About this listen

In this message we explored how unmet expectations can steal our joy and create distance between us and God. When life doesn't unfold the way we hoped—when prayers seem unanswered, when timing doesn't align with our plans, when God's "how" differs from our expectations—disappointment can open doors to doubt, offense, and spiritual deception. We discovered that gratitude isn't just a response to blessing; it's a weapon against despair and a declaration of trust in God's faithfulness, even when we can't see the full picture. The enemy uses our disappointments to whisper lies about God's character, but thankfulness realigns our hearts with Heaven's perspective and closes the door to familiar and seducing spirits.

Due to an audio glitch the last 10 minutes of this message were unsalvageable.
