You Were MEANT TO LOSE Some Battles! | Pastor Charles Myles There are battles in life that feel like defeats, but what if God meant for you to lose them? In this powerful teaching, Pastor Charles Myles breaks down Judges 19–20 and shows us that sometimes God allows losses, not to destroy us, but to develop us. Through the story of Israel's battle against Benjamin, we discover the painful truth that even when we're obedient, losses can still come. But if we keep trusting God and don't give up, victory is still promised. Whether you're walking through heartbreak, grief, failure, or confusion, this message will remind you: Don't quit before God's finish line! What feels like defeat may just be a setup for your breakthrough. Scripture Focus: Judges 19–20 Deuteronomy 8:2–3 Romans 8:28 1 John 1:9 Romans 10:9 Expanded Description: What if some of the battles you lost were never meant to be victories in the first place? In this transformative message, Pastor Charles unpacks a hard but healing truth: God sometimes ordains our losses to prepare us for greater victories. Drawing from the journeys of Moses, Gideon, and the Israelites, Pastor Charles teaches that not every failure is a punishment-some are divine appointments. These losses aren't there to break you but to build the courage, humility, and wisdom needed for your calling. God doesn't waste anything-not even your pain. He allows certain battles to slip from our hands so that we stop fighting in our own strength and start walking in His purpose. You'll learn how God uses failure to reveal identity, strip pride, and shape warriors of faith who are equipped to stand in their next season of purpose. If you've ever asked, "Why did I have to go through that?"-this sermon is your answer. Key Themes: Recognizing purpose in your past defeats How identity is revealed through adversity Why God doesn't always remove the fight but walks you through it How to stop running from losses and start learning from them Watch this message and be reminded: God hasn't forgotten you. He's preparing you. 00:00:00 - 00:00:43 Coming Up: There Is Purpose in Losing 00:00:44 - 00:01:22 Welcome & Mission of Harvest Village Ministries 00:01:23 - 00:03:00 Some Battles You're Not Meant to Win 00:03:01 - 00:05:47 The Woman with the Issue of Blood: What If She Gave Up? 00:05:48 - 00:09:16 Why God Allows Losses (Deuteronomy 8 Insight) 00:09:17 - 00:11:03 Strength Through Struggle and the Wilderness 00:11:04 - 00:16:00 Judges 19 Setup: The Depth of Israel's Sin 00:16:01 - 00:21:10 The Horror of Gibeah and Israel's Grief 00:21:11 - 00:22:33 The Call to War: Israel vs. Benjamin 00:22:34 - 00:25:29 The First Loss: 22,000 Men Fall 00:25:30 - 00:30:25 Obeying God, But Still Losing 00:30:26 - 00:36:03 The Second Loss: 18,000 More Fall 00:36:04 - 00:37:20 They Fast, Pray, and Refuse to Quit 00:37:21 - 00:38:28 The Lesson of The Lord's Finish Line 00:38:29 - 00:40:08 God Declares His Finish Line 00:40:09 - 00:41:03 Victory in the Third Battle 00:41:04 - 00:43:43 Above the Clouds: The Sun Is Always Shining 00:43:44 - 00:45:18 Closing Prayer: Stay Until God's Finish Line 00:45:19 - 00:46:48 Invitation to Know Jesus
