Message summary & scripture references
Jesus’ calling was to die on the cross and go to hell so we could be saved. We often assume that this was easy to do because, after all, Jesus is the son of God. However, this is far from the truth. Jesus walked the earth as a man and had to overcome stress and fear (just like the rest of us) to fulfill his calling. In today’s Daily Word, learn how Jesus used faith to overcome the largest difficulties of his calling. As you listen, look for ways that you can model Jesus’ walk of faith to achieve your calling.
