The Bible reveals that there will be two resurrections—but the first one is wrapped in a profound mystery.

Most people hear the word “judgment” and feel dread—but for the believer, there is a judgment that brings hope, not fear, celebration, and no condemnation!
The Bible speaks of the Judgment Seat of Christ—a moment not of condemnation, but of celebration. This isn’t about punishment or rejection. It’s not about whether you get into heaven. It’s about rewards. It’s where Jesus reveals and honors you for every act of love, faith, and obedience.
At this judgment, every flaw and failure will be eradicated forever. There will be no shame—No fear—only rewards. This is the moment where your eternal purpose in the thousand-year reign with Christ on Earth will be revealed.
Join me this week as we uncover how to live for eternity—how to lay up treasures in heaven that can never be lost. In this life, you have the opportunity to create an eternal impact. Let’s discover this great event together!

The Bible tells us that Jesus loves justice—but why?
When we discover the love and wisdom woven into God’s justice, we step into a new way of living. We become more mindful of our actions, how we treat others, and whether we are truly being led by the Spirit.
Most importantly, those who love justice are able to receive our justice—won for us in Christ. It is a profound act of divine justice that we are forgiven of our sins, invited to share in His inheritance, and empowered to live a life far better than we deserve.
But until we fully love and trust God’s justice, we will always limit what we can receive in Christ.
Join me this week as we begin to unravel the mystery of The Ultimate Justice. Your breakthrough into freedom, peace, and purpose could begin with this revelation.

Revelation 20:13 tells us that every person will be judged according to their works. But doesn’t that seem to contradict the truth that no one can be saved by their works? Yes, it does—at first glance! So, how do we reconcile these two realities?

When you came to Jesus, you acknowledged your guilt. You accepted the verdict: unworthy of salvation on your own. You recognized your need for a Savior.

According to John 5:24, everyone who hears and receives Christ’s word—and believes in the One who sent Him—has already accepted their judgment. They have passed from death into life!

Join me this week as we explore The Final Reconciliation—a powerful revelation of peace and purpose for every believer who has crossed from death into life. You don’t have to live in fear of judgment when you have embraced His grace! You never have to live another minute in fear and condemnation!

God is not hiding from you—He longs to be known and trusted. After all, how can we have a genuine relationship with someone we don’t truly know? Even more essential is the faith factor. Without faith, it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6). But how can we trust someone we don’t understand?
The question so many ask is this: How can I come to know Him?
The answer begins with the very first commandment that says, “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain” (Exodus 20:7). This isn't just about using His name irreverently—it’s about misunderstanding or misrepresenting who He truly is.
Every name of God reveals an aspect of His character and a promise He has made to you. His names aren’t just titles—they are truths backed by His integrity. When you know His names, you’ll begin to understand His heart. And when you understand His heart, trust comes naturally.
For example, when we call Him Jehovah Shalom, the Lord our Peace, we dishonor that name if we then accuse Him of bringing chaos into our lives. That is taking His name in vain. When we know Him as Jehovah Rapha, the Lord who heals, yet blame Him for our sickness, we are rejecting the very identity He has revealed to us.
Most of us hold onto vain notions of God’s character and nature. Therefore, we don’t know Him as He is; we know a concept of Him that is man-made! We have accepted how religious tradition characterizes God, rather than knowing and trusting how He describes Himself.
Join me this week as we discover The Ultimate Foundation—a journey that will open your heart to see God as He truly is. When you see God clearly:
Your struggle with faith fades,
Your confidence in Him soars, and
His voice becomes unmistakable in your heart.
God’s promises are inseparably linked to His names. When you know and trust those names, you will walk with unshakable confidence in every promise He has made.

One of the most consistent warnings in the New Testament is to guard against offense.
We often think of an offense as something that hurts our feelings, but in reality, it’s something far more dangerous. An offense is anything that causes us to stumble or lose our footing in the faith. That’s why the Apostle Paul urges us to “gird our feet with the Gospel of Peace.”
In the ancient world, maintaining your footing was essential to surviving any battle. The same is true today in the spiritual battles we face. If we stumble at the word of God, we will fall!
Over the years, I’ve been asked this question by pastors and leaders around the world: “Why are people so easily offended?”
Even after more than half a century of active ministry, I remain amazed at how easily believers fall into offense, not just with one another, but even with God. And while it might seem like a mystery, the answer is simple: most 21st-century believers lack a deep foundation in the New Covenant. Many don’t fully understand what Jesus accomplished through His death, burial, and resurrection. All this is because we don’t know how to understand the Scripture!
Yet God has given us everything we need. Through His Word, He provides explicit instruction. The Holy Spirit is our internal teacher. He brings us to a place of understanding and guides us step-by-step until we reach victory and safety!
Join me this week as we explore how to become Stable, Secure, and Immovable in our faith.
No more offense. No more stumbling. Just a life anchored in peace, strength, and confidence in God!

Walking in faith is all about trust. But this trust is more than simply believing the Scripture in our minds—it’s about persuading our hearts to believe the Word of God and trusting Him enough to follow the Holy Spirit wherever and however He leads! If we neglect either of these, our faith will fall short, and we will miss the consistent, powerful outcomes God has promised.
Galatians 6:9 tells us, “In due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.” Many believers think “due season” is when God finally decides to respond to our faith. But the truth is—God is ready right now to fulfill His promises. The delay is not on His side. Often, it’s the obstacles, distractions, and snares around us—and the doubts within us—that hinder us from receiving.
When Galatians speaks of “due season,” it’s not about God’s clock ticking—it’s about our readiness. The word “season” means opportune time. The word “due” means your own time. Put together, it means that your “due season” is the moment you are prepared to receive. God’s season is always now. “Today is the day!” (2 Corinthians 6:2)
In my new series, Understanding the Times and Knowing What to Do, we’ll explore how God is always eager to fulfill every promise He’s made—and how our own hearts, thoughts, and circumstances can block us from stepping into what’s already ours in Christ. You’ll learn how to walk in step with the Holy Spirit so that you move in perfect timing… and finally see God’s promises come alive in your life.
Don’t miss this life-changing teaching—your “due season” could start today!

When I first gave my life to the Lord Jesus, I threw everything onto Him.
My life was a wreck, and I desperately needed Him—
 …in every decision,
 …in every crisis,
 …and even to help me handle my successes!
Needless to say, I had a fervent, consistent prayer life. But when answers seemed slow to come, the “old timers” would say, “Be patient—God will answer in His own time.”
I knew they meant well, but something in me felt they were simply repeating what they had heard, without truly understanding what the Bible teaches about times, seasons, and opportunities.
Then, God led me through a powerful time of prayer and Bible study that opened my eyes to understand His timing. I realized that many “old saints,” though sincere, didn’t have a clear understanding of these issues. But when I grasped what Scripture really says about God’s timing, my walk with Him changed forever.
It made me patient as I stepped into His promises. I stopped panicking when answers seemed delayed. I understood that patience is not just waiting—it’s a vital, faith-filled force that keeps us from wavering, so we can receive what God is freely giving (James 1:4–7).
Join me this week for a message that will end impatience, silence doubt, and give you the confidence to know that God hears you every time you pray: Times, Season & Opportunities!

We are living in a world where truth has become harder than ever to recognize. With the rise of artificial intelligence, we can no longer trust everything we see or hear. Photos and videos may look real, but many are artificially created. Deception is spreading rapidly, and Jesus warned us that this is one of the signs that the world is moving closer to the most difficult tribulation humanity has ever faced.
This isn’t just a battle of information—it’s a supernatural attack against the entire human race. Surviving these times isn’t possible through human strength or wisdom alone. We need the power, wisdom, and guidance of our supernatural God to walk in victory. The good news is this: God foresaw these days and has already provided everything we need not just to survive, but to overcome!
Jesus made a powerful promise: “I will not leave you as orphans.” He assured us that the Holy Spirit would be poured out so that every believer could experience His presence personally. During His time on earth, Jesus could only be in one place at a time. But the Holy Spirit is everywhere, with each of us individually—guiding, protecting, empowering, and teaching, no matter where we are in the world.
This week, in my series “Understanding the Times and Knowing What to Do,” I will take you on a journey into the heart of the Holy Spirit’s leadership and power. You will discover how to hear His voice, follow His direction, and walk in divine wisdom. You will learn how to discern what is truly happening in the world and how to respond with the insight of God Himself.
I want to share with you the secrets of moving with the Holy Spirit in these perilous times. This teaching is more than information—it’s preparation for what’s ahead. Don’t miss this life-changing message, and be sure to watch the supporting video so you can experience the truth and empowerment God has prepared for you!
