    God Tests Obedience, Not Loyalty - By Pastor Ondu Joseph

    Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Feb 17, 2025
     | 462 views

    Loyalty without obedience is meaningless. God does not test how much we claim to love Him; He tests whether we will follow His commands. Let us strive to be not just hearers of the Word but doers, walking in full obedience to His will.

    Scripture: 1 Samuel 15:22 - "But Samuel replied: 'Does the LORD delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the LORD? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams.'" Introduction: Many believers equate loyalty to God with ...read more

    The Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth, "will not let your foot slip—He who watches over you will neither slumber nor sleep." Turn your worries over to God -- He’s going to be up all night anyway!

    SLEEP EASY: GOD IS AWAKE! Ps. 121:3-4 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: ANIMALS IN HEAVEN? 1. There’s a natural curiosity about Heaven. One little boy asked his Mom, “Mom, are there animals in Heaven?” She replied, “What kind of animals?” 2. He said, “Regular animals, cows and bees.” She said, “I’m not ...read more

     | 1,623 views

    Prophetic Alignment" is a call to the church to tune into God's voice, align with His heart, and act on His direction. This sermon challenges believers to hear clearly, live obediently, and impact the world through prophetic action that reflects God’s will.

    Throughout history, God has always spoken to His people. He has never left His church without direction, guidance, or His voice. The Bible is filled with stories of how God aligned His people with His purposes by speaking to and through His prophets. In these moments, prophetic alignment was not ...read more

    Discovering Your "Why” In Life Series

     | 1,172 views

    The will of the Father wasn’t an optional thing for Jesus; it was an essential thing. It wasn’t a cul-de-sac, but it was His main thoroughfare. Just as you were to finish a big porterhouse steak, Jesus is satisfied by doing the Father’s will. It was His source of life.

    Have you discovered your purpose? Do you know your “why”? Many American Christians fall into the trap that exists only to make money or to be happy. Do you know why God has placed you here on earth? Do you know your “why”? Invitation At the conclusion of today’s message, you will be invited to ...read more

    This timely message encourages believers to embrace their unique callings, regardless of how small or unnoticed they may appear. It reassures them that every prayer offered and every act of kindness extended contributes to a greater cause when aligned with God's purpose and will.

    Building On The Rock Series

    Those who heed the message of a false prophet are unwise, building their hope on an unstable foundation. Jesus discusses "doing" vs. "doing his will," as many who proclaim to do works in His name will wind up in hell.

    Our message today picks up where we left off, where Jesus warned us about false prophets who are ravenous wolves in sheep’s clothing (cf. Matthew 7:15-20). When I preached from that passage, I began with the fairy tale of “Little Red Riding Hood” and the wolf as our opening illustration. This ...read more

    There’s a lot more to ridin’ a horse than just sittin’ in the saddle and lettin’ your feet hang down. If truth be known there’s more to what happens after the trumpet sounds than many are willing to admit, let’s examine it together!

    When marriages crumble, we often hear people say that they just must have been “wrong” for each other. More often than not, being right or wrong for someone depends not on some mysterious compatibility quotient, but on how willing and able we are to help

    Finding Security and Significance There are a lot of jokes and one-liners about marriage. It’s probably because as beautiful as marriage is, as set forth in the song we just heard, it’s also extremely challenging and can be pretty ugly at times.

    Wife, it’s not just up to you, but you’re the HEART of the HOME, in almost every circumstance. You will keep the relationship alive more than he will. Yes, he must cooperate, but you’re the one who will keep the bridge in good shape!

    The Heart of the Home Wives, it’s your turn this morning! Seriously, I am preaching today in the context of the Christian wife and mother.
