Private: Faith, Hope & Luck

A message by: Andy Stanley

None of us likes to be told no. But a “no” from God is more than difficult; it is disappointing. In this message, Andy Stanley explains that when God says no, it is not a reflection of your faith; it is perhaps your greatest opportunity to become a reflection of his grace. We’ve heard amazing stories of answered prayer. A friend was healed. A marriage was restored. A check arrived in the mail. And in these circumstances, we are ecstatic about God’s goodness, mercy, and interest in our lives. Go God! But our prayers aren’t always answered to our liking. What about the times when they seem to go unheard? What do we do when God apparently says no? Does it take more faith to endure a no from God than to receive a yes?
