The Wrestlings Of Kingdom Men

Jeremiah 12:1-5

June 19, 2022 • Jeff Lyle • Jeremiah 12:1–5

The modern Christian man often finds himself wrestling. He wrestles with questions about identity, faith and God. He wrestles in his singleness, his role as a husband, his effectiveness as a father and his limitations when he is pulled between family, faith and career. The modern Christian man wrestles with his flesh at times. And then there remains the reality that faithful sons of God always carry a bullseye on their backs from the enemy of their souls. These realities, coupled with a world full of pressures, deception, and danger leave many Christian men feeling as if they are running out of air. God once spoke to an ancient prophet of His who was wrestling with some of these same issues. You may be surprised at how God responded to His servant’s complaints. Men today need to heed the immeasurably wise counsel of God to sons who are tempted to tap-out on the wrestling match. It is time for Christian men to reclaim their confidence and motivation for the fight.
