I know, it can be difficult… As a Pastor and leader, it’s our responsibility to be a voice of encouragement. Many of us (pastors) have a knack in seeing and sensing what God is doing and where He’s taking us. We speak it, proclaim it, profess it and declare it to...
GIVE v/s GET
I’ve been challenged today between my getting and my giving. In our lives, we’ll always give more precedence to one above the other. The question we should ask ourselves daily, as believers, is, “Am I giving more than I’m getting?” Throughout the day, it’s natural...
I Love My Prayer Team!
“I can literally sense the power of prayer working on my behalf.” This is what I said to an individual last week regarding our prayer team. I felt it necessary to recruit about twenty-five people in the beginning of the year to form a prayer team. These people are...
Go Ahead…CRY!
These last few days I’ve been studying paradoxes throughout the Bible. We’ll be teaching a four-part series on paradoxes in the months to come. Can’t wait! I love how paradoxes work in the Kingdom. When engaged, paradoxes cause us to flow in God’s river and not the...
Shock Jock Jesus
The message of the Kingdom of God has always been and will forever be difficult to swallow. The ways of God’s kingdom are contrary and opposing to our nature. That’s why Jesus had to be the greatest “shock jock” of all time. A shock jock is generally a speaker whose...
Managing Paradoxes
For me, the most difficult thing to do in ministry is managing the paradoxes of the kingdom. A paradox is an illogical contradiction. It’s a statement, proposition, or situation that seems to be absurd or incongruous. The Bible is full of them. The reason being...
Prerequisites for Requisites
There are many requisites in life that require prerequisites. A requisite is a necessary and appropriate component for a specific purpose. For example, walking is a requisite for living. Although many people have lived successful lives without walking, their...
Find the Frequency
I sense an excitement in the air over Impact Church. People are awakening and God's frequency is being detected, as an old radio catches a clear and loud frequency. I've realized that as long as we stay hungry and thirsty for Him, we'll always have access to Him. ...
Seeing the Difference
I know God is constantly working in us and all of us are a work in progress. Knowing that and remembering it, becomes our encouragement when we face tough situations. But I believe that seeing God work in others is equally or greater in encouragement. In us, the...
Called an Audible!
It appears that this Sunday I’m calling an audible. And for those that don’t understand what that means, allow me to explain. "Calling an audible" is a sport term that means changing the play on the spot. Our plan or “play” was to begin an in-depth series on...
