In today's sermon, Bishop Davis Kisotu began by reading from Genesis 1:1-6 where he highlighted the incredible act of God separating the waters above from the waters below, as described in Genesis 1:6. He emphasized the magnificence of God's creation and used this to illustrate God's power and majesty. The Bishop conveyed that this powerful God, who created the universe, also deeply loves humanity.
Bishop Kisotu further explained that the way God sees us is vastly different from how we perceive ourselves or how others view us. He encouraged the congregation to understand that God's perspective is one of love and care, and that we should see God as a loving father. To illustrate this point, he shared a personal example of how his children confidently go to the supermarket, buy items, and then ask him to send money to cover the costs, trusting in his ability to provide for them. He pointed out that this is similar to the faith we should have in God.
Finally, the Bishop taught that to receive blessings from God, one must adopt the mindset of a child—a mindset characterized by trust and dependency. He urged the congregation to approach God with the simplicity and confidence of a child, believing that God is always willing and able to meet their needs, just as a father would for his children.
