What To Do When God Takes His Time

Genesis 15:1-6

November 14, 2021 • Dr. Delman Coates • Genesis 15:1–6

As believers, we have all faced times when God takes His time to manifest His promises or your requests. This is the dilemma that faced Abram in Genesis 15. He has a promise from God, but it seems as if God is taking His sweet time. Abram found himself at that point where most people never realize their dream or experience what God has for them because the passage of time causes them to give up on God. So in this message, we’re going to learn a lot from the story of Abram and take away some lessons on what we need to do when God takes His time fulfilling a promise He’s given you.

Stand On It

September 15, 2024 • Dr. Delman Coates • Joshua 1:1–9

In today’s key text, the Lord gives us guidance on how we can stand on His promises. What stands out to me are the three assurances found in verse 5 that we can stand on. He says, “As I was with Moses, so shall I be with you, I will never leave you nor forsake you.” That’s good news! As we go from one season or station in life to another, what will help us to successfully navigate this season is to be able to stand solidly, securely, and firmly on the three assurances God makes in this text. So let’s dive in together.

No Wire Hangers

September 8, 2024 • Dr. Delman Coates • Matthew 23:23–28

Today we are going to talk about the importance of having a humble heart that is open to God’s work. In our key passage of Scripture, Jesus is talking about the religious leaders of the day and how they were so focused on appearing spiritually strong on the outside, but they didn’t focus at all on their internal spiritual strength. We can’t neglect what’s going on inside of us because we’re too distracted by how we are perceived by others. In order to make sure we don’t make this mistake, there are four steps we can take.

Don't Count Me Out

September 1, 2024 • Dr. Delman Coates • Matthew 27:55–61, Matthew 28:1–8

We have perfected the art of discarding people when they are no longer deemed useful. We have mastered the art of disposing of people once their value has been extracted. But I want to challenge us to become countercultural in this regard. In today’s key text, Mary makes it clear that when others try to disqualify you, you don’t have to let them count you out. There is another path to take.
