A powerful message by Pastor Vic Deodat on how the Lord came to clear the way for us to have life and have it more abundantly. How the Holy Spirit gives us the power to overcome Satan, his demons and the things of this world in order to have an abundant life. But, we fail to activate this power by not surrendering to the Lord in continual prayers, yielding to Him and His ways, while turning away from the ways of the flesh.  The Holy Spirit lives in us, but are we living in Him?  He touches on the gifts of the Spirit and the Fruit of the Spirit of God, and explains why it is important to exercise the gift of tongues. He challenges us to daily turn from the flesh and surrender to the Lord in prayer, as His spirit overflows in us and through us. Let God arise, and his gifts be released in us as we grow in the Fruit of His Spirit. Let our lives be centered on Jesus, on the Holy Spirit, on the Word of God, and NOT what is out there.  Where is your soul? Your mind? Your Heart? Your Will? And, your Emotions? February 18, 2024

When the Holy Spirit moves in a Church, it will change. Dr.  Philip explains the meaning and purpose of the day of Pentecost, and how it ties the old Jewish traditions with the new Christian move of God.  The Lord expects us to be holy, and through Jesus we will be able to see him, as be begin to grow in the likeness of God. Everyone is sealed with the Holy Spirit when you are saved, but this does not mean you are filled with the Holy Spirit. For example, on the first drop of water, a pitcher has water, but it is not filled with the water. You have to crave the Holy Spirit until God pours it out into your life, until you are overflowing, when the language of tongues pours out of you. Wait and pray, craving this infilling and this evidence. The disciples waited for 10 days. You have to have the earnest desire to receive this gift.

The book of Acts is a transitionary book, linking the four gospels with the letters to the various churches, and it provides a picture of how Christianity started. With this study of Acts, chapter 1, Pastor Sunny demonstrates the need for us to yearn for the power of the Holy Spirit in order to be witnesses for Christ.  Message on February 4, 2024.

In this sermon you'll discover how Jesus declared to his disciples that they are His friends which is why he shared the things of God in his heart with them.  Secondly, after His resurrection, Jesus spoke of the Disciples as his brothers. Later the Apostle Paul understood and explained how we are part of the household of God.  We pray, our Father in Heaven...

Why did God create this dichotomy?  On one hand you cannot build a temple for God, but on the other hand, you are the temple of God. The greatest miracle is to take a sinner, make him a holy person and put him back into the world as a growing example of the holiness of God, as a temple of God.  By Sr. Pastor, Dr. Sunny Philip on January 21, 2024
