Called but Hiding | Pastor David Grobler | Unite180 Church

Faith is made real when life happens, and we allow God to dictate our response.

"If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me."

In "Called but Hiding," this message unpacks the reality of being chosen by God while navigating life’s contradictions. Whether it’s David in the cave, Paul in prison, or Shadrach in the fire, God uses every trial to mould us into vessels for His glory.

Key Scriptures:
Matthew 16, verses 24-26 (Take up your cross and follow me)
Romans 12, verse 1 (Offer your bodies as a living sacrifice)
Psalm 23, verse 4 (Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death)
Isaiah 43, verses 1-2 (When you pass through the waters, I will be with you)
Philippians 1, verse 6 (He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion)
2 Corinthians 4, verse 17 (Our light and momentary troubles achieve eternal glory)
