This sermon presents a powerful exposition of authentic faith through the story of a Canaanite woman who persistently seeks Jesus despite three escalating obstacles: His silence, His declaration that He was sent only to Israel, and His metaphorical reference to her as a dog. The preacher emphasizes that true faith is not merely intellectual assent but a persistent, humble, and worshipful trust in Jesus as Lord and Messiah, even when God's actions seem contrary to one's hopes. The woman's faith is validated not by her ethnicity or background, but by her unwavering persistence, her agreement with God's truth, and her reliance on His character and promises, demonstrating that salvation is available to anyone who comes with genuine, faithful trust. The sermon concludes by calling believers to a deeper, more faithful faith—directed to Christ in worship, sustained through trials, and rooted in the conviction that God's promises are trustworthy, even when His timing is mysterious.
