Jesse Lockhart – 8‑9‑26 PM ServiceIn the evening service, Brother Jesse turns to Romans 11, teaching on the mystery of Israel’s partial blindness and the Gentiles’ place in God’s plan. He explains how Israel, after centuries of tradition and self‑righteousness, became blind to the very Messiah standing before them, missing the glory of God because they trusted their own conceit. He warns the Gentile church not to fall into the same trap—becoming so routine, traditional, or self‑satisfied that they lose sight of God’s presence. Drawing from Malachi to Matthew, he recounts how religious leaders upheld the law yet missed Christ’s miracles, teachings, and fulfillment of prophecy. He contrasts the ministration of the law, which was glorious but veiled, with the ministration of the Spirit, which reveals God’s glory openly through Christ. Using Moses’ shining face and the veil placed over it, he shows how unbelief blinds hearts, but turning to the Lord removes the veil and lets believers behold His glory. Brother Jesse urges the church not to settle for tradition without presence, law without grace, or routine without revelation. He reminds them that the veil was torn when Christ died, granting access to God’s glory, and that the fullness of the Gentiles is nearing its end as Israel slowly awakens to Christ. His call is clear: don’t miss what God is doing right in front of you—seek His glory, walk in His Spirit, and refuse to let blindness take root in your generation
