Lessons in Execution
In this sermon, Jawanza Fenelus walks through Luke 23:32-46, focusing on the crucifixion of Jesus and its profound implications for how believers face suffering. Drawing from First Peter 2:21, Jawanza highlights how Jesus' death serves as a model for enduring hardship. He identifies key lessons from Jesus' suffering, including the call to pray in the midst of pain, the need to remain anchored in truth when circumstances lie, the importance of seeing others even while suffering, and the act of fully entrusting God with every trial. Jawanza challenges listeners to reject self-sufficiency, embrace the sufficiency found in Jesus, and rely on the Holy Spirit rather than human strength. The sermon concludes with a powerful reminder that the cross, while foolish to the world, is the power of God to those being saved.
