Taming the Heart: Learning to Trust God Over Ourselves

Pastor Daniel Medders begins by sharing a story from a mission trip to Albania to illustrate how difficult it can be to discern who or what to trust. This leads into a broader message challenging the modern advice to "follow your heart," arguing instead that the heart is deceitful—a view supported by Scripture, particularly Jeremiah 17. Pastor Daniel emphasizes that relying on personal desires often leads us away from God's will, using biblical examples like David, Jonah, and even Jesus to highlight the tension between human wants and divine purpose. He urges believers to guard their hearts, not follow them, and to seek God's guidance over self-interest. The sermon concludes with a prayer asking God to replace personal desires with His will, reminding listeners that discernment comes through time spent with God and a willingness to surrender.
