SJAG Sermons

We are living in the last days. God's patience and kindness is not an excuse to be complacent, in fact — God's mercy has an appointed end. Therefore, pursue godliness, embracing this hope that we have in Christ. Everything is about to happen: it's time to live like it.

Jesus is coming back, and He wants us to be ready. Is God included in our plans? We must know our ultimate destination, in order to commit to the things that matter most to Him. Let's be alert, spiritually prepared and faithful to do what God has called us to do!

Today’s sermon challenges us to examine our hearts and reflect on our attitudes towards serving. Are we reluctant to serve, serving because we need to feel needed, or serving without God’s power and anointing? Let us reflect on our motives and remember that true servanthood comes from a humble heart, genuine love, and dependence on God’s strength.

A surrendered heart will grow in the hands of the Lord. Even lives with complex roots can be transformed and fruitful in the hands of God.

God desires to involve us in His good works, such as the incident of 5 loaves and 2 fishes with the disciples. The work is often greater than our capacity, that we may depend on Him and remember who we have. We rejoice for little becomes much in the Master's hand.

From the story of Joshua leading the Israelites into the Promised Land, we can glean truths that help us when we transition into a new season. God goes before us and invites us to follow Him, so we can be strong and courageous as we walk closely with Him and build for the next generation.

Jesus is the perfect High Priest because He is completely holy and sinless. He allows His people to approach Him, hear from Him, and live in relationship with Him. Psalm 46 doesn’t promise that believers will never experience trouble. Instead, it invites us to pause and remember that we will never have to face our troubles alone.

From the life of Abraham, we learn about worship that costs something. Costly worship sees us release what we treasure most, release our need for control and choose to trust God even when we are yet to see His provision. God is worthy of our deepest worship.

Paul urges us to offer our lives as a living sacrifice - not just on Sundays, but throughout our lives. Let us come before God with singing, dancing, clapping, and a humble posture that acknowledges that He is a great God.

How do we worship God even in the hardest of life's circumstances? Sorrowful seasons may cause us to interpret Him through our difficulties. Yet God's miracles are various: it also comes in the strength to walk through all these storms and press on. Let's declare "yet I will" today.

Who is our neighbour? We are called to serve the poor, the needy and the underprivileged regardless of race, religion and social status. We need to build lives and communities with the compassion of the Lord.

The seasons may change, but our God is everlasting and good. His grace is always enough to walk us through the ups and downs of life. Let's remember: people of faith move forward with God.

Caring Beyond Our Circle reminds us that Jesus reached beyond convenience, barriers, and exclusion to care for the Samaritan woman. Because Jesus first cared for us, we are called to care for others without judging their struggles or backgrounds. Let us take the first step of faith and intentionally create opportunities to care.

The four-fold mission of Jesus in Luke 4:18-19 must continue to be the church’s mission. We are to care about the salvation and needs of others, pointing them to Jesus. Let's continue to be a healing community that fulfils God's picture of restoration!

In our journey with God, we need to catch the vision that God has placed on our hearts, work at it with all hearts, and trust that He will bring that vision to fulfilment. For whatever good work the Lord has begun, He will surely bring to completion.

The church in Philippi showed that missions is a shared calling. Through generous hearts, passionate faith, and practical support for Paul, they turned partnership into a beautiful act of worship. A partnership in the kingdom of God is a partnership that is blessed.

As Pentecostals, we have been empowered by the baptism of the Holy Spirit for the purpose of missions. The purpose is as important as the power. Let's not forget the mission entrusted to us - to get souls saved, and let's never forget the Source of our power.

In the missions field, there is an ongoing spiritual war. Here, Rev. Leonora A. Catipon shares her missions story, a reminder to embrace God's calling in our lives. He equip the willing. Importantly, remember that we are destined to win this war with God on our side.

God has called His Church to proclaim the Gospel to all nations before the end comes. Faith comes when people hear, believe in Jesus, and are saved. This is not only for missionaries but for every believer. God’s plan is to gather people from every nation into one redeemed family who will worship Him forever through Jesus Christ. How am I personally taking part in His mission today?

Anyone can build a wall. But it takes a wise person, filled with love and kindness, to build bridges that mend relationships. Christ shows us a divine model for what it means to reconcile the lost to God’s kingdom, so that we may be bridge builders.

Who are the people holding your trampoline? Romans 16 reminds us that we are one family in Christ, called to work together for God’s purpose and to honour one another. As Paul recognized and appreciated those who served faithfully, we can be encouraged that God sees our service, values us, and honours His people. Let us continue to support one another as we work together in God’s kingdom.

Discrimination has no place in the gospel-centred church. Let's build an environment that welcomes people of all ages, size, class and more — for this is the biblical command. Be steadfast in God's Word and extend grace in all matters. It's time to create a space that practices patience and support, emulating the accepting love of Jesus Christ.

What is your heart burning for? The fire of the Holy Spirit transforms a person. We need to desire Him more than the things of this world. Only then, we can be filled with this supernatural power to impact lives. Let's seek fresh wind today.

The Spirit of God was present at creation, at the incarnation and at the birth of the church. He continues to impact the life and worship of the church as our Helper, through His creative gifts and leading. Let's be aware of His empowering, and respond to His prompting today!

Only when we stand strong in the spirit, can we reach out in love to others. Let's build our character and stay alert in prayer. We praise as it is a declaration of trust unto Him who is able.
