The sermon is from 2 Chronicles 20:1-30 – “Jehoshaphat and the Choir”. “We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.” – 2 Chronicles 20:12

Prosperity preachers “sell a bill of goods.” They promise their hearers peace and popularity. To those with enough “faith,” health and wealth are just around the corner. This runs totally counter to the teaching of the Apostles – “… through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God (Acts 14:23).” Tribulations (and at times confusion) cause true disciples to look to God in newfound dependence, trust, and hope (See Romans 5:1-5; 1 Peter 5:6-11). On our knees, we pray like Jehoshaphat; and we confess with Paul – “We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; …. (2 Corinthians 4:8-9).”
