In this powerful message from Mark 9, E. Dewey Smith challenges us to ask a deeper question: Can you handle higher? We all pray for higher opportunities, greater influence, increased finances, better careers, and new levels in life. But elevation comes with responsibility. This message reminds us that going higher isn’t always about addition. Sometimes God takes us higher through subtraction—removing the things we have depended on so we can see Him more clearly, hear Him more clearly, and depend on Him more deeply. 📖 Scripture: Mark 9:2–8
