  • Harassed and Helpless | Matthew 9_35-38
    Sep 28 2025
    Jesus traveled through towns and villages teaching, proclaiming the kingdom, and healing diseases, showing compassion for crowds who were 'harassed and helpless like sheep without a shepherd.' He saw people crushed and exhausted under religious burdens rather than experiencing freedom. Jesus shifted metaphors to describe a plentiful harvest with too few workers, emphasizing that God's kingdom transforms sheep into shepherds. The message challenges believers to stop living as harassed sheep and start laboring as apprenticed harvesters, tending the fields God has entrusted to them—whether family, marriage, or workplace—to help others find freedom in Christ.

  • When Demons Steal Your Testimony | Matthew 9_32-34
    Sep 28 2025
    Demons strategically target our testimonies because they understand the power of our voices in spiritual warfare. As revealed in Matthew 9:32-34, when Jesus cast out a demon from a mute man, his ability to speak was restored, demonstrating that our testimonies are powerful weapons against darkness. Many believers silence themselves through busyness, shame, or compromise. Our words can build kingdoms or destroy them, which is why the enemy works so diligently to silence us. When Jesus confronts demons, they don't negotiate—they flee, and testimonies rise from silence. Our voices are meant to serve God's kingdom by testifying to His goodness and power.
