Doubt doesn’t always feel loud.

Sometimes… it sounds logical.

“Did God really say…?”

That’s how it started in the garden.
And it’s still how the enemy works today.

Rev. Tommy Berridge preached a powerful message on how doubt quietly opposes the promises of God.

Anything that contradicts what God has spoken—
that’s doubt.

And if we entertain it long enough…

It will rob us of what God already promised.

“If you ask in faith… God WILL give it.”

Not maybe.
Not someday.

He WILL.

But doubt creates instability.

It makes us restless.
It makes us hesitate.
It keeps us stuck.

But faith does something different:

Faith moves.
Faith speaks.
Faith acts.

Like the four lepers who said:

“Why sit here until we die?”

They didn’t have a perfect plan—
but they took a step.

And when they moved…

God moved.

The enemy fled.
Provision showed up.
The promise became reality.

Your dream is not dead.
God’s delay is not God’s denial.

It’s time to stop entertaining doubt—
and start walking in dominion.

There’s nothing wrong with the power of God.

The problem is alignment.

Rev. Tony D’Alessandro preached a powerful message on authority, alignment, and the flow of God’s Spirit.

God has already given:

Calling
Gifting
Anointing

But those things only flow when we are aligned.

Aligned with:
The Spirit
The Word
Authority

When we get out of alignment, everything feels dry:

We stop hearing God
We feel disconnected
We lose direction

But when we step back into alignment…

Everything changes.

The flow returns.
Clarity returns.
Power returns.

“A man can receive nothing… except it be given from heaven.”

That means:
What God has placed in others… is for you too.

But you have to receive it.

We are not competing—we are connected.

When we release one another:
We receive from one another.

When we honor authority:
We walk in authority.

When we stay submitted:
We stay covered.

This message wasn’t just correction—
It was an invitation:

Get back in alignment
And step into everything God has for you

Faith isn’t proven when everything is going right.

Faith is proven when everything is falling apart…

…and you keep believing anyway.

“Faith is the substance of things hoped for…”

That means: Faith lives in what you can’t see yet.

Bishop Sharp taught that real faith is:

Holding on when nothing changes. Believing when the answer hasn’t come. Trusting when the outcome doesn’t make sense

Because faith is always tied to hope.

If you lose hope… You lose faith.

But when God puts something in your heart— a promise, a vision, a future—

That’s not random.

“God puts the hope in you because He wants to bring it to pass.”

The danger isn’t struggle… The danger is unbelief.

Because unbelief can abort what God intended to do.

But faith says:

It’s not over God has done it before God will do it again

And sometimes…

God lets the bottom fall out just to show you He’s still in control.

“If you believe, you can have it.”

So don’t let go. Don’t quit. Don’t lose hope.

The best is still ahead.

Your life is moving in the direction of your thoughts.

Not your intentions. Not your desires.

Your thoughts.

“Your thinking has put you where you are.”

Bishop Sharp taught a powerful truth:

If you want to change your life, you have to change how you think.

Because:

Thoughts become words Words become actions Actions become habits Habits shape your life

The real battle isn’t out there… it’s in your mind.

What you allow in your mind will shape your future.

That’s why the Word of God matters so much— it teaches us how to think like God.

“God gave us a book… to teach us how to think.”

When you guard your mind:

You break wrong patterns You silence wrong voices You build right thinking

And right thinking produces a sound mind.

Harmony in your thinking brings power. Discord in your thinking brings weakness.

You don’t need a new life…

You need a renewed mind.

The enemy’s greatest strategy isn’t just attack—it’s confusion.

If he can make you forget who you are, he can keep you from walking in what you have.

Rev. Earnest Alexander preached a powerful message on identity:

You are not ordinary. You are a son. You are a daughter.

And that means something.

You carry authority. You carry power. You carry the Name.

“There’s power attached to you… because you belong to Him.”

The problem isn’t that God hasn’t given us power— it’s that we don’t always walk in it.

But when you understand who you are:

You speak differently You walk differently You fight differently

And the unseen begins to respond.

Devils flee at the name of Jesus. And that name is on your life.

This isn’t just about knowing God…

It’s about walking like you belong to Him.

The book of Ephesians doesn’t end with encouragement.It ends with instruction.

Bishop Paul Sharp brought the series to a powerful close with one clear message:

You are in a fight—but you are equipped to win.

We don’t wrestle against people.We wrestle against spiritual forces.

That means:

Your battle isn’t your spouse.Your battle isn’t your situation.Your battle is spiritual.

And God didn’t leave you defenseless.

Truth.Righteousness.Peace.Faith.Salvation.The Word.Prayer.

This is the armor of God.

But here’s the key:

You have to put it on.

Nobody can do it for you.

And when the battle comes—and it will—your assignment is simple:

Stand.

Don’t quit.Don’t give up.Don’t back down.

Because if you don’t quit… you win.

What if the answer you’ve been praying for… is already inside you?

Rev. John Proctor reminded us that we are not empty—we are carriers.

“We have this treasure in earthen vessels…”

God didn’t place His Spirit in perfect people.He placed it in available people.

That means:

You carry power.You carry authority.You carry the presence of God.

Too often, we focus on what we lack instead of what God has already given.

But when you realize what’s inside you… everything changes.

You stop being intimidated.You stop holding back.You stop waiting for someone else.

And you start walking in what God placed in you.

The treasure isn’t coming.

It’s already here.

There is something different about being in the presence of God.

Rev. John Proctor reminded us that everything we need—healing, peace, direction, deliverance—is found in one place: His presence.

Not in striving. Not in worry. Not in chasing answers.

But in drawing near.

“Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you.” (James 4:8)

This message challenged us to shift our focus:

• Stop dwelling on the past• Stop entertaining negativity• Stop waiting for someone else to pray

And start pursuing Him personally.

Because signs don’t follow perfect people…They follow believers.

You don’t need a platform.You don’t need a title.You just need faith—and His presence.

When you walk with Him:

Healing follows.Miracles follow.Authority follows.

And most importantly—He draws closer.

This wasn’t just a message.It was an invitation:

Get back to the place where you first felt Him.

Sunday night wasn’t just another service—it was a call to action.

Rev. Ethan Tucker challenged us with two simple but powerful questions:

What do you need?And what are you going to do about it?

We were reminded that God is ready to move—but there is a response required.

Jesus told Nicodemus, “You must be born again.”Not suggested. Not optional. Required.

And just like the wind…You may not see it,But you will feel it when it moves.

The wind of God is not random—it flows from a place of fire.

If we want the wind to blow in our lives…We have to build the fire.

Prayer.Faith.Hunger.Action.

This message stirred something deep in the room:Don’t wait for a move of God—create an environment for it.

Because when the fire is built…The wind WILL blow.

Sermon #1555 – Submission, Order, and the Word That Forms Us

In this continuation of the book of Ephesians, Bishop Paul Sharp taught that God’s design for blessing is rooted in submission to His Word.

From marriage to family to the workplace, God established order—not to limit us, but to position us for favor and spiritual growth.

True submission is not weakness—it is alignment with God’s authority. When we submit to God and to one another in the fear of the Lord, we create an environment where His blessing can flow.

Bishop emphasized that words matter. Just as Christ sanctifies the church through His Word, our words shape our homes, our marriages, and our children.

The health of a home is often a reflection of what is spoken within it.

The key principle is simple:The Word works.

When we obey it, it produces righteousness, unity, and blessing in every area of life.
