442. Caught Up In God's Story (Week 4) // Josh Yeoh

The City SG Podcast

“What if all this was so that your life would create a context for someone else to come into his destiny? Would you still do it?” - @yeohjo In the final week of “Caught up in God’s story” series, we had the honour of having Josh Yeoh, who shared his journey of how God gave him a word to sow seeds of prayer movement into the local church, yet challenged and remade him into a man that will lay down his dreams and step away from self-actualisation and help others come into their destinies. Sharing from the relationship of Jonathan and David, Barnabas and Paul, where the former had godly contentment in taking the backseat and fully investing in the interest and the assignment of the latter, brought God’s purpose to pass and the Antioch Church was established. He left us with this question: Who are the people, ‘David’s’ and ‘Pauls’ in our lives that we would step aside to, give our resources, time and energy and lay down our lives for so we could build them up for success? Ultimately, the Antioch church can only be build through: 1. A diverse body with different gifts and talents and we are not to dismiss those whom we think are less. 2. A culture of fasting and praying, where we are filled with a holy discontent and be awakened to things in God we would otherwise go without. 3. Identities found not in the sending but in being set apart for the Lord. As we close this sermon series, may we pray for the desire to be set apart for His kingdom and live out God’s story in our lives.
