Jan 25, 2026    Rev. Dr. Rodney T. Morton

Title: Shifting Time

Subtitle: When Faith Moves from Questioning God to Trusting Him

Text: Habakkuk 2:1–4

Speaker: Dr. Rodney T. Morton, Senior Pastor


Big Idea / Thesis

Faith matures when trust replaces interrogation and time shifts not on the calendar, but in the soul.


Sermon Overview

Shifting Time examines the moment when faith moves beyond demanding answers and chooses disciplined trust in God’s timing. Habakkuk’s journey in chapter 2 marks a spiritual turning point—where waiting becomes an act of faith, not frustration. God’s delay is revealed not as absence, but as intentional development. The righteous survive not by explanations, but by faith.


Main Sermon Movements

I. From Questioning to Watching

Text: Habakkuk 2:1

II. From Confusion to Clarity

Text: Habakkuk 2:2–3

III. From Demands to Dependence

Text: Habakkuk 2:4


Key Takeaway

God may delay revelation, but He never delays purpose.

The righteous do not live by explanations—they live by faith.
