    A Head Table Mentality Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 26, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,967 views

    A leader is not automatically the honored guest. He or she must take the lowest seat at the table and learn to serve others. Only then, will Jesus move that person higher. If someone grabs the best seat, he or she will be moved lower.

    This evening’s message is entitled “A Head Table Mentality,” and it’s taken from a parable that discusses the valued position of the meek and lowly. This parable promotes Christ-like leadership over the worldly model of leadership in which power and control seems to be the normal style. Kenneth ...read more

    The intensity of God's power within us often attracts greater challenges. The higher the anointing, the fiercer the conflict. The brighter our destiny, the more severe our adversaries. However, through persistent prayer, we can overcome these afflictions.

    The Bible clearly states that Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8). One of these works is affliction. In this eye-opening message, we will explore the power of God to turn around our situations, deliver us from affliction, and empower us to overcome our enemies. Affliction may ...read more

    Word Of God: What Is In It For Me?

    Contributed by Dr. Madana Kumar, Phd on Feb 26, 2018
     | 3,982 views

    What is our response to the Word of God? Do we continue to search out to try and see how the word can meet our needs? Or do we have a higher purpose in listening to the word and applying it? The answer to the question "What is In It for Me? " is simple.

    This month’s topic is Word of God and for the past two weeks both the pastors have given us some serious messages on what is the Word all about. I would like to turn the table and focus on “What is our response to the Word?” Whether I am teaching at SAIACS or running a program for my corporate job, ...read more
