This sermon explores the dangers of seeking spiritual shortcuts outside of God’s ordained ways. Drawing from the contrast between King Saul and David, the message highlights the importance of patience, divine calling, and discernment in the prophetic ministry. While Saul turned to a medium in desperation, David sought God’s guidance through a relationship with the Lord, emphasizing that true prophecy cannot be separated from the Holy Spirit. As deception spreads in the modern church through commercialized prophecy and false spiritual encounters, this sermon calls believers to stand for truth, trust in God’s timing, and seek the genuine move of the Holy Spirit. God is raising up a generation that will reject manipulation and walk in the purity of His presence. The question is—will you wait on the Lord or take matters into your own hands?
