In the New Testament, the Apostle Paul tells us that we are the temple of the Holy Spirit. God no longer resides in physical buildings but in us—His church. I once encountered an old stone church and felt a deep emotional response. It reminded me of the prayers, love, and devotion once present there. Although the building may have lost its significance, God never forgets His people or their acts of love. Remember this passion, and let’s rekindle our desire for Him, individually and as a communit...

As a church in Times Square, we faced the tragic events of 9/11 in 2001 with a peace that passes all understanding. Our hearts were filled with the Word of God, and we were assured He was with us. I witnessed countless individuals coming to Christ during that period. We were not shaken or thrown off course because God had spoken to us and protected us from being overwhelmed by the trials ahead. We know there's an ongoing hour of trial in this world, which will only grow deeper and darker as time...

A small percentage of people are driving the agenda today in our country, but we have the power to overcome them. We cannot be satisfied with knowing the truth but seeing little impact on our generation. The story of Sodom reminds us of a lawless society driven by lust. Today, we face similar issues, like the growth of marijuana stores replacing souvenir shops in our cities. The illusion of freedom is bondage and darkness. We must take action, speaking out against these challenges and striving f...

We live in a generation today with an absurd viewpoint on truth. The whole concept of your and my truth doesn't exist. Jesus Christ Himself said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life, and no one comes to the Father except by me.” You can't get to God by making up your rules. There is only one path, and the promise of embracing it will set you free. The truth of God will lead you into a place of power and supernatural life that was not available to you before. Only God that can make a differenc...

The scriptures show us Jesus associating with criminals. They arrested Him, caused Him incredible pain, and put Him to death. People were no longer interested in Christ’s words. Today, people are pushing God out of our schools and government. Jesus and the gospel have become offensive. So the question is: How do we preach the gospel when our nation is so hostile towards Christians? We follow Jesus' example. Jesus had the power to destroy everyone while He was on the cross. Instead, He said, “ Fa...

Psalm 32:6–7 says, “For this cause everyone who is godly shall pray to You in a time when You may be found; surely in a flood of great waters they shall not come near him. You are my hiding place; you shall preserve me from trouble; you shall surround me with songs of deliverance.” When this world is spinning into deeper and darker crises, the Bible says that people's hearts will begin to fail them. Because of the fear that comes upon the earth, floods of the ungodly will not touch the people of...

It's time to tell God your weakness and need for Him. He's promised to reveal His strength through you to this generation. Seek His guidance and provision. Knock on the door of opportunity and believe that whatever you ask, you will receive. The Bible says that everyone who asks receives. We can all say, “God, I need what you have for me. I need strength beyond my own. My resources are insufficient for the journey ahead of me. I lack the necessary willpower and conviction. My testimony is so ina...

America has lost touch with God in this generation. We've forgotten our founding principles, and we're now pushing aside the name of Jesus Christ and even mocking those who believe in Him. This deception has led to an increasingly lawless, violent, and confused society, very much like Sodom in the Bible. We must pray, seek God's forgiveness, and ask God to restore our connection to Him by standing firm in our beliefs and sharing the truth of God's Word with love. We can combat deception and brin...

In 1 Corinthians 2:1–5, the apostle Paul emphasizes that when he came to the Corinthians, he did not rely on his eloquence or human wisdom to share the testimony of God. Instead, he chose to focus solely on Jesus Christ and His crucifixion. Paul understood that it was not his strength or accomplishments that mattered but rather the power and mercy of God working through him. It's not in your abilities or my knowledge that a difference can be made in sharing the gospel message of God. The Spirit ...

It's a tremendous privilege to have the opportunity to be a shining example of God's love in this world. Imagine a church filled with people worldwide witnessing our burning passion for God. They look at us and say, “I don't know what they have, but I want it.” This example is the same experience that occurred on the day of Pentecost. Religious people encountered a group of individuals whom the Spirit of God ignited, and when they saw it, they said, "We want that." I experienced this when I shar...

Listen to the words of God in Isaiah 45:2: “I will go before you and make the crooked places straight; I will break in pieces the gates of bronze and cut the bars of iron.” God can free you from whatever pit you are in today or whatever mountain stands before you. He's able to make every crooked path in your life straight again. He can remove any obstacle the enemy has set before you. God will take care of those difficult places you can't get out of, and He will take care of every place you've f...

God has chosen to reveal His glory through us, imperfect and flawed as we may be. Sometimes, it's hard to comprehend why He would choose people like us. We can never fully grasp the true extent of God’s glory. Yet in His mercy, He sends us out to share about Him—the infinite, all-powerful one who created the universe with a word. God letting us to speak about Him is a testament to His mercy and kindness. When we look in the mirror, let's just acknowledge the goodness and mercy of our God. It's h...

He will never abandon you or let you down. He’ll be by your side through it all. Like the apostle Paul said, even after going through everything, you'll still be standing at the end, all thanks to t...

Jesus Christ is the purest living water for humankind. When He went to the cross, His blood was shed so we could be forgiven and have a new life. The Devil's kingdom and right to rule your life was destroyed. God promised us a remarkable transformation from the captivity that used to occupy our minds, hearts, thoughts, and future. He sends those whose lives have been supernaturally changed to tell others that Jesus Christ took their place and punishment. Christ offers them freedom from the chain...

A great evangelist, Moody, once preached a message about a lighthouse and the importance of the lower lights. The lighthouse was a safety beacon calling ships to a secure harbor during storms. However, a keeper was responsible for lighting the lower lights to show the way through a channel into this safety area. The keeper decided not to light the lower lights one night because the weather seemed calm and pleasant. Little did he know that a massive storm would arise that night. The ship, amid th...

I struggled with panic attacks for nine long years. A constant battle of fear running away from the serpent haunted me. I relied on pills and alcohol to cope. It was a living Hell, even sometimes requiring visits to the hospital. One night, when Christ entered my life, I made a choice. Instead of running, I confronted the serpent. I declared that Satan could only harm me if God allowed it, and either way, I was going to win. At that moment, I felt a powerful deliverance, and just as with Moses, ...

In this hour, let us fervently pray for God's help as a church. We must keep the testimony of His presence among us as we go where He sends us. Let's not rely on empty words and talk. We need the Spirit of God within us, for there is no hope for our nation without Him. We must open our hearts to God as our Lord and Savior. If you've never known God or lost your relationship with Him, remember: He engraved your name on the palm of His hands when He went to the cross. He hasn't forgotten you, even...

When we give God all the glory, our focus shifts away from ourselves and onto His message of love and freedom. Just as Moses and Aaron were weak vessels God used, we are also ordinary people with limitations. Today, let's surrender our self-centeredness and rely on God's strength. As we share His message, we should remember that it's not about us but the transformative work He desires to do in us and others. Take a moment to reflect on areas where you still rely on your strength. Then, surrender...

I thank God for touching countless lives in this generation. Many feel hopeless, trapped in their apartments, and have no future. God hears your cry today, as in the gospels where Jesus calmed the storm. God has made a way for us to reach out to those crying for help, even through the internet. I'm so grateful for this provision. I also thank Jesus for sealing hearts with His words, preventing a return to our old ways. Just like those who escape to tell their stories in the city, let’s start to ...

When I got saved and started reading my Bible, the first thing that happened was I saw my character in the light of what God says it should be. It's like going to a doctor. You look good outside until you stand in front of an X-ray machine. Then, when you stand in front of that machine, you start to see the things inside you that shouldn't be there. That transparency is what the Word of God does. For example, the Bible says, “Husbands love your wives as Christ loved the church and gave himself f...

We define ministry as simply living for the benefit of others. If Christ lives in you, you are in ministry. You don't need a title to do ministry. You don't have to be perfect...
