Are you tired of feeling stuck in your own thoughts? This week at Fervent, Pastor Mike kicks off our brand new series Mind Games, diving deep into how to win the battle for your mind and experience real freedom.In today's message, we explore Romans 7 and Romans 12:2, learning how our old habits, lies, and shame cycles try to hold us back — and how God's truth can set us free.
We all love the idea of new life — but the truth is, most of us don't actually make room for it. The Resurrection of Jesus wasn't just a powerful historical event; it was a personal invitation. God isn't asking you to settle for an upgraded version of the old you — He's offering something brand new.But new life can't fit in old spaces.In this message, Pastor Mike unpacks Luke 24:1-6 and shows us why so many people miss out on the fresh work God wants to do. Whether it's fear of the unknown, comfort zone attachments, or holding onto things that no longer have life — we often make the mistake of showing up to a tomb with burial spices when Jesus has already moved on to new life.It's time to:1. Let go of what's dead.2. Clear out what doesn't fit.3. Make room for what's next.“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!” (Isaiah 43:18-19)If you've been praying for God to move, maybe He's waiting for you to make space.⸻Scriptures from this message:Luke 24:1-6Isaiah 43:18-19Matthew 9:172 Corinthians 5:17
Ever wonder if you're just cheering for Jesus or actually making space for Him to rule your life?This Palm Sunday message isn't about tradition — it's about a heart check. When Jesus rolled into Jerusalem, people laid down their cloaks and shouted praises, but days later, many turned their backs on Him. Why? Because it's easy to celebrate a King who passes by — but a whole lot harder to surrender to a King who wants the throne of your heart.This talk unpacks what it really looks like to make room for Jesus — not just on Sunday, but every day. Whether you're new to faith, curious about God, or just tired of going through the motions, this is for you.
Life gets loud. Storms hit. Pressure builds. And in the chaos, we all run somewhere—we all reach for something that feels “safe.” But what if the safest place isn't a situation, a strategy, or even a solution… but a person?In this honest and practical message, Pastor Mike breaks down what it really means to trust God as our refuge, strength, and peace—even when life is anything but peaceful.This isn't church as usual. It's raw. It's real. It's about finding safety in the storm, strength in the struggle, and peace in the pressure.Watch now—and if it speaks to you, drop a comment, share it with someone who needs hope, and take a moment to reflect: Where are you running when life gets hard?
Let's be real—it's hard to trust these days. People fail us, plans fall apart, and life gets messy. But what if we're looking at trust all wrong? What if trust isn't about controlling outcomes but about surrendering to something (or Someone) greater?In this message, we're unpacking what it really means to trust God—not just with words, but with our whole lives. We'll wrestle with doubts, break down common misconceptions, and discover how trusting God brings real peace, strength, and purpose.We'll be digging into Proverbs 3:3-8, along with other powerful scriptures, to learn how to trust that God is love, light, Spirit, refuge, strength, and peace.
In life, we all face moments of brokenness—whether it's in relationships, circumstances, emotions, or even our faith. But what if God is inviting us to step forward into something new instead of dwelling on the past? In this teaching, we explore how to make space for God's healing, understand His heart for restoration, and embrace the process of transformation.Based on Isaiah 43:18-19, this message will challenge and encourage you to trust God, even when it feels like healing is slow or doesn't come in the way you expect. Healing isn't about erasing the past but allowing God to make us whole.
Feeling Stuck? There's Hope for You!Ever feel like life just isn't working out the way you hoped? Like you're searching for something more but don't know where to turn? In this video, we talk about holy desperation—that deep, raw hunger for change that leads us to something greater.We look at real-life struggles, the power of faith, and how calling out to God can bring clarity, purpose, and breakthrough. No matter where you are in life or what you believe, this message is about hope—hope that things can change, that you aren't alone, and that there's a way forward.Give it a watch, drop a comment if something resonates, and take a moment to reflect. What are you desperate for? You might be closer to a breakthrough than you think.
Are you making space for God, or just squeezing Him into the margins of your busy life?In this message, Pastor Mike Rosado unpacks what it means to build a real, daily relationship with God—not just a quick check-in when we need something. Using Matthew 6:9-13 and 1 Thessalonians 5:17, we'll discover how to create intentional space for God through prayer, dependence, and surrender as we prepare for Easter.
Today, we're diving deep into what really matters to God—justice, mercy, and representing Him well in the world.Too often, we get caught up in what's "fair" instead of what's right. But God isn't about fairness—He's about justice. And if we truly follow Him, our lives should reflect His heart for people. So, how do we live that out? That's what we're talking about in this message.If this challenges you, good! Hit that like button, drop a comment, and let's wrestle with this together.

In this message, we're diving into what it means to make space for God—not just in a religious, check-the-box kind of way, but in a way that transforms our lives. Superstition says, "If I do this, God will bless me." But real faith says, "I trust God because I know Him."God isn't distant, indifferent, or waiting for us to impress Him.

In this message, Pastor Mike challenges us to examine the relationship between our faith and our actions. The central theme revolves around James 2:14-26, which teaches us that faith without works is dead. We're reminded that even demons believe in God, but true faith is demonstrated through our actions. This isn't about earning salvation, but rather about living out our faith in tangible ways. Pastor Mike draws an interesting parallel between our response to God and how children respond to their parents, emphasizing the importance of obedience in our spiritual lives. As we reflect on this, we're encouraged to consider: Are we living out our faith in practical ways? Are we responding to God's holiness with genuine humility? This message urges us to move beyond mere belief and into a faith that transforms our actions, relationships, and entire way of life. #Faith #works #Humility
As we stand on the cusp of a new year, Susan challenges us to reflect on what we need to 'pick up' and what we need to 'put down' in our spiritual lives. The central message revolves around Matthew 10:39, reminding us that clinging to our worldly lives leads to loss, while surrendering our lives to Christ leads to true fulfillment. This powerful verse invites us to examine our priorities, comfort zones, and the labels we've accumulated. Are we holding onto a worldview that hinders our spiritual growth? The story of creation and Jesus' ministry highlight God's desire for intimate relationship and compassion. As we navigate life's demands, we're encouraged to shift from a worldly perspective to a kingdom mindset, prioritizing our love for God above all else. This transformation allows us to love others more fully and face life's challenges with renewed purpose. #Surrender #NewYear #LetItGo
This Christmas message challenges us to embrace a powerful posture: 'He must increase, but I must decrease.' Drawing from John 3, we're reminded of John the Baptist's humble approach to Jesus' ministry. This isn't about disappearing, but about redirecting glory to where it truly belongs - to God. We're encouraged to examine how we might be getting in God's way, particularly through seeking recognition, clinging to control, and measuring our worth by worldly standards. The message invites us to trust in God's unconditional love and to find joy in surrendering control. It's a call to shift our focus from ourselves to Christ, understanding that our true worth comes from Him, not our circumstances or achievements. As we celebrate Christ's birth, let's consider how we can decrease so that He may increase in our lives, finding freedom and purpose in this counter-cultural approach. #Christmas #Trust #Surrender
In this message, we're challenged to redefine our understanding of joy. Drawing from Philippians 4, we learn that true joy isn't about circumstances or feelings, but a settled assurance that God is in control. Pastor Mike emphasizes that joy is not something to search for, but to choose. This aligns with James 1:2, where we're told to 'consider it pure joy' when facing trials. We're reminded that joy is a fruit of the Spirit, meant not just for our consumption, but for reproduction in others' lives. The message encourages us to shift from being mere consumers in our faith to becoming producers, adding value to others' lives as Jesus did. This perspective can revolutionize our approach to challenges, relationships, and even our church community, leading us to a deeper, more fulfilling spiritual life. #Joy #Gratitude #Consumption
In this message, we're invited to explore the profound concept of peace through the lens of Elijah's story in 1 Kings 19. We learn that true biblical peace goes beyond the absence of conflict; it's a God-given state of harmony and wholeness rooted in our relationship with Christ. The sermon challenges us to develop our relationship with stillness, reminding us that God often speaks not in the wind, earthquake, or fire, but in a gentle whisper. This insight encourages us to create space in our busy lives to hear God's voice, emphasizing the importance of resting our bodies, nourishing our souls, and finding a dedicated space for communion with God. As we quiet the noise around us, we're urged to be honest with God about our fears and frustrations, just as Elijah was. This message is a call to cultivate a deeper intimacy with God, moving beyond intellectual knowledge to a place of true connection and peace. #Stillness #Peace #QuietTheNoise
In this message, we're challenged to examine what truly matters in our lives. Drawing from Matthew 6:19-24, we're reminded of Jesus' teaching to store up treasures in heaven rather than on earth. This isn't about rejecting material possessions, but about aligning our hearts with God's priorities. We're encouraged to ask ourselves: do our bank accounts, calendars, and worries reflect what we claim is important? The sermon emphasizes that a life of impact comes from focusing on influence and significance. Influence is built through time, value, and service, while significance stems from faith, obedience, and love. As we navigate the holiday season, let's remember that hope—a confident expectation in God's promises—is the greatest gift we can offer and receive. This message challenges us to live purposefully, leveraging all we have for God's kingdom and seeking His face with renewed intimacy.
In this powerful message, we're challenged to embrace vulnerability as a pathway to spiritual growth and authentic relationships. The central theme revolves around Ephesians 4, where Paul encourages believers to 'put off the old self' and 'put on the new self.' This scripture reminds us that surface-level Christianity isn't enough; we need to be real with God, ourselves, and others. The message draws interesting parallels between our reluctance to be vulnerable and our tendency to hide behind a facade of perfection. It emphasizes that God's power is made perfect in our weakness, encouraging us to acknowledge our flaws and fears. This lesson is deeply relevant to our faith journey, as it invites us to step out of our comfort zones and into a more authentic relationship with God and our community. By embracing vulnerability, we open ourselves to emotional growth, improved decision-making, and ultimately, spiritual renewal.
In this powerful exploration of authenticity in faith, we're challenged to embrace a lifestyle of confession and vulnerability with God. The message centers on Psalm 139, where King David invites God to search his heart, demonstrating the importance of being real with our Creator. We're reminded that God knows everything about us, yet still loves us unconditionally. The key to spiritual breakthrough lies in stopping our pretenses, ceasing to hide, and engaging in wholehearted worship. This message encourages us to bring our whole selves - the good, the bad, and the ugly - before God, understanding that He desires to heal and transform the real version of us, not the one we pretend to be. By embracing this vulnerability, we open ourselves to experiencing God's grace and mercy in profound ways, leading to true spiritual growth and a deeper connection with our Savior.
In this powerful message, we explore the fear of tomorrow and how God's presence can overcome it. The central story revolves around Jesus walking on water, as recounted in Luke's gospel. This narrative beautifully illustrates how God sees our struggles from afar, approaches us in our distress, and brings peace to our circumstances. We're reminded that even when we don't recognize God's presence, He is there, ready to calm our storms. The message challenges us to choose stillness, courage, and self-discipline in the face of fear. By seeking God's kingdom and righteousness first, we can disarm the enemy's tactics of temptation, deception, and accusation. This teaching encourages us to trust in God's faithfulness, even when the future seems uncertain, reminding us that His presence is the key to overcoming our fears. #FearOfTomorrow #Courage #OvercomingFear
In this message, we explore the theme of overcoming fear when making hard decisions. The central scripture, Matthew 14:28-31, recounts Peter's bold step of faith to walk on water towards Jesus. This story illustrates how our focus determines our actions. When we fix our eyes on Jesus, we can accomplish the seemingly impossible. However, the moment we shift our gaze to the storms around us, fear creeps in and we begin to sink. This parallel reminds us that in our daily lives, we too face moments where we must choose between faith and fear. Pastor Mike challenges us to recognize that fear-based decisions are contrary to God's will for our lives. Instead, we're called to step out in trust, even when it feels unsafe. By feeding our faith and starving our fears through prayer and scripture, we can drown our doubts and move forward with confidence. Importantly, we're reminded that even when we falter, Jesus is always within reach, ready to rescue us if we call out to Him.
In this powerful message, we're challenged to confront our fears and recognize them for what they truly are. The story of David and Goliath serves as a backdrop, reminding us that our 'giants' - our fears and insecurities - are often more intimidation than substance. We're encouraged to dig deep and identify where fear might be disguising itself in our lives, whether as negativity, complacency, or even excessive control. The key takeaway is that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind. By recognizing our giants, revoking their power over us, and replacing them with trust in God's goodness, we can step out in faith and overcome the obstacles that seem insurmountable. This message invites us to meditate on God's past victories in our lives and to focus on His power rather than the size of our problems, inspiring us to live with courage and conviction. #Fear #Faith #Courage
In this powerful message, we're challenged to confront one of the most difficult aspects of our faith journey: restoring trust after it's been broken. The central story of Jesus and Peter's reconciliation after Peter's denial serves as a profound example of grace in action. We're reminded that true restoration isn't about guilt or shame, but about reaffirming love and renewing purpose. Pastor Mike illustrates how Jesus didn't just forgive Peter, but reinstated him to his role, showing us that our past failures don't define our future in God's eyes. This message encourages us to look at our own relationships through the lens of grace, confronting issues directly but without condemnation. It's a call to move beyond our comfort zones, to be vulnerable, and to invest in the costly but rewarding process of rebuilding trust. As we reflect on this, we're invited to consider: Are we leaving a legacy of isolation due to our trust issues, or are we courageously choosing to trust again, mirroring God's grace in our lives?
In this powerful message, we're challenged to confront the poison of bitterness in our lives. Drawing from the story of Jacob and Esau in Genesis 33, we see a beautiful example of reconciliation and grace. The key spiritual lesson here is that bitterness keeps us bound, while forgiveness and reconciliation set us free. We're encouraged to take a 'bitterness inventory' of our hearts, recognizing how it affects our relationships with others and with God. The message emphasizes that overcoming bitterness requires us to step into our fears, own our part in conflicts, expect grace, forgive first, and then seek reconciliation. This journey isn't easy, but it's essential for our spiritual growth and freedom. As we reflect on this, we're invited to consider: Are we shrinking our lives to accommodate our fears, or are we stepping out in faith, trusting in God's grace to heal our relationships?
In this powerful message on healing family wounds, we're reminded of the transformative power of forgiveness through the story of Joseph in Genesis 45. Joseph's journey from betrayal to reconciliation teaches us that facing our pain, finding God's hand in our struggles, and freeing our future are crucial steps in the healing process. The speaker challenges us to confront our family traumas, emphasizing that denying pain doesn't make it disappear. Instead, we're encouraged to reframe our experiences, seeing God's purpose even in our suffering. The profound insight that Joseph forgave without receiving an apology is a game-changer for many of us holding onto past hurts. This message invites us to break generational curses and patterns, reminding us that our identity is defined not by our wounds, but by Christ's sacrifice on the cross.
In this powerful message, we explore the parable of the Prodigal Son, a story that reveals the depths of God's love and forgiveness. We're reminded that this tale isn't just about the lost son, but also about the father's heart and the older brother's struggle. As we reflect on this, we're challenged to consider our own attitudes towards forgiveness and reconciliation. Are we like the younger son, needing to come to our senses and return home? Or are we like the older brother, harboring bitterness and resentment? The message encourages us to embrace the freedom of dependence on God, rather than clinging to an idol of independence that often leads to isolation. We're urged to allow ourselves to experience 'rock bottom' moments, recognizing them as potential turning points in our spiritual journey. Ultimately, we're called to let love overrule our human logic and extend the same grace and forgiveness we've received from our Heavenly Father.
In this powerful message, we explore the transformative power of praise, especially in difficult circumstances. The story of Paul and Silas in prison (Acts 16) serves as a profound example of how praise can break chains, both literal and metaphorical. We're challenged to perceive our purpose even in suffering, understanding that our calling isn't about what we love, but what we're created for. This perspective shift allows us to pursue praise as a choice, not just a reaction to good circumstances. By doing so, we proclaim God's power, present His peace, and ultimately lead others to salvation. The message encourages us to activate our 'holy imagination,' seeing potential blessings in our trials and understanding that our current sufferings are momentary in light of eternity. #Praise #PurposeInSuffering #PrisonWorship
In this powerful message, we explore the concept of 'praise before the battle' through the story of Joshua and the walls of Jericho. This biblical account teaches us that praise is not just a response to victory, but a powerful weapon in our spiritual battles. By focusing on God's promises and putting our trust in Him, we can align ourselves with His will and experience breakthrough. The unconventional strategy God gave Joshua reminds us that spiritual warfare often requires faith and obedience rather than relying solely on our own strength or logic. As we learn to praise God in all circumstances, we develop a deeper trust in His goodness and sovereignty, even when we don't understand His ways. This message challenges us to shift our perspective on praise, seeing it as an essential tool for spiritual growth and victory in our lives.
The Shema prayer from Deuteronomy 6:4-9 serves as a powerful reminder of our call to love God with all our heart, soul, and strength. This ancient Jewish practice of reciting the Shema twice daily offers us a model for maintaining focus on God amidst life's distractions. By internalizing this prayer, we can align our hearts, minds, and actions with God's will. The message challenges us to examine our inner dialogue, surrender our deepest desires to God, and commit our physical and material resources to His service. As we strive to live out the Shema, we're encouraged to identify the one area God is calling us to focus on, recognizing that true spiritual depth comes from becoming more like Jesus in character.
In this powerful message, we explore the transformative power of praise in our spiritual lives. Drawing from the story of Noah building an altar after the flood (Genesis 8:20) and the first mention of praise in the Bible (Genesis 29), we learn that altars were designed to designate praise. The key insight is that whatever we don't turn into praise, we turn into pride. This challenges us to examine our perspective and frequency - what we frequently see becomes our spiritual frequency. We're reminded that praise gives us a divine perspective, even in challenging times. The message encourages us to build spiritual altars in our daily lives, turning every situation into an opportunity for praise and allowing God to be enthroned in our circumstances.
In this powerful message on divine healing, Dr. Ron Walborn reminds of Jesus' compassion and willingness to heal. The story of the leper in Matthew 8 teaches us four key principles for receiving healing: responding with faith, recognizing God's power, requesting with humility, and following through with obedience. We're encouraged to approach Jesus boldly yet humbly, trusting in His desire to make us whole. Dr. Walborn challenges us to see healing not as an end in itself, but as a doorway to fulfilling God's greater purpose for our lives.
Today, we explore the powerful story of Naaman's healing in 2 Kings 5, which teaches us valuable lessons about pride, humility, and God's unconventional methods. We see how crisis often reveals what's truly in our hearts. Are we like Naaman, full of pride and entitlement, expecting God to work on our terms? Or do we approach Him with the pure faith of a child, ready to follow His instructions no matter how strange they may seem? Dr. Wanda Walborn challenges us to examine our own attitudes towards healing and God's work in our lives. Dr. Walborn reminds us that God's ways are not our ways, and true healing often requires us to surrender control and accept His gracious, albeit sometimes perplexing, methods.
In this powerful message, we explore the story of Jesus healing the man at the pool of Bethesda from John 5. The central theme revolves around the costs of healing and wholeness in our spiritual lives. Pastor Jessica Mitchell to consider whether we truly want to be made well, as Jesus asked the man. The message highlights three key aspects of healing: taking ownership of our healing journey, digging beneath the surface, and taking action. We're reminded that healing often requires us to rely on others, reset harmful habits, and resist lies about God's nature and our worthiness. This teaching encourages us to move past our comfort zones and embrace the transformative power of God's healing, even when it means facing difficult truths about ourselves. #Healing #Vulnerability #Overcoming
In this powerful message, Pastor Kelvin Walker reminds us of the transformative power of faith and the importance of community in our spiritual journey. The story of the paralyzed man in Luke 5:17-26 serves as a powerful metaphor for overcoming obstacles in our pursuit of healing and wholeness. We're challenged to 'raise the roof' - to go to extraordinary lengths to bring ourselves and others into Jesus' presence. This isn't just about physical healing, but about addressing our deeper spiritual needs. Pastor Kelvin Walker emphasizes that when Jesus is present, His healing power is available, and that sometimes we need the faith of others to carry us when our own faith falters. It's a call to action for us to be both recipients and agents of faith-filled, transformative encounters with Christ. #Healing #Miracles #Transformation
This powerful message challenges us to examine the reality of God in our lives. It urges us to move beyond nominal faith and truly live as if God is real. Pastor Mike draws from 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 and Isaiah 55:8-9, reminding us that God's ways are higher than ours and that our current afflictions are light compared to the eternal glory awaiting us. If God is real, it should fundamentally change how we approach life, relationships, and our inner world. We're encouraged to focus on our spiritual growth rather than external appearances, and to view our challenges through the lens of eternity. This perspective can transform our approach to pain, waiting, and discomfort, helping us trust in God's greater plan even when we don't understand it.
In this powerful message, we're reminded of our priceless value in God's eyes. Using the analogy of commercials highlighting 'priceless' moments, we explore how God sees us as worth a 'king's ransom.' Susan delves into Luke 14:25-30, where Jesus talks about counting the cost of discipleship. We learn that God knew our worth before we were born, despite our flaws and mistakes. The key takeaway is that we must receive this truth, reject the lies we tell ourselves, and reassess our worth based on God's perspective. This message challenges us to see ourselves as God sees us - not worthless, but priceless. #PricelessIdentity #RejectingLies #GraceAndTruth
In this powerful message, we explore the story of Moses and the burning bush from Exodus 3, delving into the theme of insecurity and how it can hinder our spiritual growth. We learn that insecurity often manifests as hiding from God, questioning our identity, and projecting rejection. Pastor Mike Rosado draws parallels between Moses' reluctance to accept God's call and our own struggles with self-doubt. We're reminded that God's selection of us is not based on our perfection, but on His purpose. The message encourages us to lean into God's presence during uncertain times and to trust in His power despite our perceived lack. By understanding that insecurity and confidence can coexist, we're challenged to step out in faith, allowing God's strength to be made perfect in our weakness.
