    The Breaker Goes Before You | A Word for Your Breakthrough Season

    Are you standing at a gate that won’t open? In this powerful message, Pastor Ray Phillips unpacks Micah 2:13 and reveals what it means that “the Breaker goes before you.” This isn’t just a sermon — it’s a declaration that God is shifting seasons, breaking resistance, and moving His people into breakthrough. If you’ve been battling discouragement, addiction, fear, guilt, shame, or a long-standing spiritual barrier, this message will encourage you to trust the One who bursts through the gate first. The breakthrough doesn’t come from striving harder — it comes from the Breaker Himself. Through Scripture in Micah 2 and Luke 4, Pastor Ray explains how Jesus is the Messiah, the Breaker, who shatters barriers and leads us into a brand new spiritual season. This is a prophetic word about walking through what God has opened and stepping into freedom, favor, and restoration. If you’re ready for a new season, this message is for you.

    Live Now

    What have you allowed into your “house” — your heart — that shouldn’t be there? In this powerful sermon, Pastor Lukebrings a clear, biblical message on overcoming sin, breaking strongholds, and walking in freedom through Jesus Christ. Using James 1 and 1 John, he exposes how temptation grows into bondage, why conviction is a gift, and how secret sin thrives in darkness. This message will challenge you to stop excusing sin, stop downplaying it, and start dealing with it God’s way: confession, repentance, and spiritual warfare through the Holy Spirit. If you’ve been battling lust, pornography, addiction, pride, unforgiveness, gossip, fear, or idolatry, this sermon will help you identify what’s “in your house,” close the entry points, and walk in the victory Jesus already won at the cross. Jesus didn’t only die to forgive sin — He died to break sin’s power. Watch to the end for the gospel invitation and two powerful prayers: one for salvation and one for believers ready to step into freedom.

    Not by Maps, but by His Presence

    "The Lord will guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in drought..." — and calls the church back to a living, personal relationship with God rather than a checklist of instructions. Ray explains what it looks like to be guided by God's presence, to be strengthened and healed, and to become a "watered garden" and a spring whose waters do not fail. He contrasts manufactured, surface-level spirituality with the deep, sustaining work of the Spirit and emphasizes that God wants to be our source through every drought and season. Practically, he invites the congregation into a 21-day fast, scripture reading, and intentional prayer as a way to reposition our appetites for God. The sermon includes personal stories, pastoral encouragement, and a corporate declaration and prayer to carry into 2026: not because our world will be perfect but because God will be present. If you feel dry, tired, or distracted, this is a direct invitation to return to his presence and let God satisfy and strengthen you.

    Emmanuel, God With Us - Even Now

    God with us, even now. Using the prayer Jesus taught his disciples and the story of Bethlehem, he contrasts religion and relationship, showing how Jesus came to live among us, identify with our families, and give us a Father who never abandons. Expect warm stories, honest testimony, and clear encouragement that God meets us in the middle of our hurts and failures. This is a call back to trust and a practical reminder that salvation is personal. Pastor Ray closes with an invitation to respond, a simple prayer of commitment, and next steps for anyone beginning or returning to a walk with Christ. Whether you need encouragement about family, forgiveness, or a fresh start, this message points you to the love and presence of Jesus.

    God Among Us

    Pastor Richard walks through the meaning of Emmanuel, God with us, starting from John 1:14 and Matthew 1:23 and moving to Luke 2 to show how God chose to live among us. He uses familiar Christmas images and movies to remind us that the manger is not just a sweet scene but the start of a personal, sacrificial story: Jesus lived a full human life, felt what we feel, faced temptation yet remained without sin, and overcame the world so we can share in that victory. He gives three clear reasons Jesus came—to overcome this life, to leave us an example to follow, and to enter into our suffering so he could truly be with us. The message closes with a simple invitation to respond to that reality. If this stirred something in you, Pastor Richard offers a short prayer of commitment and encourages you to revisit the series for more.
