Sunday Message:


Good morning/afternoon/evening, brothers and sisters in Christ!


Today, we gather together to reflect on the power of gratitude. Throughout the Bible, we encounter numerous verses and stories that emphasize the importance of giving thanks and being grateful in all circumstances. As we study God's Word, let us open our hearts and minds to understand the transformative power of gratitude in our lives.


Firstly, Psalm 100:4-5 reminds us to enter God's presence with thanksgiving and praise. We are called to express gratitude for His goodness, enduring love, and faithfulness that extends across all generations. By cultivating a grateful attitude, we invite His peace and joy into our lives.


Next, Colossians 3:15 encourages us to let the peace of Christ rule in our hearts and to be thankful. When we choose gratitude, we align ourselves with God's will, fostering unity and peace within the body of Christ. Gratitude has the power to

How to Discern "Monitoring" Spirits and Overcome Them as Believers

BY PRINCE EUDES What exactly are Monitoring Spirits? Well, they are spiritual beings that operate in the supernatural realm, with the not-so-friendly task of observing and monitoring the lives of individuals. Their main goal is to gather information, take notes, and report back to the forces of darkness, seeking any vulnerability they can exploit in our lives. It's like they're running some kind of spiritual surveillance mission! Now, you might be wondering if this idea of monitoring spirits is biblical. You bet it is! The Bible sheds light on these malevolent beings in various passages, and it's essential to understand what it says about them to be equipped to deal with their influence. In the book of Job [ Job 1:7 ], we find an intriguing scene where the sons of God come to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also comes among them. The Lord Himself asks Satan if he has considered His faithful servant Job. This implies that there are spiritual beings constantly o...

Do All Things Work Together For Good?

Do All Things Work Together For Good? By Prince Eudes Do All Things Work Together For Good? Many Christians would instantly say "Yes!" And a quick look at Romans 8:28 in many Bible translations seems to confirm their answer. But is that what Romans 8:28 really means? ROMANS 8:28 NASB 28 And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. ROMANS 8:28 NIV 28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love⁶  him, who have been called according to his purpose. While several translations can give us a different view on this (like both of those above), it is not necessary for us to judge translations or learn the meaning of Greek words to realize some basic facts. First, if everything that happened was good for us, then God would never tell us to resist or refrain from anything. (And He does!) Therefore, everything is not God's will for us. Neither can we consider every...

God Rules in Your Circumstances

God Rules in Your Circumstances God's light often shines brightest through us in our darkest moments. November 12, 2023 Philippians 1:12-20 If you could change your present circumstances, would you? Most of us would say yes. Even if we’re experiencing relatively peaceful and comfortable conditions, we can always imagine a better life. And those of us enduring difficult, painful, or trying situations long to see the burden lifted. But as everyone knows, there are some circumstances over which we have no control. We can’t maneuver our way out, so our only option is to go through them. As redeemed children of God, however, it’s important to remember this: We are exactly where God wants us, because His sovereignty rules over all our situations at all times. Let’s look at Paul. He was sitting in a Roman prison, chained to a guard after a fruitful ministry of sharing the gospel. But even though the Lord brought him into difficult circumstances, His work in and through Paul didn’t stop. A...
