Rich emphasizes that true satisfaction stems not from earthly possessions but from a relationship with Christ. Pastor highlights three key aspects: God's unwavering support of the righteous, God's providential care over believers' lives, and the eternal inheritance awaiting believers. He connects these concepts to New Testament teachings, asserting that a believers' value and worth are found in Christ, not worldly measures. Finally, he encourages listeners to find satisfaction in God's approval rather than societal standards.2025-01-2713 minDelight in GraceSufficient Grace, Part 3In 2 Cor. 12:7-13, Paul begs God to remove the “thorn” in his flesh, but God chooses to let it remain, encouraging Paul that God’s own grace will be enough.
