LCM Sermons

We have been given some pretty amazing gifts to the body to prepare us for our works of service. This causes us to reflect on the gift that God gives us by placing us in God-ordained teams. Whether called into the five-fold or called to be a pillar that supports the body, rest assured that you don't have to do this alone! It's so re-assuring the in God's ordained timing, he builds God-ordained tea...

What a special Sunday service we just had! In this sermon entitled “Gifted”, we celebrated the ordination of Pastor Nik Arezina, Pastor Payton Parsons, and Pastor Judah Stephens. This ordination followed the biblical pattern outlined in Numbers 8 for the ordination of the Levitical priests. We recognize that these men working as a unified team are a gift to the whole community, so that together wi...

We are learning to move in the military movement as days are darkening. God is training us, organizing us, and putting us in our military rank and file. He is building a priesthood that represents Christ to a world in such desperate need for salvation. Brothers Payton Parsons, Nik Arezina, and Judah Stephens elucidate for us the pathway by which our heavenly commander has been making us ready for...

We are learning to man our position as the battle’s rages all around us. Elder Eric, Pastor Wade and Pastor Matt delivered a timely word that helps us refocus on the mission and goal ahead. In this sermon called “The Seventh Stage of Military Movement”, we learned that every man of God is called to be a priest - first and foremost in his own home, and then overflowing to the body of Christ. Throug...

We are growing, and learning what it is to move as one man. The forefathers who built this country knew how to move as one man, tearing down tyrannical dictatorships for the sole purpose of forming a more perfect union. It’s fitting that brother’s Abimbola Daramola & Justin Linton share a message entitled In-dependence Day! They encourage us to dethrone the monarchs of self-rule shown through dece...

What a beautiful time we are living in! In this sermon entitled “Military Movement”, Elder Eric, Pastor Matt, and Pastor Wade continue to draw out the biblical gems of how we are to operate as the body of Christ. If we want to truly grow in the Kingdom, it can only be done alongside the brotherhood of believers. This brotherhood made up of many parts, is called to function and operate as one body,...

Stand up! Look ahead! Our heavenly commander is preparing us for what is to come, helping us to reassign the fixed value we place on our brothers and ourselves. With this in mind, we are arming ourselves with the same attitude as Paul, Moses, and all the saints before us who knew who they were and as a result, did great exploits. Pastor Matt and Pastor Wade arm the saints with 4 keys to unlock the...

This soul stirring sermon delivered to us by brothers, Payton, Nik, and Judah, is the call to attention that we need. “Winning the War” is more than a sermon title, it is a principle that must be demonstrated in the way of life of every believer. No Christian is an island to themselves, rather we have been called by our great King to be joined together with our brothers to attain the perfect unity...

It’s clear to see that our heavenly commander has been preparing us for the dark and glorious days before us. Through the discipline of our father, we are being trained into mature men that can be sent into the heart of the battle and rise up victorious. Elder Boz and brother Payton encourage our body with this stirring call to arms entitled "Seal Team". As America's most illustrious and revered f...

In this sermon “The Mission of a Priest”, Pastor Matt and Pastor Wade reveal and complete the last two points out of seven points based in Deuteronomy 33:8-10. We learned that priests are called to stand firm and teach others to the point of transformation and transmission; taking what they know and have experienced and making other men into what they are. This process solidifies the confidence th...

Following up to last Sunday’s message, brothers Justin and Abimbola preached this timely sermon entitled “Weight of Responsibility”. We learn that there is a weight of responsibility laid on our shoulders by our heavenly Father that brings about an ever-increasing development of the priesthood. Under this weight of responsibility, the believer undergoes a spiritual definition that is necessary for...

As we continue our "Mature Manhood" series with this second installment entitled "The Marks of a Priest", our confidence grows as we are fashioned into a mature priesthood. This is the same process we see God using to form Levi into the nation of priests that is described in Deuteronomy 33. As we continue to examine this passage, in addition to receiving discernment, being tested through tension,...

It's encouraging to see the lengths by which our father is going to make us into mature men. As we reflect on Mature Manhood: The Making of a Priest, we see how the priesthood was made. The call from our heavenly father is clear, he is making us into a holy priesthood in the exact same way. This gives us confidence that as ask for what we need of him, have the courage to give all then we will grow...

Saints, we are starting a new series called “Mature Manhood”! A deep dive into what it takes to produce true biblical maturity in the Kingdom. In this sermon entitled “The Making of a Priest”, Pastor Wade and Pastor Matt bring to the surface the hidden gems from the blessing of the tribe of Levi in Deuteronomy 33. With the Levitical Priesthood as our example, we learn the first three steps in The...

What a blessing it is to have directed steps! On Sunday we learned what it meant to follow our Big Kehunah! To ride the wave of obedience by guarding the mission or mishmeret of both our high priest and the people of God at the same time! This Wednesday we reflect of that message with the sermon “Hang 10” brought by Pastor Matt and Brother Abimbola Daramola. We learned to let all ten of our toes h...

In this sermon entitled “The Big Kehunnah” by Pastor Matt and Pastor Wade, we learned after undergoing the refinement process of what it takes to produce a priest from Numbers 8, the aim was always that the priests may be ready to do the work of the LORD! This type of work already prepared in advance demands that the priesthood guard the mission entrusted to them by the Lord. As this is true for t...

We conclude our reflections on the priest-making process with this sermon entitled "Measuring Peter and Paul's Deep Convictions". We've been talking about things like not fearing the razor, living in a joyfully willing manner towards the Lord. all so that we can show ourselves measuring up to the mature manhood of Christ! We want to be made into mature men in Christ & in the lives of Paul and Pete...

Church! We conclude the outline of the Levitical process as displayed in Numbers 8 in this sermon entitled “Hey! Don’t cut my Prunes”. Elder Eric, Pastor Wade, and Pastor Matt walk us through the beautiful imagery of the end goal of every believer; to reach mature manhood by measuring up to Christ. This maturing process of a Christian’s life is not a private, exclusive, or isolated matter, rather,...

Oh what it is to be made into a holy and righteous priesthood! Our father is blessing us with the revelation of how priests are made. We are learning to press into what will perfect us as priests with messages like "Don't fear the razor" and "A shave and two bulls". Our good father has equipped us for what is good for doing his will. We have a lot to give and that is exactly what he's asking of us...

“A Shave and Two Bulls” is more than a thought-provoking sermon title, it delivers a crushing truth that pairs along with it. Elder Eric and Pastor Matt continue in Numbers 8 with steps three and four in the seven-step process of how Priest of God are developed. We learned the importance of the Two Bull process and how it affects our lives in the Kingdom. When we have a willing heart to obey our K...

Saints! Our confidence is rising as we can see our King working in our midst! Brothers Justin and Abimbola deliver a gripping and liberating word in this sermon entitled “Exposed”. They walk us through the necessary process by which we are to be made into the priesthood of God. This purification process demands that we uncover those areas of vulnerability as we face the razor. Allowing ourselves t...

At LCM, we are walking in the victory that is ours in Christ Jesus! In this sermon entitled “Don’t Fear the Razor” by Elder Eric, Pastor Wade, and Pastor Matt, brought to life the biblical truth of the ever-increasing need of biblical discipleship and the process by which it is done. This process first illustrated in how the Lord set apart His people (Israel), teaches us that in order to be made s...

We are basking in the revelation given to us by our good father and we are beginning to grasp the word of his promises in a special way. The certainty of God's promises to Israel is settling in on us and deepening our own faith as gentiles. Brothers Abimbola Daramola and Justin Linton encourage us with the truth of God's word to his chosen sons. As gentiles, we can see how the sons of Israel respo...

We are learning to follow the leading of our Father and it is glorious! In this sermon entitled “Clarion Call”, Pastor Wade and Pastor Matt sound a call to action in an expository walk through of Numbers chapter 10. In Numbers, we learned the prescribed way of how the Lord instructed the nation of Israel to sound a clarion call for various conditions…we also must recognize the clarion call being m...

Our faithful father has surely been stirring up his church. He is getting us into alignment with his will at an exhilarating pace. The rate of this change may seem jarring at first, but Pastor Matt and Pastor Wade remind us that this is precisely what it looks like to follow the Lord's commands. Whether by day or by night, Israel consistently moved out at the Lord's direction and so must we. You s...
