Summary

Are you relying on your own strength to push through life’s challenges? What if the very strength you pride yourself on is the barrier to your breakthrough? In this transformative sermon, Pastor TJ Tyus reveals why humility—not strength—is the key to unlocking true growth and significance.

We often cling to our own ways, stubbornly refusing to change. But as Pastor TJ shares through powerful stories and scripture, God is calling us to humble ourselves, learn, and immediately apply His truth. True hunger for a life of purpose begins with letting go of our pride and embracing humility.

🛑 Key Takeaways:

The difference between strength and true power: Why God uses your weakness.
How form and obedience lead to greater effectiveness.
The secret to moving from success to significance.

✨ Scripture Highlights:

Matthew 23:12 — "For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted."
Philippians 2:8 — "He humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross."
