The Power in Your Yes

This powerful message explores the transformative potential of saying 'yes' to God, drawing from the story of Peter in Luke chapter 5. We discover that God doesn't call us because we have everything figured out or possess extraordinary abilities—He calls us despite our limitations and failures. The sermon reminds us that God is not surprised by our circumstances or overwhelmed by our tomorrows; He already knows the beginning from the end and has designed us for such a time as this. What's remarkable is that while we can do nothing without Him, He chooses to do nothing without us, inviting us into partnership with the Creator of the universe. The message challenges us to move beyond shallow, seasonal, or selfish 'yeses' to embrace a wholehearted commitment that says, 'I will do whatever You've called me to do, no matter the cost.' Through examples of biblical figures like Elisha, who burned his fields and oxen to follow God's call, we see that saying yes creates a ripple effect that extends far beyond our individual lives, blessing generations to come. The central truth is this: as long as we have a yes in our spirit, God can still use us, no matter how many times we've failed or fallen short.
