This sermon encourages believers to actively participate in God's kingdom work by heeding His call, harnessing their purpose, and handling divine assignments with faith and obedience.
Good morning, beloved family in Christ. I greet you with the peace and love of our Lord, Jesus Christ. There is a warmth in this gathering, a warmth that radiates from the shared faith and fellowship we have in our Savior. Today, we gather under the banner of His love, not as mere spectators, but as active participants in the grand narrative of redemption and grace that He has so lovingly written for each one of us.
