In It To Finish It

This powerful message from Natalie Runion centers on the Hebrew concept of Manasseh, meaning to forget or to cause forgetfulness of past hardships. Drawing from Joseph's story in Genesis 41, we discover that true spiritual freedom comes when God enables us to release the pain of our past and embrace who we are becoming in Christ. The message challenges us to examine what we're holding onto that prevents us from moving forward in our calling. Church hurt is acknowledged as real, but we're reminded that healed people help heal people, and our willingness to forgive and forget becomes the pathway to our promised future. The unification of two churches serves as a living example of this Manasseh principle, where communities choose to let go of past wounds and step into new kingdom purposes together. We're confronted with a choice: will we allow past betrayals and disappointments to define our future, or will we trust God to transform our pain into purpose? The call is clear: we must decide if we want revival more than revenge, and whether we're willing to sit in the tension of unanswered questions long enough to see God work all things together for good.
