Control Week 4 - Control your ambitions

Apr 29, 2026    Davin Richard

What are you really building your life on?

In this message from James 4:13–17, we take an honest look at ambition, success, and the plans we make for our future. The world tells us to chase status, security, and self-made success—but James challenges that mindset by reminding us how limited our control really is. Our lives are like a vapor, and when we build everything around ourselves, it ultimately leaves us empty.

We unpack the difference between selfish ambition that ignores God and godly ambition that submits to Him and serves others. If you’ve ever felt pressure to have your future figured out or struggled to trust God with your plans, this message will challenge you to surrender control and pursue something that actually lasts.
