Sermon Notes:
Main Point: In 2024, we will Advance Totally Dependent on Jesus. When we are totally dependent on Jesus we will see a supernatural advancement of Gods Kingdom in our lives, our church, our city, etc…
Totally dependent on Jesus.
- Not on our skills and abilities. Only Jesus.
- Not on our wisdom or knowledge. Only Jesus
- Not on our understanding. Only Jesus.
Every miracle needed, every lost soul we are praying for, every unanswered prayer; every hurt; every stronghold that needs to be broken.
- We are totally dependent on Jesus and in the Power found in His name.

- Peter advanced into God’s perfect will and many souls were saved.
Lazarus and his family totally Dependent on Jesus:
John 11:38-46. Lazarus and his family and friends thought it was too late but Jesus is never late.
- Even death had to bow at the name of Jesus.
- Jesus advanced into his destiny and rose from the dead to redeem the world from sin.
Pastor’s thoughts:
- Even if you think it is too late; it is never over until God says it’s over. Be totally dependent on Jesus.
- And as we advance God’s Kingdom in our lives, in our church, in our families in 2024; it will be because we are trusting and totally dependent on Jesus and in the Power found in His name.
- I believe this year, 2024, we are going to see God do some extraordinary, supernatural, things.
- The ground work has been laid down and if God’s people are ready to be totally dependent on Jesus,
- Then 2024 will be a year of supernatural advancement of righteousness in our city, our region, our families
- I’m expecting God to do big things in your life, in our church, in our city, in the RGV.
- The only thing we have to make sure of to see God’s Kingdom advanced supernaturally is to make sure we are totally dependent on Jesus.
- How? Build off of 2023.
- True Praise and Worship of King Jesus
- Find and protect your secret place with God
- In 2024 add.
