In this third sermon of the 'The Lord's Favor' series, Marcel delivers a message of insight and hope. Based on principles from the Jubilee and the fulfillment found in Jesus, the sermon emphasizes a 'holy reset.' Marcel differentiates between the pursuit of happiness and the pursuit of holiness, urging listeners to prioritize and actively pursue holiness as God is holy and has made them holy through Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Practical steps for the week include daily prayers for holiness and choosing one area in life to intentionally pursue holiness. The sermon concludes with communion, reflecting on the holiness bestowed through Jesus' sacrifice.
