In this powerful sermon titled Turning Discouragement into Strength, Apostle Junie Kelley dives deep into the emotional and spiritual battle of feeling abandoned or disheartened. Drawing from Job 23:1-4; 8 (CEV), the question "God, where are you?" echoes a familiar cry of those struggling through tough times. Discouragement, as highlighted in Deuteronomy 29:29 (AMP & CEV), is the opposite of courage, draining our motivation to press forward. But as John 10:10 (AMP) reminds us, life in Christ is meant to be full, and 2 Corinthians 4:17 (CEV) points to the temporary nature of our trials. The sermon emphasizes the harmful effects of prolonged discouragement, warning how it leads to bitterness and exhaustion. But the message doesn't stop there—it teaches how to find strength in moments of despair, citing Isaiah 40:27-31 (MSG) and encouraging reflection and pause with Selah. Finally, Psalm 3:3-4 (ESV) offers reassurance, reminding us that God is our shield, our source of glory, and the One who lifts our heads.
