This sermon explores the fundamental choice between following God's will or our own desires through the contrasting lives of Abraham and Lot. Pastor Tim Johnson emphasizes that true satisfaction comes not from pursuing what we see and desire, but from trusting God with our hearts, lifestyle, and finances. The message challenges the cultural pursuit of temporary fulfillment through possessions, status, and self-directed choices, revealing that these lead to emptiness rather than contentment. Using the account of Abraham's faith-filled surrender and Lot's self-centered choices, the sermon demonstrates how trusting God's will produces eternal, generational blessings while following our own will results in temporary gains followed by loss and the need for rescue. The sermon culminates in a call to repentance and surrender, particularly in the areas of tithing and service, as expressions of recognizing God as the source of everything we have.
