“You come by hearing the word of God; believe what you've heard.”
The preacher taught that sometimes the most faithful action is to stop striving, relax your grip, and let God work. By practicing 'active waiting'—trusting God's sovereignty rather than reacting in fear or control—we gain peace amid chaos and allow God to move on our behalf.
“Faith begins by hearing, and by hearing the word of God.”
A Sunday worship service focused on God's faithfulness and timely interventions, the importance of prayer, guidance and thanksgiving, with teaching from the Psalms about faith, holiness and confident supplication. Practical calls include repentance, persistent prayer and meditation, wholehearted worship, generosity, and readiness to follow God's guidance.
“so then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God”
A Bible-study style message on faith titled "Manifestation: Maintenance Leads to Manifestation." Speakers teach faith as a heart-and-mouth response to God's promises, using the centurion (Matthew 8) and the parable of the sower (Mark 4) to show how to obtain results by (1) finding a promise, (2) speaking the word, and (3) acting in faith. Practical maintenance—regular spiritual disciplines, removal of 'other things,' stewardship (giving), and taking authority in prayer—is emphasized as necessary for heavenly promises to produce earthly manifestation. The service includes offering exhortation, altar calls for salvation, rededication and church membership, and prayers for healing.
“Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”
A practical sermon teaching that faith is the mechanism by which believers receive blessings already provided in the spiritual realm. The speakers explain the 'two arenas' (physical and spiritual), contrast God's grace with our faith-response, encourage confession, giving in expectancy, and claim healing, prosperity, and salvation as present realities to be received by faith.
