Apostle Kenneth Makopo - The Church and The Word of God (CPT)

This week at Faithpoint Church CPT, The message, Apostle K. Makopo reminded us that the purpose of the Church is to bring people into the presence of God, not merely into the presence of man. As believers, we are called to minister to the Lord through genuine worship, praise, thanksgiving, and love, recognising that true worship is directed toward Him and not ourselves. We can only truly worship God if we know Him, and we come to know Him through His Word. The sermon encouraged us to approach God with childlike humility, not as champions, and to cultivate real conversations with Him rather than simply reciting prayers. It also warned us to be discerning about who lays hands on us, as spiritual impartation takes place through the laying on of hands, and reminded us that agreement with God opens the way for spiritual access. Prayer without the foundation of God’s Word is like a fire without fuel, because the Word is our spiritual “data” that keeps us connected to heaven and enables us to know Christ, the living Word. As we spend time in God’s presence and remain under the counsel of the Holy Spirit, His life becomes evident in us, prompting us to reflect on where our current faith and lifestyle will lead us in the years to come. Ultimately, the message emphasized that to neglect the Word of God is to neglect God Himself.
