Pastor Derrill Corbin continues the Names of God series with a message titled “Jehovah Jireh – The Lord Who Provides,” preached at the Portland Campus on March 15, 2026. Centered in Genesis 22, this sermon explores the powerful story of Abraham and Isaac and the moment Abraham declared that “the Lord will provide.”

In this passage, Abraham faces one of the greatest tests of faith recorded in Scripture. God asks him to surrender his promised son, Isaac, revealing that true faith often requires trusting God beyond what we can see or understand. Through this moment, Abraham discovers a deeper revelation of God’s character—Jehovah Jireh, the God who sees ahead and provides exactly what is needed at the right moment.

Pastor Derrill teaches that God’s tests are never meant to destroy faith but to develop it. As Abraham takes a step of obedience, God reveals His provision in the form of a ram, demonstrating that faith and obedience unlock what God has already prepared.

Ultimately, this story points forward to the greater provision of God—the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ. Just as Abraham trusted God on the mountain, believers today are invited to trust in God’s character, step forward in faith, and discover that the Lord truly sees and provides.

In this message, we explore Jehovah Elohim — the Lord God, Creator and Covenant Maker. From the opening chapters of Genesis, God reveals Himself not as a distant deity but as a relational Creator who intentionally forms the world and invites humanity into partnership with Him. Creation itself reflects His covenant heart, and humanity is given identity, purpose, and responsibility as bearers of His image.

In this episode of Love’s Limit on Tongues – Part 2, Pastor Derrill Corbin teaches from 1 Corinthians 14 and explains how spiritual gifts, especially tongues, should work in the church. The church in Corinth had powerful gifts, but they also struggled with pride, division, and disorder. Paul did not tell them to stop using the gifts. Instead, he reminded them to use their gifts in a way that builds others up and honors God.

This message shows that spiritual hunger is good, but love must come first. Order matters. Character matters. Self-control matters. Tongues are not the goal, and being louder or more emotional is not the goal. Love is the goal. A healthy church is bold in the Spirit, strong in character, and full of love for people.

Pastor Derrill Corbin brings a timely and clarifying word on Love’s Limit on Tongues, reminding us that Paul’s correction to the Corinthian church was not a rejection of spiritual gifts—but a reordering of priorities. The gifts are powerful, but love is the atmosphere they must flow through.

In this message, Pastor Derrill teaches that without love, even spiritual language becomes noise. The purpose of every gift—tongues, prophecy, or any manifestation of the Spirit—is edification. Gifts are not for display, but for building up the body of Christ. Love is what guides, governs, and grounds the operation of every spiritual expression.

Pastor Asim delivers a powerful message on The Beauty and Value of Tongues, exploring the mystery and meaning of spiritual language. He teaches that tongues are not just emotional expression, but a divinely empowered gift that carries intimacy, strength, and spiritual renewal.

In this sermon, Pastor Asim explains how tongues function as both earthly and heavenly language—often unintelligible to the mind yet empowered by the Spirit. He highlights how praying in tongues refreshes the spirit, builds faith, and releases rivers of living water within the believer. Most importantly, he reminds us that while spiritual gifts are powerful, they must always be anchored in love—because the fruit of the Spirit remains the true measure of maturity.

Pastor Derrill Corbin preaches a powerful message on God’s Promise to You, revealing the Baptism of the Holy Spirit as the Father’s promise, the Son’s gift, and the believer’s empowerment. This is more than an experience. It is heaven’s power to live boldly and witness for Christ.

This message unpacks how the Baptism of the Holy Spirit is distinct from salvation and given for ministry, how the promise is personal and generational, and how receiving the Spirit releases boldness, worship, and spiritual language to fulfill Jesus’ mission on the earth.

Pastor Carlos teaches from 1 Corinthians 14:39 and Mark 16:15–17 (NLT) that speaking in tongues is not a relic of the past, but a living sign of a Spirit-empowered church. In a world that often resists what it cannot control, Jesus still calls His followers to embrace the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit. This message reclaims the biblical legitimacy, purpose, and power of tongues—showing that they did not cease with the apostles, but remain part of God’s unbroken promise to the Church. The sound of the Spirit, seen in John 3 and Acts 2, reveals spiritual language as heaven’s communication with earth, reminding us that the Kingdom of God is not merely intellectual, but experiential and transformative.

In Luke 11:5–10, Jesus tells the parable of the friend who knocks at midnight, revealing that persistence in prayer moves the heart of God. This isn’t about manipulating heaven—it’s about holy desperation. Persistent prayer exposes what we truly value and believe. When we keep knocking, faith is activated, intimacy deepens, and hearts are transformed. The midnight hour becomes the proving ground where real faith refuses to quit, and those who knock long enough don’t just see doors open—they begin to mirror the persistence of Christ Himself.

In Matthew 4:1–11, before Jesus ever preached a sermon, healed the sick, or called a disciple, He entered the wilderness to fast, pray, and confront the enemy. The wilderness was not punishment—it was preparation. Through persistent prayer and fasting, Jesus transformed testing into triumph. Every temptation became an opportunity to declare the Word, resist the enemy, and align with the Father’s will. This passage reminds us that fasting doesn’t weaken believers; it sharpens spiritual perception and strengthens inner authority. When we fast and pray, we silence lesser appetites so the Father’s voice becomes clearest—and the wilderness becomes a weapon where victory is forged.

In Daniel 10:1–14, we see that delay does not mean denial. From the very first day Daniel prayed and fasted, heaven heard—but the answer was resisted in the unseen realm. Daniel didn’t stop. He persisted until the breakthrough came. This passage reveals that our prayers engage spiritual warfare, that endurance partners with angelic activity, and that fasting strengthens our capacity to stand. We don’t pray from frustration—we pray from revelation, trusting God’s timing until heaven breaks through.
