Mosaic Church - At Walt Disney World

To belong to King Jesus is to participate in His mission with Him. The mission of Jesus, through the church He is building, is to bring His kingdom and push back the gates of darkness until the territories of darkness are no more. As the commissioned church, it is necessary for us to gather up and brief ourselves on the vision and values through which we will accomplish our mission. “We” is a series for us as Mosaic Church to lay out our values; our identity and code of conduct by which we will realize what Jesus has called us to do.

Jesus, the embodiment of true greatness, is worth our heart’s full attention because He is the suffering servant who condescended from glory to dwell among us and bear the death that we deserved for our sin. Having fully paid our debt with His blood, He is now risen and reigns over all things forever.

Followers of Jesus must pay much closer attention to the reliable word of Christ delivered to us through the apostles. Our good Father provides this loving warning to keep us from drifting into things most dangerous for our soul. We pay attention and keep from drifting by having the word of God richly dwell in us, gather regularly with community, and daily walk by the Spirit.

Jesus is greater than all messengers before Him, including angels. In contrast to the angels, Jesus is the heir of David, God incarnate, and Messiah, who is to be worshipped by all creation. When we see Him for who He truly is, we turn from worshipping God’s created gifts to worshiping the infinitely greater one, the only one worthy, Jesus Christ.

Is it truly worth it to follow Jesus even in the dangers and heaviness of life? When we realize that Jesus is completely sufficient for us because of His supreme authority over everything, we have a solid foundation to remain faithful. As those who are always sustained in the safety of the God-man, Jesus Christ, through His authoritative Word, we will always have reason to look at Him and declare, “That’s my King!”

An anonymous author with an incredible handle of the totality of Scripture and a direct relationship with Jesus’ first followers writes to Jewish Christians experiencing difficult persecution for their faith. The author begins to hold up Jesus as worthy of our perseverance because He is greater than the angels and Torah, Moses and the promised land, the priests and Melchizedek, the sacrifices, and the old covenant. Jesus is worth our all because He is greater than all!

Our God is on the move and this year as a church we’re going to intentionally join Him in His redemptive work in the world. We’ll do this by staying close to Him, offering Him our weakness, trusting that His Spirit will equip us through church leadership to be faithful witnesses of the power of the gospel. Our first step together is to simply come before God daily and say, “I’m here. What can I do?”

In this final message of our advent series we celebrate the arrival of Jesus as we consider how God calls us to respond to His presence in our lives.

In this third week of Advent, we look at how God reveals Himself to be faithful and true by using even the most unlikely of people to lead to the eventual birth of Jesus.

In this second week of Advent, we discover the patriarchs of Jesus’ family line give us a window into a God who reveals Himself to be faithful and true, glorified even through human weakness.
