Pastor Dr Kasanda - City of the Lord Church Kafue Branch

Are you worshipping God—or has something else quietly taken His place?

In this powerful teaching, Pastor Dr Kasanda continues the series on Deliverance and Worship, revealing that God does not deliver us merely to bring us out of bondage, but to bring us into a life of worship. Discover why everyone worships something, why “you become what you worship,” and why whatever holds your gaze ultimately shapes your life.

This message explores:

• The true purpose of deliverance

• Why worship is more than singing

• The danger of allowing blessings to become idols

• Why “you become what you worship”

• The mystery of worship and the heavenly altar

• Why your prayers and worship are not wasted

• The believer as both priest and living sacrifice

• The ministry of the Holy Spirit in making us increasingly like Jesus

• Why genuine worship will sometimes cost you something

Challenge for the week:

“Name Your Flask.”

What is the costly thing you have been protecting from God?

What is your worship going to cost you?

Jesus must take His rightful place.

Have you ever felt like your faith was fading under the weight of disappointment, pain, anxiety, or unanswered prayers?

In this powerful teaching, Pastor Dr. Kasanda Mbasela shares 7 biblical ways to recover your faith and stand strong again in God. Jesus prayed for Peter not that he would avoid the trial, but that his faith would not fail. Your faith can rise again.

📖 In this message you will learn:

❤️ How prayer preserves faith
👄 Why your confession matters
👶 How childlike trust restores belief
👂🏽 The importance of guarding what you hear
🧠 Why understanding strengthens faith
💪🏽 How to respond to God’s Word with boldness
🔥 How to embrace the Spirit of Faith

Key Scriptures:

• Luke 22:32
• Hebrews 10:23
• Matthew 18:3
• Romans 10:17
• Psalm 82:5–8
• Hebrews 13:5–6
• 2 Corinthians 4:13

One of the powerful truths shared in this teaching is the meaning of the Greek word ekleipo — “to fail,” “to cease,” or “to be eclipsed.” Sometimes faith is still there, but life’s circumstances stand in the way until all we can see is pain, fear, disappointment, or anxiety. This message will help you see God again beyond the eclipse.

Why does Satan fight faith so aggressively?

Because faith receives what God has promised.

In this powerful teaching, Pastor Dr. Kasanda Mbasela explains how the enemy attacks faith, why Jesus warned about losing heart, and the warning signs that your faith is under pressure.

Jesus said:

“When the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?” — Luke 18:8

God’s answer is not the problem. Heaven is willing to respond. But many believers lose heart before the manifestation arrives.

In this message, you will discover:

🔥 What it means to “lose heart” (Ekkakkeo)
🔥 Why Satan targeted Peter’s confession
🔥 How delay and disappointment slowly erode faith
🔥 Why the enemy attacks specific revelations God gave you
🔥 The danger of losing your confession
🔥 How wounded experiences can weaken expectation
🔥 The difference between believing for “someday” and believing today

📖 Key Scriptures:

• Luke 18:1–8
• Luke 22:31–32
• Matthew 16:16–18
• Matthew 26:72–74
• Hebrews 11:35
• Hebrews 11:20
• Genesis 27:9
• II Kings 4:16
• John 11:23–26
• I Timothy 6:12

This teaching also explores the incredible power of faith in Scripture:

• women receiving their dead raised to life again,
• Isaac blessing prophetically by faith,
• faith shifting natural limitations,
• and why the enemy fears living faith.

Faith does not usually collapse suddenly — it erodes slowly. Learn the warning signs before the enemy sifts your confession.

In this deep and revelatory sermon, Pastor Dr. Kasanda unveils one of the most powerful dimensions of grace: grace as a divine exchange.

Grace is not only unmerited favor—it is a supernatural trade-off, a holy transaction in which Jesus Christ took our place so that we could take His.

Anchored in Isaiah 53, John 1:17, and New Testament truths, this message carefully answers a critical question:

What did Jesus become for us, so that we could become what He is?

In this sermon, you will discover:

• Why grace is more than forgiveness—it is transformation

• How Jesus exchanged beauty for rejection, joy for sorrow, strength for weakness

• Why the Son of God was described as a “man of sorrows”

• How grief, sickness, sin, shame, and punishment were transferred onto Christ

• Why Scripture boldly declares: “As He is, so are we in this world”

• How believers are empowered to carry the mind, nature, and authority of Christ

Pastor Dr. Kasanda explains how:

• Jesus bore what belonged to us

• He carried grief, sorrow, sin, and punishment that were never His

• He became what God hated, so we could become what God loves

• Healing, peace, righteousness, and restoration flow from this divine exchange

📖 “He was wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities… and by His stripes we are healed.” (Isaiah 53:5)

This sermon brings clarity to the Cross—not merely as a place of suffering, but as the altar of exchange, where destinies were swapped and believers were elevated into their true identity in Christ.

Listen with faith.

Receive with understanding.

Live from the reality of grace.
