Bring Your Broken - 2 Corinthians 12:9 – Church 3.0 - Brent Phillips – Encounter Houston

Jesus is not scared of your sin, He is not overwhelmed by your mistakes, He is not embarrassed of your shame and He is not limited by your limitations.

2 Corinthians 12:9 “Each time he said, My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me."

Jesus came to conquer sin, no matter what form it is in. He is saying come to Him and bring your broken, bring your shame, and bring your pain. It is in our brokenness and shame that we discover the power of Jesus Christ.

His grace is all that you need. Your sin isn’t more powerful than the blood of Christ. Stop being hard on yourself and start giving Christ credit for what He did on the cross for you!

Because of Christ you are enough!

With Jesus you have a purpose. God wants to do something amazing in you and through you. He isn’t asking you to figure out how to do it. He already knows what to do. He isn’t looking for your ability; He is looking for your availability. It is your “yes” that He wants.

Matthew 22:14 For many are called, but few are chosen.

The ones that show up and accept the call are the ones that have been chosen.

You must be willing to show up so that He can equip and enable you; in order to use you. It is in your following and doing that you begin to learn and become transformed. Don’t hide your brokenness, bring it to Him. His grace is enough and He will give you all the strength that you need
