In this Christmas story message, Bishop Jakes expounds on dealing with the unexpected. Watch as he unpacks how to remain firm in your purpose in this T.D. Jakes sermon, “Can God Trust You With Trouble?”
Life is complicated. Often, we set plans, expectations, and dreams, only to find them shaken up by sudden detours on the road. These upsets can slow us down and discourage us unless we realize that God is the ultimate Master of our destiny, and He sees our path to the end!
Illustrating this, Bishop Jakes turns to the story of Jesus’ earthly parents, Mary and Joseph. When we think of the Christmas story, we think about the blessing and the miracle and the majesty of God with us. For Mary and Joseph, in that present moment, it was a time of turmoil, uncertainty, and fear. The news of her pregnancy, especially in those times, would have been the biggest disruption imaginable for both Mary and Joseph.
Now, we know that God had the best plan for them - a plan through which He saved the entire world - but it’s often challenging to keep this same outlook in our lives when our own plans are wrecked.
As T.D. Jakes points out, God trusted Mary and Joseph with His great and eternal purpose. Can God trust you? Find out how to remain steady in your purpose in T.D. Jakes’ sermon, “Can God Trust You With Trouble?”
