Faith keeps you moving
Scripture: Genesis 12v1-9, Genesis 12v10–20, Genesis 20v1–18
-
99
Forward to the Promise
God’s promises aren’t slow or stalled. It’s doubt and fear that make us question them and look back. But His promises always move forward. They lead us out of bondage, into relationship, into purpose, and into inheritance. They are meant to carry us toward fulfillment, not leave us standing still. Scripture: 2 Peter 3v3-9, Exodus 6v6-8
-
98
Faith in His Promises
Our faith is made strong by the Promise Keeper. Scripture: Hebrews 11
-
97
Now Faith
Faith is the human response that takes hold of God’s promised reality (hypóstasis) before it becomes visible. Scripture: Hebrews 11v1-18
-
96
He became sin for us
“Christ died for us.” Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15v1-22
-
95
I am chosen, I am adopted
In today’s message, we reflect on the call of a holy God to a people set apart as His own. Scripture reminds us that holiness flows from who we are in God, chosen, redeemed, and called to reflect His glory. Scriptures: 1 Peter 2v7-10, Lev 11v44-45, Exodus 19v5-8
-
94
Holy God calling a holy people
In today’s message, we reflect on the call of a holy God to a people set apart as His own. Scripture reminds us that holiness flows from who we are in God, chosen, redeemed, and called to reflect His glory Scriptures: 1 Peter 2v7-10, Leviticus 11v44-45, Exodus 19v5-8
-
93
Breaking the peace
Humanity once lived in shalom, a whole peace with God, creation, and one another, until the serpent’s lie in Genesis 3 led us to doubt God’s goodness and define good and evil on our own, breaking that peace and leaving us with fear and shame. Ephesians 2 shows Christ entering that brokenness as our peace, restoring what was lost and reconciling us to God through the cross. Scriptures: Genesis 3v6-11, Ephesians 2v12-14
-
92
Bruised for us
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the foundation of our belief. Paul makes it clear that without the resurrection, our faith collapses into something vain and ineffective. With it, everything changes! Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15v1-22, Isaiah 53v3-10
-
91
I am the resurrection
In today’s message from John 11, we explore a moment that reveals Jesus not just as the giver of resurrection but as the resurrection Himself. He lets the finality of death settle in so God’s glory can be unmistakable. We then see Him enter fully into human grief, He weeps, stands with the mourners, and walks toward the tomb showing a God who is present in suffering. Scriptures: John 11v1-44
-
90
Show me your glory
Experience how God revealed His glory to Moses through His presence, His name, mercy, and goodness. Learn how this encounter changed Moses and what it means for us today. Scripture: Exodus 33
-
89
I am that I am
Today, we dive into Moses’ encounter with the burning bush, where God reveals Himself as the ‘I Am That I Am’, the self-existent one. Reminding us that some are ineffable and indescribable, simply beyond our scope. Scripture: Exodus 2v23-25, Exodus 3v1-14
-
88
The year King Uziah died
Isaiah’s encounter with God revealed the overwhelming reality of divine holiness which is simply beyond words. This moment called Isaiah, and all listeners, to humility and a deeper response to God’s presence. Scripture: Isaiah 6
-
87
His Thoughts
Psalm 139 shows that God knows our lives in detail, and other scriptures reinforce that being known by Him is central to who we are. From calling Adam to the promise in Isaiah that He never forgets His people, the theme is simple and direct. God seeks us, remembers us, and is never distant. Scripture: Psalms 139v1-17
-
86
Fear, Faith, and Trust
I am praying that fear and anxiety get displace by our trust and faith in God. Scripture: Psalms 56v1-13
-
85
Disrupting our fear
Advent story begins with do not be afraid… Scripture: Luke 1v12-13
-
84
Our Frame
In this message we explore the idea of "framing", comparing God's framing of the world with Jesus' framing our faith as its author and finisher, ensuring it reaches maturity and fulfillment. Scripture: Hebrews 11, Hebrews 12, Psalm 138v8
-
83
Hunger for Him
Scripture: John 6v35
-
82
Hunger
Scripture: Ecclesiastes 3v11
-
81
The Call - Samuel, Samuel
Samuel, a child ministering to the Lord under Eli, hears God's call but initially mistakes it for Eli's voice. Eli eventually realizes God is calling Samuel and instructs him to respond, "Speak, Lord; for thy servant heareth." This marks Samuel's transition from hearing to understanding God's voice. Scripture: Romans 12v1-2, 1 Samual 3
-
80
Saul, Saul
Saul, later known as Paul, a zealous Pharisee, was on a mission to crush the early church. But on the road to Damascus, he underwent a dramatic transformation, from a fierce persecutor of the Church to one of the faith’s most devoted Apostles. His encounter with Christ on the road to Damascus set him on a mission to spread the gospel, despite enduring many trials. Romans 12 captures the heart of Paul’s message: believers are called to offer themselves as living sacrifices and renew their minds, resisting worldly patterns. Scripture: Romans 12v1-2, Acts 9v1-30
-
79
The longest night
A child is born in a humble place, yet heaven and earth rejoice. He is the Light that darkness cannot overcome. The Word became flesh and dwelt among us, echoing God’s presence in Exodus. Light simply shines, and darkness retreats. We are called to move forward with God dwelling in our midst. Scripture: John 1v14, Isaiah 9v2, Exodus 25v8
-
78
Simon, Simon
An exploration of Peter’s renewed mind through Romans 12:1-2 and Luke 15:10-32 that frames transformation as deep spiritual reformation rather than a surface change. The episode traces Jesus’ encounters with Peter, showing how Jesus anticipates human weakness, prays for Peter’s faith, and nevertheless commissions him for service despite his failures. Scripture: Romans 12v1-2, Luke 15v10-32
-
77
A Renewed Mind
This message underscores the danger of external pressures and cultural norms shaping believers more than the Word of God, emphasizing the necessity of intentional transformation. The story of the prodigal son illustrates the unfortunate depths of spiritual malnutrition and the path that can lead to renewal. Scripture: Romans 12v1-2, Luke 15v10-32
-
76
Conform vs Transform
Be transformed by renewing our minds! This transformation is a deep, inner change, not just a cosmetic adjustment. We encourage you to adopt new thought patterns and mindsets to align with God's will and live authentically as Children of God. Scripture: Romans 12v1-2, 2 Corinthians 10v3-5
-
75
Forward to Freedom
Forward to Freedom explores themes of faith and perseverance emphasizing the importance of shedding burdens and avoiding distractions to fulfill one's purpose. The only way is to let go of Egypt. The challenges of change, the discomfort of new blessings, and the necessity of looking forward with faith, even when the path is uncertain. Scripture: Hebrews 12v1–2, Romans 12v1-2, Exodus 14v5-12
-
74
Running the race
We must lay aside every weight, including sin, fear, distraction, and ego, to run our own race with intensity and endurance. This involves shedding unnecessary burdens, avoiding distractions, and focusing on pleasing the One who called us. Scripture: Hebrews 12v1–2
-
73
Stretch
Scripture: Luke 6
-
72
Pressing forward
God’s grace calls us out of death and into life, but pressing forward means resisting the pull of a dead past. In this sermon, we explore how to guard our hearts, move forward, and trust the path God has set before us. Scripture: Ephesians 2v1-4, Proverbs 4v23–27, Exodus 16v3
-
71
Dwelling in the past
Are we clinging to dead hopes, outdated beliefs, or lifeless routines when life is calling us forward? Scripture: Mark 5v1-20; Philippians 3
-
