Many of us have a small conception of God. But, as Moses discovered at the burning bush, the Lord is infinitely greater than our comprehension will allow. In this message from Exodus 4, Pastor Lutzer examines four characteristics that mark those who truly know God. But does God's sovereignty extend even to those who resist knowing Him?

God is the God of new beginnings. The first Passover not only delivered God’s people from judgment but also foreshadowed our own salvation. In this message, Pastor Lutzer explains how the Passover lamb’s five-step process foreshadows Jesus—the perfect Lamb of God. No matter our past, the blood applied makes all the difference.
God hates idolatry. For every single believer, God will fight to remove the idols from our hearts, our lives, our homes, and our experience. In this message, Pastor Lutzer reveals three ways to cultivate a responsive heart to God, unlike Pharaoh’s stubborn defiance. How does God war with us against the idols of our hearts?
Every time we deliberately sin, we’re breaking the first commandment. “Thou shalt have no other gods before Me. ” In this message from Exodus 7, Pastor Lutzer begins to walk us through the ten plagues, where God confronted the false gods of Egypt. Even today, God is still at war with the idols of our hearts.
Some people assume God can be manipulated or that He is far beyond our reach. But actually, all of our experiences are designed by God to nudge us closer to Him. In this message, Pastor Lutzer describes the life of faith for Moses and for Joni Eareckson Tada. If all we do in life is to know and worship God, we will have delighted His heart.
We may find a host of reasons or excuses to say “no” to God’s leading. But God will firmly and graciously overcome our objections—like He did for Moses. In this message, Pastor Lutzer guides us through our own inadequacy or comparison. God may be taking us out of our sense of security, and into a journey of dependence upon Him.
