Life Issues
Know Where You Stand
Part 1: Are You Building Your Life on the Right Foundation?

Take time to examine your life in the light of God's Word. Drawing lessons from the prophet Haggai, Dr. Michael Youssef calls on the faithful to renew their commitment to advancing God's Kingdom and warns against the temptation to give up in times of crisis.

Key Themes Examined:

  • The Value of Self-Examination in Times of Crisis
  • The Call of Haggai to the Remnant
  • Right People, Right Place, Right Purpose
  • How to Avoid Discouragement and Compromise

Key Points Expanded:

  1. Self-Examination: Dr. Youssef urges Christians to assess their spiritual health frequently. In times of moral confusion, believers must ask, "Am I standing firm on God's Word, or am I being swayed by the culture?"
  2. Faithfulness in Opposition: Just as the Israelites faced discouragement when rebuilding the temple, believers today face similar challenges. Dr. Youssef reminds us that trouble often follows commitment, but the faithful must continue to press on in their mission.
  3. Right Reasons for Serving: Many do good deeds to ease their conscience, but Dr. Youssef stresses that only Christians serve out of gratitude for God’s faithfulness and that their efforts are not in vain.

Are You Prepared to Stand Firm in Christ?

Now more than ever, we must stand firm, renew our commitment to prayer, and pursue the work of God's Kingdom. Don’t miss the next sermon in this powerful series as Dr. Youssef continues to unpack this timely message for today’s believers.
