Triumph Over Evil | Pastor Timothy Coats
Have you ever felt like God "ghosted" you in the middle of a crisis?
In this Wednesday Night Bible Study, Pastor Coats dives into Psalm 10, a scripture that tackles the raw, human frustration of feeling forsaken. David starts this Psalm asking the question we are often afraid to voice: "Why, O Lord, do you stand far away?".
But Psalm 10 doesn't stay in the valley of doubt. It moves from questioning God's silence to declaring His sovereignty. This message also issues a stern, timely warning to the modern church about the dangers of becoming "self-appointed judges."
In this service you will learn:
The "Practical Atheist": Why many Christians claim to believe in God, but live their daily lives as if He doesn't exist—believing in Him like they believe in "Santa Claus".
The "Purity Police": A heavy conviction regarding ministries that expose the failures of others. Pastor Coats warns that if you are going to judge someone else's house, you better make sure your own closet is 1,000% clean.
The "Hot Pursuit": The Hebrew meaning behind the wicked "hotly pursuing" the poor, and how it represents a fire of hatred rather than just oppression.
The Ultimate Comfort: Why, at the end of the day—whether dealing with suicide, tragedy, or confusion—the only answer that matters is: "God never makes a mistake".
God sees what you don't see. He isn't ignoring evil; He is preparing to triumph over it.
