When John the Baptist found himself in prison, the bold prophet who once proclaimed Christ began to wrestle with a difficult question: “Are you the one who is to come?” In Matthew 11:2–11, Jesus answers doubt not with rebuke, but with Scripture, fulfilled prophecy, and gracious assurance. This message reminds us that faith can be tested by suffering, yet Christ remains faithful to His people and honors those who trust Him.
Spiritual Stability in Times of Trial
True spiritual stability doesn’t come from peaceful circumstances but from knowing and trusting the God who governs every circumstance. Through the examples of Paul, Silas, and Job, we see that steadfast faith is rooted in the knowledge of God’s sovereignty and goodness. Even in suffering, believers can rest in the truth that “all things work together for good” for those who love Him.
