Don't Limit God | Carter Conlon

About this sermon

Website: http://www.tsc.nyc *Uploaded with permission from TSC. What does it look like when God decides to speak again through ordinary people? This sermon explores how God chooses unlikely candidates to be his voice in critical moments. Pastor Conlon believes we're in a divine moment where God is opening doors, especially on college campuses, and seeking vessels for his purposes. Key Points: 1. God chooses the unlikely - Based on 1 Corinthians 1:26-29, God deliberately selects the foolish, weak, and despised to shame the wise and mighty 2. Biblical examples: -- Moses: 80-year-old with speech problems, just a stick and one sermon -- David: Teenage boy who defeated Goliath through God's spirit -- Gideon: Fearful young man who led 300 against thousands -- Esther: Woman who felt unwanted but saved her people 3. Hannah's prayer transformation - She moved from "give me a child for myself" to "give me a child for your kingdom," representing the shift from selfish to surrendered prayer 4. The surrender principle - True usefulness comes when we stop seeking personal fulfillment and ask God to produce life in us for his glory 5. Don't limit God - Personal testimony of praying to lead 100,000 to Christ as a speechless police officer, later fulfilled in Africa The central message: God waits for people who will pray like Hannah - "If you do something in my life, I will bring it back to you for your kingdom." #carterconlon #limit #prayer
