PROTECT THE PROMISE

Forward City Church

About this episode

What are you willing to trade for temporary relief?

In Genesis 25, Esau exchanged his birthright for a bowl of stew. What looked like a simple moment of hunger became a costly decision that reminds us: you’re worth more than temporary pleasure.

In “Protect the Promise,” we’re challenged to guard our purity, resist compromise, and recognize that holiness isn’t God keeping something from us—it’s God keeping us for something.

Don’t let exhaustion, loneliness, lust, or temporary pleasure convince you to sacrifice what God has placed inside of you.

Don’t give up your promise for S.T.E.W. — Short Term Escape from Weariness.

📖 Genesis 25:23–34

📖 1 Corinthians 6:18–20

📖 Romans 12:1

📖 Romans 6:13–16

Protect your purity. Protect your purpose. Protect the promise.
