Bishop Dag Heward-Mills: Those Who Leave You

Here is a sermon by Bishop Dag Heward-Mills for you on dealing with situations where people have left you or where you find yourself wanting to leave without a clear direction from God.

Bishop Dag uncovered the following in his sermon at City Harvest Church on 17 May 2026:

1. Spirt of Deception (Revelation 20:7-8)

2. Spirit of Ungratefulness (Proverbs 17:13; Romans 1:21-24)

3. Spirit of Pride (Ezekiel 28:17-26)

4. Spirit of Wickedness (2 Samuel 17:1; Psalm 41:9)

5. Spirit of False Prophesy (1 Kings 22:21; Galatians 2:18)

6. Spirit of Greed (1 Peter 5:2)

7. Spirit of Selfishness (Ezekiel 34:17-19)

The blurb for the video is as follows:

"Why do people walk away from where God has placed them? Drawing from Luke 15 and the story of the prodigal son, this message explores the dangers of leaving the spiritual family God has given us.

Disconnection begins gradually through deception, pride, ungratefulness, selfishness, greed, or offence. When we fail to value where we belong, we may eventually find ourselves spiritually empty and broken.

Uncover the spirits and attitudes behind why people leave and learn how to remain planted, faithful, and fruitful in where God has placed you."

Saved by Grace, Shaped for Glory

 

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” — Epistle to the Ephesians 2:8–10 (NIV)

There are few truths more liberating than this: your salvation is not something you earned, but something lovingly given. In a world that constantly measures worth by achievement, status, appearance, or performance, God speaks a completely different word over His children — grace.

Grace means that God loved you before you proved yourself. Grace means that Jesus carried the burden you could never carry on your own. Grace means that the cross was not a reward for the righteous, but a rescue for the broken. Through faith in Jesus Christ, we are welcomed into the family of God not because we are good enough, but because He is merciful beyond measure.

How often we quietly fall into the trap of trying to “earn” God’s approval. We may think that if we pray more, serve more, succeed more, or fail less, then perhaps God will love us more deeply. But Ephesians reminds us that salvation is “not from yourselves.” It is a gift. A gift can only be received with gratitude and humility.

This truth removes both pride and despair.

Pride disappears because none of us can boast before God. Every blessing, every breath, every hope of eternal life flows from His grace alone. At the same time, despair also loses its grip because our standing before God does not depend on our fluctuating strength. Even on your weakest day, God’s grace remains steady. Even when you stumble, His mercy is not exhausted.

Yet grace is not passive. God does not merely save us from sin; He also saves us for a purpose. Verse 10 declares that we are “God’s handiwork.” The original idea carries the sense of a masterpiece — something intentionally crafted by the hands of a loving Creator. You are not an accident. Your life is not random. God is shaping you for His glory.

Sometimes we compare ourselves with others and feel inadequate. We may wonder whether our lives truly matter in God’s kingdom. But the Lord delights in using ordinary people for extraordinary purposes. A kind word spoken in faith, a quiet act of generosity, a prayer whispered for someone in pain, a life lived with integrity — these are all good works prepared by God Himself.

Notice that good works are not the cause of salvation, but the result of it. We do not serve God to earn His love; we serve because we have already received it. A transformed heart naturally begins to reflect the goodness of Christ. Grace received becomes grace extended.

To live “to the praise and glory of God” means that our lives point beyond ourselves. When others see patience in hardship, hope in suffering, humility in success, and compassion in weakness, they catch a glimpse of the character of Christ. The Christian life is not about drawing attention to ourselves, but about reflecting the beauty of the Savior.

Perhaps today you feel unworthy, weary, or spiritually dry. Hear this promise afresh: God’s grace is still sufficient. He has not abandoned the work of His hands. The same God who saved you is continuing to shape you. Your failures do not have the final word — His grace does.

So walk forward in faith. Receive His gift with thanksgiving. Live with humility, joy, and purpose. Seek opportunities to love others well. Let your words encourage, your actions honour Christ, and your life become a testimony to His goodness.

And when people ask what made the difference in your life, may your answer always be this: “It was the grace of God.”

Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You that I am saved by grace through faith, and not by my own works. Thank You for loving me even when I fall short. Shape my life into a reflection of Your goodness and help me to walk in the good works You have prepared for me. May my thoughts, words, and actions bring praise and glory to You. Teach me to live humbly, love generously, and trust You completely. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Dead to Self, Alive in Christ

“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” — Galatians 2:20 (NIV)

There are moments in life when we look in the mirror and quietly wonder whether we are enough. Strong enough. Pure enough. Worthy enough. Yet the glorious truth of the Gospel is this: our hope was never meant to rest upon ourselves. The Christian life is not about trying harder to become acceptable to God. It is about surrendering to the One who already gave everything for us.

When the Apostle Paul the Apostle wrote, “I have been crucified with Christ,” he was describing a profound spiritual transformation. The old life — chained to pride, fear, guilt, selfish ambition, and sin — was nailed to the cross with Jesus. In its place, a new life emerged. A life animated not by human striving, but by the living presence of Christ Himself.

Imagine that: the risen Jesus dwelling within you.

Not distant. Not indifferent. Not merely watching from heaven. Christ lives in you.

This means you do not walk through sorrow alone. When burdens press heavily upon your shoulders, Christ strengthens you. When temptation whispers, Christ empowers you. When your heart grows weary, Christ renews you. The same Savior who calmed storms, healed the broken, and conquered the grave now walks beside you every single day.

And why? Because He loved you.

Not a polished version of you. Not a future perfected version of you. He loved you at your weakest, your most flawed, your most undeserving. At the cross, Jesus stretched out His hands for the world — and for you personally. Every nail declared His mercy. Every drop of blood proclaimed redemption. The empty tomb now announces eternal victory.

Therefore, faith is no longer merely believing facts about Jesus. Faith is entrusting your whole life to Him. It is waking each morning and saying, “Lord Jesus, live through me today. Let my words reflect Your kindness. Let my actions reveal Your compassion. Let my life point others toward Your salvation.”

The world today is aching for hope. Many carry hidden wounds behind smiling faces. Many are searching for meaning in success, wealth, pleasure, or recognition, only to discover emptiness. But Christians carry the greatest news ever given to humanity: Jesus Christ is alive.

The grave could not hold Him. Death could not defeat Him. Darkness could not extinguish His light.

And because He lives, hearts can be restored. Addictions can be broken. Tears can turn into joy. The lost can come home. No life is beyond His saving grace.

So walk closely with Jesus today. Spend time in prayer. Open His Word. Listen for His voice in the quiet moments. Let His love soften your heart and transform your spirit. Then go into the world boldly — into your workplace, your family, your community — carrying the light of Christ wherever you go.

You may never stand on a great stage or preach before thousands, but your life can still become a living testimony that Jesus lives.

And sometimes, one soul seeing Christ in you can change eternity forever.

Jesus in the Way, the Truth, and the Life

"Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." -- John 14:6 (NIV)

There are moments in life when the road ahead feels uncertain. We search for direction in success, relationships, possessions, or human wisdom, yet still feel an ache deep within the soul. Into that restless longing, Jesus speaks words that have echoed across centuries with divine clarity: “I am the way and the truth and the life.”

Notice that Jesus did not merely point to a way. He declared that He Himself is the Way. In a world overflowing with opinions and distractions, Christ remains the unchanging path that leads to peace, forgiveness, and eternal life. We do not need to wander endlessly trying to earn God’s love or solve the emptiness of the heart through our own strength. Jesus has already opened the door through His sacrifice on the cross and His glorious resurrection.

When Jesus says, “I am the truth,” He reminds us that His promises never fail. Human words may disappoint, circumstances may shift, and emotions may rise and fall, but the truth of Christ stands firm forever. His love is not temporary. His grace is not fragile. His mercy does not run dry. Even when we stumble, He calls us back with open arms.

And when He says, “I am the life,” He offers more than existence — He offers abundant, eternal life. A life filled with purpose. A life transformed by hope. A life awakened by the presence of the Holy Spirit. Jesus did not remain in the tomb. He lives today. The risen Christ still heals broken hearts, restores weary souls, and shines light into the darkest places.

Perhaps you have been walking at a distance from God lately. Maybe prayer has become faint, worship has become routine, or the burdens of life have crowded out quiet moments with Him. Yet Jesus is still calling: “Come closer.” He longs for daily fellowship with you. Not religion without relationship, but a living walk together — one step at a time, one prayer at a time, one surrendered moment at a time.

Spend time in His Word. Speak honestly with Him in prayer. Worship Him not only in church but also in the hidden corners of ordinary life. The closer we walk with Jesus, the more His peace steadies us and His love overflows through us.

And do not keep this hope to yourself.

Our world is hungry for truth, desperate for hope, and weary from fear. There are people around you carrying silent pain, searching for meaning, wondering if anyone sees them. Tell them about Jesus. Tell them that He still saves. Tell them that the grave is empty. Tell them that mercy is still available today.

You do not need a stage or a perfect voice to share the Gospel. A kind word, a faithful life, a testimony of God’s goodness, or a simple invitation can become a light in someone’s darkness. The same Savior who changed hearts in Galilee is still changing lives today.

Jesus lives. And because He lives, hope lives too.

May your heart draw nearer to Him today — and may your life become a joyful witness to a world that desperately needs to know His name.
