Why does God correct the people He loves?
In this powerful Wayman Wednesday message, Pastor Wayman Mitchell opens Hebrews 12 to reveal why correction is not rejection—it is proof of God’s love and a process that shapes us into people He can use.
From the struggle of human will and rebellion to the peaceable fruit of righteousness, this sermon challenges us to stop resisting God’s authority and receive the character-building work He wants to do in us.
Scriptures referenced include Hebrews 12, Isaiah 14, Acts 9, Galatians 3, 2 Peter 1, and 2 Timothy 2.
