First Things First

Foundations
Written By NorthRock Church
 

God works in every moment—wins, wounds, and waiting. Our response? Live surrendered, walk in obedience, and align with His purpose daily, trusting He’s forming us for His glory.

 

Foundations: when God is first, everything else finds its place. This series helps us align our lives with God’s Word so our faith can stand firm when life tests what we’re built on.

When faith meets pressure, will you quiet down—or cry out louder? In Mark 10, Bartimaeus refused to be silenced. When rebuked, he shouted anyway. Real faith doesn’t wait for permission. It declares God’s promises boldly—even when fear, disappointment, or culture says be quiet.

In Mark 2, four friends refuse to give up when they can’t reach Jesus. They climb the roof and lower their friend down. This message reminds us that resistance isn’t rejection. Do what you can in faith—and trust God with what only He can do.

When life is interrupted, Jesus isn’t rushed or absent. This message explores how delays don’t mean distance, compassion isn’t canceled by urgency, and even bad news doesn’t get the final word—because nothing about this moment is random.
