MY GOSPEL @ Desmond R Singh

Our attitude towards the word of God and His ministry reflects our attitude towards our heavenly Father. Brother Singh chastised those of us, at the Mississauga Assembly, who were too busy this morning to attend service online. COVID-19 has placed unprecedented demands on our lives to be sure. Online services are not ideal, but God has ordained this method of worshipping Him collectively as a subs...

Brother Singh demonstrates that all the prophets and apostles were processed and approved by God.  And He still maintains His ministry on earth today using the same method. Admittedly being called by God is a heady experience, even for the humblest of men. For that reason, the wilderness process kills the ego and personal ambition—yet it steels the individual's resolve only to accomplish only...

In this lesson, Brother Sam (a senior elder) states that God gave us a ministry equipped to open God's word under the anointing of the Holy Ghost, put concepts together, and teach those whose minds God has illuminated to understand truth. Jesus prayed, "Sanctify them through thy truth: {Father} thy word is truth." (John 17:17) False doctrines and errant concepts cannot sanctify anyone.   Prob...

Our hope —immortality, or eternal life (Romans 2:7)—is based on Biblical reality. Yet, many who claim to have Christ cannot make this their reality, for their hope is based on fantasy. The fantasy started in the garden of Eden when the serpent convinced Eve that she would not surely die if she ate the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Genesis 3:4). Since that day, many Christi...

In a most enlightening lesson, Brother Singh draws from Paul's epistle to the Ephesians to demonstrate God's process in the lives of the elect When we read Paul's epistles, we seldom consider the timeline of the apostle's ministry and the process he had to endure. From Paul's conversion until his death was about 28-30 years. It is not obvious that nearly half that time (14 years) was spent in isol...

No one had more compassion for the sick and the defenseless than Jesus. He preached the gospel to the poor, the brokenhearted, the captives, and the blind. Yet this man of tender mercy demanded that his disciples build grit.  Discipleship demands that having put our hand to the plow, we never look back! (Luke 9:62) Brother Singh's exhortation today urges us to persevere through every ordeal....

God does not call everyone who listens to the gospel of Jesus Christ to understand and accept it. Jesus explained to the disciples why he spoke in parables: "it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them, it is not given" (Matthew 13:11). "Them" referred to the scribes and Pharisees, the religious elite of the day. The elite leaders were thoroughly acquainted wit...

Many misconceptions of the role of the Holy Spirit exist. Misunderstandings exist for two primary reasons: Lack of Biblical truth and flawed understanding of personal experiences. In this crucial message, God helps us untangle our confusion by leading Brother Singh's mind to open to us Biblical reality. We must understand our dual nature: We are born as flesh and blood but with a natural inclinati...

Brother Singh challenges us with this statement: "If I preach a lesson that offends you, figure out what it is that makes you feel that way. Is it God or a demon? The apostle Paul stated, "If our gospel is hidden {or veiled} it is hidden to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the...

The devil can make us feel like we are doing the right thing in Jesus' name when our worship and service to God are in vain. Paul's fear for the Corinthian church was that their minds be corrupted from the simplicity and the purity of Christ. (See 2 Corinthians 11:3) It seems that his fears were well-founded. Just as "the serpent in his craftiness deceived Eve," Corinth was seduced by Apollos, who...

The commissioning of the disciples (Matthew 10) was the beginning of Christ's called ministry. The disciples sent out without money and only the clothes on their back. Jesus instructed them to cure the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons. He explained, "You freely received cleansing; give it without expecting payment. " (Mt. 10:8)Today, we market the gospel like every other c...

Every called man of God is processed before he can fulfill the ministry intended for him. Scripture is full of examples that we tend to ignore. While by faith Moses refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, we forget that he murdered an Egyptian overlord in his carnal strength. That impetuous act drove him into the wilderness for forty years to escape justice. Yet, in God’s plan, it prov...

Brother Singh challenges us to follow him as he follows the Lord. It is 21st Century arrogance that causes some people to believe that the God-called ministers are ordinary men, who we listen to at our discretion. People in the early church understood differently: "And you became followers of us {the ministry}, and the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with the joy of the Holy Gho...

As Ontario Canada plunges back into a very strict "stay at home protocol" due to the 3rd wave of COVID-19, Brother Singh reminds us that trials, tribulations, and testing must process the elect! The circumstances that judge the ungodly chasten God's children. Yet we often fail to recognize and value the process. If we fail to respond appropriately, God will deal with us much more severely. He alwa...

Following the miracle of the loaves and fishes, Jesus reminded the crowd of followers not to labor for the food that perishes but rather for food that results in eternal life.  Yes, typical of so many of us, the Jews asked for a sign from Jesus so that they might see it and believe.  Jesus finally explained, "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and whoever b...

This post is an unexpected sequel to "The Church & The Harlot" (03-31-21). God directs Brother Singh's messages by guiding his mind and preaching at the podium. The church today is emerging from 2000 years of apostasy. While we strive for the pure doctrine of Christ and the apostles, we do not know precisely how the early church was built or functioned. We are wearing "stained garments," presu...

Brother Desmond Singh reminds us that the Book of Revelations is a book of symbols. The visions the apostle John received on the isle of Patmos were prophetic glimpses into the future concerning end-time events. Hence in Revelations, we see Christ's church described in Chapter 12 as a virtuous woman clothed with the sun. By contrast, in Chapter 17, we discover a whore described as representing fal...

It is one thing to read Galatians 1:4, "{Jesus} gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world..." Yet, it is quite another reality to comprehend, that we need deliverance ... Although we claim freedom in Christ, most of us remain captives," as Brother Desmond Singh establishes. Self-denial is difficult for us because we are trapped in a world that is Egyptian in...

Brother Singh sees the strong possibility of COVID-19 (or its variants) remaining with us for a very long time. He warns that the day may soon come when we will long to hear the word of God preached but be unable to find it. If our Lord warned Ephesus, he could snatch away their candlestick (Revelation 2:5), how could we possibly consider ourselves immune to the same judgment?

There are two aspects to salvation. The first is being saved from our sins; the second is salvation from this present evil world. Everyone can quote John 3:16, yet if this is the only part of salvation we understand, we  are missing half of God's plan: "Jesus gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father." (Galati...

Brother Desmond Singh categorically states, "COVID-19 is a means of chastisement to remind God's people of the reality of serving Him, and the consequences of disobedience." From a personal perspective, this trial has been a period of growth for our pastor, and he is grateful that it has caused him to draw closer to God and seek His will for the Church. Our Lord's goal is "present to himself a glo...

In today's message, Brother Singh focused a glimpse of God—a revelation—that would cause us to reverence Him at all times, especially in His sanctuary. God said through Moses:  "Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy: for I the LORD your God am holy ...  I am the LORD your God." (Leviticus 19:2 & 4) "You shall ... reverence my s...

Massive crowds praising Jesus and seeking health and prosperity seem to contradict "the way" taught by Jesus.  Yet, people have different interpretations of scripture, and they will follow the vision of their leaders. Nevertheless, holiness is more important than doctrinal agreement. A man whose heart is right before God may be in better standing than one who ascribes to the letter of the law...

The title of today's lesson reflects three basic tendencies prevalent in the lives of God's people throughout history: Idolatry, nostalgic tradition, and failure to maintain God's "due order." It is in the heart of men to worship, but with that desire come gods of our own choosing. 

As the second wave of  COVID-19 eases, we anticipate the reestablishment of our regular worship services. Brother Singh contends that if the Church had been functioning to God's satisfaction, He would not have chastised as we were for the past year. Our Pastor will make changes to our worship. The "due order" ( 1 Chronicles 15:13 )will be reestablished. Jesus hates iniquity, thus holiness wil...
