Standing on the Promises

Nov 9, 2025    Lamar Purcell

In this sermon, Bro. Lamar Purcell draws from the book of Joshua to encourage believers to trust in God's promises just as Joshua and the Israelites did when entering the Promised Land. Bro. Lamar emphasizes that while the church is not Israel, God has given His people equally reliable promises that can be trusted completely. Through Joshua's example of conquering Canaan despite overwhelming odds, the message illustrates that God's faithfulness never fails. The sermon connects Old Testament promises to New Testament realities, showing how Jesus' victory on the cross and resurrection guarantee our salvation and ultimate victory. God's promises are completely trustworthy—not one fails—and believers can confidently stand on these promises in their daily battles and struggles.
