ABOUT THIS SERMON

Coming out of times of uncertainty, it is time to recapture the vision that gives us the zeal to go forward and complete God’s work. Drawing from 1 Peter 2 and 1 Corinthians 3, this message explores how God is fashioning individual believers into clean, holy "living stones" designed to fit perfectly into His spiritual house.

This isn't about physical buildings or institutional tradition, but an urgent personal mandate to stir up the Holy Spirit, maintain spiritual cleanliness, and live by every word of God.

In this video, you will explore:

• The Calling of Living Stones: How God selects, shapes, and places us into His living spiritual temple.

• Recapturing the Vision: Why remembering God's overarching purpose restores our zeal to complete His work. • Keeping the Fire Burning: How to stir up the Holy Spirit and avoid letting spiritual lethargy creep in.

• Fit for His Presence: What it takes to remain spiritually clean, holy, and uncompromised before God.

• Building for Eternity: Why the daily choices we make prepare us to serve as kings and priests in the Kingdom of God.

"As pure living stones, let us dedicate ourselves to making our calling and election sure, remaining clean and fit for the presence of God."
