Oase Community Church

With the sending out of our Walvis Bay community to plant a new Congregation in Walvis Bay, André gave us an Apostolic message of encouragement for the new plant. 

God has a wonderful plan and purpose for believers and his church. That is why He purposefully made us a HOLY PRIESTHOOD unto himself through Christ. How can the church reflect this Priesthood of all believers well? 

Something will always shape your identity. If it's insecurity, I will never walk in what God has made me for.

A new season is here. God is leading, refining, and inviting you to trust Him through disruption, resist the enemy's schemes, and walk humbly into the new thing He is doing.

As we celebrate the resurrection of Christ on Easter Sunday, we ask ourselves the important question: "How do I live in the power of His Resurrection". 

Why does God ask us to be holy? This message gives insight into this very important question every believer should be able to answer .

A powerful call to stop seeking fulfilment in empty, lifeless things and discover true, eternal life in Jesus Christ.

Sometimes we feel stuck in our growth in our Christianity. When we feel that way it's always a good idea to go back to the future. 

What is the most important thing we can learn as believers while we are here in this world?  God's greatest desire for us is summed up in his greatest commandment (Matthew 22:34-40) to us. But WHY is this so important to God? We explore this WHY in this message so we can better fulfil this command in our church.

In the message we unpack the tension between contentment and complacency. What does it mean to be truly godly and content in your season- without becoming a lukewarm Christian? Learn how to trust God deeply where you are, while still pressing forward for more of Him. true wealth isn't comfort or success - it's godliness with contentment. 

In order to follow Jesus and become more like Him, we must be willing to change.

This week we have a confronting message on how pride leads to downfall and how true humility unlocks God's grace, freedom, and authority as we align our hearts with Christ.

There is no "I" in team, but there is a "Me" in team. We all have our own, special part to play in the body of Christ. 

Dying To Live unpacks the biblical truth that following Jesus means dying to the old self and living by the spirit. This preach explores what it means to crucify the flesh, surrender our own way, and walk in the freedom and new life that comes when Christ lives in us.

It's possible to follow the Holy Spirit or my flesh. Which one am I following?

God is doing a wonderful work of sanctification in all reborn believers through His spirit. But why? So He can display us as His "holy trophies"? No! There is a much greater reason!

When God asked Abraham to pack up his things and leave everything known to him behind, he obeyed God without knowing the destination. Can you go without knowing? If you are willing to go, you would probably experience the best year of your life.

The Bible teaches us that you will always reap what you sow. It also teaches us that the choice ours. Are we sowing into the flesh or into the Spirit? The fruit will tell.

In the bible the two are one and the same thing. Hearing the word of God and obedience to it are the two sides of the same coin. One cannot claim to have heard God without the evidence of obedience to what he has said. 

Our experience of gratitude is enhanced by understanding that something has been done for us that we could not possibly do for ourselves - Such as what God has done reconcile us to Him.  On the other hand, a posture of entitlement does the opposite - leaving us unfulfilled in our relationship with Him.

This world is fleeting and cannot satisfy, but the Kingdom of God is a treasure worth giving everything for. Jesus calls us to lay down our lives to gain what can never be lost. 

Following up on the previous message of being a True Disciple, this message will focus on the wonderful gift Jesus gives to His followers that will enable them to pay the price of true discipleship. 

Jesus encountered three kids of people in his ministry. 1 )Those who openly opposed him, 2) large crowds who followed him because they loved the works he did and 3) true disciples, who left everything behind to follow him and intimately get to know him.  

What does it mean to finish well in your walk with Christ - staying faithful, running with endurance, and returning to our first love.

God isn't after perfection, but rather obedient hearts that trust Him through every season. It's often in our suffering that we are shaped, learning obedience and discovering His power working through us.

By this the world will know that you are my disciples...

This week we identify one of the great enemies of continually experiencing the presence of God in everyday life. 

The bible teaches us that Christ gave us some gifts to help us grow in our maturity as a believer. One of these gifts is quite surprising, but VERY POWERFUL if you allow it to work in your life. 

The Kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered it up. Then in his joy he goes and sells all the he has and buys the field. 

Something ha matured when it has reached the most advanced possible stage in a process. What does that look like for Christians? In what areas do we need to glow in order to be called mature followers of Christ?

A call to humility and teachability—reminding us that we only know in part, so we must listen well, speak with grace, and let our lives reflect Christ as we pursue truth together.

There’s no situation too hopeless when you ask the Spirit of God to come into it and breathe His reviving  life into it. He can turn your dry bones into His glorious army.

Pursuing Holiness  God calls us to live set apart—crucifying the flesh, fleeing sin, and walking as children of light. True holiness is found in repentance, surrender, and living fully in His presence.

We all know the Lord's Prayer Jesus taught in Matthew 6. Many believers recite this beautiful prayer by heart regularly. But what if Jesus intended to teach us HOW to pray instead of WHAT to pray... 

To be effective in the Kingdom of God, you have to give yourself as a living stone to God, the Master Builder, to place you in the right position for His purposes. Are you in position?

To have FAITH is one thing, to BE FAITHFUL is another. The Bible teaches us what will happen when we put the two together. 

Shaun Searle, visiting Elder, encourages us to be bold in following the Holy Spirit and trust Him to do great works for God. 

This message will help you recognise why you might be missing what God has for you, and give insight into how to position yourself correctly to walk in the fulness of what God planed for you. 

Most believers truly want to be used by the Holy Spirit for God's purposes, but somehow end up talking themselves out of the action when opportunities rise. Why is this? What can we do about it?

This message will encourage you to walk in the power of the Holy Spirit when you give yourself to follow his voice in your everyday life.

Sometimes we are tempted to hide our bad fruit from others and from God. But it is actually when we are brutally honest about our faults before God, he is able to turn every act of sin into an opportunity for healing. 

When God said: "Though shalt not have any other god besides me" he was referring to much more than a golden calf. What are the idols in our lives today?

Is it possible for a Christian to be used by the enemy? 

For believers to be effective in the Kingdom, we need to  balance  being guided by the Word of God and being led by the Spirit of God. 

What God has done in and through Gideon is a great lesson for all believers. He established his God given Identity, ensured Gideon of His authority and sent him into sure victory. This could also be how he uses you!

As we celebrate Christ’s resurrection following His crucifixion, we, like the Apostle Paul, long to live in the power of His resurrection. But how can this resurrection power be made real in our daily lives of faith?

This message seeks to find an answer to the questions many churches have concerning Christian spirituality. What is healthy spirituality from a biblical perspective?
