Sermon notes
Attacked for Growing
Wednesday, January 7, 2026
Summary
When God causes us to grow beyond the expectations of others, our multiplication can sometimes create intimidation and provoke unexpected opposition. As seen in the story of Israel in Egypt, retaliation often arises not because of an attack, but simply because of progress. Believers must understand that experiencing resistance during a season of growth is often a reflection of God's expanding favor on their lives.Key Scriptures
