✨ SUNDAY RECAP | YOUTH SUNDAY ✨
What a wonderful Youth Sunday at Five Mile! We were blessed to have Rev. Christian Pittmon ministering in both services, and the Lord gave us two powerful messages that challenged us to examine our foundation and remember our purpose.
Sunday Morning — “Built to Last” | Matthew 7:24–27
Bro. Christian reminded us that in a world where right and wrong are becoming blurred, we must get back to the Bible, back to conviction, and back to the foundational truths of our faith. Jesus is still the Messiah, the Holy Ghost still has power, miracles are still real, and Jesus is still coming again!
Jesus spoke of two builders—one built on the rock and one on the sand. The storm came to both, but the foundation determined what remained standing. What we build in private will eventually show in public when the storms come. We can’t fix up the outside while the inside is crumbling. Being built to last starts from the inside out.
Storms will come, but Jesus stays with us through them. And even when we have failed or parts of our lives have fallen apart, Jesus can build again. Our past does not have to determine our future when it is placed in His hands.
Sunday Evening — “What’s Your Why?” | Acts 1:8 & Acts 2:1–4
Sunday evening we were reminded that Pentecost is more than a shout, a dance, a denomination, or a historical event—it is a pattern for the Church today. The Holy Ghost wasn’t given simply for us to experience His power; He was given to empower us to be witnesses.
Before the power fell, the believers were united, humbled, surrendered, and in one accord. Then the wind came, the house was filled, and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost. God didn’t save us and fill us just to stay inside the church walls—He gave us an assignment to reach the world.
God found us, saved us, and changed us. Now our testimony should point others to Him. And our WHY must be stronger than our feelings. There will be days when we don’t feel like serving, witnessing, or continuing, but we can say, “I’m not going to quit because I know why I’m here.”
What a Sunday! ❤️🔥 Build your life on the Rock, be filled with His power, know your WHY, and go tell somebody what Jesus has done!
