Pivotal, by Senior Pastor Fred Garcia
February 5, 2023
2023 is going to be a year of great importance and important moments.
2023 is going to be a year of key points/junctions. This is a year to pay close attention to the subtleties of where you are headed, to confirm the direction you are headed or make course corrections no matter how large or small they may be. WE ARE CALLED TO A LIFE OF OBEDIENCE.
James 1:22-25 (NASB) 22 But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror; 24 for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was. 25 But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man will be blessed in what he does.
Luke 6:46-49 46 "Why do you call Me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say? 47 "Everyone who comes to Me and hears My words and acts on them, I will show you whom he is like: 48 he is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid a foundation on the rock; and when a flood occurred, the torrent burst against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well built. 49 "But the one who has heard and has not acted accordingly, is like a man who built a house on the ground without any foundation; and the torrent burst against it and immediately it collapsed, and the ruin of that house was great."
