This sermon by Pastor Alex McDougald, titled "Evidence of walking in the flesh and not the spirit of God," addresses the struggle of living in a world that often separates individuals from God through worldly pursuits. The core message emphasizes that seeking fulfillment through worldly standards—such as material possessions or societal definitions of beauty—leaves people feeling empty and unsatisfied.1

Key points include:
The Conflict: The sermon highlights the ongoing spiritual war designed to distract from the Father. It explains that the flesh and the Spirit are in direct opposition, preventing people from living in alignment with God.1
The Works of the Flesh: Drawing from Galatians 5:13-26, the pastor contrasts the "works of the flesh" (such as jealousy, anger, and selfishness) with the "fruit of the Spirit" (such as love, joy, peace, and self-control). Those who prioritize the flesh will not inherit the kingdom of God.1
Perilous Times: Referencing 2 Timothy 3:1-7, the sermon warns about the characteristics of those in the "last days" who are lovers of self and pleasure rather than God. It cautions that some may have an appearance of godliness but deny its power, remaining trapped by their own lusts and unable to reach the truth.1
The Call to Action: Pastor McDougald urges the congregation to take honest inventory of their own lives and rely on God for the strength to reject worldly influence. He challenges the church to stop following the world's lead and instead act as a guiding light, demonstrating the path to God through love and example.1

This sermon "The battle we can’t see," delivered by Pastor Alex McDougald, emphasizes the reality of an ongoing, unseen spiritual war that seeks to separate believers from God and keep them unaware of their inherent power.1

Key takeaways from the message include:
Recognizing the Battle: Believers often act as if the physical world is all that exists, treating God like a "genie" rather than acknowledging the spiritual warfare constantly waged against their minds.1
The Nature of the Enemy: Like the trial Jesus warned Peter about in Luke 22:31-32, the enemy seeks to "sift" believers, using worldly influences—such as the pursuit of pleasure—to separate them from God.1
Flesh vs. Spirit: Drawing from James 4:1-10, the pastor explains that human conflicts often stem from chasing fleshly desires rather than spiritual discipline. The true battle is internal, between the flesh and the spirit.1
The Path to Victory: To combat this, believers must submit to God, resist the devil, and draw near to the Father. This involves choosing forgiveness, love, and empathy over worldly patterns of revenge and pettiness, recognizing that these godly traits actually require more strength.1
The sermon concludes with a call to action: believers must stop letting the enemy trick them into believing there is no battle and instead actively participate in the fight by living according to God's way.1

This sermon, titled "Acknowledging the spiritual world," by Pastor Alex McDougald of OOA P&V Outreach Ministry, focuses on the need for believers to truly recognize and acknowledge the spiritual battle taking place.1

Key points of the sermon:
Disbelief in the Spiritual World: The main problem is that people do not fully believe in the spiritual world, only enough to pray, but not enough to recognize the battle working to draw them away from God.1
The Fallen Host: The focus should not just be on Satan, but on the other angels who fell with him (a third of the stars of heaven, based on Revelation 12:3-4). It is suggested that these fallen angels are the "other gods" worshipped worldwide, now operating as demons seeking worship.1
Modern Distraction: The enemy is now using media to distract and shape our thinking, urging people to follow it as a god. The excessive time spent in front of screens, consuming "brain rott videos," is seen as ignoring the enemy's open attacks.1
Call to Action: The message is a call to wake up, take back one's mind and spirit, and live life more abundantly. This involves:1
Spending more time reading the word and in prayer.1
Asking God to remove the addiction to being constantly entertained.1
Casting down the enemy's attacks and daring to go alone against the current.1

This sermon, "God knows your heart," challenges the common use of that phrase as a defense for negative behavior, suggesting it may be a distraction because while God does know our hearts, the question is whether we truly know our own.1

Key points of the sermon:
Judge by Actions, Not Words: The message emphasizes the importance of judging others—and ourselves—not by what is said, but by the "fruit they bear" (their actions), citing Matthew 7:15-20. Just as good trees bear good fruit, outward actions reveal inward intentions.1
The Deceitful Heart: The sermon highlights Jeremiah 17:9, stating that the heart is "deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked". This wickedness remains true if we do not allow God's word and spirit to change our hearts.1
Beyond Surface-Level Deeds: God looks beyond visible actions, such as prophesying or performing miracles, to the true motivation behind them—whether they are done out of love or to be seen. Matthew 7:21-23 is used to show that even those who do great things may be told, "I never knew you," if their heart was not right.1
The Need for Transformation: The sermon concludes that since we cannot fool God and do not truly know our own hearts, we must allow the word and God's Spirit to change us. This transformation involves receiving a "new heart" and a "new spirit" (Ezekiel 36:25-28) and being "transformed by the renewing of your mind" (Romans 12:1-2). We must let go of worldly teachings and act as the Father teaches.1
