Charles Stanley  Radio Classic: Praying in Crisis. When we face hardship, prayer not only reminds us of God’s rightful place in our life but also sustains us.

Not Everything You Hear Is True - Rick Warren Daily Devotional (January-23-2024). “The gullible believe anything they're told; the prudent sift and weigh every word.” Proverbs 14:15 (The Message)

If you spend any time on your phone or watching TV these days, you’re going to get a lot of information from a lot of different sources. It’s important, now more than ever, to remember that not everything you hear is true.

The Bible says in Proverbs 14:15, “The gullible believe anything they’re told; the prudent sift and weigh every word” (The Message). Not everybody who speaks on the Internet, social media, TV, or radio knows what they’re talking about. Not everybody who’s talking is worth listening to. You need to be selective! Many people take advantage of any crisis and bring to it their own agenda. There will be some who try to use difficult days for their own political or financial advantage. They will scare people into making rash decisions. Don’t fall for it! Proverbs 14:8 says, “The wise man looks ahead. The fool attempts to fool himself and won’t face facts” (TLB).

The Bible repeatedly says that, especially in a crisis, you should always base your decisions and actions on the facts—not faulty statistics, fads, fear, or feelings. God has given you everything you need to be wise and prudent in a crisis. You can test everything against his Word and have the confidence that it will always steer you in the way of wisdom. As a follower of Jesus, you have the Holy Spirit to give you discernment. And you’ve got good sense too! It is a gift from God, and it’s important to use your reason and caution in a crisis.

As disciples of Jesus, we should not just be people of faith. We should be people of facts.

“Get the facts at any price, and hold on tightly to all the good sense you can get” (Proverbs 23:23 TLB).

 Talk It Over

  • How do you test information you find on social media before sharing it with others?
  • What would you tell someone who doesn’t trust anyone during a crisis?
  • Why is it important for Jesus’ disciples to be known as people of facts?
 

Matt Hagee - Watch Sunday Sermon: The Crisis of Faith. The government is trying to tell us what we can and cannot believe, what we can and cannot do. The foundation of the United States was built by soldiers who selflessly gave their lives for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Currently, our freedoms are under attack. Are you putting your faith in God or the government?

Don't Waste Your Crisis - Dr. Carolyn D. Showell, Sunday Sermon. Scripture: Genesis 1:28, 2:8 (KJV) We were blessed from the beginning, but that doesn't mean our lives are exempt from a crisis. Sometimes, God will evolve you through a storm. It's an opportunity to lean into Him and ask who it is you need to become. Don't resist the hour of crisis, for through it lies your transformation. Discover who you are by refusing to stand still in defeat. Starting this week, praise God that it's all working together for your good!

Tony Evans - Message: God Wants to Reveal Himself Through This Crisis. "God, why are you allowing me to go through this?" If you are asking that question right now, I encourage you to take a step back and look at what God is revealing through the crisis.
