Rev. Cyril A. Stevens – Sermon 0207AB recorded on August 13, 1980 teaching from Psalm 140:12 – God Comforts.

Pastor Cyril A. Stevens explores the profound reality that God provides comfort to those burdened by past mistakes, depression, and life’s hardships. He structures his teaching around several scriptural promises, emphasizing that the Creator maintains the cause of the afflicted and actively lifts up those who are bowed down by the weight of their own anxieties. Using vivid personal anecdotes—such as a treacherous mountain rescue and the revival of dying house plants—Stevens illustrates how divine grace serves as a guiding light in the darkness and a source of refreshment for the weary soul. Ultimately, the message serves to transition the believer’s perspective from self-centered despair to a hopeful reliance on God’s mercy, urging the congregation to cast away their fears and trust in a Father who redeems lost time and fights their battles.
