Resolving the Issue of Self

How to Reach Your God-Given Destiny

September 4, 2022 • Pastor Paula White-Cain • Genesis, Hebrews

In this sermon, Pastor Paula White Cain addresses the story of Abraham and Sarah from the book of Genesis. She explains that Sarah had a secret struggle that nobody could see, and that she allowed her flesh to operate over her faith. She emphasizes that no one can reach their destiny until they resolve the issue of self. Pastor Paula then provides seven points which explain how Sarah was able to get to the promise. These points include recognizing who she was, aligning her duties with God's plan, realizing that sight is the most powerful sense, understanding that image is hard to live by, and acknowledging that pain is pain regardless of how it is dressed up. Finally, she encourages the congregation to reflect on their own struggles in order to fulfill the will of God for their lives.
