-
- Kristendom
In this compelling sermon, Pastor Brennan Witt of Toronto City Church passionately welcomes visitors and regular attendees, expressing his admiration for their commitment to the recent 21-day prayer and fasting program, Altered 2024. He introduces 2024 as "The Year to Build," encouraging the congregation to establish, assemble, and seek increase in their lives, driven by long-lasting foundations and rejecting complacency.
We further delve into the importance of a robust spiritual life rooted in Jesus' teachings and the necessity of resisting rushing into major life decisions, advocating adherence to God's guidance. The sermon moves on to the vital role we all need to play in strengthening, establishing, and collaborating to fortify our faith and church in the year 2024.
A comprehensive look at Matthew 7: 24-27 effectively illustrates the strength of a house built on a rock, signifying the importance of hearing and doing the Word of God. The year 2024 is presented as a significant phase where building involves spiritual warfare and construction, which leads us to highlight our future spiritual grounding via urban development symbolism.
Through this episode's narrative, focus shifts to faith in Jesus Christ as our ultimate foundation. Both the great white throne of judgment and the judgment seat of Christ are symbolized as places before God where everyone will stand. Our earthly actions will be revealed and evaluated in the afterlife, emphasizing the significance of pursuing a Christ-like life full of conscious efforts, selflessness, sacrifices, and forgiveness.
Moreover, the sermon highlights the importance of active participation in nurturing our spiritual growth as well as guiding others in their journey. It calls for our readiness to build our lives on the rock of faith, reflect on the cost of our faith and brace for the eternal rewards that it promises. The episode concludes by appealing to listeners to embrace 2024 as the year to build personally, collectively, and eternally.
The episode equips the audience to accept the challenges and answer the call to serve, be involved, and leave a lasting, positive impact on the world. It draws focus to the many exciting plans that God has for the congregation in 2024 and challenges them to pray for opportunities to bring at least one person to God. It invites all to build from the altar, living each day fully in God's presence and working towards the expansion of His kingdom. Are you ready to make 2024 the remarkable 'Year to Build'?
