It’s About To Get Better

Dr Dharius Daniels

Thursday, May 9, 2024

Summary

In this message from the Book of Hebrews, Dr. Dharius Daniels teaches that 'better' for the believer is not merely a possibility, but a divine promise from God. True spiritual progress requires detaching from inferior, outdated ways of practicing faith to fully embrace the superior New Covenant in Jesus. By actively developing our faith through examples like Enoch, Noah, and Abraham, believers can step into prophetic preparation, become kingdom exceptions, and walk in step-by-step obedience even with limited information.

The Superiority of the New CovenantThe Law of DetachmentFaith and Spiritual GrowthProphetic PreparationLiving as an ExceptionStep-by-Step Obedience

Pastor's Points

1.Faith Makes You the Exception (Enoch)
2.Faith Causes You to Engage in Prophetic Preparation (Noah)
3.Faith Helps You Take Incremental Steps Based on Limited Information (Abraham)

Key Points

1.Better for the believer is not just a possibility, but a covenant promise rooted in Jesus' offer of abundant life (John 10:10).
2.God gives an appetite that matches your divine assignment, meaning your pursuit of God may require moving past people who do not share your spiritual hunger.
3.The Law of Detachment teaches that your ability to detach from something old directly affects your spiritual capacity to experience something new.
4.Spiritual settling often happens unconsciously when we fail to realize that higher levels of spiritual maturity exist beyond our current understanding.
5.God deposits a measure of saving faith in everyone, but it is our responsibility to develop that faith into specific and courageous faith.
6.Like Enoch, developing faith enables believers to become spiritual exceptions whose outcomes are not bound by cultural trends or natural statistics.
7.When God allows you to go into a trial or fire, it is often because He has already ordained to enter the situation with you and burn away what has you bound.
8.Obedience is not a favor we perform for God, but a loving boundary and instruction provided by a Heavenly Father for our own good and protection.
9.Like Noah, genuine faith leads to prophetic preparation—building an ark through spiritual discipline before any storm physically appears.
10.Like Abraham, faith empowers us to make decisions step-by-step based on God's word rather than demanding full visibility or comfortable control.

Sermon Moments

“Better for the believer is not just a possibility, better is a promise.”

“God gives you an appetite that matches your assignment... what is amazing for them is intolerable and unacceptable for you.”

“Your ability to detach from something old affects your ability to experience something new.”

“Spiritual settling is the only kind of settling that's unconscious; you can't miss a level you don't know exists.”

“When God doesn't keep you out of the fire, it's because He's coming in with you.”

“We've got to reframe the way we see obedience and shift from seeing obedience as something I do for God to something I do for me.”

“If you really believe it's going to rain, you will be building an ark before there's a cloud in the sky.”

“God gives you enough information for you to obey, not enough information to make you comfortable.”

This Week

Identify outdated legalistic habits or former ways of practicing faith and detach from them to walk in the freedom of the New Covenant.
Shift your daily perspective on obedience from viewing it as a burden or favor to God to recognizing it as a divine benefit for your own good.
Engage in prophetic preparation by obeying promptings from the Holy Spirit to build discipline and structure before trials or blessings arrive.
Surrender the need to be understood by others when God calls you to take steps of faith that do not make sense to those around you.
Take the next clear step of obedience God has revealed to you today, even if you lack full visibility of the final destination.
Ask God to release and strengthen the gift of faith within you so you can believe Him for extraordinary outcomes in your life.
Refuse to settle spiritually by actively seeking deeper levels of prayer, biblical revelation, and intimacy with God.

Remember This

Better is not just a possibility for the believer—it is a promise that requires us to detach from the old, develop our faith, and obey God step-by-step.

A Challenge for You

Father, I pray for the release and impartation of the spiritual gift of faith over Your people—giving them the unique capacity to believe You for extraordinary things in this season.
