Will of God – The Will That Changes the World

The Will That Changes the World

Have you ever noticed how easy it is for the church to get divided — by opinions, by offenses, even by algorithms? Yet Jesus prayed in John 17 that we would be one so the world would believe. In this week’s message, The Will That Changes the World, we explore God’s Missional Will — a will that doesn’t stop with us but flows through us to others. We’ll look at the Great Co-Mission, the story of Paul and Barnabas, and what it really means to live as Kingdom citizens. Along the way, we’ll confront the pull of isolation, division, and consumer Christianity, and discover how prayer, the Holy Spirit, and Spirit-filled love equip us to shine like stars in the universe as we hold out the word of life.

John 17, Matthew 28:18–20

  4. Read Philippians 2:12–16
    Paul says we are to “shine like stars in the universe as we hold out the word of life.” How do the various “Wills” of God – Moral, Sovereign, and Personal, along with Missional – what does it look like in practical terms to live as a Kingdom citizens walking out the Will of God in the world?
  5. Think about the “one person, one place, or one passion” challenge. Who or what comes to mind for you this week? How can your group pray for you to step into God’s Missional Will in that area?
