Bishop Smith teaches on 'kingdom order' and the health of the church, urging believers to submit to God's will rather than personal preference, to pursue holiness and functional discipleship, and to embrace corporate unity during a pastoral transition. He calls the congregation to seek God in prayer, steward resources faithfully, and remain committed to the church's destiny.
“You're either hot or you're cold...you cannot be lukewarm the Bible says God will spill you out (spue you out) of his mouth.”
Sunday worship centered on Revelation 22 (vv.1–21) with a call to repentance and readiness for Christ’s imminent return. The service featured extended worship, scripture readings (Revelation 22, offering text from Malachi 3), pastoral acknowledgments, special music, encouragements to holiness and renewed minds, an invitation to the altar, and practical reminders about tithes and church ministry.
“The Lord says he spits out those who are lukewarm — don't play with sin or the call.”
A worship-centered New Year service calling the Generation One community to pursue a fresh work of God in their hearts. Leaders led extended worship, celebrated the ministry's fifth anniversary, taught on faithful stewardship (tithing as the first 10% of increase) and seeking God's kingdom first, then delivered a pastoral call to leave behind former habits, wilderness wandering, and desert dryness so God can make 'roads in the wilderness' and pour 'rivers in the desert.' The message culminated in an altar invitation to receive Jesus, renew commitment, and step into the new season.
“We are fat, we are rich, and have need of nothing; and the Lord said, but you are broke, you are poor.”
Bishop Smith preached on the importance of the soul, calling believers to a serious, intentional faith rooted in prayer, obedience, and stewardship. Using Jesus' confrontation with Peter and His agony in Gethsemane as the centerpiece, he warned about Satan's deception and spiritual forces, urged consistent giving and service, invited participation in church events and leadership, and closed with an urgent call to salvation and a personal Gethsemane experience of prayer and surrender.
Charles Spurgeon
THE DEALINGS OF GOD towards the sons of men have always puzzled the wise men of the earth who have tried to understand them. Apart from the revelation of God the dealings of Jehovah towards his creatures in this world seem to be utterly inexplicable. Who…

The preacher urged listeners to recognize their calling, stop consulting only 'flesh and blood,' and respond with urgency supported by community.
“behold I stand at the door knocking if any man should open the door and accept me in I will come in and I will sup with him”
Pastor Willie Lee Young Jr. preaches that the gospel alone is sufficient—ready to be proclaimed, never to be ashamed of, and powerful to save—calling the congregation to trust Jesus' finished work, pursue holiness, invite missing members, and respond in salvation, restored fellowship, or membership.
“jesus is knocking on the door of your heart”
Pastor Lonnell Williams preaches from John 4 (the woman at the well) to call believers back to urgent, honest evangelism: drop the jar of shame, testify from your real story, and simply say 'Come see'—you don't have to be perfect or close the deal, just point people to Jesus.
“Behold, I stand at the door and knock, and if any man should open the door, I will come in and I will sup with him.”
Pastor Willie L. Young Jr. preaches from Hebrews 12 urging the congregation to ‘Focus on Jesus’ — Jesus is the object, author and finisher of our faith — so believers can endure trials, resist returning to old ways, and run the race with perseverance. The service included church announcements, membership recognition, communion, prayers, and invitations for salvation, membership, and restored fellowship.
