"You can't outdo, The Doer" With Pastor Bernie Strickling
In a powerful message that resonates with both seasoned believers and newcomers alike, Pastor Strickling delivers a compelling reminder that we can never "outdo the doer" - our almighty God. Drawing from Mary's song in Luke 1:49, he masterfully weaves together three transformative points: God's works are matchless, His giving exceeds ours, and His faithfulness never fails. Through vivid analogies of pottery being reformed, olives being pressed, and the children of Israel's continuous journey, Pastor Strickling illustrates how our attempts to match God's power and provision often leave us humbled yet transformed. He challenges the congregation to stop trying to outdo God and instead focus on worship, trust, and pointing others to the One who "does all things well." The message particularly connects with those struggling to surrender control, encouraging them to find peace in God's perfect timing and provision. The urgent call to action rings clear: rather than attempting to match God's power, we must learn to rest in His presence, trust His process, and remain faithful in our journey, understanding that even our best efforts are merely a response to His infinite grace.
