Bethel Baptist Church

In Confusing Times (Part 2)


Listen Later

In times of widespread confusion and moral chaos, the believer finds rest not through frantic engagement with the world's turmoil, but through a deep, intentional alignment with God's character and purposes. This sermon draws from Psalm 17 to reveal that true peace comes from being thoroughly right with God—maintaining unbroken fellowship through honest self-examination and repentance—so that one can confidently cry out in distress without fear of divine rejection. It emphasizes that in the midst of overwhelming uncertainty, the believer must fully invest in prayer, Scripture, and spiritual disciplines, refusing to substitute personal control for divine sovereignty. Ultimately, the path to peace is found in surrendering the need to fix, manage, or understand everything, trusting that God alone is the source of deliverance and that His plan, though hidden, is always just and good. This posture of faith, rooted in the believer's identity in Christ and sustained by daily communion with Him, enables the child of God to endure confusion without being consumed by it, knowing that all things are working together for good for those who love God and are called according to His purpose.
