I Will Not Be Broken | Arion Bunch | Accelerate Church

Main message: The preacher teaches from Psalm 124 that when life’s trials threaten to break us, we can confidently say "I will not be broken" because God has been with us, rescues us, and is our ongoing help. True resilience comes from remembering God's past faithfulness, refusing to let present circumstances dictate the end of our story, and depending on the rescuer—Jesus.

Key points:

• Remember who stands with you: recall how God has preserved you in past dangers so gratitude and confidence grow.
• Refuse to let current circumstances have the final word: painful chapters are not necessarily the conclusion of your story.
• Dependence is the destination: move from remembering God’s help to actively relying on Him as your present help.
• Illustration: Louie Zampernini’s survival and imprisonment show hope beyond human strength; the bird/snare image shows humanity’s helplessness apart from rescue.
• The ultimate rescue is in Christ: the snare of sin is broken by Jesus’ death and resurrection, and an invitation to trust him is extended.

Scriptures mentioned: Psalm 124, Romans 10:9
