Favor Isn't Always Comfortable | How Surrender Unlocks God's Purpose

What if God's favor doesn't always feel comfortable? In this message, Pastor Evan shares how God's favor often leads us into unfamiliar and challenging places before His purpose is fulfilled. Looking at the story of Mary in Luke 1, we learn that fear will always try to fight what God is speaking, but surrender is what unlocks His plan for our lives. Be encouraged to trust God's promises, overcome fear through faith, and say yes to whatever He is calling you into, knowing that He is with you every step of the way.
