The sermon encourages believers to trust in God and not to waver in faith.
Using the example of Hezekiah’s desperate cry to the Lord during a life-threatening illness, Pastor Hearn underscores the significance of pouring out one’s heart to God in times of trouble, citing examples from Acts 3:16, 2 Kings 20:1-3, and Psalm 20:1.
The sermon further emphasizes the power of prayer and supplication, referencing Philippians 4:6, and highlights the miraculous response of God to Hezekiah’s cry, as seen in 2 Kings 20:4-6.
Pastor Hearn concludes by urging believers to never forget the miracles that God has performed, drawing parallels to Hezekiah’s reflection on his recovery in Isaiah 38:9-10 and 38:17.
The message emphasizes the confidence that God, who began a good work, will bring it to completion, as stated in Philippians 1:6, and concludes with a reminder to find joy in the midst of various trials, echoing James 1:2.
