God Doesn’t Give up on His Children Who Fall | David Wilkerson
Pastor David Wilkerson addresses Christians who have fallen into sin or struggle with ongoing wounds and discouragement. He emphasizes that God never abandons his children, even when they fail, and that Satan's greatest lie is convincing believers they cannot return to God or that they're beyond redemption.
Main Ideas
• God never gives up on fallen believers - No matter how low someone has sunk or what they've done, God does not turn his children over to Satan's power
• Satan's strategy is deception, not ownership - The devil knows he cannot truly possess God's children, so he uses lies to keep them in bondage and tries to destroy them before they return
• Consequences exist but don't disqualify restoration - Using David's example from Psalm 38, Wilkerson shows that sin has painful consequences, but these don't prevent God's forgiveness and healing
• The lie that keeps people bound - Satan's primary weapon is convincing fallen Christians that God is angry with them and doesn't want them back
• Return requires taking responsibility - True restoration comes through godly sorrow, confessing sin without blaming others, and stepping out in faith rather than remaining in victim mentality
