Feet First: Moving From 'wait-And-See' To 'step-And-Seize'

Contributed by Rev Emmanuel O. Adejugbe on Dec 29, 2025

We spend too much time praying for doors to open and not enough time walking toward them. This sermon provides three physical actions to take during the New Year crossover to ensure you don't just "watch" the year happen, but you "occupy" the promises God has for you.

Most people approach the New Year like a spectator at a swimming pool they stand on the edge, shivering, dipping a toe in to see if the "water" of the coming year is warm enough to jump. They wait for a sign, a feeling, or a "word" before they make a move. But as we stand at the ...read more

The danger of allowing the end to justify the means is a real danger all of us need to be aware of, for none are immune to the virus of this danger. We ...read more
