This Mother's Day, Jesus Calls Worship Center Ngwenya was honored to welcome Guest Pastor L. Mzizi from Jesus Calls Worship Center Matsapha for a profound message centered on Luke 10:39-42 and the deeper spiritual truth about being grafted into the family of God.

Pastor Mzizi’s sermon highlighted the essence of abiding in Christ and understanding our identity in Him. Drawing from Luke 10:39-42, where Jesus commends Mary for choosing the "better part" by sitting at His feet, Pastor Mzizi emphasized that, like Mary, we must prioritize time with God. The passage spoke to us about the importance of focusing on the root—Christ—who is the source of our life and spiritual growth.

Connecting this message to John 15:4-5, Pastor L Mzizi explained that we, as Gentiles, have been grafted into the tree of God's family, and just as branches draw nourishment from the root, we bear fruit because of our connection to Christ. Through abiding in Him, we are empowered to produce fruit and live out our divine purpose. Even as descendants of Abraham (Romans 11:7-15, 16-17), we are called to identify with the root that nourishes us, acknowledging the spiritual legacy we are part of.

The sermon also took us to Proverbs 31:31, urging us to recognize the fruits of our labor and our spiritual identity. As Christians, we must ask ourselves: Are we bearing fruit as grafted branches? Are we fully immersed in God’s will for us and the purpose He has placed in our lives? We must look inward and consider our role in God's divine plan.

Pastor L Mzizi also highlighted Ezekiel 43:1-3,5, where God speaks of the Gate on the East. Jesus Calls Worship Center Ngwenya is called to be this gate—not merely in geographic terms, but as a spiritual gateway positioned strategically in God's plan, watching over the movement of His people and His will in the region. As believers, we are called to persistently engage with the will of God for our lives and our communities, understanding the authority and responsibility we carry.

In His presence, we receive the fullness of Grace, which empowers us to carry out God's will. Pastor L Mzizi challenged us to ask, "What are we going to do in such a time as this?" With unwavering faith, we must recognize our calling to bear fruit, stay rooted in Christ, and fulfill God's purpose for our lives.
