Charles Stanley - When Faith Gives Way to Fear

Even when we’re led astray by fears and temptations, God knows how to get us back on track. Dr. Stanley examines a time when Abraham lost sight of God’s promise and took things into his own hands. From this story, we can learn why trusting God is always the best option.

Sometimes we believe that God is leading us in a certain direction, but as we continue down that path, we become discouraged and uncertain because things aren’t working out as we expected.

Maybe that route isn’t as easy as we thought it would be, or it isn’t leading where we want to go. Therefore, we decide on our own to make a course correction, thinking that we have obviously gone the wrong way. Yet once we start down the new path, we soon discover that we’ve made a terrible mistake. One of the reasons we change routes and disobey God is because our faith gives way to fear.
