Experiencing God's Faithfulness: A New Beginning

Welcome to our new home! Today marks a significant milestone for our church as we gather in this beautiful new space that God has blessed us with. This sermon is a celebration of God's faithfulness and a reminder of His promises. Let's dive into the key points and lessons from today's message.


A Prayer of Gratitude

We began our service with a heartfelt prayer, thanking God for this new space. We acknowledged His generosity and asked for His presence to fill this place. Without Him, even the most beautiful space is meaningless. We prayed for this place to be a vessel of His peace, love, and joy, and for us to be able to share His love with those seeking Him.


Worship and Praise

Our worship was filled with songs that lifted our eyes to Jesus, the source of our help and hope. We sang about His unwavering love and faithfulness, even in the midst of darkness and challenges. The worship set the tone for the message, reminding us that our trust is in a God who never fails.


Reflections on God's Promises

Remembering God's Faithfulness

The sermon highlighted the journey of our church, especially the challenges we faced during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many churches closed, and we were uncertain about our future. But through prayer and faith, God provided for us. Moving into our previous space at Puck's Alley was a step of faith, and now, standing in this new space, we see the fulfillment of God's promises.


The Story of Abraham and Joshua

The message drew parallels between our journey and the stories of Abraham and Joshua. God promised Abraham descendants and land, even when it seemed impossible. Similarly, Joshua led the Israelites into the Promised Land, carrying stones from the Jordan River as a memorial of God's miraculous provision.


Building Memorials of Faith

Just as Joshua's stones served as a reminder of God's faithfulness, we are encouraged to remember and celebrate what God has done in our lives. These memorials help us and future generations to remember God's goodness and faithfulness.


Writing the Vision

Habakkuk's Instruction

The sermon referenced Habakkuk 2:2, where God instructs the prophet to write the vision and make it plain. This is a call for us to clearly articulate and remember the promises and visions God has given us.


Personal Testimonies

Pastor Zach and Pastor Danessa shared personal stories and symbols of God's promises in their lives, such as tattoos that serve as daily reminders of God's faithfulness and calling.

Making Your Mark

In a symbolic act, we were invited to write on the walls of our new space. This act represents our prayers, hopes, and the promises we are believing God for. Although these writings will eventually be painted over, they serve as a powerful reminder of our faith and God's faithfulness.


Questions for Reflection

1. What are the promises God has given you that you need to remember and celebrate?

2. Who is the "one" person God is calling you to reach out to in this season?

3. How can you create memorials in your life to remember God's faithfulness?


Conclusion

As we move forward in this new space, let's continue to trust in God's faithfulness. He has brought us this far, and He will continue to guide and provide for us. This week, take time to reflect on God's promises and make a tangible mark of your faith, whether it's writing a prayer, sharing your testimony, or reaching out to someone in need.

Challenge for the Week

This week, I challenge you to identify one promise or vision God has given you and write it down. Share it with someone you trust and pray over it together. Additionally, think of one person you can reach out to and share God's love with them. Let's be intentional in remembering God's faithfulness and extending His love to others.


Questions for Reflection

1. What specific promise or vision has God given you that you need to write down and remember?

2. Who is one person you can reach out to this week to share God's love?

3. How can you create a memorial in your life to celebrate and remember God's faithfulness?

May God bless you as you step out in faith and trust in His promises. Let's continue to celebrate His goodness and share His love with those around us.
