In today's message, we explored the profound truth that many of us have been deceived for so long that we have not become who we were truly created to be. This deception has kept us from realizing our full potential in Christ. When we dedicate our lives fully to Jesus, placing everything we are on the altar, we become ready to transform the culture around us in His name. God often orchestrates His plans through events that may seem negative or ugly at the moment, but these are part of a greater design that will ultimately benefit us in ways we cannot yet see.
Jesus calls us to follow Him, promising to lead us from darkness into light. His sacrifice—His death and resurrection—was for each of us, regardless of our background, race, or social status. He assures us that anyone who comes to Him will not be rejected. This is a powerful reminder of the inclusivity and unconditional love of Christ, who invites everyone to partake in the light and life He offers.
