The Legacy of the Past

What if your past wasn’t meant to disqualify you—but to fuel your faith? In this message, we’re invited into a powerful reflection on legacy, surrender, and God’s unwavering faithfulness across every season of life. Drawing from Ephesians 3:14–21, we’re reminded that our purpose isn’t to understand every detail of God’s plan—but to know Him deeply and trust His timing completely.

So often, we look back on our lives through the lens of pain, disappointment, or unmet expectations. But Scripture invites us to see something different: God’s provision woven through every chapter. Just like David in 1 Samuel 17, who faced Goliath with confidence—not because his past was easy, but because God had already proven Himself faithful—we too can face our future with courage.

This message challenges us to stop rehearsing what went wrong and start remembering who carried us through. Our confidence for tomorrow doesn’t come from a perfect past, but from a faithful God. As we step into a new year, the question becomes deeply personal and deeply confronting: Are we willing to live open-handed before God—surrendering our plans, our timelines, and even our lives—to truly find them in Christ?
