    Join us for an enlightening message by Rev. Yemi Adedeji as he delves into the "Types of Harvest." This insightful discussion reveals the profound spiritual truths behind different types of harvests we can experience in our lives.

    Rev. Yemi Adedeji's message offers deep insights into embracing these spiritual harvests in our lives. Join us on this journey of understanding and celebrate the abundance, gratitude, and growth that come from living in God's blessings.

    • Victory over Enemies of Progress

      Tune in to this powerful sermon as we delve into the keys to overcoming obstacles and achieving true success in life.


      Delivering this impactful message is the esteemed guest minister, Pastor Emmanuel Joshua.


      In this message, we confront the reality that there are enemies of progress surrounding us, hindering our path to success.


      We explore the following enemies of progress:

      1. Laziness and idleness: Drawing from (Prov. 6:4-11;
      2. 1 Tim. 5:6-13; Isaiah 3:10; Prov. 12:11) we understand the importance of diligence and hard work in achieving our goals.

      4. 3:13 not to let past successes hold us back but to press forward towards new victories.

      8. Discouragement: Proverbs 27:10 teaches us the danger of discouragement and the importance of maintaining focus on our goals, trusting in God's promises for our future. We are reminded 'the best way to deal with discouragement is to maintain focus' and 'how you picture your future determines your victory'
      9. Join us as we equip ourselves with the tools to conquer these enemies of progress and step into the victorious life God has destined for us.

        ๐ŸŒŸ Join us in reflecting on Dcns Grace's profound message from our recent gathering: Embracing Fellowship and Strengthening Our Relationship with God. ๐Ÿ™Œ Fulfilling His commandments, cherishing ourselves as temples of God, and finding solace in God as our shield โ€“ these are the gems she shared with us.


        Let's draw inspiration from Matthew 22:37, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind." Despite the inevitable trials, remember, nothing can penetrate the shield of God. With Him by our side, we overcome every challenge.


        She reminds us of Jeremiah 17:9-10, highlighting the importance of submitting to God in obeying His commandments. Love, as stated in 1 John 4:16, becomes our guiding force, and our actions reflect our love for God.


        How do we express our love for God? Ephesians 5:1 encourages us to imitate God in everything we do, acknowledging that love for Jesus is the gateway to God, as Romans 4:1 emphasizes.


        Reflecting on sacrifices, Revelation 1:6 and 2 Samuel 6:11-15 illustrate the profound impact of worshiping God. The presence of God makes a difference, and, as Dcns Grace emphasizes, God is within each of us.

        As you navigate through life, consider developing a discerning spirit guided by the Holy Spirit, as mentioned in John 14:26 and John 16:13. How do you identify the right individuals to cultivate relationships with?

        Obedience plays a crucial role in connecting your heart to God, as Acts 13:22 and Joshua 1:8 remind us. Take a moment to consider the role of studying the Word of God in deepening this spiritual bond.
