John Wasserman Podcast

Drawing from Hebrews 3–4, Romans 5, and Hebrews 6, Pastor Andre unpacks what it means to daily surrender our hearts and labor to enter God’s divine rest. Just as the Old Testament cities of refuge provided sanctuary, Jesus Christ is our true High Priest and refuge whose sacrifice secures our complete freedom and salvation. Discover how standing firm in God's grace transforms us from enemies into s...

The Power of Baptism | Pastor JD by John Wasserman

In this sermon, we explore why the Apostle Paul resolved to know nothing except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. Far from being a limitation, this decision stands as a declaration of where all true power, wisdom, and transformation are found. What We Cover in This Message: The Character of God: How the cross serves as the ultimate revelation of God's character. The Mystery of the Savior: Understand...

The sermon centers on the transformative power of the crucified Christ and its direct connection to entering God's rest. Pastor J.D. draws a distinction between striving in human effort and striving in faith, emphasizing that true rest is not passivity but an active, trusting relationship with God rooted in what Jesus accomplished on the cross. Through an exploration of Hebrews 4, the sermon chall...

Glory Conference | Returning to Heavens Blueprint | Elma Jacobs by John Wasserman

This sermon explores the nature of God's heart toward humanity, drawing a parallel between God's relentless pursuit of Israel throughout the Old Testament and His ongoing pursuit of believers today. The pastor emphasizes that God sees, hears, and knows every struggle His people face, and that He always responds with compassion and faithfulness. A central theme is the distinction between a hardened...

Men are called to be a blessing in many aspects of life, but it can only be accomplished by them looking into the face of Jesus, not by their own strength. Jesus gives power to the faint and weary who waits upon him. A word from Him has energising power. Waiting on him, and receiving his love for you, will impart to you what you need to shine Christ into this earth and fulfil what He has called an...

This sermon explores the relationship between a guarded heart, a surrendered heart, and the believer's inheritance in Christ. Drawing primarily from Ephesians 1 and Proverbs 4, the pastor teaches that every believer has already been given a rich spiritual inheritance through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, encompassing redemption, adoption, forgiveness, the Holy Spirit, and identity in...

This sermon explores the condition and posture of the human heart in relation to God, building on previous weeks of teaching about the heart as the foundation of the Christian life. The pastor draws from Proverbs 4 to show that when God's word enters through our hearing and sight and takes root in our hearts, it transforms our speech, our vision, and our walk. A central theme is that a surrendered...

Pastor J.D. delivered a message centered on the truth that we do not simply see life as it is, but rather through the condition of our hearts. Drawing from the stories of David and the teachings of Jesus, the sermon explored how hardship, offense, and trials either harden our hearts or draw us closer to God. When we surrender our hearts to God, He begins to transform them, and out of that transfor...

This sermon explores the biblical concept of sadness (itzavon) as God's beacon call for hearts to return to Him. Building on previous teachings about preparing and guarding the heart, Pastor Andre examines how sorrow serves as a divine indicator that things are not as they ought to be. The message traces God's redemptive plan from the Fall through Noah, Jacob, Job, Ruth, and ultimately to Christ—t...

This sermon explores the theological significance of sadness and sorrow as divine signals calling us back into right relationship with God. Pastor Andre examines the Hebrew concepts of sorrow (tzivon), comfort (nacham), and appreciation/acknowledgment (hoda'a) to demonstrate how God uses emotional pain not as punishment, but as a beacon calling us to restoration. The message traces humanity's rela...

Our words carry more power than we often realize. In this encouraging message, Rose Zanninelli unpacks what the Bible teaches about the life-giving or destructive power of our speech. Through Scriptures such as Proverbs 18:21, Matthew 12, and Proverbs 15, we're reminded that our words reveal our hearts, shape our relationships, and have the ability to bring healing, hope, and encouragement. Be cha...

This sermon explores God's desire for a transformed heart rather than mere outward obedience. Drawing from Israel's repeated failures throughout the Old Testament, the message reveals how God promised a new heart through the prophets, ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Jesus embodied what Israel was meant to be—the faithful son with a perfect heart devoted to God. Through Christ's ministry, dea...

The sermon explored Proverbs 4:23, which calls us to guard our hearts with all vigilance because from it flow the springs of life. We examined how the heart—the very core of who we are—is the center of our thoughts, decisions, will, moral character, and spiritual life. God is stirring something in the atmosphere, calling us higher by creating a deeper hunger for His presence. We discovered that tr...

In this heartfelt and honest conversation, Mom Bev Wasserman reflects on what the Holy Spirit has taught her in this season of her life. With vulnerability, wisdom, and faith, she shares how God's presence, comfort, and guidance have sustained her through one of life's most challenging journeys. This is not a sermon, but a sincere testimony of God's faithfulness and the lessons learned while walki...

The sermon explored how our identity as children of God is often the primary target of the enemy's attacks, just as it was with Jesus in the wilderness and at the cross. We examined how Jesus' first temptation after His baptism was an attack on His identity ("If you are the Son of God..."), and how the same strategy is used against believers today. The good news is that through salvation, we have...

This deeply personal and vulnerable sermon explores the theme of being held by God through life's difficulties and uncertainties. The pastor emphasizes that God is not distant but intimately close, seeing us in our struggles and holding us through every season. Drawing from Paul's letter to the Corinthians, the message focuses on God as the Father of all compassion and comfort who holds us in our...

Prophet Bobby Legere delivers a powerful message about running the race God has set before us, particularly in the context of transitioning after the passing of Pastor John. The sermon emphasizes the importance of keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus as the author and finisher of our faith, rather than being distracted by circumstances, storms, or the enemy's attacks. Drawing from Hebrews 12, the messa...

Begotten or Adoption | Andre Blignaut by John Wasserman

This powerful exploration of Palm Sunday takes us far beyond the familiar image of Jesus riding into Jerusalem on a donkey. We discover that this triumphant entry was actually the moment the Lamb of God presented Himself for inspection, mirroring the Passover lamb chosen on the 10th day of Nisan and examined for four days before sacrifice. The crowds shouted 'Hosanna'—a Hebrew cry meaning 'Save no...

We have to be intentional about things, first knowing, and then doing, even as Moses intentionally prepared and anointed Joshua for succeeding him as the leader of Israel. Sadly, Joshua did not do the same, leaving Israel in chaos when he died, during which time everyone did what was right in their own eyes. – the very way in which our modern society is operating. During this chaotic time of Israe...
