Summary
LIVE – FHM Morning Manna – February 22, 2025 is Bishop Frank Kendrick's teaching on recognizing the spiritual significance of the figurative arrows encountered in life. Beginning with Psalm 38:1–5, he describes arrows as instruments that may expose sin, bring correction, communicate warnings, or contribute to deliverance. He first examines Ahab's conduct, including the seizure of Naboth's vineyard and Ahab's attempt to escape death by disguising himself during battle. Kendrick interprets these events as evidence that wrongdoing carries consequences that cannot be avoided through deception. He then turns to 2 Kings 13:14–20, where Elisha instructs Joash to shoot an arrow and strike the ground. This account is used to emphasize spiritual determination and the importance of responding fully to divine instruction. A third major example comes from 1 Samuel 20:16–22, where Jonathan uses arrows to communicate a warning to David. Kendrick applies this narrative to believers' responsibility to offer protective guidance and truthful instruction to others. Throughout the message, he emphasizes repentance, prayer, discernment, and the importance of maintaining one's spiritual inheritance. The sermon concludes by returning to the imagery of arrows in the Psalms and Isaiah, encouraging believers to reject harmful influences, examine their lives, and remain faithful to Yahweh.
Core doctrine
Psalm 38:1–5 — Bishop Frank Kendrick teaches that believers must develop spiritual discernment to recognize the purpose of the figurative arrows that confront them throughout life. He interprets these arrows as instruments that may bring divine correction, expose wrongdoing, communicate warnings, provide protection, or accomplish deliverance. Through the account of Ahab, he emphasizes that wickedness and deception cannot ultimately escape divine judgment. Through Elisha's instructions to Joash, he teaches that believers must respond wholeheartedly to divine direction in order to pursue spiritual victory. Through Jonathan's warning to David, he demonstrates the responsibility of believers to provide instruction and protection to others. Kendrick further teaches that prayer, repentance, obedience, and faithfulness to Yahweh's promises are necessary for resisting temptation and preserving one's spiritual inheritance. The classification of life's difficulties as specific arrows of correction, judgment, protection, or deliverance is Kendrick's theological interpretation and application of the cited passages.
