We Trust in God, Part 1

How do God’s people respond when life becomes difficult? When trials come unexpectedly, when fear threatens to overwhelm us, and when circumstances seem beyond our control, Scripture continually calls us to place our confidence in the Lord.

In this message from Flint River Primitive Baptist Church, Elder Ben Winslett begins a study on trusting God in the midst of life’s afflictions. Drawing from the account of Jesus and His disciples on the Sea of Galilee, we consider Peter’s walk upon the water, the danger of taking our eyes off Christ, and the gracious way our Savior rescues His people when their faith falters.

This message also concludes a recent series on the resurrection, suffering, and the hope that God’s children possess through Jesus Christ. As believers, we are reminded that while troubles are inevitable in this world, God remains sovereign, faithful, and worthy of our trust.

Love and Assurance, Fear and Torment

In today’s episode of Words of Grace, Ben Winslett considers 1 John 4:14-18, and the correlation between love and assurance, and fear and torment. Drawing from the Apostle John’s words, we learn how love reflects God’s presence, provides assurance, and drives out fear. What does it mean to confess Christ and abide in God’s love? How does love combat the torment of fear in our lives? Join us as we unpack these truths and discover how walking in love strengthens our faith and reduces our fears. This message is a timely reminder of God’s perfect love that casts out fear.
