God Is Faithful Even If You’re Not | David Wilkerson

About this sermon

David Wilkerson exposes how Abraham, the father of faith, twice put his wife in pagan harems to save his own skin. Yet, God remained faithful to his eternal purpose, proving that while we are faithless, God cannot deny himself or his nature. Preached: December 24, 1995 Main Points: • Abraham, the man of faith who received God's promises of protection, twice told half-lies about Sarah being his sister and watched her taken into pagan harems while he collected dowries and wealth from his cowardice. • For nine months, Abraham slept knowing his wife was in Pharaoh's hands, yet God plagued the house so severely that no man could touch her because the promised seed had to come through an unpolluted lineage. • Abraham repeated the same sin with Abimelech, proving that even godly people keep making the same stupid mistakes they thought they'd learned from decades ago. • God told Abimelech, "I restrained you from touching her," revealing God's restraining power that has kept us from the most horrible mistakes when we were halfway to destroying our lives and ministries. • Peter cursed and denied Christ with a stream of profanity, David pretended to be insane with spit running down his beard, yet God's eternal purpose was not thwarted because he saw their broken hearts. • The only thing that can abort God's plan for your life is stubborn pride that justifies sin instead of running to the mountain to weep as David did after his failures. • Wilkerson confessed feeling inadequate to be God's voice in the last days until the Lord said, "While you're lying on this bed fretting, I'm at work being faithful to my eternal purpose in your life." • God takes weak, faithless men and puts them in pulpits to pastor multitudes because he cannot deny his faithful nature, even when we've wallowed in unbelief and grieved him deeply. – 🌍 Live out James 1:27.
