Wu Yuzhuang: The Shepherd In My Valley

City Harvest Church Weekend Sermons

Life is filled with success and failure, mountain-top and valley-low experiences. Preaching out of Psalm 23:4-5, Pastor Wu Yuzhuang delivers this encouraging message on walking through difficult times. Valleys may be inevitable and unpredictable, but they are temporary and they serve a purpose: we only build faith in the valleys of life, we are closest to God when we are in our deepest valleys. There are 4 things a believer needs to do when he finds himself in the valley: 1) Refuse to be afraid, because when God is for you, no one can be against you. 2) Refuse to be discouraged; discouragement is a choice. 3) Seek God’s presence, not the absence of evil. 4) Find the footprints of Jesus; keep walking through the valley till you reach the other side. Without going through the valley, we will never receive the anointing. As God has promised, He will transform our valley of trouble into a gateway of hope (Hos 2:15).
