The Rock City Church

A prideful heart is a terrifying condition that is both dangerous and deadly. As we grow spiritually, God warns us about pride and instructs us to flee from it! Let's take a look at this sermon entitled "PRIDE: The Head of All Sin" and see that when God brings pride to our attention, it’s not to shame us, but to save us!

Envy renders its victims miserable and unhappy! It gives birth to many other sins! So be wise! Watch for its patterns before it spread out like cancer in our bones!

Anger can destroy relationships, robs joy and peace, and ravage human emotions. When we fail to deal with it properly, it can quickly grow into something dangerous that may get out of control. It is our choice in every area of our lives whether to continue fueling our angry emotions or to take a stand and with God's help, break its grip on us! 💪🏻

Rejoice! He is ALIVE! Jesus disarmed every power that could take a stand against us and conquered both sin and death and sealed within our hearts the guarantee of eternal life!

Are you allowing yourself to be gripped by the danger of GREED? A lot of people often place a higher priority on MATERIAL things rather than their relationship with God and it becomes a stronghold for them in their spiritual journey. Church, keep in mind that everything you own belongs to God, make sure to use it for His own glory! ❤️

Sloth is beyond the word “laziness.” But it exposes more of what is in our hearts. The REAL condition of our hearts. We lose sight of our focus and purpose because of this silent killer. And if slothfulness continues in our ways, we may eventually engage in wicked behaviour that may result in personal ruin. Don’t let laziness steal your passion, dreams, and purpose in life! It's time to get back u...

Gluttony is the most acceptable sin these days. It is the OVERINDULGENCE or OVERCONSUMPTION of just about anything. So Church, let us not take light of this sin for it is just the equal of all other sins. Let’s be mindful that our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit so let’s be a good steward and take good care of it.

A lot of issues in the heart will be exposed through our series “The Seven Deadly Sins”. To start of with the deadly sin of Lust — Do you want to overcome this sin but it’s making you a hard time? Do you want to learn more how you could experience freedom from this enslaving sin? We pray that this message will minister to you. We encourage you to watch till the end. 😊

Part 2 of our Restoration of Joy (The Joy Found In Obeying The Scripture) series reminded us that the Lord wants to  RESTORE our OBEDIENCE to the Holy Scriptures and that we will find JOY in obeying the laws of God.

In the midst of trouble or sin, what do believers need to focus on to restore their JOY?Our joy comes from a source which cannot be touched by the world. It is NOT a shallow brief emotion. It comes from a deep down confidence that our life is in God, knowing that He lays up the treasure of joy in heaven through the sacrifice of Christ!

As we embark into our journey as Christians, we must learn to leave the shallow waters of our past, and be willing to launch out into the deep waters of our future—fully surrendered to the directions of our Captain, JESUS! — Have you been living in shallow waters? Well, the Lord is calling you right now to launch out into the deep! 🌊

Today's preaching by Ptr. JP was a great reminder to be the kind of people who wants God more than anything else! — How much do you long to encounter Him, to be with Him, and to be filled with His Spirit? Church, rekindle the fire in your soul and awaken your appetite for God, for it is only Him who can satisfy us! 🔥

The word brought by Ptr. JP places emphasis on giving attention to what our “ONE THING” is. It can become so easy for us to get wrapped up in all the things we need to do that we lose sight of what the MOST important thing is—sitting at the feet of Jesus. — Ask yourself, “Am I a Mary or a Martha when it comes to my relationship with God?”

Fast to Feast - Ptr. JP Betansos

Today’s message reminded us that as we welcome this new year, we must also have a new heart. A kind of heart that loves and forgives unconditionally regardless of committed offense. This isn’t easy but by God’s grace, we can do it!

This year might come to an end but it is never too late for you to give thanks to our God! So, fill your rooms with songs of praise and shouts of joy! The outpouring of His Great Abundance in our lives will never stop! 

Christmas is almost here! And we can't help but praise God for His Son Jesus! It's indeed a time of excitement and anticipation as we prepare to celebrate the hope that is found in the birth of Jesus!

Do not let your hearts be troubled. Do not be afraid. God’s peace is available right now. All you have to do is receive His peace!

Did you know that God's attention is being caught whenever there is unity? Truly, no man can live alone cause we are designed to be part of a community! So what are you waiting for? Let’s gather up and celebrate togetherness with the living God!

God deserves nothing but the BEST from us! It’s time to give our ALL for the one who is indeed great in our lives!

Maybe your battles seem to be overwhelming right now but you didn’t come this far just to give up! Be still—for the Lord will fight for you! Remember, this battle isn’t yours! It’s God’s!

It’s time to revive our passion back for the things of God! Anticipate for God’s powerful word.

With all that is happening today, it is true that our lives must have a strong foundation! The question is, where does your life built on? Is it on the Solid Rock or on a sinking sand?

Nothing can stand in God’s way! Not even the power of death can stop the Church of God from ultimately triumphing over the powers of wickedness! Get ready to hear another eye opening word!

This is the day that we've been waiting for! THE NEW THING HAS COME! Church, get ready for a great shift that the Lord will do in our midst!
