In his sermon, Pastor Nick reflects on Deuteronomy 18, where Moses speaks of a future prophet who will arise among the Israelites. He delves into Moses' role as a mediator between God and His people, emphasizing the need for discernment in recognizing God’s voice amidst the noise of the world. Drawing from his own experiences, Pastor Nick encourages the congregation to actively seek God’s leading in their lives through practical acts of generosity, such as setting aside a small amount of money to bless those in need, thereby tuning their spiritual ears to God's guidance. Pastor Nick also highlights the importance of understanding how God has continuously raised leaders, including prophets, evangelists, and teachers throughout history. He points to Jesus as the ultimate fulfillment of Moses’ prophecy, explaining that Jesus not only redeems humanity from sin but also equips the church with various gifts to advance His mission. By urging his congregation to embrace their roles within the body of Christ, Pastor Nick inspires them to be active participants in their faith journeys and to follow the calling God has placed upon each of their lives.
