The Ownership Issue

Jun 4, 2017  •  Jonathan Stewart

 This sermon addresses the fundamental issue of recognizing God's ownership over our lives. Jonathan shares a personal testimony of struggling with business and life decisions, only to realize through the Holy Spirit that the core problem was an "ownership issue" - trying to maintain control over what rightfully belongs to God. Drawing from Hebrews 3:1-15, the message emphasizes that as believers, we belong to God as our Creator and Builder, and our primary responsibility is to be faithful rather than trying to control outcomes. The sermon warns against the gradual hardening of hearts that occurs when we turn away from God, even slightly, and calls for daily accountability within the body of Christ. The central message is that true rest and peace come only when we surrender to God's ownership and trust Him as firmly today as when we first believed.
