- Sermon Overview
Scripture Passage: Hebrews 11:17-19
Throughout life, we will experience two kinds of tests: those that cause us to stumble, and those that cause us to stand. The devil will tempt us to do evil, while God tests us to do good and make our faith strong and pure.
But God may ask us to do something that surprises us, and our response will reveal our true faith. In Hebrews 11, we are reminded of when Abraham’s faith was tested.
“By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, of whom it was said, ‘In Isaac your seed shall be called,’ concluding that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead, from which he also received him in a figurative sense” (Hebrews 11:17-19).
When we face trials and temptations, there are three questions we should ask ourselves to pass the test of our faith.
Can I trust God with the possessions He has given to me?
God tested Abraham’s faith by asking him to give back his only beloved son, Isaac. God wanted to know if Abraham loved Him more than he loved Isaac. God does not want a place in our lives; He desires, deserves, and demands preeminence in our lives. We need to consider if there is anything we would not give back to God if He asked for it.
Can I trust God with the purpose He has for me?
Adrian Rogers says, “Faith is not primarily believing God in spite of the evidence; it is obeying God in spite of the consequences, not having to know why.” Obedience is the proof of our trust in God. We must be informed, intentional and impassioned about seeking the will of God for our lives.
Can I trust God with the promises He has made to me?
God had already miraculously fulfilled His promises to Abraham before. Though he did not know how He’d do it, Abraham knew God would keep His promises again; and He did. God provided a ram to take Isaac’s place on the altar and gave Abraham back his son.
Adrian Rogers says, “We don’t live by explanation; we live by promises.”
Apply it to your life
Is your faith being tested right now? Remember: the trials that come from God are tailor-made. He knows where you are and He knows your circumstances. Have faith in Him.

Pastor Adrian Rogers was my pastor when I first believed. Great to see and hear him speak through modern technology.
Detroit Michigan 💜 U Pastor Rodgers 😊
Adrian Rogers: what a wonderful Bible preacher!! So happy I found your videos! I watch your videos when I need to hear from God. I know you are in Heaven praising and know our Lord! I wish more and more people could hear these sermons to change their lives for the better. Thank you God, for allowing us to have this true pastor while he lived.
God is fulfilling this message today
This woman was the only one recorded who believed when He said He would be crucified.
She acted on her faith by pouring out all she had, her most precious possession.
I have come to love his teachings, simple, clear and direct on point. Pointing directly to who you are and what you should be ❤
Good morning everyone. Have a good one. ✝️
Thankful for Adrian Rogers .
Thank you, thank you for uploading Pastor Rogers’ teachings. I can’t say enough about his teachings. To the point, to the senses, to the heart words. I listen every day for a day full of God’s touching spirit for strength and direction in a world that will soon have a dear lesson to learn. We grow in strength by hearing the word of God. Well done good and faithful servant. See you later Pastor. ♥️
Amen 🙏 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Good morning
God bless you all 🙏🏻
“She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying.”
Adrian preaching is what brought me to getting baptized some yrs ago, and raised a passion in me, only to be a proven failure consistently, turns out my faith is zero.
Faith as small as a mustard seed can move mountains. It may seem like you don't have faith but you do. God knew you before the foundations of the world
Prayers, blessings and grace to my fellow Brothers and Sisters in Christ.😇🙏🏼😇

“And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious; and she brake the box, and poured it on his head.”
💪🏾💒🦅
Amen. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to everyone 🙏🙏🙏
Amen Amen
This woman alone believed Jesus was the Messiah the Anointed One
And by divine revelation came and anointed Him.
She wasn't the only one who believed Jesus is the Messiah. For example, John 10.42, Matt 16.16, John 4.41 list others who believed in Jesus
@@bluepassby3902
She was the only one who believed He was the Messiah who was going to die like He said. Peter for example rebuked Him
" And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
And he spake that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him."
Mark 8:31-32
What is my/your ALABASTER BOX
Please turn up the volume on this video!!!!!! can barely hear it and I have my phone in a pot just to increase the accoustiks
The audio was too low
Good sermon for the most part except I've never heard a preacher so full of himself. Very sad. And also ending the sermon with a "sinners prayer" for salvation which is found nowhere in the scripture. God said repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins. Adrian says to say this prayer. Don't follow Adrian, follow the word of God.
I must disagree 100% It is far easier to give up the good things, rather the things which corrupt is. For our nature is to SIN. If giving up SIN, lying, stealing, Pride, ETC were so easy, we would all be holy and without blame.
He’s saying when you’re a believer it’s easy to give up lying and stealing but when he ask you to give up good things that’s a true test. Lying and stealing are easy to let go when you’re a slave of Jesus Christ
