By All Mean...Press!!!
In this powerful message, we're challenged to pursue a deeper, more intimate knowledge of Christ 'by any means necessary.' The central theme revolves around Philippians 3:10-14, where Paul expresses his fervent desire to know Christ. We're reminded that knowing Jesus isn't a passive experience—it requires action, sacrifice, and persistence. The message emphasizes three key actions: forgetting the past, reaching forward, and pressing on. Just as the woman with the issue of blood pressed through the crowd to touch Jesus' garment (Mark 5:25-34), we too must press past our obstacles—be it unforgiveness, complacency, or personal struggles—to experience the transformative power of Christ. This exhortation encourages us to reflect on our spiritual growth, urging us to actively pursue a closer relationship with God, even if it means stepping out of our comfort zones or making difficult choices.
