In this final session on spiritual warfare, Phil Mason took his audience on a journey of exploring the skills of defensive warfare. We are always engaged in spiritual warfare because the devil doesn’t go on holiday. 

To become ‘more than a conqueror’ and an overcomer, we must avail ourselves of the full protective gear God provides for us as we step onto the battlefield. Every piece of spiritual armour contributes to our complete protection from everything the powers of darkness throw at us. 

Understanding the significance of each piece of armour referenced in Ephesians 6 informs us of the nature of the battle we are facing. This is essential equipping for every follower of Christ. We hope you have enjoyed this series!

As we continue our series on the Life of the Warrior, Maria brings us a powerful message about some key skills for the battle. In Psalm 144:1 we read: "Praise be to the Lord my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle." David knew the secret to victory! Before you defeat your Goliath, before you go to war, before you move the mountain... we must undergo training! 

Our mindset for the battle truly matters, and we must arm our minds with this understanding. More than anything, we must choose to be trained. We must decide to follow “God’s program” to become great warriors! 

David understood the key to producing radical warriors, and it wasn't about training with spears and swords; it was in the secret place! He taught his men to be adored by God—to be embraced with the intimacy of Heaven. They were anointed because they pursued the anointing! They recognised that the secret to overcoming was intimacy with God. 

Many people are hesitant to fully exercise their authority these days for a variety of reasons, with a significant one being the fear of being cancelled. Maria shared ten reflexes for warfare fitness! Ten responses to stay ahead of the battle. We enforce the victory because He is the victory! We are on the winning team with Jesus! "Let the weak say- I am strong!"

In this message Phil Mason explores what God has already done in us through the new birth, versus what He is now doing in us as we follow Him as He leads us into freedom. 

There are several factors that remain active in the life of the Christian until we learn how to deactivate them. The world, the flesh, and the devil all continue to exercise influence in our lives until we learn how to cut off these influences through the power of the cross and the power of the blood of Christ. These dark and sinister influences can persist in the life of an unguarded Christian who doesn’t understand the power and authority that Christ has given us to become, in his words, “overcomers!” 

The challenge for each of us is to overcome the world, the flesh, the devil, sin, demonic infiltration, generational strongholds, and emotional brokenness. 

Jesus has made full provision for our complete freedom, but we must learn how to activate the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives and deactivate every dark thing that seeks to rule and dominate our lives. 

We hope this message is a blessing to everyone and will encourage you in your ongoing journey to pursue the life of an overcomer.

In our second installment from the Life of The Warrior series,  we explore what it means to walk in true spiritual authority and how authority in God’s Kingdom is rooted in deep intimacy with God.  

As He walked out his life as a man under authority, Jesus modelled a life fully surrendered to His heavenly Father, His power came from this deep relationship.

As sons and daughters of God, we are invited to walk in that same closeness where trust, obedience, and love unlock spiritual authority. 

This message is a call to draw near, abide in Him, and discover the strength that comes from being intimately related to God.

In this new series, Phil Mason introduces the spiritual warfare paradigm through the lens of King David and his role as warrior-king, appointed and anointed by God to lead Israel into battle.

Every battle David won built up his personal testimony of God’s loyal love [hesed]. He never lost a battle in all his time as king. David was a hesed warrior, and he is the template for every New Covenant son and daughter.

The loyal love of Father God motivates and compels us to take our place on the battlefield and stand as hesed warriors, anointed to fight the Lord’s battles, not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities and powers that cause widespread human destruction. 

There is a great paradox. Love leads us into war. If you want to be commissioned as a hesed warrior and discover the battles the Lord wants you to fight, this podcast is for you.

Jim gave our Easter Sunday message, sharing about the Invitation into Surrender.
All relationships have a price, and deep relationships cost deeply. Pay any price to be in the community because even though it’s costly, it is worth it! 

Jim shares how Jesus paid the price for deep relationships on the cross and how we can respond by surrendering to the deep relationship God desires with us. 

Jesus modelled a supernatural surrender amid suffering and even betrayal, showing us what love looked like! Surrender feels wrong, but it’s so right and produces incredible fruit in our lives. It is always a good day for surrender!

The Book of Acts is a hoot! Starting with the day of Pentecost, we see a massive outpouring of God's power and grace! This cataclysmic event set the disciples up for a lifestyle of miracles and gift-based ministry. 

The disciples continued steadfastly in prayer because they had learned from their teacher to cultivate a prayer reflex. At times, they were overwhelmed by their calling until they understood that prayer was the key to unlocking the resources of heaven! 

They had been commissioned to do miracles and needed to understand their source. Fortunately, Jesus had taught them! The Lord taught them to embrace a simple, childlike prayer reflex. No fanfare, no striving, just simple faith in the Father! 

Our prayer life matters because it most clearly expresses our connection to the Lord. Life makes sense when we learn to respond this way; even our betrayals and losses call us to a deeper connection in prayer! God uses everything to draw us to prayer! 

Maria discusses several fruits revealed through a prayer life in the New Testament, but her greatest lesson in this message is that prayer releases God's glory. We were created for the glory and to operate in miracles; if you want to witness it, start praying and commit to a steadfast prayer life that is unwavering in Him.

Joe continues the Series Acts 2:42 and shares on group identity in a Christian context drawn from 1 Peter 2:9, which declares believers as a "chosen people," a royal priesthood called to proclaim God's light. This identity is anchored in community, not individuality.

Using the Beatitudes from Mark's Gospel as a framework, the values of humility, mercy, and peacemaking shape this collective identity. The poor in spirit, those who mourn, and the meek are blessed, illustrating a group rooted in dependence on God, not worldly strength.

Together, these truths call Christians to unite in living out their shared identity as a countercultural testimony of grace and hope.

In this message, we explore the transformative role of joy in our spiritual journey. Building on last week’s teaching on Hesed—God’s steadfast love—we dive into the neuroscience behind joy and its impact on our identity, healing, and relationships. 

Scripture and science agree that we are wired for joy, and that transformation happens in our lives as we position ourselves to experience the Father’s delight. 

Drawing from 2 Corinthians 3:18, 1 John 3, and the story of the prodigal son, this message reveals how joy strengthens community, restores hearts, and fast-tracks us into deeper intimacy with God. 

Joy is not just an emotion; it is a relational reality that breaks fear, heals hearts, builds belonging, and transforms us into the image of our Heavenly Father. God is looking to remove every veil and blockage to intimacy in our lives, in order that we might step into ever increasing measures of freedom and breakthrough.

This message is an invitation to encounter His delight afresh so that we can step into the fullness of our identity as His beloved child!

Acts 2:42 describes the first church community, birthed on the Day of Pentecost. The outpouring of the Father’s love and the power of the Holy Spirit welded together a high-hesed community united by the shared experience of God’s hesed; His loyal, unfailing love that builds powerful bonds of attachment love to God and one another. 

This high water mark forever stands as the benchmark of true Spirit-filled community where everyone is under the revival anointing of ‘Hesed va Emet,’ where all the believers were gripped and electrified by God’s ‘mercy and truth.’ 

The Holy Spirit continually seeks to reenact this ‘charismatic moment’ where all the believers are swept up together in the flow of Hesed va Emet. The Holy Spirit is always at work to build high-hesed communities that replicate the experience of the early church gripped by divine love, power, glory, and truth. We hope you enjoy this message from Phil Mason.
