Sermon Notes
Some of you have been frustrated with your life not because you lack gifting, but because you’ve been trying to fit into spaces that were never designed for you. You’ve been shrinking, adjusting, editing yourself just to belong.
But when Jesus stood in Luke 4 and declared, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me,” He wasn’t searching for identity He was announcing assignment.
He knew who He was. He knew why He was sent. He knew what He carried.
1. YOU WERE ANOINTED TO ANNOUNCE A KINGDOM THAT CENTERS THE MARGINS
2. WERE FILLED TO FREE PEOPLE — NOT FIT IN
3. YOU WERE CALLED TO CLARITY — NOT CONFUSION
4. YOU WERE SENT TO RESET WHAT IS BROKEN
