A Small Step (Part 2)
What if the miracle you're waiting for is on the other side of one more step of obedience?
Continuing our series, Small Things Make a Big Difference, Pastor Dale Oquist returns to the story of Naaman in 2 Kings 5. After traveling over 100 miles in search of healing, Naaman discovers that God was after something even greater than a cure. Through humble obedience, God reveals Himself.
This message reminds us that partial obedience is still disobedience, and that God often uses our greatest struggles to draw us into a deeper relationship with Him. The breakthrough you long for may begin with simply taking the next faithful step.
This message explores:
Why God wanted more than just to heal Naaman
The danger of partial obedience
Why faith requires perseverance
How God often works through the small things
What it means to be faithful in the present
Why your greatest struggle may lead to your greatest encounter with God
How obedience prepares us for the miracles God wants to do
