32: When You Can't Understand God's Hand, Trust His Heart (Part 3)
In today’s episode, Dr. Siohvaughn Funches continues the series, “When You Don’t Understand the Hand of God, Trust the Heart of God.” We need to do what we’re called to do and walk by faith, not by sight and really trust the heart of God. Dr. Funches encourages you to go back and listen to the previous episodes in this series.
Dr. Funches introduces this message by reviewing from John 11:1-3, the account of Mary and Martha sending for Jesus to heal their brother Lazarus from his serious illness. Today, we do not send for Jesus but we pray in faith and He sends us forth to do greater works and carry the presence of God at all times and anywhere.
Dr. Funches continues with the story of Mary, Martha, and Lazarus with her teachings on God’s love and creative power of speaking words of life by the perfect will of God. Dr. Funches also examines Jesus bringing to life the daughter of Jairus, the raising from death of the son of the widow of Nain, and Elisha raising the son of the Shunammite woman. Dr. Funches stresses our need to trust in the love of God, even when we don’t see His purposes for us.
Listen in to hear how you can trust in God’s heart as a New Covenant believer of Jesus.

[16:31] John 11:7–11, NKJV 7 Then after this He said to the disciples, “Let us go to Judea again.” 8 The disciples said to Him, “Rabbi, lately the Jews sought to stone You, and are You going there again?” 9 Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world. 10 But if one walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.” 11 These things He said, and after that, He said to them, “Our friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go that I may wake him up.”
