After revival on Mount Carmel came fear, threats, and discouragement. In 1 Kings 19, Elijah fled from Jezebel and momentarily lost sight of the God whose power he had just witnessed.

This message reminds us that the hostility of the world is real, but God remains sovereign, present, and faithful. When the threats of this world shake us, we must remember that God is bigger than our fears and greater than our perspective.

Genesis 11:10–32 records the genealogy from Shem to Abram, but this passage is far more than a list of names. It is a testimony that God is faithfully preserving His word and accomplishing His redemptive plan, even when the world is marked by rebellion, corruption, and idolatry.

This sermon encourages believers to trust the Lord’s faithfulness throughout history, despite man’s corruption, and according to His enduring word. God has been faithful, God is faithful, and God will forever be faithful.

The Tower of Babel is more than a childhood story about a tall tower and confused languages. Genesis 11:1–9 reveals the deadly pride of man: the desire to make a name for ourselves, live apart from dependence on God, and assert our will over His.

In this sermon, Ben Smith, Sr. examines the pride of ability, the pride of self-sufficiency, and the pride of mastery, calling believers to reject the illusion of independence and humble themselves before the sovereign God.
