Discerning A New Move

In the last decade, much helpful emphasis has been placed by pastors, worship leaders and teachers on the need for Christians to rest in their identity in Jesus. While this is a healthy and powerful truth to communicate, the pendulum may have swung a bit too far for some. Resting does not equal apathy. To be at peace with your identity as God’s child should never dull your sense of missional urgency. Neglecting the intense call of discipleship is never to be confused with abiding at His feet. God remains intensely committed to finishing what He began. He is not finished, and He has not lost His creativity in our day. Every generation of Christians must remain aware that God initiates new methods, new trajectories, new emphases…and new moves. Yesterday’s Yes from us will not fit today’s offer from God to us. This message calls us to consider that we are all in the midst of a season of a new move being sent to us from Heaven’s throne.
