Clean my lenses (by Pastor Carole)
Clean my lenses Last Sunday’s message was a reminder of a scripture that was given to us at the beginning of the year for the whole year: Philippians 1:19-20. As part of the preaching provided, I was reminded to ”clean my lenses”. Yes, every day it is important to ask God to examine my heart because quite often there might be some “stains” that I am not aware of, and only God can tell me about them so I can…
Who Is Your God (by Tina)
Who Is Your God Pastor Jonathan’s message from this Sunday was from the scripture Exodus 32: The story of Moses and how the children of Israel rebelled against the Lord their God with idol worship. We learnt that when Moses went up to the mountain, he stayed for forty days and forty nights while the rest of the elders returned to the camp and others waited nearby. When the people felt Moses’ return was delayed, they came before Aaron and…
God’s Eyes Are On You (by Emmanuel)
God’s Eyes Are On You Yeshua was encouraging his disciples, when He told them that they were going to face challenges, but that they can overcome these challenges. This is what Pastor Vickylextar reminded us during last Sunday’s service. As we follow Yeshua, we will all face challenges. But as long as we keep our faith in God and do His will, we will also overcome these challenges. God knows every detail about us, and He cares much more. When…
Call onto Him and He will show us great things (by Tendo)
Call onto Him and He will show us great things On Sunday, we had a unique service where we prayed for one another and ourselves. Pastor Vickylextar also took the opportunity to share important aspects of prayer with us to help us better understand what prayer is and improve our prayer lives. Pastor Vickylextar started by sharing Jeremiah 33:2-3. Here, Adonai, our creator, is giving us an invitation to pray. And He will show us hidden things or incredible things…
Faith Without Works Is Dead (by Lissa)
Faith Without Works Is Dead During our service on Sunday, November 7, Pastor Vickylextar shared on the topic of faith in action. She shared that “faith comes from what is heard” (Romans 10:17) in the same way fear comes from what is heard. She shared on being mindful of what we watch and hear as they can either bring faith or cause fear. We are bombarded by information daily, especially online. This was a great reminder for me to pay…
Valuing What I Have in My Hands (by Genevive)
Valuing What I Have in My Hands I have had a yo-yo year. At times I felt like things were good when they really weren’t. Life was falling apart and I didn’t even see it. My heart was broken into so many pieces and I had to choose; it was a matter of life and death. I could dwell in my circumstances or choose life and allow Abba Father to heal and restore me. I felt like a complete failure,…
Fitness Sunday: Faith Like A Muscle (by Nii)
Fitness Sunday: Faith like a muscle Sunday’s service was a different church experience. We did an actual physical and spiritual work-out session led by our very able Pastor Vickylextar, and it threw light on the Armour of God for me in a new way. God and my spiritual family are interested in my physical, spiritual, and mental health; that means I have all the support I need. She began the process by casting aside the nice jacket and dressing accessories…
Peace be Still (by Pastor David)
Peace be still Yeshua has assured us that He has given us His peace. His peace is not the carnal kind of peace, but the supernatural kind that keeps us anchored even in the midst of the storm. Casting references absolute surrender of the situation to God… God’s peace does not mean the absence of trouble or strife. On the contrary, it is the calming of His presence in the midst of the storm. When the storm rages around us,…
Many Are Called But Few Are Chosen (by Gina)
Many are called but few are chosen (Matthew 22:14) This week we had a family meeting where Pastor Viclylextar shared an update about where we were as a ministry and she also answered any questions we had. Let’s pause here… How awesome is that! I’m very grateful to be in such an environment. being chosen is a response. She shared many amazing truths, but what stuck with me was how many are called but few are chosen. This is because being…
Humbling Myself – Why is it important?
Humbling Myself – Why it is important to humble ourselves? Pastor Vickylextar gave us another message that hit home – they all do but some more closely than others. She clearly said that her messages aren’t targeting one or two persons but all of us. The scripture she gave us (1 Peter 5) mentions both young and old, so that covers pretty much everyone who attended the service and reads the bible! This scripture teaches a strong behaviour lesson by saying…

My Strong Tower – What Does It Mean?
Strong tower – What does it mean? protection God is Good, God is Faithful, God is a Strong Tower for me and for you!! The verse we received for this week was “The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous runs to it and is safe and set on high (far above evil)”, found in Proverbs 18:10. When God gives us/me a verse for the week, it means that I will need it; it is quite possible…
