Crossing The 'red Sea Moments' For Deliverance

Contributed by Antonio Manaytay on Oct 25, 2025

The crossing of the Red Sea was not just an escape from Egypt — it was the crossing of deliverance. It was the line between bondage and freedom, between slavery and salvation, between despair and destiny.

When Moses and the Israelites stood before the Red Sea, they were trapped between two impossibilities — an angry army behind them and a vast sea before them. Yet in that moment of desperation, God made a way where there was no way. The crossing of the Red Sea was not just an escape from Egypt — ...read more

What Makes Your Prayer Powerful? (Praying From The New Covenant 2) Series

Contributed by Christabel N. Onuoha on May 6, 2023

What makes the believer’s prayer powerful is not the verboseness of the speech, not the gyration or energy or loudness in our voice, it’s not even the number of scriptures we quote when we pray. Paul says, “for I am not ashamed of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto salvation…”

This is a continuation of the Praying From The New Covenant series. In my last message “Praying From Victory” as opposed to praying for victory, I mentioned that praying from victory is praying from the perspective of the finished work of Jesus on Calvary. And this is a perspective issue, it’s a ...read more
