Episode Details

In this sobering message, Dr. Michael Youssef warns of the danger of impatience with God’s promises. Abraham and Sarah—once full of faith—abandon trust and attempt to fulfill God’s plan in their own way. The result is generational pain that still affects the world today. Drawing from Genesis 16, Dr. Youssef boldly confronts the consequences of ignoring God’s Word and following cultural norms instead of Biblical truth. Yet even in failure, God’s mercy shines. He meets Hagar, the abandoned servant, and reveals Himself as the God who sees and hears. This episode is a call to repentance, to remain in the place of obedience, and to trust the Living God—even when His answer seems delayed.  If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone.  🙏 Pastoral Care & Prayer Teams Our trained prayer partners and pastoral care team are available to pray with you and offer Biblical support. https://ltw.org/care 💬 Receive personal answers to your faith questions—anytime, day or night—at: https://myfaithassistant.com If you’ve been blessed by this podcast, please consider a tax-deductible donation to help extend this ministry—so another person can be encouraged, prayed for, and pointed to Christ. ❤️ Support Leading The Way: https://www.ltw.org/donate
