Pioneers bring a new paradigm to the world. From technological innovators, to artistic captivators, pioneers shift the spectrum of reality. They are beacons of inspiration who enable others to push, progress, to see something new.
Jesus is the greatest pioneer the world has ever seen. He crossed eternity to descend to Earth, abandoning His kingly comforts embraced the poverty of humanity, he added to His divine nature, a human nature- fully God and fully man. He walked the earth for 33 years defying every expectation & cast off the conventional. He is our ultimate example.
The paradigm of Grace changed the world and now God has placed you on Earth to be a paradigm shifter.
When Jesus came on the scene, He fundamentally interrupted the culture and power structures of that time. He reprimanded the pharisee but received the prostitute. He chose fisherman for pupils, and joined sinners for supper. He ignored politics, yet won the hearts of the poor. He was born in a hut yet changed an empire. He died as a criminal yet still with a crown. He endured the void of God’s love that he could cross the void of sin and establish the way of Grace. He established a new era, a new paradigm, a new way to be human. Now He offers to you and I to join Him in welcoming others into this New Life.
Jesus wants to do something new, and he wants to do it through you! The paradigm of Grace changed the world and now God has placed you on Earth to be a paradigm shifter. To continue the work He already began. Jesus has the power and ability to do new things in your life and through your life. He allows imperfect people to continue His perfect work, and though you may never be “ready”, Jesus is calling you to start right now.
Will you continue the mission?
Will you pioneer?
“For I am about to do something new.
See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?
I will make a pathway through the wilderness.
I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.”
Isaiah 43:19
