In this episode, Pastor Darrel teaches from Proverbs 1:7, which says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.” The fear of God is recognising that God is not only a loving Father but also a holy Father who is worthy of our reverence, honour and obedience. It is having a heart that respects His Word, values His instructions and is willing to be corrected by Him. The question is not only whether we love God, but whether our lives demonstrate that we truly reverence Him. God is a loving Father, but He is also a holy Father.

Scripture: Proverbs 9:10 In this message, Pastor Darrel teaches that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of true wisdom. While many people desire God’s blessings, promotion, financial breakthroughs, open doors, and answered prayers, true wisdom begins with honouring God and obeying His Word. Knowledge, wealth, and position mean little without godly character and integrity. Before asking God to change our circumstances, we must allow Him to transform our hearts and shape the way we live. The fear of the Lord calls us to live with reverence, holiness, and obedience, honouring God not only when others are watching but also when nobody sees us. Rather than judging others, we must allow God’s Word to examine our own hearts and lead us into a life that pleases Him. Disclaimer: We do not own the rights to any music featured in this episode.

In this episode, Pastor Darrel teaches from Exodus 3:2–6 that purpose requires an encounter with God. When we respect and respond to God’s Word, He begins to speak and reveal His purpose to us. An encounter with God should move us from simply sitting and observing to making a decision to respond, obey, and do what needs to be done. Pastor Darrel also teaches that God may call us before we feel qualified. We may not feel ready or capable, but God’s call is not dependent on our feelings or qualifications. When we stop, take notice, and respond to His voice, God can begin to use us for His purpose. Disclaimer: We do not own the rights to any music featured in this episode.

In this episode, Pastor Darrel teaches that having a heart like David begins with genuinely seeking after God. Spending time with God should not be viewed as a religious duty, but as a relationship and a desire to know Him. Although God saw both David’s public life and his secret struggles, He still declared, “I have found a man after My own heart.” David understood that God is just, and he made a conscious choice to serve God and turn away from sin. David experienced fear, but his faith and trust in God were greater than his fear. When David faced Goliath, it was the part of him that believed and trusted God that stepped forward. A heart after God does not mean the absence of fear it means choosing to trust God despite the fear.

In this episode, Pastor Darrel teaches practical ways to develop a heart like David. David consistently sought God for direction and made seeking God a lifestyle, not something he did occasionally. A heart after God is a heart that continually desires His guidance, presence, and will. Pastor Darrel highlights two important qualities: a heart that seeks God and a heart that trusts God. Like David, we must learn to seek God before making decisions and trust Him even when we cannot see the outcome.

In this episode, Pastor Darrel teaches from Acts 13:22 and 1 Samuel 13:14 about what it means to have a heart like David. David’s heart was shaped through his relationship with God. The closer we walk with God, the more He reshapes our hearts, attitudes, desires, and decisions. Our choices matter because every decision contributes to the kind of heart we develop. Like David, we are called to become people who seek God’s heart and are willing to do His will. Disclaimer: We do not own the rights to any music featured in this episode.

In this episode, Pastor Darrel teaches from John 12:24, reminding us that every harvest begins with a seed that is willing to die. Fruitfulness requires sacrifice. The greatest enemy of fruitfulness is self-centred living. To bear lasting fruit, we must be willing to surrender our own desires and live for God’s purposes. Fruitfulness also requires faithfulness. We must continue serving, obeying, and trusting God even when we cannot yet see the results. What is planted in faith and nurtured through faithfulness will produce a harvest in God’s timing.
