In this powerful message, Dr. Nathan Kassas calls believers to shift from self-preservation to God-preservation. Drawing from Gideon’s story, he exposes how fear drives us to protect old identities God is trying to dismantle. Dr. Nathan emphasizes that intimacy, obedience, and transformation come through embracing the process—the daily, often uncomfortable shaping of the Holy Spirit. We are challenged to stop clinging to outcomes and instead partner with God in protecting what He is forming within us. This sermon reminds us that while God guards the promise, we must guard the process, allowing Him to build an identity that can withstand any pressure.
