"If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed." From John 8:31, Bishop Dale C. Bronner reminds us that getting started is only half the battle; the other half is staying on course until you finish. God wouldn't have to tell us to continue if we weren't going to be tempted to quit. Through a mother who lost five pregnancies and went on to have six children, Winston Churchill's advice about barking dogs, a two-minute phone call that brought a stranger joy all week, and nine biblical moments to keep going, this message calls us to remember our why, find someone to help, and faithfully advance what God has entrusted to us until we can entrust it to the next generation. You'll learn: Why "continue in my word" means both the written Word and the proceeding word of God How to carry on through loss, delay, and seasons of darkness The difference between being tired and being uninspired Four ways to get moving again: remember your why, reconnect to rituals, restore your anchors, rebuild your structure Why helping someone else is part of your own healing Nine times to carry on, from Gideon's exhausted 300 to Peter's restoration Why the highest form of carrying on is raising people who can carry on without you 📖 Scriptures referenced: John 8:28-32 · Judges 8:4 · Joshua 1:2 · Philippians 3:14 · Nehemiah 6:3 · Galatians 6:9 · 1 Corinthians 15:58 · John 21:17 · 2 Timothy 2:2 · 2 Timothy 4:7 · John 19:30 · Matthew 28:19 🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/0M1KyAESxtQ 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages from Word of Faith. 📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for daily encouragement. #CarryOn #WordOfFaith #SundayService #Sermon

"But God remembered Noah... and he sent a wind to blow across the earth, and the floodwaters began to recede." From Genesis 8:1, Bishop Dale C. Bronner shows how God uses wind to move His people from judgment into new beginnings. Wind is more than weather. It's a vehicle that opened a road through the Red Sea, carried quail into the camp, blew the locusts out of Egypt, turned Jonah around, and announced the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. Through a sixth-grade poem, an airplane that needed a contrary wind to take off, and the valley of dry bones, this message calls us to set our sails, steward the breath in our lungs, and prophesy to the wind over every dead situation, as God sends winds of holiness, harmony, and harvest. You'll learn: How God turns obstacles into roadways and storms into provision Why contrary winds (and hard people) can give you lift What it means to sow the wind and reap the whirlwind (Hosea 8:7) Why God's judgment comes to correct you, not destroy you How out of every void comes a voice, and why death and life are in the power of the tongue Why some situations need you to prophesy to the wind The three winds God is sending: holiness, harmony, and harvest 📖 Scriptures referenced: Genesis 8:1 · Exodus 14:21 · Numbers 11:31 · Exodus 10:13, 19 · Hosea 8:7 · Jonah 1:4 · John 3:8 · John 20:20-22 · Genesis 2:7 · Proverbs 18:21 · Acts 2:2-4 (also Acts 27, Ezekiel 37, John 17) 🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/JsEn1low_nw 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages from Word of Faith. 📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for daily encouragement. #SendTheWind #WordOfFaith #SundayService #Sermon

Are your words salty or spicy? From Colossians 4:2-6, Bishop Dale C. Bronner unpacks Paul's call to let our speech always be gracious and seasoned with salt. Our culture says "salty" means bitter and "spicy" means bold and provocative, but Scripture paints a richer picture: salt that flavors, preserves, seals covenant, and brings peace. Through a shoe salesman, a great-uncle in "a chair of applied electronics," the THINK test, and Jesus' encounters with the woman caught in adultery and Zacchaeus, this message shows how the way we speak, work, and serve the truth can open hearts to the gospel. You'll learn: Why it's often not what you say, but how you say it, that offends How to put your words through the THINK test before you speak Seven nuances of the biblical salt metaphor, and what they mean for your speech Why you must separate the person from the demon, and why you were never anointed to negotiate with demons How complaining gives away your power (Philippians 2:14-16) Why your work ethic is a gospel witness to co-workers who never read the Bible How Jesus served hard truth seasoned with grace to people at their worst moments 📖 Scriptures referenced: Colossians 4:2-6 · Colossians 4:6 (AMP) · Mark 9:50 · Matthew 16:22-23 (NLT) · Philippians 2:14-16 (NLT) · Colossians 3:23 🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/o62Oc4m1zGQ 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages from Word of Faith. 📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for daily encouragement. #SaltyOrSpicy #WordOfFaith #SundayService #Sermon

When God seems to be taking things away, He may be making room to add something better. Starting with Rachel's prayer in Genesis 30 and the birth of a son whose name means "add," Bishop Dale C. Bronner traces the striking parallels between Joseph and Jesus. Joseph went from the pit to slavery to prison before reaching the palace. Along the way, Bishop Bronner shows how God's additions hide inside life's subtractions, why suffering has an assignment, and how your own life can give the people around you glimpses of God's glory. You'll learn: Why God remembers every promise, both yours to Him and His to you How "the math of God" subtracts before it adds and multiplies What 1 Peter 5:10 says about the order of suffering and restoration How to survive the "Jesus dip," where you go down before you come up Why peace is a perspective, and how Paul found joy in a prison cell How Joseph's losses became administrative experience, strategic relationships, and the preservation of nations Six ways Joseph's life foreshadows Jesus, from the beloved son to being sold for silver 📖 Scriptures referenced: Genesis 30:22-24 (NKJV) · 1 Peter 5:10 · Hebrews 6:10-12 · John 12:24 · Ephesians 3:20 · Genesis 37:3 · Genesis 37:4 · Matthew 3:17 · John 1:11 · Genesis 37:28 🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/0ck5PIL2j30 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages from Word of Faith. 📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for daily encouragement. #GlimpsesOfGlory #WordOfFaith #SundayService #Sermon

What someone meant to harm you, God can use to heal you and the people around you. Starting from Joseph's words to his brothers in Genesis 50 ("You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good"), Bishop Dale C. Bronner shows how poison and cure often sit side by side, with the dose making the difference. He draws on the cyanide at the core of an apple, Botox, viper venom, and the law's limit of forty lashes to show why balance is the key to life, why isolation distorts your view of reality, and why God may be asking one question: can He trust you with trouble? You'll learn: Why God showed Joseph the palace but never the pit or the prison How to "eat around the poison" in the people and situations in your life Why God put limits on punishment, and what that says about correction versus destruction How Agur's prayer for "neither poverty nor riches" applies to a culture of extremes What Elijah's breakdown teaches about the difference between being alone and being disconnected How Fanny Crosby's blindness became the source of nearly nine thousand hymns Why unforgiveness is poison you drink yourself, and how your testimony spreads the cure 📖 Scriptures referenced: Genesis 50:18-20 (NLT) · 2 Corinthians 11:24 · Deuteronomy 25:2-3 · Philippians 4:5 · Proverbs 25:16 · Proverbs 30:7-9 (NLT) · 1 Kings 19:4 · 1 Kings 19:10 · 1 Kings 19:18 🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/BZ16RAeiyiU 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages from Word of Faith. 📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for daily encouragement. #WhenPoisonBecomesMedicine #WordOfFaith #SundayService #Sermon

You must either slow down, or you'll break down." Drawing from Nehemiah's overwhelming, high-pressure life as both the king's cupbearer and the leader rebuilding Jerusalem's walls, Bishop Dale C. Bronner unpacks statio — the ancient practice of the holy pause — and why building brief moments of stillness into your busiest days isn't a luxury, it's what keeps you from burning out, missing God, and mistaking a divine interruption for an inconvenience. You'll learn: Three postures of prayer that fit into an overcrowded life: praying as you go, as you know, and as you sow What statio is, where the practice comes from, and how to use it between life's natural transitions Why there's a space between stimulus and response — and how to use that space instead of skipping it Seven specific things that happen inside a real pause, from renewed strength to sharpened discernment How to recognize when what looks like an interruption is actually a divine appointment Why your worth was never tied to what you produce 📖 Scriptures referenced: Nehemiah 5:14-19 (NLT) · Nehemiah 1:4 · Matthew 9:37-38 · John 11:40-43 · Matthew 12:28 · John 10:10 🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/NuMBVbOpPdM 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages from Word of Faith. 📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for daily encouragement. #ThePowerOfAPause #WordOfFaith #SundayService #Sermon

Go with the strength you have and rescue Israel from the Midianites. I am sending you" (Judges 6:14, NLT). In this message, Bishop Dale C. Bronner walks through God's call to Gideon — the youngest in his family, from the weakest clan — to show that your size was never the qualification for what God has called you to do. From Gideon's army being cut from 32,000 to 300, to a teenage David facing Goliath with only a slingshot, to Vincent van Gogh's letter written after five years of failure, this message is a reminder that your willingness to trust God, not your resources or resume, determines your impact. You are big enough. You'll learn: Why God intentionally reduces your resources before He uses you How to tell the difference between people who are truly with you and people who just say they are Why the people closest to you need to understand the "language of your heart" Why pruning is preparation, not punishment How to start — and stay faithful — in a season of small beginnings 📖 Scriptures referenced: Judges 6:14-16 (NLT) · Judges 7:2 · 1 Samuel 14:6-12 · Amos 3:3 (MSG) · Zechariah 4:10 · Luke 16:10-12 · John 15:1-2 · Jeremiah 1:6-7 🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/8Fn-1CftDeU

When Jesus turned to two of John's disciples and asked, "What do you want?" (John 1:35-38), it became the question His ministry returns to again and again. In this message, we look at how God's questions throughout Scripture — to Adam, Cain, Moses, Hagar, Jacob, Elijah, Isaiah, and Ezekiel, and eventually blind Bartimaeus and the ambitious disciples James and John — were never about giving God information. They were about exposing what we actually want, because genuine spiritual transformation doesn't begin with what we believe, but with what we want, and pain has a way of creating clarity about what matters most. You'll learn: • Why God's questions in Scripture are never about His need for information, but about awakening ours • Why chemistry and comfort aren't reliable guides for the decisions that shape your future • What blind Bartimaeus's instant answer — "I want to see" — teaches about pain, clarity, and naming what you want from God • Why "you become what you behold" and how to guard what informs you • How to move from a general word (logos) to the specific word God speaks into your exact moment (rhema) 📖 Scriptures referenced: John 1:35-38 (NLT) · Mark 10:46-51 · Mark 10:35-40 · 2 Corinthians 3:18 · Romans 1:25 · Psalm 42:1-2 · Philippians 3:8-11 · Proverbs 3:5-6 · Romans 10:17 🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/3efLvplaRDA 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages from Word of Faith. 📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for daily encouragement. #TheConnectingQuestion #WordOfFaith #SundayService #Sermon

"God gets the last word" — no matter how chaotic the headlines get, how deep the hurt runs, or how final a situation looks, God is never caught off guard, and He always has the final say. In this message, Bishop Dale C. Bronner opens Matthew 24 to correct a common misunderstanding about Christ's return, walks through Romans 8:28's real meaning using a pound cake illustration, and traces the stories of Naomi, Job, Mary Magdalene, and the Apostle Paul to show that a hard chapter is never the final one. The message closes with the story of a painting titled "Checkmate," and the reminder that the King always has one more move. You'll learn: Why Jesus's return is not a secret rescue mission, but a triumphant return as King of Kings What Romans 8:28 actually promises — and what it doesn't The enemy's real strategy: getting you to stop bothering before he ever gets you to stop believing Why your last mistake, failure, or hard season doesn't get to define you How God meets people exactly where they are, with no cleanup required first 📖 Scriptures referenced: Matthew 24:3-14 (NLT) · Revelation 19:6-9 · Joel 2:28-32 · Romans 8:28 · Nehemiah 4:14 · Psalm 119:71 · Ecclesiastes 7:8 · 1 Timothy 1:12-16 (Phillips) · Job 42:12 · Luke 8:1-2 · 1 John 3:2 (Phillips) 🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/VXn_PSaDMso 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages from Word of Faith. 📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for daily encouragement. #GodGetsTheLastWord #WordOfFaith #SundayService #Sermon

The Bridge I Timothy 2:1-6 ERV "Man was too sinful to make contact with God, and God was too holy to have interaction with man — so Jesus became the bridge." In this message, Bishop Dale C. Bronner unpacks 1 Timothy 2:1–6 and the life of Andrew, the "first called" apostle, to show what it means to be a bridge — someone who connects people to Jesus even when no one else notices. From Andrew's overlooked faithfulness to David's fifteen-year wait between anointing and crown, to the way God intentionally leaves gaps in our lives to keep us dependent on Him, this message is a call to be quick to follow Jesus, intentional about bringing others to Him, and faithful even without the spotlight. You'll learn: Why Jesus is described as the one mediator between God and man, and what that means practically The story of Andrew — an uneducated fisherman from a cursed city who became the "first called" apostle Why a change of name (Simon to Peter) represents a change of identity How God works through unresolved gaps in our lives to build humility and dependence on Him Why sharing your own story is the fastest bridge between two hearts ("Operation Andrew") 📖 Scriptures referenced: 1 Timothy 2:1–6 · John 1:35–42 · John 12:20–22 · 1 Samuel 22:1–2 · Luke 2:36–37 · Philemon 🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/TKIU2nVOmZE 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages from Word of Faith. 📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for daily encouragement. #TheBridge #WordOfFaith #SundayService #Sermon

Sunday, July 19, 2026 I Proverbs 16:9 AMP "A man's mind plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps" (Proverbs 16:9). In this message, "Keep Stepping," we look at what it means to move forward in faith even without full clarity — because divine appointments aren't scheduled on a calendar, they're found on the journey. God can't steer a parked car; He directs the steps of those who are willing to move. You'll learn: Why divine appointments are found on the journey, not the calendar What it means for God to "establish" your steps — stability, strength, purpose, and lasting value Why you cannot rush God, and why patience is a companion for faith How the ten lepers were healed "as they went," not before they moved Why being established doesn't mean never failing — failure is never final 📖 Scriptures referenced: Proverbs 16:9 (Amplified) · Proverbs 3:5–6 · Psalm 37:23–24 · Hebrews 10:36 · Isaiah 43:16–19 · Luke 17:11–19 · 1 Kings 17 🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/cfQYmlC3dqY 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages from Word of Faith. 📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for daily encouragement. #KeepStepping #WordOfFaith #SundayService #Sermon

July, 12, 2026 I I Kings 18:30-35 NLT Before Elijah ever called down fire on Mount Carmel, he did something nobody was watching for — he repaired the altar that had been torn down. In this message, "Buildup Before Breakthrough," we look at what happens before the miracle: the sacrifice, the prayer, and the repair work that make room for God to show up in ways only He can explain. You'll learn: Why anointing requires an altar, not just a podium Why God reduces our numbers to show Himself strong What Elijah, Enoch, and Noah had in common — presence over perfection Why culture is created by what you celebrate and what you tolerate How to "dig the trench" and make room for a miracle you can't explain 📖 Scriptures referenced: 1 Kings 18:19, 30–35 (NLT) · 1 Kings 17:1 · Genesis 5:23–24 · Genesis 6:9 · Exodus 3:10–12 · Exodus 4:10 · Exodus 33 · 1 Corinthians 3:11 · 2 Corinthians 12:9 · 2 Kings 3:16–17 🎥 Watch here: https://youtu.be/k6vG6Q2twiw 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages from Word of Faith. #BuildupBeforeBreakthrough #WordOfFaith #SundayService #Sermon

Facing the Giants | Sunday Service, July 5, 2026 Description: Two spies explored the same land and came back with two completely different reports. The land didn't change — their perspective did. In this message, "Facing the Giants," we unpack the difference between perspective and perception, why your words don't just describe your life but assign it, and how to respond when the giants in your life (health, finances, relationships, fear) show up. You'll learn: The difference between perspective and perception (Numbers 13) Why your words assign more than they describe (Proverbs 18:21) Why Sunday is not Friday — hope after a hard season The cow vs. buffalo strategy for facing a storm head-on 8 practical wisdom nuggets for facing any giant in your life 📖 Scriptures referenced: Numbers 13:27–28, 31–33 (NLT) · Proverbs 18:21 · Isaiah 43:1–3 · 1 Samuel 17:48 · Deuteronomy 28 🔔 Subscribe for weekly messages from Word of Faith. 📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for daily encouragement. #FacingTheGiants #WordOfFaith #SundayService #Sermon

Sages for the Ages | 2 Kings 5 Happy Father's Day. This week's message is for every person who has — or has had — an old man in their life worth celebrating. And for those who are becoming that person for someone else. We open in 1 Samuel 2:31, where God delivers a sobering warning to Eli the priest: there will no longer be an old man in your house. Eli was good in many ways, but he was passive where he needed to be decisive. His failure to correct his sons set off a chain reaction that God promised would echo for generations. The message of today isn't condemnation — it's a celebration. A celebration of the fathers, the grandfathers, the elders, the sages who stayed. Who may not have had much to say, but when they spoke, you listened. Who handed you a silver dollar from a jar when you were a child, and you never forgot it. Who told you things you didn't understand then, but needed desperately later — because wisdom is something you deposit in you before you need it. We trace the consequences of rejecting elder wisdom through the life of King Rehoboam, who stood at a crossroads with Solomon's own counselors on one side and his college friends on the other — and chose wrong. What followed divided a kingdom. And we close with this: you cannot live right unless you love right. The world needs leaders who carry the wisdom of God, the love of Jesus, and the power of the Holy Spirit. Today's Scripture: 1 Samuel 2:31 | Deuteronomy 32:7 | 1 Kings 12:6–14 | Ecclesiastes 7:12 | Psalm 90:12

Transformed Through Trouble I Psalm 4:1 KJV "Thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress." — Psalm 4:1 David's prayer in Psalm 4 reveals something counterintuitive and transformative: the very place that felt most constricted — the narrow, backed-in-a-corner place — was the place where God did His greatest work of expansion. In this episode of the Word of Faith Cathedral Podcast, Bishop Dale Bronner unpacks the Hebrew behind Psalm 4:1 (tsarar = distress; raba = enlarged) and builds a message around a principle that changes everything: God uses trouble as a tool of transformation, not destruction. Through the lens of Paul's extraordinary résumé of suffering, James 1:2's call to "consider it joy," the friction principle, and the story of Hagar's wilderness encounters — Bishop Bronner shows us how to reframe every hard season not as a sign of abandonment, but as an invitation to grow. He also unpacks the egg principle — the idea that God doesn't crack you open from the outside. He enlarges you until you break out from the inside. And he calls every listener to consider whether they are positioned to be the one person who shifts the generational destiny of their entire family. This episode is for you if: You're in a constricted, tight, "I can't see a way out" season You've been wondering why things got harder after you committed to God, not easier You want to understand what "consider it joy" (James 1:2) actually means You feel unseen, overlooked, or pushed to the margins You sense you might be the one God wants to use to break something open in your family Key Takeaways: Tsarar (distress) and raba (enlarged) — the paradox of Psalm 4:1 Nothing grows in the comfort zone but mediocrity "Consider it joy" means think differently, not feel differently Friction creates fire — passion always includes pain Everything that comes into your life is either God-sent or God-used El Roi: you are seen by the God who sees you God doesn't break you out — He enlarges you until you break out from the inside "Don't leave your trouble without the glory — there is glory in your story" If you didn't come from a victorious family — let one come from you Scriptures: Psalm 4:1 | Psalm 119:71 | Psalm 34:19 | Romans 8:18, 28 | James 1:2 | 2 Corinthians 11:25–28 | Genesis 16:1–13 | Genesis 21:14–18 | Matthew 23:12 🎧 Subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with someone who's in a hard season and needs to know God is still at work.
