"My Grace is Sufficient for You" // 2 Corinthians 12:5-10 // Trey Hayman
Have you ever prayed for God to do something and felt like He wouldn't?
What happens when we pray and our circumstances don't change? What happens when we ask God for healing and it doesn't seem to happen?
How do we respond when we deal with chronic pain, depression, anxiety, etc.?
In this message we look at Paul's "thorn in the flesh" and what that teaches us about God, prayer, suffering, and walking in a broken world. We pray it's a healing word for you.
2 Corinthians 12:5-10 (NLT)
That experience is worth boasting about, but I’m not going to do it. I will boast only about my weaknesses. 6 If I wanted to boast, I would be no fool in doing so, because I would be telling the truth. But I won’t do it, because I don’t want anyone to give me credit beyond what they can see in my life or hear in my message, 7 even though I have received such wonderful revelations from God. So to keep me from becoming proud, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger from Satan to torment me and keep me from becoming proud.8 Three different times I begged the Lord to take it away. 9 Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. 10 That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
