In this combined series taught during vigil, Pastor Tolu Ayeni shared on why church should be more than surface-level preaching — it should be a place of deep teaching that builds conviction, grounded in Scripture from both the Old and New Testaments. He talked about the true work of ministry: being shepherds who not only preach but also disciple, guide, and care for people’s lives.

He also mentioned that real church growth isn’t about numbers or titles, but about teaching, prayer, and actively winning souls. Leadership, we learn, is about being present, living as examples, and staying rooted in sound doctrine — not for our convenience, but for the growth and protection of the flock God has entrusted to us.

In this episode, we explore the assurance of salvation through faith in Christ — not by works, but by grace. We’re reminded that we are part of God’s family, sealed with the Holy Spirit who is both our guide and our guarantee. Even when we don’t feel it, God is with us. We also dive into the power of the Holy Spirit, who not only lives in us but comes upon us to empower, guide, and demonstrate God’s goodness to the world.

In this sermon, we explore what it truly means to be saved — not just as a moment in time, but as a new identity in Christ. We’re reminded that salvation is by grace through faith, not by works, yet it is meant to produce good works. Being saved means we are now God’s children, called saints, empowered to live holy, righteous lives. True faith is shown by a transformed character, not by empty claims.

We also discussed the importance of seeing salvation not as a license to sin but as a call to live differently — in obedience, godliness, and purpose. If God lives in us, our lives should reflect it.

In this episode of the Salvation Essentials Series, Pastor Tolu Ayeni took us through what it truly means to be saved. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 15:1–11, Colossians 1, Romans 10, and more, we’re reminded that salvation doesn’t come from being born into a Christian home, changing habits, or doing good works — it comes from hearing the Gospel and believing in Jesus Christ.

We stand firm on the message we received: Christ died and rose again for our sins. It’s not about striving; it’s about faith. Good works follow salvation, but they do not cause it. Even “good” people still need the Gospel, just like Cornelius in Acts 10.

We also talk about resisting the lies of the enemy, guarding our thoughts, and affirming our identity in Christ. Grace is not a license to sin — it empowers us to say no to sin and live righteously. We are now born of God, dead to sin, and called to good works.

Salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone — but the faith that saves never stands alone.

In this episode of the Salvation Essentials Series, we look at how Paul’s deep, persuasive teaching built real conviction in the early church — reminding us that church should help us truly know what we believe. We also explore the powerful truth that through Christ’s sacrifice, we already have redemption, forgiveness, and righteousness now — not by our efforts, but by faith alone. Free from guilt and fear, we’re called to live boldly, rest in God’s grace, and walk daily in the freedom Christ has secured for us.

In this sermon titled Saved by Believing, Pastor Tolu Ayeni reminds us that God doesn’t want to be distant—He wants to be known. Just like a loving father makes himself understood, God reveals Himself clearly through Jesus. We explore how becoming part of God’s family isn’t about striving or trying harder—it’s about believing. Through Christ, we’ve been given full access to God’s household, not by our works, but by grace.

We talk about how salvation isn’t a future hope—it’s a present reality. You're not “trying” to be God’s child—you already are. With the Spirit of God living in us, we walk as sons, not strangers. Tune in to be reminded that you’re fully accepted, deeply loved, and forever part of God’s family.

In this episode of the Spirit Filled Assembly, Pastor Tolu Ayeni unpacked the bold, faith-filled life we're called to as believers. It's not about religion—it’s about a real relationship with Jesus and the courage to share that with others. He also talked about owning our identity in Christ, using our God-given will to choose boldness, and stepping out in faith no matter how we feel. From praying with power to preaching with confidence, this is your call to stir up the gifts, speak the Word, and walk in boldness every day. If you’ve been waiting for a sign to go all in—this is it!

In this episode, Pastor Tolu Ayeni taught on why Scripture urges us to desire spiritual gifts — not just speaking in tongues, but also prophecy that edifies others. We discuss the importance of interpreting tongues so it becomes meaningful to the church, and how spiritual gifts should be used in order and humility, without exaggeration.

We also look at why spiritual gifts don’t prove spiritual maturity or good character — gifts are not fruits. Instead, believers should keep growing in character, remain humble, and stay rooted in their local church, giving faithfully through it rather than chasing blessings elsewhere.
