Becoming a Church That Strengthens One Another - Part 1
1 Samuel 23:15–18 captures a powerful moment where Jonathan strengthens David in God during a season of fear and pressure. This message explores what it means to be a people who step into others’ struggles, speak God’s truth in times of confusion, and point one another back to His promises. It highlights how true encouragement brings strength, helping others remain grounded in God even when circumstances don’t change.

687
Father's Day Sermon
This message looks at what it really means to honour your father and mother and why it still matters today. Through Joseph’s example, we see fatherhood shaped by faith, courage, and sacrifice, even when it’s costly. It also reminds us that God is a good Father who welcomes us as His children and heirs in Christ. Take time to reflect, and consider how this could heal relationships and deepen your walk with God and family.

686
The King’s Visitation
As Jesus weeps over Jerusalem, a sobering picture unfolds of a people who missed the King’s visitation. Though filled with religious activity, they failed to recognize the One who brings true peace. This message reflects on the danger of overlooking Jesus while holding onto personal expectations. It gently calls for a response—recognizing Him as He is, opening our hearts fully, and allowing the Holy Spirit to lead us into lasting peace.
-
685
Seeking the Midnight Hour
Life’s “midnight hours” reveal where faith is truly tested. Paul and Silas show how prayer and praise in the darkest moments can lead to breakthrough. This message reflects on perseverance, spiritual readiness, and the vital role of the Holy Spirit in strengthening and guiding believers. It emphasizes seeking God in prayer during difficult seasons, responding with active faith, and trusting Him to move even in the night.
-
684
A Faith That Refreshes Others
Your faith is meant to impact others. Is your life refreshing people or draining them? Root your faith in Christ, love others sacrificially, and live in a way that strengthens those around you. Don’t just believe—act. Pray for others, serve them, forgive freely, and be a source of encouragement. Let your faith move beyond words and become a daily, visible blessing.
-
683
What It Really Means to Be Pentecostal
Pentecost is not just an event—it’s a calling. You are filled with the Holy Spirit for power, purpose, and witness. Being Pentecostal means living holy, preaching the gospel, and moving in the Spirit daily. Don’t settle for a label—pursue the gifts, serve faithfully, and step out boldly. Commit to prayer, the Word, and action. Go, be a witness, and let God work through you.
-
682
Called to Praise: Make God Big Again
You are not just saved—you are called to praise. When the Holy Spirit came, believers didn’t stay silent—they magnified God. It’s time to return to that passion. Make God big again in your life: in your words, your worship, and your witness. Reject passivity, rise in faith, and boldly praise Him. Step forward today—recommit your heart, receive the Spirit’s power, and live a life that declares God’s greatness.
-
681
Self Discipleship
Step away from a life centred on self-care and return to the transforming power of God’s Word. This message calls believers to actively pursue Scripture, not passively neglect it. Like the disciples on the road to Emmaus, let Jesus reveal truth through the Bible. Reject spiritual complacency, commit to daily study, and rediscover your identity, renewal, and joy by immersing yourself in God’s living Word.
-
680
The Power of Confession
This sermon teaches that confession is the gateway to freedom, forgiveness, and restored relationship with God. From Psalm 32, it shows how hidden sin brings inner turmoil, while honest confession brings release, cleansing, and joy. True confession must be joined with repentance—a change of mind, heart, and actions. Believers are urged to stop justifying sin, surrender fully to God, and experience His mercy, guidance, and the joy of living upright before Him.
-
679
Walking by the Spirit
This sermon calls believers to live daily by the Spirit, not the flesh. Drawing from Galatians 5, it highlights the inner conflict between sinful nature and the Spirit, urging Christians to choose obedience, crucify the flesh, and bear spiritual fruit. It challenges complacency and emphasizes intentional living, surrender, and dependence on God. True transformation is seen in a life producing love, joy, peace, and self-control through the Spirit.
-
678
Swim or Sink
This sermon uses Ezekiel’s vision of the rising river to illustrate spiritual growth and depth in God. Believers are challenged to move beyond shallow faith into deeper reliance on the Holy Spirit. It warns against stagnation and highlights the power of God’s presence to bring life, healing, and transformation—even in “dead” situations. When overwhelmed, believers must call on God, trusting Him to sustain, restore, and lead them forward.
-
677
The Danger of Familiarity
This sermon explores how familiarity with God can dull spiritual passion and reverence. Through the story of the Ark of the Covenant, it contrasts two responses to God’s presence—complacency versus honor. It warns that familiarity leads to lost value, unbelief, diminished joy, and ingratitude. Believers are called to renew their first love, remain spiritually alert, reject sin, and live with gratitude and awe for God’s presence every day.
-
676
Firstfruits of the Resurrection: Hope Beyond the Grave
On Easter Sunday, this sermon explores the supernatural power of Jesus’ death and resurrection, revealing Him as the “firstfruits” of those raised to life. Drawing from Jewish context, Passover, and Scripture, it highlights the hope believers have in eternal life. Through powerful teaching and testimony, listeners are reminded that Christ’s victory over death assures a future resurrection and calls us to live with unwavering hope.
-
675
The Misunderstood King: Why the Cross Calls Us to Repentance
A Palm Sunday message from Gospel of Matthew reveals how Jesus was widely misunderstood—by crowds, disciples, and leaders. What appeared as defeat in the crucifixion was in fact His coronation as King. The sermon challenges listeners to reject self-made ideas of God, embrace repentance, and recognise Christ’s kingdom as present now, calling for true surrender, sacrifice, and transformed lives through the Holy Spirit.
-
674
The Word, The Light, and The Life
An exploration of John 1:1–14, revealing Jesus as the eternal Word, Creator, and source of life and light. This sermon unpacks deep truths about the nature of God, the incarnation, and the call to respond through repentance, belief, and receiving Christ. It also challenges believers to live as witnesses like John the Baptist—reflecting Jesus, who is full of grace and truth, and preparing the way for others to encounter Him.
-
673
Mother's Day Sermon
On Mother’s Day, several women from the church share personal testimonies and biblical reflections on motherhood, faith, and spiritual family. Through scripture and life experiences, they highlight the power of prayer, the influence of a mother’s love, and the importance of nurturing faith and guiding the next generation in God’s truth.
-
672
When Jesus Shows Up
When life’s storms rage and God seems distant, remember: Jesus still shows up. This message encourages believers who faithfully serve God while facing deep personal challenges. Through Scripture and powerful biblical examples, discover how Christ meets us in our darkest moments, calms our storms, and brings hope to impossible situations. Don’t give up—keep trusting, praying, and calling on Him. Your breakthrough may be closer than you think.
-
671
Following Christ Through Lent
Jesus’ wilderness temptation shows how Lent is a season of testing, trust, and growth. Though hungry, pressured to prove himself, and offered power without sacrifice, Jesus remained obedient to God’s word. His example teaches believers to resist shortcuts, pride, and self-reliance. Lent invites reflection, deeper dependence on God, humble worship, and faithful obedience, trusting His timing and choosing righteousness over comfort or worldly success.
-
670
Exodus: The Journey of Salvation
Exodus reveals salvation as a journey from slavery to freedom, where God delivers His people by grace, not their own effort. Just as Israel was freed from Egypt, believers are freed from sin through Christ and called into a lifelong process of transformation. Faith in God, not works, brings redemption, while obedience, reliance on His Word, and the Holy Spirit sustain growth, strengthen believers, and lead them into lasting freedom, holiness, and deeper relationship with Him.
-
669
Fighting The Unseen
This sermon explains that although the spiritual realm is unseen, it shapes our lives and faith. Believers face a daily battle between flesh and Spirit, but victory comes through dependence on the Holy Spirit. Drawing from the Book of Isaiah 58, it teaches that fasting is an act of humility and surrender that strengthens faith, aligns us with God’s will, and produces compassion, obedience, and spiritual renewal.
-
668
Walking with the Holy Spirit
In 1 Kings 19, Elijah hides in fear, yet God tells him, “Go, return on your way.” This sermon calls the church out of the cave and into fresh anointing. Like Elisha, we must remember our first encounter with the Holy Spirit, refuse to quit in dark seasons, and say, “I will not leave You.” From testing to breakthrough, God invites us beyond moments of power into daily friendship, faithfulness, and fire with the Spirit.
-
667
Carry Each Others Burdens
This sermon explores what the Bible teaches about carrying burdens. It reminds us that burdens are real and part of life, but God never intended us to carry them alone. Grounded in Galatians 6:1–2, it emphasises restoring others with gentleness, humility, and love. Believers are encouraged to support one another, reflecting Christ’s compassion and strengthening faith through shared care.
-
666
The Call To Work
This sermon explores “The Call to Work,” reminding believers that Christian work is more than a job — it’s living out an active, fruitful faith. As we understand our season, prioritise eternal impact, and commit to loving community, God grows us. Through grace, perseverance, and the Holy Spirit’s power, we are called not only to serve, but to experience healing in our hearts and relationships as we bear lasting fruit.
-
665
We Are The Circumcision
Join us in this sermon as Pastor Julian shares with us what circumcision means to us as believers in this day and age.
-
664
Healing Testimony
We are excited to have with us guest Deborah McDermott who has a powerful testimony of her two children being healed of autism (doctor confirmed).
-
663
It's Time To Seek The Lord
Jesus said if we seek Him, we will find Him. God has given us an open invitation to come to Him. But He often allows us to go through seasons that will provoke a desire in our hearts to seek Him and be filled by what He offers and not what the world offers. In this message, Pastor Julian Mabey challenges us to seek God in this season as we birth what He wants to do in our lives both individually and corporately as a church.
-
662
The Prodigals
Peter Cavanna exhorts all prodigals, all of those who have wandered away, to come back into the Father’s house. He reminds us that sometimes we may think and act like the lost son. Equally, there may be times when we see traits of the older brother in us as well. This message, based on Luke 15:11–32, powerfully encourages us and stirs us to change.
-
661
Feeding On The Word
In James 1:12, we are encouraged to not fill up our spirits with wickedness, filthiness, or any other sinful traits. For that reason, Pastor Julian is exhorting us in this message to stay deeply rooted in the word of God, make room for the good seed in our hearts, and prepare ourselves to receive it. This is essential to our spiritual growth and daily sustenance.
-
660
Better Promises
During the last supper with His disciples, Jesus instituted the new covenant and gave a commandment for us to take communion as often as we can, in remembrance of Him. In this communion service, Pastor Julian reminds us of the significance of the last supper and shares with us what the new covenant is and how we can walk in the realisation of the better promises upon which it is established.
-
659
Baptism Of The Holy Spirit
The baptism of the Holy Spirit is a foundational truth in the Word of God. This was expressed in the life of Jesus when He got water baptised and the Holy Spirit descended on Him like a dove after He came out of the water, launching Him into a ministry of miracles, signs and wonders. As we celebrate Pentecost Sunday, we are encouraged to follow the example of Jesus by being baptised in the Holy Spirit so we can carry on the ministry that He began.
-
658
Easy Yokes And Light Burdens
Any attempt to please God in our own strength or in our own way is very laborious and cannot produce a lasting fruit. In fact, our righteousness is like filthy rags before God. In his sermon, Pastor Julian Mabey shares with us the provisions that God has made for us through Jesus Christ to serve Him efficiently without having to rely on our own strength.
-
657
Precious Holy Spirit
Like in Genesis 1:1–2, the Spirit of God is hovering over our lives and His church and is waiting to spring into action in conjunction with the word of God. But if we do not have a desire and passion for Him to fill us and enable us to be involved in what He is doing, we will just become relics and walk in compromise. Join us in this sermon as Pastor Julian Mabey challenges us to develop a thirst for the Holy Spirit so that we might know what it really means for Him to fill our lives and the church.
-
656
The Islanders
In Acts 28, the islanders in Malta kindly received Paul and the other travellers who were with him, even though they were all strangers to them. In his message, our guest minister, Peter Cavanna, highlights some valuable lessons from this account on how the church can be kind and hospitable to people that walk through our doors, regardless of how different they are from us.
-
655
Blindspot
Luke 24 gives an account of how Jesus walked with two disciples who were on their way to Emmaus, and they did not recognise Him. Why could they not recognise Him? How is it that God can be so close to us, yet we cannot see Him? In this message, our guest speaker, Peter Cavanna, expands on this account and shares some insights on how God could be in our blind spots sometimes.
-
654
The Ministry Of The Holy Spirit
When God created Adam, He breathed into him the breath of life to enable him to live and carry out his assignment in the garden of Eden. Similarly, as Christians, God has made provisions in the person of the Holy Spirit to empower us to live a fruitful life on earth. We are not meant to live according to our own abilities. Join us in this message as Dhanga Mhango shares with us what the role of the Holy Spirit is for us as Christians and how we can take advantage of His ministry in our lives.
-
653
Why We Reject God
When we hear the gospel message, we can choose to either embrace it or keep God at arm's length. The reality is that no matter how clearly the message is communicated, some will reject God while others will accept Him. This is apparent in the account of God’s chosen people, Israel, who rejected Him numerous times in spite of all He did for them and through them. In his sermon, Emmanuel Donor encourages us to obey God and allow Him to reign in our lives at all times.
-
652
The Message of Resurrection
Before his death, Jesus prepared the disciples by telling them he would die and rise again on the third day. However, when he died, the disciples lived in fear and in such a way that showed they seemingly had forgotten what Jesus told them. In this Easter sermon, Jean-Louis expands on the story of the resurrection of Jesus and encourages us to live a life of faith by constantly looking to Jesus and believing in what He says to us in spite of the circumstances.
-
651
What Is Your Priority?
Often we say that God has the highest priority in our lives, but the time we spend with Him is very little compared to the time we spend at work, with our families or on entertainment. Could it be that we have got our priorities wrong as they say actions speak louder than words? Gerry Beeves challenges us in this sermon to re-examine our priorities and put our relationship with God above all other things in our lives.
-
650
Allured Into The Wilderness
There are seasons in our Christian walk that God will take us into some kind of wilderness for a purpose that He has prescribed for our lives. As seen in several examples in the bible, wilderness seasons are not forever and are not meant to destroy us. Join us in this message as our guest minister, Julian Mabey, encourages us to embrace wilderness as seasons when God teaches us things and carries out His specific purpose of preparing us for what is coming next.
-
649
How To Overcome Disappointment
Disappointments do occur in life and are sometimes due to unmet expectations or fallout from our own past choices or decisions that other people make on our behalf. In his message, Jean-Louis draws an example from the story of Nehemiah to show us how the human heart naturally reacts to unfavourable outcomes and how we should instead strive to adopt a godly response in dealing with disappointments.
-
648
Pressing On
When he was in chains in a prison, Paul said in Philippians 3:14 that he was “pressing on.” How was he able to press on while being under restriction and chained to a wall? What did he really mean by pressing on? Join us in this sermon as Peter Cavanna sheds light on what it means to press on and how it applies to our walk with God.
-
647
A Pie In The Sky When You Die ?
Lots of people talk about christianity as if it is a pie in the sky when you die. Some say it is a hard thing to be a Christian, but you can get through, just keep going, and eventually your reward is in heaven and it awaits you. This is true, but it is not the whole picture that Jesus wants us to take. Jesus said that he has come to give us life abundantly, and not just to scrape through. Join us in this sermon as Gerry Beeves inspires us to realise how wonderful and blessed it is to be a Christian.
-
646
Hope In God
Many of us are going through challenges today and do not fully realise yet that God is with us and He is able to lead us into victory. We may not know how or when, but like Jesus brought Lazarus back to life in John 11, God is able to resurrect any ‘dead’ situations in our lives if we can trust in Him. Join us in this sermon as we learn how to approach situations in our lives with hope in God who is mindful of us.
-
645
A Call To Priesthood
According to 1 Peter 2:9, God’s calling upon our lives affects our generation and is not limited to us as individuals. However, our day to day activities, which include juggling with various responsibilities and managing the challenges that come with them, have occupied our time and energy so much more that we are comfortable with getting by, not to speak of affecting our generation. In this sermon, Dhanga Mhango shares with us how to operate effectively in our calling as a priest to our generation.
-
644
God's Church
As Christians, we have ample examples in the book of Acts and in Paul’s epistles of how the church, despite its imperfections, can still effectively fulfil its mandate of carrying and expanding the kingdom of God on earth. In this message, we take a look at the Philippian church and learn how we can draw from them a blueprint for our effectiveness and relevance in today’s post-modern society.
-
643
The Fiery Furnace
In Daniel 3, we read about the three devout Hebrew boys that were thrown into the fiery furnace for standing for God and refusing to bow down to the image and idols that everyone else was worshipping in Babylon. Our guest speaker, Peter Cavanna, shares with us how this story is still very much relevant to our lives today and the lessons we can learn from it, as we live in a culture that is different and frequently averse to the Christian way.
-
642
He Is Your Waymaker
The role of the shepherd is very important to the welfare of the sheep. It is known that the shepherd walks the path first before taking the sheep on a journey, especially in unfamiliar territory. He creates a bridge for the sheep to cross a river. He navigates the path for the sheep to avoid dangerous areas. In his sermon, our guest minister, Julian Mabey shares with us the truth that Jesus is our Shepherd and He makes a way for us where there seems to be no way.
-
641
Staying The Course
As we begin to journey through 2023, it is important that we stay the course. This is what God wants from us. Listen to this sermon as Emmanuel Donkor shares with us how we can win with perseverance the race which is set before us despite the obstacles that beset us, and moreso stay the course until our purpose is fulfilled.
-
640
How To Overcome Through Prayer
The church, both global and local, as well as individual christians are in one of the most challenging times. However, God has made a provision for us to overcome by seeking His face. Join us in this sermon as we explore the need for us as children of God to embrace a lifestyle of prayer.
-
639
Thanksgiving
Quite often, when we pray to God, our prayer consists mostly of the things we want Him to do for us. We should however remember what God has done for us and approach Him with a heart of gratitude. In this sermon, Gerry Beeves shares with us the importance of spending time to give thanks to God in our prayers.
