Save The Last Dance | Stephen A Green | September 20, 2026

Main message: Jesus still brings resurrection and reversal — don't accept defeat as final; keep faith, persist in prayer and praise, and "save the last dance" because God can and will restore what seems lost.

Key points:

• The sermon centers on Matthew 9:18–26 (the synagogue leader and the bleeding woman) as examples of faith reaching Jesus and receiving healing and resurrection.
• Walk by faith, not by sight: refuse the report of death, labels, or hopeless diagnoses and believe God's power to change circumstances.
• Believers have access and authority through God — persist in asking, keep your mouth open in prayer, and don’t leave until you get your breakthrough.
• Protect your space: remove or distance from negative people who mourn or limit what God is about to do; celebrate others’ miracles rather than envy them.
• Praise and perseverance are crucial — worship and rejoicing prepare the way for God’s intervention and resurrection power.

Scriptures mentioned: Matthew 9:18–26, Genesis 1:1
