Second Guessing The Blessing

Second Guessing The Blessing Have you ever prayed for something, received it, and then started questioning it? Sometimes we know God has blessed us, yet we still doubt His plan. We ask questions like, "Is this really God's will?""Did God really answer my prayer?" or "Will this blessing last?" While we often think doubt comes before the blessing, many times it arrives after God has already provided the answer. In this message, we examine the account of Thomas in John chapter 20 and discover the dangers of second guessing what God has already done. Thomas knew who Jesus was, yet he doubted what had already taken place. Many believers find themselves doing the same thing today. This message challenges us not to discredit the blessing, overlook the blessing, miss out on the blessing, or forget the One who gave the blessing. God's blessings do not always come in the package we expected, but they are blessings nonetheless. Mary looked directly at Jesus and did not recognize Him. Thomas doubted until he saw. Nine lepers received their healing and walked away, but only one returned to thank the Lord. The question is not whether God is blessing us—the question is whether we recognize it.

Your Life Isn't Falling Apart It's Falling Into Place

Sometimes life feels like it is falling apart. Plans change, pressures increase, prayers seem delayed, and suddenly the pieces do not make sense anymore. But what if God is allowing certain things to shake because He is placing the pieces exactly where they need to be? In this message from 1 Thessalonians chapter 5, we look at how believers are called to remain faithful, prayerful, thankful, and sober during difficult seasons of life. Fear says everything is ruined — but faith reminds us that God is still working. This message encourages believers to trust the process, lean on the Lord, and remember that even pressure and trials can be used by God to mold us into vessels fit for His use. The pieces may feel scattered now, but God knows exactly where they belong.

Beware the Deceivers

Beware of the Deceivers In this message, we are warned about the growing danger of deception and the importance of discernment in the days we are living in. The Bible makes it clear that not everything that sounds right is right, and not everyone who claims truth is truly speaking the truth of God’s Word. Deceivers often do not appear obviously wrong — they come in a form that seems convincing, appealing, and even spiritual. That is why it is so important for believers to stay grounded in Scripture, test everything they hear, and develop discernment through the Word of God. This message challenges us to examine what we are listening to, who we are following, and whether what we are hearing lines up with the truth of the Bible. In a world filled with voices, opinions, and false teaching, we must be rooted in God’s Word so that we are not led astray. Discernment is not optional — it is necessary.

Stand and Wait

Stand and Wait In this message, we look at Acts chapter 1 and the command given by Jesus for His disciples to wait on the promise of the Father. In a world that constantly pushes us to move faster, decide quicker, and act without delay, God’s Word reminds us that there are times when we must simply stand still and wait on Him. Too often, we rush ahead of God without seeking Him in prayer, without listening for His direction, and without trusting His timing. But Scripture teaches us to stand in His way, seek His will, and walk in it. True peace and rest come when we are willing to wait on the Lord and accept His answer — whether it is yes, no, or wait. This message also reminds us to reflect on the “infallible proofs” of what God has already done in our lives. When we remember His faithfulness, it strengthens our belief and helps us trust Him in the present. Even when we do not understand the season we are in, we are not called to stand and wonder, but to stand and witness. The disciples did not stop when Jesus left their sight — they continued in one accord, in prayer, and in obedience. In the same way, we are called to remain faithful, stay focused, and trust God until His promises are fulfilled.

Bitter Or Better

Bitter or Better This episode is a little different from the normal format of Frontline Faith. This message is a pre-recorded sermon from a service at Old Time Baptist, shared during a special week as my family has been blessed with a new baby. I thank the Lord for His goodness and the many blessings He gives. Even though this message comes from a previous service, its truth is timely and needed. Life brings trials, difficulties, and moments that test our faith. The question is not whether these situations will come, but how we will respond when they do. Will the hardships of life make you bitter… or will they make you better? This message encourages believers to examine their response to trials and to allow God to use those moments to strengthen their faith, draw them closer to Him, and shape them into what He would have them to be.
