"What Do You Hear & See"

This sermon challenges believers to reconsider their expectations of God and their calling as disciples. Drawing from Matthew 11, the pastor explores how even John the Baptist struggled with unmet expectations while imprisoned, questioning whether Jesus was truly the Messiah. The core message emphasizes that Christians are called to be "greater than John the Baptist" not through their own strength, but through the indwelling Holy Spirit that enables daily surrender to God's will. The sermon calls particularly to seniors and all believers to reject cultural lies about decline and instead embrace their divine appointments, understanding that God never retires His servants. True transformation comes through the daily practice of believing God's Word, receiving His Spirit, and conceding (surrendering) our will to His through prayer and obedience.
