In this stirring message, Dr. Michael Youssef declares the faithfulness of the God who keeps His promises—no matter how long the delay. From Genesis 21, the long-awaited birth of Isaac proves that God is never late, and that nothing is impossible for Him. But Isaac’s birth was more than a personal victory for Abraham and Sarah—it pointed forward to the miraculous birth of Jesus Christ and even to our own spiritual rebirth. Just as Isaac was born by God’s power alone, so too we must be born again by the Holy Spirit. This episode calls every listener to repentance, to faith in Christ alone, and to rejoice in the unshakable joy that comes from trusting the Word of the Living God.

In this powerful message, Dr. Michael Youssef reveals the astonishing truth that Abraham was called a “friend of God”—not because he was flawless, but because he trusted God completely. Based on Genesis 18, Dr. Youssef shows how faith opens the door to intimate friendship with the Lord, marked by worship, obedience, intercession, and the courage to act. God confided in Abraham and answered his bold prayers for his rebellious family, reminding us that the Lord hears when His people pray. As our nation spirals in sin, God seeks faithful believers who will not settle for passivity but will stand in the gap. Friendship with God demands repentance, loyalty, and a life centered on Christ—no compromise.

In this urgent message, Dr. Michael Youssef addresses the silence of God—not as absence, but as purposeful preparation. After Abraham's disobedience, God waited thirteen years before speaking again—thirteen years of silence that revealed the depth of God's mercy, testing, and precision. Through Genesis 17, Dr. Youssef reminds us that El Shaddai, the God of power and might, never abandons His covenant promises. But He calls us to respond with immediate obedience, not passive comfort. God does not accept substitutes or shortcuts—He demands full trust. Believers must not settle for second-best or live for self. This is a call to reject compromise, repent of complacency, and live boldly for Christ, trusting His perfect timing and plan.
