, we're reminded of the profound importance of waiting on the Lord. Drawing from Acts 1:1-8, we explore how Jesus instructed His disciples to wait for the promise of the Holy Spirit. This waiting isn't passive; it's an active trust in God's timing and promises. Just as the disciples were told to remain in Jerusalem - the very place of their fears and anxieties - we too are called to stay steadfast in our faith, even in challenging circumstances. The sermon beautifully parallels this spiritual waiting with military training, showing how both require patience, trust, and readiness. As we wait on God's promises, we're encouraged to consider the trustworthiness of the Promise Maker - our Creator and Sustainer. This message challenges us to deepen our faith, reminding us that God's promises are more than just words; they're life-changing assurances that we can feel deep in our souls.
