Ambition – Metamorphosis: Part 3 – Woodside Bible Church

Woodside Bible Church Warren

When we are in Christ can we be ambitious? Maybe this question has crossed your mind, you’ve pondered whether you can have dreams or ambitions as you pursue Christ. But the picture of ambition that the world paints, is not one that Christians should imitate. So how do we reconcile our ambitions with godliness? In our message series, Metamorphosis, we are talking about transforming our minds with the word of God. Today, we will hear how our ambitions are welcomed in Christ, but we must submit them to God in an act of obedience to Him. Jesus had ambition, a ton of it. His ambitions were submitted to God, and He led them out with fervor—being the atonement for all. We have the chance to align our dreams and ambitions, just as Jesus did with God. When we submit them to God, He will exceed our expectations and align our desire with the desires of His own. We must put off worldly ambition and put on godly ambition. Listen further to the latest sermon of the series, as we learn what it means to see how God’s work changes our ambition.
