Episode notes
James, the leader in Jerusalem, faced a world turned upside down. His message offers God's answer and resource for anyone facing crisis today.
The principle = “Don’t ask why, ask what.”
Three “what” questions survivors ask:
1. What can I control when my world falls apart?
2. What must I do to make it through today?
3. What hope do I have for tomorrow?
The answer = God’s sovereignty + goodness = He will take my worst circumstances and use them for my best if I will trust Him and not bail out of His spiritual maturity process.
I. The problem: sometimes we get “stuck” in our pain.
II. The solution: God promises help for those who are “stuck.” -Jas. 1:5-8
- God’s offer = supernatural WISDOM
- Our responsibility = to ASK
- God’s attitude when we come = OPEN & GENEROUS
