OUR CONFIDENCE WHEN DANGERS INCREASE

This sermon explores Psalm 27:2-3, focusing on how believers can maintain enduring confidence when facing increasing dangers and threats. Pastor Mike emphasizes that God's faithfulness remains constant regardless of our circumstances. The message challenges the congregation to reframe their understanding of "enemies" beyond just people to include anything that threatens their spiritual well-being—temptations, sinful patterns, or difficult situations. The core teaching centers on the truth that when danger escalates from individual enemies to armies to prolonged warfare, our confidence must be rooted not in favorable outcomes but in God's unchanging faithfulness. The sermon calls believers to name their threats honestly, rehearse God's past faithfulness rather than their fears, and trust in God's sustaining grace even when He doesn't immediately remove difficulties.
