City Harvest Church Weekend Sermons City Harvest Church

Genesis 22 is the most important story about Abraham. It was the climax of Abraham’s life and ministry—when God commanded him to sacrifice his only son Isaac on the altar. What was the real test for Abraham here in Genesis 22? By this time, he was already well-known for his faith. The test was not a test of faith, but of love. Will you still love God even if there is nothing in it for you? Is loving God enough a destiny for you?

In silence and solitude, we intentionally cultivate the fruit of the Spirit, which can never be done when we are always busy and distracted by all the multitasking of life.Pastor Kong shares about two men in the Old Testament, Gideon and Jacob, and through their stories, he encourages us to pursue more than visions and dreams, but an intimate communion with God. In that process, we will be changed into Christlikeness.

Drawing from the story of prophet Elijah (1 Kings 18-19), Pastor Kong Hee shares about how God was training his prophet to wean from the spectacular of the wind, earthquake, and fire, into a loving intimacy that only silence and solitude can bring. Jesus is inviting you to come away with him into that place of “the sound of sheer silence”, and there, he will restore your soul.

Once God starts a work in you and fills you with the Holy Spirit, He takes you on a journey. The baptism in the Holy Spirit will empower you to handle any situation in life. On this Pentecost weekend, the Holy Spirit wants to guide you in His power and the authority of Jesus; to be an influence that will bless those around you.

How we treat our parents matters to God. When we honour our mothers, we honour God. In this Mother's Day sermon, Pastor Kong Hee shares four practical ways we can honour our mothers—going out of the way to make them feel loved and appreciated!

Seeking God requires the believer to draw near to Him by diligently abiding in His Word and in His presence. When we draw near to God with a sincere heart and confident faith, He will draw close to us, strengthen us, provide for us, and anoint us in every area of our lives.
