‎WEDNESDAY SERMON UPDATE

‎WITH:SISTER LEBO MOSS
‎
‎MESSAGE:THE POWER OF THE TONGUE
‎
‎JAMES 3:5-10
‎
‎Words have immense power. They shape our realities, mold relationships, and influence how others see themselves. Speaking intentionally allows us to encourage and uplift, while careless or hostile words can inflict deep, lasting emotional damage.The choice between building and destroying often comes down to how and why we speak.
‎
‎ Our words profoundly impact our relationships, spiritual lives, and circumstances. The word challenges believers to recognize that the tongue is small but incredibly influential, capable of bringing either profound encouragement ("life") or deep destruction ("death").
‎
‎Proverbs 18:21: “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.
‎
‎”James 3:5-6: Compares the tongue to a small spark that can start a massive forest fire. Because the tongue guides our direction (like a rudder on a ship), it requires divine grace to control.
‎
‎
‎A wholesome tongue is described as a "tree of life" that nurtures those around us.It is merely an instrument; the words we speak reveal the true condition of our inner self. Jesus taught that out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks (Luke 6:45). Bitterness produces an abrasive tongue, while a grateful heart yields encouraging words. James highlights the inconsistency of the tongue,the same mouth is often used to praise God and to curse fellow human beings made in His image .
‎
‎CONCLUSION
‎Transforming the way you speak requires guarding your thoughts and asking God for a pure heart. Before speaking, evaluate your words using the standard of Ephesians 4:29: Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.

‎Youngsters are challenged to be examples in their generation.
‎
‎1 Timothy 4:12 Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity."
‎It challenges all believers to earn respect not through age or status, but by living a life of undeniable integrity and Christ-like character."

‎Youth Sunday is just one way to celebrate what’s been happening all along as we encourage the next generation to step up and step forward. May the psalmist’s prayer be true in all of our churches: “I will cause your name to be remembered in all generations; therefore nations will praise you forever and ever” (Psalm 45:17).

SUNDAY SERMON UPDATE

WITH:PS D.LEKHANE

MESSAGE: VISION RATHER THAN SIGHT

SCRIPTURE REFERENCES
* Genesis 3:1
* Galatians 3:23, 25, 29
* 2 Corinthians 5:16
* Revelation 2:7

WHAT IS WALKING BY SIGHT

Walking by sight means relying solely on what you can physically see or immediately experience, which can be dangerously misleading. True vision requires foresight, wisdom, and an understanding of long-term consequences. Without a broader perspective, you risk stumbling blindly into hidden obstacles or making short-sighted decisions.The difference between navigating by immediate sight and moving forward with profound vision is stark:

KEY POINTS

* Adam had a vision before he encountered the serpent. His relationship with God was guided by faith and purpose.
* There is nothing wrong with knowing what is good and what is evil, but problems arise when we choose disobedience over God's guidance.
* Adam and Eve's nakedness was not a source of shame before their encounter with the serpent. Their vision allowed them to live without fear or condemnation.
* Vision gives hope, while sight is often filled with fear and uncertainty.
* As Christians, we should not walk by sight but by vision and faith in God.
* Vision and sight are always at work in our lives, but we must choose to be led by vision rather than by what we physically see.
* We should examine ourselves and ask: Am I walking by vision or by sight?
* The Christian journey is a journey of vision, faith, and trust in God not merely a journey based on visible evidence.
* It takes someone with a listening ear to hear God's voice. Adam lost his spiritual attentiveness when he listened to the wrong voice.
* Sight depends on evidence, but vision depends on faith and God's promises.
* Those who walk by vision remain focused on God's purpose, even when circumstances appear unfavorable.

CONCLUSION

God calls His people to live by vision and faith rather than by what they see. While sight focuses on present circumstances, vision focuses on God's promises. As Christians, we must develop spiritual ears to hear God's voice and trust Him even when there is no visible evidence, knowing that true vision comes from God and leads us toward His purpose.

WEDNESDAY SERMON UPDATE

WITH: BRO PUSO
MESSAGE: ALLOW GOD TO LEAD YOU

Scripture Reading: Luke 5:1–6

Key Points
* As Christians, we should examine our lives and ask ourselves whether we are truly attentive to God's voice. Are we genuinely hungry and thirsty to hear from Him?
* God has entrusted each of us with a role in His ministry. We must ask ourselves whether we are faithfully serving Him and doing our part in advancing His kingdom.
* We should always make ourselves available for God to use. As believers, we must never be ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
* To hear God's voice clearly, we must be filled with His Word and maintain a close relationship with Him through prayer and obedience.
* We must allow God to use us and avoid relying on our own strength and abilities. Instead, we should draw nearer to Him and depend on His guidance.
* In life, we should not seek to exalt ourselves. Humble yourself before God, and He will lift you up in His perfect time. Come to God just as you are, and allow Him to take control of your life.
* Those who listen to and obey God experience His blessings. God's blessings often extend beyond us and positively affect those around us.
* Even during difficult circumstances, we should maintain a positive outlook and trust that God is working on our behalf.
* Prayer and the Word of God must remain a constant part of our lives. Never underestimate the work God has entrusted to you.
* Through God's Word, we are called to reach those who do not yet know Him. To effectively serve God, we must be led by the Spirit and not by the desires of the flesh.
* God will never put His faithful servants to shame. Serve Him wholeheartedly with every gift and talent He has given you.
* No matter what situation you may face, trust in God. He will fight for you and lead you to victory.
Conclusion
When we allow God to lead our lives, we experience His direction, favor, and blessings. By remaining humble, prayerful, obedient, and available for His service, we position ourselves to be used by God for His glory and for the benefit of others.

SUNDAY SERMON UPDATE

WITH:PASTOR T.NAKEDI

MESSAGE:DIVINE STRENGTH

Scripture References:
* Luke 22:39–45
* Job 6:11–13
* 2 Corinthians 12:7

INTRODUCTION
As human beings, we all experience weakness, struggles, and limitations. Yet God promises to strengthen us during difficult seasons and moments of weakness. He understands our frailty and knows that if we possessed unlimited power, we might become self-reliant and forget our dependence on Him.

Key Lessons on Divine Strength
* God is aware of our weaknesses and uses them to draw us closer to Him.
* Even in times of weakness, we must continue serving God faithfully.
* God's strength is made perfect in our weakness. When our own strength fails, His power sustains us.
* Divine strength teaches us patience, endurance, and complete dependence on God.

What Is Strength?
Strength is:
* The power to endure hardships.
* The ability to persevere through difficult circumstances.
* The courage to keep moving forward despite challenges.
* The capacity to forgive even when it seems undeserved.
True strength is not merely physical power; it is the ability to trust God, obey Him, and remain faithful through every season of life.

The Strength to Forgive
Forgiveness requires strength. It builds character, develops kindness, and reflects the nature of God. A strong believer chooses forgiveness over bitterness and love over resentment.
The Call to Obedience and Sacrifice

God still desires sacrifice and obedience from His people. When God calls us to do something difficult, we should respond in faith.
If God says, “Leave everything and go preach the Gospel,” we must be willing to obey. We should not question God's instructions but trust His wisdom and follow His leading.
Waiting on God's Strength
When your own strength fails, wait upon the Lord. It may take time, but God will renew your strength. Through prayer, God empowers His children to overcome challenges and remain steadfast.
Whatever situation is causing you pain and tears, hold on to God. He sees your struggles, hears your prayers, and will help you in His perfect time.

*Conclusion*
Divine strength is God's power working through our weaknesses. It enables us to endure, forgive, obey, pray, and remain faithful. When we rely on God rather than ourselves, His strength becomes evident in our lives, allowing us to fulfill His purpose with patience, perseverance, and unwavering faith.
But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength. Isaiah 40:31

SUNDAY SERMON UPDATE

‎WITH:PASTOR D.LEKHANE
‎
‎MAIN SCRIPTURE:2 TIMOTHY 2:19-22

‎KEY SUPPORTING SCRIPTURES
‎Leviticus 11:44
‎1Samuel 2:2
‎Matthew 11:27
‎Psalm 97:2
‎Romans 2:13
‎Ephesians 4:30-31
‎
‎
‎
‎MESSAGE:GOD'S UNSHAKABLE FOUNDATION
‎
‎Holiness is the absolute essence and immovable foundation of God's character. It is the triple-repeated description of His nature (Holy, holy, holy) and the standard by which all of His other attributes—like love, justice, and mercy—are perfectly balanced and defined.
‎
‎Paul reassures believers that God's truth and His church are secure, even when some people fall away. He uses the metaphor of a seal with two inscriptions:"The Lord knows those who are his": This highlights God’s sovereign grace and His intimate, personal relationship with genuine believers."Let everyone who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity": This emphasizes human accountability. True believers who claim Christ are expected to distance themselves permanently from sin and hypocrisy.
‎
‎In the church, Paul compares believers to different household items. While gold and silver vessels are used for honorable purposes, vessels of wood and clay are sometimes used for base or dishonorable tasks.
‎
‎THE CAUSE: These represent individuals who indulge in irreverent, ungodly, or sinful behavior rather than truth.
‎
‎THE SOLUTION: A person can transition from dishonor to honor by cleansing themselves of unrighteousness, separating themselves from sin, and dedicating themselves to holy use.
‎
‎NB:True holiness isn't merely rule-following; it is the inward transformation of the heart through a relationship with Christ.
‎while God’s grace guarantees eternal security, Christians must actively and intentionally choose to separate themselves from sin and build a life of active, shared devotion.

WEDNESDAY SERVICE UPDATE

WITH:BRO TYRO

MATTHEW 5:13-16
‎
‎MESSAGE:CALLED TO BE THE LIGHT
‎
‎You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
‎
‎Light cannot be anything other than what it is. It's bright; it dispels darkness; it enables people to see what they are doing. God is light, and since He sent His Holy Spirit to live inside believers, so are we. As his ambassadors on earth, we shine even when we don't know it.
‎
‎Jesus told His followers to "let your light shine before others," calling them to live an active faith, not a passive one. Put your light on its stand. Your circumstances are an opportunity to shine brightly for the Lord and to share God's overcoming truth with those around you. Your family and community can tell what you believe by how you live.

NB:DO NOT LET ANYTHING DIM YOUR LIGHT
