The GLA Podcast

In the final session, Pastor Chris Delvan brings the teachings to a close by emphasizing the purpose of the manifestation of the Holy Spirit. He states that the Holy Spirit's power is not given for personal gain but "always for the profit of all."

The Work of the HarvestThe session urges listeners to go beyond seeking God to meet their personal needs. He says the "mighty acts of God" are what happen after a person's needs have been met, enabling them to focus on the work of the harvest. This is the core assignment for believers to preach the gospel and bring others into the kingdom. The speaker challenges the audience, "When will you preach the gospel, when will you go for us?"

Identifying with ChristPastor Delvan powerfully reminds the audience of their commission, stating, "You are not sent less than Christ was sent. It is as the Father sent Jesus." He reiterates that believers have been given the same authority and revelation as Christ, enabling them to fulfill their mission. This is a call to action, urging believers to not just consume the teachings but to apply them to their lives and engage in the harvest.

Pastor Chingtok Ishaku delivers a powerful and convicting message centered on the idea that unbelief is not merely a weakness but a sin. He argues that unbelief is an "evil heart" that directly dishonors the immense sacrifice Jesus made.

He makes a compelling point that a believer's ability to live a supernatural life is already secured by grace through faith. It does not require personal effort or strength to earn God's power. Any contribution of human effort, he says, "just made useless the blood of Jesus." This challenges the notion that we need to work our way to being qualified to do mighty works.

The session also tackles the purpose of miracles from a fresh perspective. Rather than serving as a cause for belief, miracles are signs that we carry as proof of what we already believe. He states, "Miracles do not bring you into believing." Instead, he says that a believer begins rejoicing not when they obtain something, but when the Word of God enters their heart, setting the stage for the miracle to occur.

Pastor Ishaku also addresses practical implications, noting that all troubles are "unbelief-based" and that the peace Jesus offers is free and available. He urges listeners to get angry at unbelief, to cast it out, and to refuse to let external circumstances harden their hearts. The session concludes with a powerful declaration that every promise of God is still valid and will be fulfilled if one chooses to believe.

A Systematic Approach to Faith

In his session, Reverend Hyeladi Mshelia provides a practical framework for how believers can develop and apply their faith. He defines faith not just as a one-time act of belief, but as a systematic process that requires knowledge and rest.

Knowledge as the FoundationThe session starts by emphasizing that knowledge of God is the key to accessing "all things" that have been given to us by His divine power. The fight isn't to get the things themselves, but to gain this foundational knowledge. The speaker notes a common pitfall: people want to "do" the mighty acts of God without first "knowing" His ways. This is why faith, which comes by hearing the word of God, must be a product of His Word and not our own plans or desires.

Rest in the Place of PrayerReverend Mshelia introduces a unique perspective on prayer. He suggests that the purpose of prayer is not to force God into action, but to pray until you receive the peace of God on the matter. This peace, which surpasses all understanding, is the true sign that your prayer has been answered and that you are in alignment with God's timing and plan. It signifies that you have found rest in not knowing every detail but trusting in God's bigger agenda.

Differentiating a Flash from a CallA critical point in the session is the warning against mistaking a temporary spiritual experience or a feeling for a divine call to ministry. Reverend Mshelia calls this an "assumption" and stresses the importance of distinguishing between an "invitation" or "involvement" and an actual, long-term call to ministry. He urges listeners to understand that a walk with God unfolds in phases, and that God determines the timing for everything.

Hearing God's Specific InstructionsRev Hyeladi highlights two ways a believer receives the object of their faith: through direct instruction from the Lord or when it is planted in their heart by God. He stresses the responsibility of sitting with the Word until it speaks a specific promise to you. The ability to hear God's voice is a skill that can be learned and reproduced. This spiritual intelligence allows one to correctly interpret what God is doing and saying, preventing misinterpretations that can lead to frustration or failure.

Pastor Chingtok Ishaku's first session shifts the focus from spiritual action to the internal state of the believer. The central theme is that to receive from God, a person must have seeing eyes, hearing ears, and a yielded heart.

He clarifies that this is not a matter of intellectual capacity or keen listening skills; it's a spiritual posture of readiness to receive.

A key point is the purpose of Jesus' miracles. The speaker argues that Jesus didn't perform miracles to show off His glory, but to demonstrate to us what we should look like and what we are capable of. The miracles were a "stairway" to our own possibilities, a revelation of our potential rather than a mere display of His power.

This counters the belief that only a "superstar" can perform such acts, and Pastor Ishaku directly confronts the "lie of Satan" that one is too young or inexperienced to work miracles.

The session also addresses the concept of divine humility, explaining that Jesus' humility was a deliberate act, not His ultimate identity.

The core of the message is that a believer must abandon the idea of self-disqualification and actively believe what they hear from God.

The session ends by emphasizing the need for a strong, believing heart and a systematic approach to teaching truth rather than relying on criticism.

The Ways of God: Understanding the "How" Behind the Miraculous

This session redefines the "mighty acts of God," moving beyond the common perception that they are only grand, supernatural events. Pastor Sarah clarifies that while limbs shooting out or the sick being healed are indeed God's acts, so are the quiet, yet powerful, demonstrations of patience, hope, and perseverance. The core message is that these mighty acts don't happen in a vacuum; they are a direct result of knowing and walking in the ways of God.

Pastor Sarah emphasizes that the "ways" are the "how" of God. It's not just about what He does, but how He does it. For believers, this means our focus shouldn't be on just praying for a miracle to happen, but on understanding the spiritual principles and character that birth those miracles.

The session uses Romans 11:33 to highlight the "unsearchable judgments" and "untraceable ways" of God, and Isaiah 55:8-9 to show that His ways are higher than our own. Therefore, to experience His mighty acts, we must forsake our own thoughts and align with His.

A powerful point made is that Jesus is the ultimate curriculum for understanding these ways. His life, ministry, and ultimate sacrifice are the very blueprint for us to follow. We are called to "imitate" Him, not just admire Him from afar. This leads to the concept of our identification with Christ—being crucified, buried, and raised with Him. This spiritual reality is what empowers us to access the "enormous riches" of God's grace and to manifest His acts.

The session concludes by challenging a common misconception: that all believers have a natural desire for the mighty acts of God. Pastor Sarah suggests that many lack this desire, which hinders them from pursuing the knowledge and understanding required. She stresses that a believer's assignment is the "expectation of heaven" and that our intent matters more to God than our actions.

This session explored the nature of God through the lens of fatherhood, emphasizing the need to re-learn God every time as He doesn't conform to formulas.

He described Zion as a "citadel" and a "satisfied place" and stressed the importance of victory in the secret closet. The message differentiated between a man's message and his story, noting that only the story truly defines the man.

A prophetic word declared a new season where technology would be the least of a believer's concern. The teaching also touched on the paradox of following Jesus that some acts of obedience may go unrewarded to build humility.

The session concluded with a focus on the new creation, a person who possesses the power to give what they were never given, and the call to always make people see Jesus.

This session centered on the characteristics of a yielded vessel and the nature of God's work.

Pastor Nigel declared the house to be a "sending house" and emphasized that true knowledge of God comes only when He reveals Himself.

He reminded the congregation that God doesn't require a large number to accomplish His purpose and that a delay can be a test of faith.

The teaching highlighted three essential qualities from the life of Jesus: yieldedness, obedience, and faithfulness. He broke down faithfulness into both working in faith and being a faithful servant, offering a practical model for being used by God

This session was a powerful prayer charge designed to empower believers for what God is doing.

Pastor B. Sarki instructed the congregation to identify three things from the camp meeting: something to remember, something to pray, and something to do.

The prayer charge was a call to action, aimed at activating the lessons learned and ensuring that the teachings would lead to enduring strength and spiritual endurance.

This message focused on the critical difference between knowing God's acts and understanding His ways. It revealed that the mighty acts of God are a direct result of understanding His methodology, systems, and patterns. The session warned against negotiating oneself out of God's will and the danger of relying on others' faith instead of cultivating one's own.

It clarified that faith is the revelation of God concerning a matter, and that this revelation is the "raw material" (or "hypostasis") that God gives in response to a desire. The teaching urged believers to take this "substance," add "works" (as instructed by God), and avoid acting on mere desires without confirming them through prayer.
