    We’re going to begin in two places tonight – John 3 and Genesis 3. I want you to think about a question: How will this Christmas be different for you than past Christmases?

    God gave us a gift in His Son. That gift must be taken out of the "box" and utilized in order to get the full benefit of the gift. Many Christians keep Jesus in a box where He is not allowed to operate freely in their lives.

The title of my message today is “The Gift Is Not The Box” and I want to focus your attention on spiritual maturity. Proverbs 20:11, from the New American Standard Bible, says, ...read more

    The Secret Of Spiritual Power

    Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Apr 3, 2025

     | 230 views

    Christians today are encouraged to seek more power, more anointing, and more gifts. Indeed, as the Lord calls us back to the Cross to become disciples of Jesus, He intends to first humble us before empowering us.

    The basic need of a disciple of Jesus Christ is not seeking for more power from God, but more brokenness. Apostle Paul says in 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 “Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in ...read more
