Chasing the Wind

"It was all so meaningless, like chasing the wind." From Ecclesiastes 2, Bishop Dale C. Bronner looks at King Solomon, a man who had everything and yet had nothing, and at the conclusion he reached late in life: fear God, keep His commandments, and live a surrendered life. Without submission to God, everything we do is in vain. Through Isaiah 55's warning and invitation to seek the Lord while He may be found, this message shows why waiting hardens the heart, why God would rather pardon than punish, the difference between worldly hope and biblical hope, and why whatever costs you your peace is too expensive. No matter how far you have walked away, the return trip is only one step. You'll learn: Why Solomon called a life of wealth and pleasure "chasing the wind" How the love of God and the fear of God work together in a surrendered life Why Isaiah 55:6-7 is both a warning and an invitation Why God wants your heart early, while it's still tender What wickedness, iniquity, and unrighteousness really mean, and what repentance (metanoia) is The difference between worldly hope and hope anchored in God How to guard your heart and protect the peace Jesus gives 📖 Scriptures referenced: Ecclesiastes 2:3-11 · Ecclesiastes 12:13 · Isaiah 55:6-7 · Ecclesiastes 12:1 · Psalm 42:11 · Romans 15:13 · Hebrews 6:19 · 2 Timothy 3:1-5 · Hebrews 10:25 · Isaiah 48:22 · John 14:27 · Isaiah 26:3 · Psalm 118:8 🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/vIUjQB08FJw 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages from Word of Faith. 📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for daily encouragement. #ChasingTheWind #WordOfFaith #SundayService #Sermon
