Join us as we celebrate the gift of the life of Riven Eliashiv Phillips. The Phillips family are a model of how we display the hope of the gospel while grappling with death, and how we overcome!
“Paying the Cost” preached by Pastor Matthew and Pastor Wade, continues the “set out” direction we received from our New Years’ Service. Viewing through the biblical lens of the Nation of Israel and their experience with following the pillar of cloud, we learned that there is a price to pay for setting out. In setting out, we must be aware of the internal grumblings and external arguments that arise because of the desire to be comfortable without having to go through the affliction. Instead, we ...
When the pillar of cloud moved, the people of God set out in Moses' time. They picked up their tent pegs and moved out as ordained by the Lord. Based on direction we received during our New Years Eve Bonfire, we've been called to do the same. Pastor Wade and Pastor Matt took this time to strengthen us in accord with this endeavor and to give clear direction as to how the people of God learn to set out at the Lord's direction and at his timing. They also clued us into some of the pitfalls that hi...
As 2022 comes to a close and we reflect on all that the Lord has done in our body in 2022, our need for a proper perspective has never been greater. Pastors Payton Parsons and Matthew Perot helped us with this sermon entitled "Third Generation Thinking" to put into proper perspective why it is that we do what we do. By gaining a greater perspective of what the Lord intends for our generations, we can look at our children and prepare them in light of what their grandchildren will need them to be....
We have been given a precious revelation today! “Don’t Keep Christ in Christmas” is the perfect sermon as we near a close to the year 2022. Both Pastors Judah and Wade help bring us into contact with a very real and tangible revelation that the bible clearly demonstrates. Since we have been given the right to become children of God, Christ in us makes us just as He is. He is the incarnation, the Word made flesh, and so are we! We are the incarnation of Christ, the manifestation of Him to a lost ...
It pleased God to make his law great and glorious. Brothers Justin Treaster and J.J. Molock lead us on a riveting study of the scripture relating to this subject matter. What they found was that to God, to make his law glorious and to make his son glorious are one in the same. What's more is that Romans 8 tells us that we are sons who are being led by the spirit of the father. We can take a survey of our lives over the past decade and see exactly how he has been making us more glorious as sons. ...
We had an amazing time this morning! What a joy it was to having Pastor Wade and Brother Gabriel back with us! They shared with us about the beautiful work that the Lord is doing in the land of India and what he is doing in the Israel family. From the sermon “Consecrated Family”, we learned from our Pastor and Brother that all fatherhood derives its origin from the Heavenly Father, and it is through the familial relationship of a father and son that the kingdom is transmitted. From the life of A...
During the holiday season, most people are less alert and more angsty due the busyness that our traditions induce. Good thing we are not most people, but are supernatural sons of God that are building his kingdom on the earth. Therefore, Pastors Matt and Payton admonished us with this sermon entitled "Alert and Sober-Minded" to be just that, alert and sober-minded. They clarified what it means to be alert, not overwhelmed, and what it means to be sober-minded, knowing what the Father wants to ha...
Pastors Matt and Nik led us in a fantastic reflection on the growth that has taken place in the time since we received the New Years' mandate to build up the body. Through setting the table for our brothers and engaging in Team Unity Formation meetings, the Lord has matured us through cycles of death and resurrection. We were reminded that although the sifting is an absolutely necessary and God-ordained, it is not the point of God's working. The point is to draw us near to our brothers and to sh...
Brother's Carlos Rueda, Adam Corra, and Paul Rosales preached this amazing and inspiring word entitled "Smile Back". When we begin to realize just how good our father is to us in any and every kind of circumstance, when we realize the fact that he is smiling on us, it causes us to smile back! We restore the joy of our salvation when we realize that he favored us long before we even had anything worth producing. The fact that he delights in us, and not our performance is inoculating us from basin...
“Loyal Love” preached by Pastor Wade and Pastor Matt is a beautiful reminder of the character of our good Father. Our Father demonstrates his loyal love to us by reviving us continually through cycles of death, and we get to reflect him by showing the same loyal love back to him and to our fellow brothers. We are called to be the good Samaritans, showing that same loyal love to others. As we continually experience that loyal love that he pours out on us and respond with praise, that loyal love w...
We are growing in our appreciation for the times in the nothingness. We are learning that it is in these times and only in these times where we truly see the hand of God at work. It is in these times of nothingness, of darkness that God reaches down into creation and places his unique signature on situations. This is to show that it was him and only him that was able to bring about anything of lasting value. Pastor Nik Arezina and brother Abimbola Daramola helped us with this sermon entitled "Si...
We are growing and maturing here at LCM! Elder Eric and Pastor Wade brought a timely word that is helping us advance in our walk with the Lord. “Between the Rains” went head-to-head by confronting the many ways we well-meaning Christians are involving ourselves in activities dedicated to the Lord but in actuality were never directed by the Lord. We do not belong to ourselves so therefore our activities and deeds must be God breathed and directed by him. This is how we experience the resurrection...
“In the Nothingness” preached by Pastor Judah and Pastor Matt was an honest, sober, and inspiring message of what it is like to live in between the early and latter rains. Through personal reflections and engagement of scriptures, we are finding the joy of being in the nothingness! It is where we actually learn the lessons the Father wants us to learn and also where we get to demonstrate faith in him, knowing that resurrection power is on the way!
The two words to describe the sermon we just heard this morning are “Life Changing”. “Here Comes The Rain Again” delivered by Elder Eric is a sermon you will want to listen to again and again. Using the life of Elijah as an example, we learn that the word of the Lord to a man of God is what generates the faith that causes that man of God to stand in the midst of drought as he awaits the latter rains of transformation. Do not waste any time, listen to this sermon now!
We are like the disciples! We have power and authority, and yet there is yet something more that we need. What we need is to access the that power and authority through faith. Faith is generated when we go to our father in the kind of transformative prayer that Jesus modeled for his disciples. This is what causes us to live faith-filled lives. A conviction that although we cannot see him, he is right here with us to transform us and to generate the faith that moves mountains. Brothers Carlos Rue...
There is a confidence that is rising in our midst! We are doing away with the faithless and despairing thoughts of “I Can’t” and replacing it with “I Can”. We at LCM are very bold to declare that we can because our father is able to do immeasurably more in us, through us, and with us than we could ever imagine! Pastors Matt and Wade surged us forward into what is possible for the man and woman who believes in the Lord’s ability to empower us beyond are doubts. “Immeasurably More” is a sermon tha...
We are sticking to the plan! As we learned this past Sunday, our heavenly father has sprung a trap for the enemy. This is why, as brothers Paul Rosales and Adam Corra stated, we glory in our weaknesses. Through crying out for transformation as a result of these weaknesses, we see God's supernatural deliverance at work in our lives. This is the plan that King David stuck to as he dealt with Goliath. He refused to add any protection not given to him by his father, instead, he boasted in God's abil...
Pastors Judah, Wade, and Matt encouraged, inspired, and empowered us with this word this morning! ‘Operation Sledgehammer” was a message that admonished us that we can and will complete the work in the kingdom that has been assigned to us. Often times, we feel trapped and out of our depth due to a lack of perceived spiritual insight, experience, or ability. This is a lie of the enemy! We are not trapped, rather the Father is setting a trap for the enemy by using us even in our weakness. We are c...
Jesus was the Covenant man! His body was broken and his blood was shed for Israel's atonement and us Gentile's inclusion into the promises that God gave Israel. We have partaken in the Glory that comes from his sacrifice and it has changed us forever! Brothers Carlos Rueda and Marlin Sosa admonished us as to what our responsibility is to that covenant. In the same way, we are called to not only believe in what Jesus has done for us but also to be a covenant for anyone the father would put before...
What a word we received this morning! The Lord is advancing us forward as a body and we are not slowing down! Our momentum is gaining traction and our Pastors are preparing the way! “Preservation Through Covenant” reminded us that it is of the up most importance that we keep and remain faithful to our covenants. First to the covenant we have with King Jesus, then to our marriage covenants, and our covenants between our teams. As we demonstrate faithfulness by showing fidelity and loyalty to our ...
Coming off of our 7th One Association conference, how could we not reflect on everything the Lord has done? Because of men and women who held to deep convictions, we get to experience the supernatural workings of the Lord in our midst. Brothers Justin Linton and Abimbola Daramola help us by sharing their reflections on the messages preached at the conference and beginning to point at what our response should be in this message entitled “Own It”. The deep convictions that produced this way of lik...
We were incredibly blessed by the word this morning! Elder Eric and Pastor Judah walked us through a holistic view and understanding of the relationship the twelve tribes of Israel had as well as their promises. As we recapped the past 10 sermons, we were reminded our brothers receiving a blessing from our father poses no threat to what he has in store for us. This message took it a step further. If our brothers don’t receive their inheritance, that will definitely impact us. We need our brother...
Brothers Asad and Treaster delivered a powerful, timely, and soul stirring word! “Expect the Unexpected” is a sermon you will want to listen to again and again. Our brothers expounded on the revelation of what we already have been given in our sacks and they walked us through further examples to help us make the connections in our lives. We are not in control of our lives, plans, or future and our good Father has laid out unexpected moments for us to learn more about his character and to reveal ...
Pastors Nik, Matt, and Wade delivered a powerful and timely word this morning! “Check Your Sack” is a word we need in our time and day. The Lord has provided all that we need and what is required on our part, is greater levels of trust in the character of our good Father. We are never without, rather we need to see and look at what we have already been given! We must do away with the faithlessness of wanting to know every detail of the plan and choose to depend on our Father who has our lives, c...
“The King's Cup” preached by Brothers Marlin and Paul speaks to the righteous pattern that has already been laid down for us to follow. We surveyed the life of Abraham and other men of God and were inspired by their faithful life and commitment to be in union with their King. This is the same union and commitment we are called to when we choose to partake in the drinking of the King’s cup. We are rejecting the cup of Sodom, refusing self-exaltation, and any other worldly treasures because we kno...
We are in a beautiful season here at LCM as we find ourselves continually experiencing greater measures of the Lord’s revelation to our body! “Unsung Heroes” preached by Pastor Payton, Pastor Wade, and Pastor Matthew trumpets the heart of God and his desire for us to be Unsung Heroes. Looking through the lives of men of God who played pivotal roles to usher in kingships, put down ancient enemies, and establish kingdom works all around the world. These are the types of men we are aspiring to beco...
This message entitled "The Heroic Cup", preached by Pastor Judah and Elder Eric was all kinds of insightful, impactful, and revelatory. Beginning with a live demonstration by some of the best and brightest in our church, we examined the significance of sharing a "cup" or experience with someone. The gentlemen brought to mind how Jesus called his disciples to share of this same kind of cup because he provided something supernatural to partake in. As we engaged with the story of Judah (because we ...
“The Adullam Event” delivered by Pastor Matt and Pastor Wade, walked us through the life of David and the events that took place in the cave of Adullam. David, a man after God’s heart, demonstrated a fidelity towards the men around him. He took men who were in debt, distressed, bitter of soul and raised them up to be mighty men! Men who would do great exploits and become like the King they were following. When we seek to make our brothers great, elevating them above ourselves, inspiring fidelity...
This sermon entitled "Prophetic Vision" was soul stirring, preached by two brothers that have spent time with the Father in order to deliver it to us. Following up from concepts on Sunday, brothers Justin Treaster and Marlin Sosa talked to us about how it is that we attain prophetic vision and a righteous reticle for our brothers. It all begins with having a personal vision of the Lord's character that causes us to cry out for personal transformation first that will then allow us to see what the...
