    Part 4: Why God Often Withholds Explanation Series

    Contributed by Rev Emmanuel O. Adejugbe on Jan 23, 2026
     | 110 views

    If God is present and active, why is He so silent? We live in an age of information where we expect a 'why' for every 'what.' But in this message, we discover that God often withholds the explanation to protect the formation.

    The Question We're All Asking We've learned that God is hidden, but not absent. We've learned that silence is refinement, not punishment. We've learned that God knows us intimately, even in the darkness. But now we come to the hardest question of all. If God is really present. If ...read more

     | 104 views

    True faith is shown by serving others with love in everyday life, trusting that God values our simple acts of kindness and compassion.

    Some of us walked in today with a smile on our face and a storm in our chest. Others came in with questions that kept us up last night. We wonder, Do I measure up? Is God tired of me stumbling? Can simple, ordinary me really please a holy God? Friend, take a deep breath. Your Father is not frowning ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 304 views

    Trusting God means obeying Him even when the path is unclear; true faith is shown through daily, courageous steps of obedience rooted in His promises.

    Some mornings feel like a fog has rolled in and parked on the path right in front of you. You can see your feet, maybe the next step, yet the road ahead stays hidden. Bills stack up, doctors call back, kids cry, doors close, and the heart whispers, “Lord, what do I do now?” In moments like these, ...read more

    God offers deep, transformative grace—restoring brokenness, writing His law on our hearts, and forgiving our sins completely through the new covenant in Christ.

    Some days feel like a slow sunrise after a long night. You wake up with yesterday’s worries still whispering, with old guilt tugging at your sleeve, with the quiet question that won’t quit: Can things really change? Is there mercy for what’s been messed up, mendedness for what’s been mangled? If ...read more

    God defines our true identity, calling us chosen and purposeful, empowering us to live distinctly and shine His light in a world of confusion.

    Good morning, friends. Settle your hearts for a moment and breathe this in: God knows your name, sees your needs, and has spoken a word over your life that outlasts every label the world tries to stick on you.

     | 1,216 views

    Jesus gives pastors as a loving gift to His church, calling us to honor, support, and pray for them as they shepherd and serve us.

    Some of the greatest gifts Jesus gives to His church have names and faces, coffee-stained sermon notes, calloused knees, and tender hearts. They stand at hospital bedsides, whisper prayers in empty sanctuaries, answer phone calls after midnight, and show up again on Sunday with a smile that says, ...read more

    God works through ordinary courage, presence, and compassion, weaving deliverance and hope even in our most fragile and uncertain moments.

    Some stories slip into our souls like a lullaby. Exodus 2 is one of them. We can almost hear the hush of a mother’s whisper, see the ripple of the Nile, feel the tremble of a sister’s hope. A woven basket, a watchful girl, and a princess with tear-touched eyes—God pens redemption with reeds and ...read more

    The sermon emphasizes choosing wise, loving friendships that nurture faith and character, trusting God’s guidance to build relationships that help us flourish and avoid harm.

    If you want to see tomorrow, look at the faces around your table today. The people who share your coffee and your commute, your prayers and your plans—these voices shape the volume of your soul. Companions can calm our fears or kindle them. Counsel can steady our steps or scatter them. God cares ...read more

     | 201 views

    In turbulent times, God calls us to steadfast faith, resilient hope, and genuine godliness, anchored in Christ and His truth, not swayed by counterfeit spirituality.

    Friends, if your heart has felt a steady ache from the noise of our age—the headlines that howl, the arguments that never end, the fatigue that flares by Friday—take a deep breath. You are not alone, and you are not without a map. God has spoken. He has not left us guessing or grasping in the dark. ...read more

    God’s steadfast love transforms us, enabling us to extend patient, kind, and honest love to others, even in difficult relationships and situations.

    If you’ve ever stood at the sink late at night replaying a hard conversation, wondering whether love can last through another week of deadlines, disappointments, or disrespect, you are in good company. Hearts get bruised. Words get sharp. People we care about act like porcupines. And if we’re ...read more

    Even in our darkest disappointments and brokenness, God’s hope and faithfulness remain, inviting us to trust Him when everything else falls apart.

    Sometimes life feels like a city under siege. You plan, you pray, you press on—and then the bottom drops out. The letter arrives. The job shifts. The news blindsides. You look around and the familiar skyline of your world seems changed, scarred, and smoky. Have you ever stood there, heart in your ...read more
