Something New Is Coming
What If It’s Just a Test?
Keep Knocking Until It Opens
by Pastor Rory Roberts
Jesus warns the church of Laodicea against lukewarm faith, spiritual complacency, and disobedience. While He used spit to bring healing and restoration, He calls us to repent and turn from indifference. Jesus isn’t looking for a comfortable church, but an obedient one that opens the door and answers His call.
In this experience, based on 2 Kings 20:1–9, we explore the power of prayer, faith, and trusting God even when faced with discouraging news. Through Hezekiah’s story, we are reminded to appreciate what God has already done, move with purpose and intention, and recognize that God hears our prayers and sees our circumstances across our past, present, and future. Our bounce back is more than a personal victory; it is a testimony to the world of who God is and a reminder that with Him, what seems impossible can become possible.
Matthew 26 reminds us that everyone sitting at the table with you may not have the same heart or intentions toward you. This episode explores Judas, betrayal, and why we need greater spiritual discernment to recognize the difference between proximity and genuine loyalty. Learn how to trust God for wisdom about who is truly assigned to your life and who may be there with a different agenda.
God has already placed gifts, purpose, and assignments within us, so this season of preparation is about recognizing what He has already given and becoming ready to walk in it. Like Peter, our identity carries responsibility, and sometimes God is telling us to listen, observe, and understand that “it ain’t your time just yet.” Jesus is still interceding for us—preparing us for the assignment, strengthening our faith, and positioning us for what’s next.
Jesus is not always recognized right away, but He is revealed in His own time. Just because people do not see or understand who you are does not mean God does not know who you are. Everyone may not recognize you, but God does. He is keeping you, guiding you, and preparing you. Continue to trust Him and remain faithful, because God will give you your just reward.
God is doing a new thing in our lives, preparing us for something greater than we can see right now. He may not reveal the entire plan at once, but He will give us the next step—so trust Him and follow where He leads. You don’t need to know the whole plan when you know the One who holds the plan.
God is ready to do something new, and He often meets us in unexpected places and moments. Through the story of the Samaritan woman, we see how Jesus breaks barriers, restores our identity, and reminds us that our past does not disqualify us from His purpose. Even when we don’t know what God is doing, we can trust that He has positioned us in the right place and at the right time.
Sometimes God subtracts by adding—using adversity to remove what doesn’t belong, strengthen our faith, and draw us closer to Him. Like Job, we may worship even while we wrestle with questions, trusting that what feels like a test can ultimately position us for greater. Your adversity is not the end of your story; God can restore what was lost and give you even more.
God wants to blanket us with His presence and prepare us to receive what He has for us. His Word will not return void, but we must position ourselves to hear Him and let Him take over. Ask, seek, knock—and keep knocking! Trust God to move beyond every obstacle.
This sermon encourages us to live with expectation, trusting that God is always faithful to His promises. When we believe God and stand firmly on His Word, we can have confidence even when we cannot see the outcome. Be expecting God to move, trust His timing, and hold on to His Word—because what God has promised, He is faithful to fulfill beyond what we can imagine.
