God knows exactly what we went through, what we are going through, and what we will be going through. God prepares us to face any challenges if only we acknowledge that we are not in control of life's storms, but Jesus is. We need to surrender our fears, worries, and anxieties to Him, trusting in His wisdom and sovereignty. We learn to trust Him more deeply, knowing that He is always with us, guiding us through the storms toward the shores of His eternal peace. Let us explore how we can navigate through life's storms with faith, courage, and perseverance, guided by the beacon of hope leading us towards the shore. Live streaming Copyright License #20714391

The divine connection refers to the intimate relationship between humanity and God in the Christian faith. “A divine connection with God is not merely a religious affiliation but a personal, transformative bond that shapes our lives and actions.”
God has already made full provision for us, which serves as a reminder that it's already available. We can receive it because it has already been provided by God.

The future is inherently uncertain, filled with possibilities and challenges yet to be revealed. Instead of fearing the unknown, view it with God's vision and faith as a canvas painting awaiting to be revealed. Approach the future with faith and with a sense of curiosity and openness, ready to adapt and receive whatever God has for me. "God has already made full provision for us, which serves as a reminder that it's already available. We can receive it because it has already been provided by God. " Take Away: 1.

Commit to serve God unconditionally by - Wisely stewarding your time - Investing and utilizing every opportunity to learn and grow - Giving selflessly, especially in the season of inadequacy
Happy New year! As we are in a dedicated season of fasting and prayer,. The Lord has been promptly preparing me to encourage the church to face the future courageously and receive what God has provided. For the next few weeks, Sunday teachings are going to be focused on these two important subjects: facing the future courageously and receiving what God has provided. The future is inherently uncertain, filled with possibilities and challenges yet to be revealed.

“Angels are sent ahead of time to set the stage and people up for revelation, the manifestation of God to work wonders at a place and circumstance.”
Obedience is willful surrendering to and abiding by the directives, precepts, and teachings of God as revealed in His Word. It entails accepting God's wisdom and sovereignty with a sincere response to His authority. Obedience includes a sincere desire to align one's actions, ideas, and attitudes with God's will, rather than just following regulations.
Have you ever received news that broke your heart and took your breath away? In a moment like that, when God's promises don't seem to line up with your circumstances, it's easy to wonder where He is in the midst of your problems and pain. Those are the times we most need to get alone with God so we can try to get His perspective on things. We need to have ears to hear our heavenly Father when overwhelming problems surround us. Our problem is that we give our ears to people and accept their opinions. Only those who love and care about you will speak positive and encouraging words and try to understand your circumstances. The rest of the people will only feed negativity into your life. If you allow your ears to hear God in the midst of your challenges and pain, we challenge you to hear God's voice guiding and leading you through the season.
Mark 2:1-5 "Journey of faith" The significance of the passage is that it reveals the power of faith, the importance of community in one's journey of faith, and ultimately Jesus' ability to heal us and forgive our sins. Faith in Jesus is the most important factor in the Christian journey. Our personal faith and the audacious faith of friends, family, and random people that God uses to change our lives
For a true believer, devotion is not merely a ritualistic practice (doing) but a profound connection that emanates from the very core of our being. The heart of devotion is not confined to the walls of the church or the echo of hymns and songs; it resides within us, waiting to be awakened. Because there is a longing and deep hunger within every human heart for God.
Matthew 14:22-33 "The way to handle life's problems is to stay focused on Jesus." Some people think that becoming a Christian exempts them from life's problems. Unfortunately, that's not true. But no matter how bad things get, God never abandons us. God is in the storm!
It is important to seek God's presence in our lives and acknowledge our total dependence on Him. In our daily lives, we must seek God's presence. Pray, ask, and seek His presence to lead your lives
Ephesians 3:20,21 This word will help you learn to give glory to God and rest assured that He is accomplishing things that you can't.
Goal: In this sermon series, we will explore the biblical, scientific, and practical aspects of understanding the mystery of the mind and seek to gain a deeper understanding of this remarkable mystery of the mind to use as a tool and weapon in the hands of God to create the influence of the Kingdom of God in our surroundings. Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight." To quiet our mind and find peace amidst the noise of the world is one of the most challenging things we face in our lives. The mind can sometimes lead to anxiety, confusion, and feelings of being overwhelmed by the noise of expectations and emotions. Live streaming Copyright License #20714391

The human mind is a wondrous and intricate creation of God, shrouded in mystery and complexity. It is the seat and the treasure chest of our thoughts, emotions, and decisions, and it plays a crucial role in our relationship with God and our fellow humans. In Psalm 139:14, we read, "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful; I know that full well." Our minds are a remarkable gift from God, fearfully and wonderfully made. They are the instruments through which we seek to understand the world, learn, reason, and make choices. Recognizing the divine origin of our minds fills us with awe and gratitude. The human mind is a fascinating and complex entity, often referred to as the "seat of the soul" or the "window to the spirit." It's a mystery that has intrigued philosophers, scientists, and theologians for centuries. In this sermon series, we will explore the biblical, scientific, and practical aspects of understanding the mystery of the mind and seek to gain a deeper understanding of this remarkable mystery of the mind to use as a tool and weapon in the hands of God to create the influence of the Kingdom of God in our surroundings.
As the children of God, we are empowered in Christ to fulfill great things, and God is able to exemplify His power at work in us and through us. As God's children, we are empowered with the potential to do great things, but many are stuck in current negative conditions, failures, and fear. God created you for a specific, unique, one-of-a-kind purpose. Despite any situation you are currently facing, God purposely fashioned and ordered your steps to fulfill his dynamic plan for your life. Many individuals feel helpless when trials appear, and it seems as if their circumstances or environment will never change. Through this message, we want to encourage you that God has final authority regarding the overall temporary conditions you experience in life. God's ways are not our ways, and it could be that God is equipping and empowering you during life's challenges for a great work he has called you to fulfill.

How God deals with our enemies. Each of us has faced adversaries, whether in the form of personal conflicts, external threats, or inner struggles. But as we delve into the scriptures, we'll discover how God is intimately involved in our battles and how we should respond. " An attack against God's people is an attack against God. "
Breakthrough moments where God's will and power are clearly manifested and opportunity, clarity, and sudden changes occur A breakthrough is a profound miraculous event or experience that reflects God's intervention and guidance in the lives of His people, leading to positive change and spiritual growth.

In the midst of our fast-paced lives, intentionally creating space for God is essential. God's transformative power becomes evident when we create space for Him in the center of our lives. Main Idea: Creating space in our lives for God to experience His transformative power This teaching covers three important factors: 1. The need to create space for God in our lives 3. Aspects of creating space 4. How do we create space for God?
"If you want to change your life, you have to change your story." How do you change your story? Do we have the power to change our story? Only Jesus can change our story. That's why, when you and I come to Jesus, our lives are not determined by where we are coming from or what we have done but rather by where we are going and what Jesus has done for us.
"To be content with God's provision. God provides in every season of our lives, but instead of enjoying and staying content, we desire things that could be and should be." One of the hardest tasks in life is learning to be content. "Content" does not necessarily mean passive, unimaginative, or lacking initiative. "Content", as it is used in this text, refers to being satisfied with "such things as you have." Highlighted areas: 1. The Israelites' complaints 2. The Danger of Discontentment 3. How to Overcome Discontentment (Take Away)
We are living in a time where our faith, principles, and way of life are challenged daily. A true leader and a faithful believer in Christ are constantly bombarded by the enemy, world systems, and, unfortunately, attacks within the church to shake our belonging to God's purpose and Jesus. Especially In times of challenges and difficulties, it's common to question our sense of belonging and identity. However, as believers, we can draw strength from our faith to affirm our belonging even in the midst of adversity. Through this teaching, we are going to focus on understanding the importance of affirming our belonging to God's purpose and in Christ despite external and internal challenges. Three critical components: - Challenges to belonging - Four crucial questions that every leader and believer must ask oneself - How to affirm your belonging to God's purpose and in Christ
Joshua 5 illustrates the significance of preparation, remembrance, and surrender as the Israelites stood on the threshold of God's promises. As we, too, face various thresholds in our lives, let us learn from their example by fully committing ourselves to God's covenant, remembering His faithfulness, celebrating His redemption, trusting in His provision, and surrendering to His authority. By doing so, we can confidently navigate through life's challenges and embrace the abundant blessings God has in store for us. Takeaway: 1. Instead of rushing to conquer and possess your promises, take time to Pause and reflect (rest, revaluate and restore) 2. Focus on renewing your relationship with God. Ask honest questions, How strong is my relationship with God compared to last week? 3. Change our mindset from a hand to mouth mentality to sowing and reaping. Search for God's presence and encounter before taking a step forward. Live streaming Copyright License #20714391
The dictionary definition of empower is “to give power or authority to; to authorize.” It can also mean “to enable or permit.” When you are empowered, you are enabled or permitted to do what your calling requires of you. Main Passage: John 4:28-30 The story of the Samaritan woman perfectly illustrates how God sent Jesus not to condemn the world but to save the world through him. Jesus humbles himself, engages the woman in conversation, sets her free from shame and guilt, and empowers her. She arrives at the well as a sinner but leaves as an empowered saint. Encounters with God will do that to someone, even YOU! She goes through four stages of transformation. Live streaming Copyright License #20714391

Remember that there is a Kingdom purpose behind that. God used Nehemiah to restore His people out of exile, which ultimately led to the renewal of His promise and covenant
