About this episode
What if the greatest obstacle to seeing what God is doing is what you THINK you already know about Him?In this verse-by-verse sermon from John 7:25–31, Pastor Jon Groves explores a crowd that nearly missed Jesus because they were so confident in their own understanding of who the Messiah should be.Standing in the
temple, Jesus was openly teaching while religious leaders plotted against Him. Some questioned His identity. Others wondered why He hadn't been arrested. Still others began to believe because they recognized the evidence already standing before them.From this powerful passage, we discover three life-changing biblical truths:1. Don't let what you THINK you know keep you from what God is trying to SHOW.2. The enemy cannot make a move until the time that God approves.3. You don't need another sign when Jesus has already proven Himself faithful.What does the Bible teach about God's sovereignty and human responsibility? Can opposition interrupt God's purpose? What happens when our personal interpretation of Scripture becomes more important than Scripture itself? And how much more would Jesus have to do before we finally surrender to Him?Through John 7, the story of Joseph, the trials of Job, and the miracles of Jesus, this message challenges us to stop demanding that God operate according to our expectations and start trusting what He has revealed in His Word.You may only see a page, but God sees the whole story.SCRIPTURE: John 7:25–31 (ESV)PREACHER: Pastor Jon GrovesCHURCH: Honor Church | Lake Mary, FloridaABOUT HONOR CHURCHHonor Church is a Bible-preaching, Christ-centered church serving Lake Mary, Longwood, Altamonte Springs, Sanford, and the greater North Orlando community.We believe in verse-by-verse biblical preaching, authentic community, passionate worship, and reaching people with the life-changing Gospel of Jesus Christ.Join us in person every Sunday at 9:00 AM or 11:00 AM in Downtown Lake Mary, Florida.Visit: https://honor.churchIf this sermon encouraged or challenged you, subscribe to the channel, leave a comment, and share this message with someone who needs to be reminded that God knows what they don't.QUESTION FOR YOU:Have you ever discovered that God was doing something completely different from what you expected?
