    Melvin Hyatt: Taking the Challenge (1984)

    Recorded at the 79th General Assembly of the Church of God of Prophecy in 1984, “Taking the Challenge” is a message by Melvin G. Hyatt calling the Church to rediscover its primary purpose, showing forth the praises of God. Rooted in 1 Peter 2 and Revelation 4, Bishop Hyatt reminds the Assembly that believers have been called out of darkness into God’s marvelous light - not merely to receive from God, but to give Him glory, honor, and power. Drawing imagery from Isaiah and John’s visions of heaven, he invites the Church to join the eternal cry of “Holy, Holy, Holy,” recognizing that God alone is worthy of worship. This sermon challenges common misconceptions about worship, urging us to approach God with holiness, humility, and wholehearted praise. Bishop Hyatt emphasizes that worship is an offering to God expressed through praise, obedience, generosity, and holy living. With clarity and depth, “Taking the Challenge” calls the Church to live daily as a people created for God’s pleasure, reflecting His glory both in worship and in life.

    Felix Garcia: Come Unto Me And Drink (1982)

    Recorded in 1982, “Come Unto Me and Drink” features a rich, teaching-centered message by Felix R. Garcia, calling the Church to recognize and proclaim its God-given role as the bearer of living water to a thirsty world. Based on John 7:37 and the imagery of the Feast of Tabernacles, Garcia traces God’s provision of water throughout biblical history—from the wilderness journey of Israel to Jesus’ public cry, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.” He reminds us that spiritual thirst is not limited to the lost; even God’s people long deeply for renewal, life, and the presence of God. This sermon presents the Church as a divine institution, built by Christ Himself, through which the living water now flows. Drawing from Ezekiel’s vision of the river flowing from the house of God, Garcia declares that the Church, empowered by the Spirit of Christ, is commissioned to cry out, invite, and carry the message of salvation to every nation. With urgency and clarity, “Come Unto Me and Drink” challenges us to boldly proclaim that the Church is alive, Christ is the source, and there is still water for all who thirst.

    Rebecca Spicer: Commissioned to Preach (1984)

    Recorded at the 79th General Assembly of the Church of God of Prophecy in 1984, “Commissioned to Preach” captures a fervent message by Evangelist Rebecca Spicer calling the Church to renewed passion, holiness, and obedience to Christ’s commission. Ranging from Noah and John the Baptist to the early disciples, Spicer emphasizes that God has always entrusted His people with a message of repentance, hope, and salvation. She reminds us that the same gospel that transformed lives in Scripture still carries power today - and that the Church must return to its foundation to see revival in local congregations. Listen and be challenged to pray, fast, live above sin, and boldly proclaim the truth of the Word, even in difficult times. Sistser Spicer warns against spiritual complacency and calls for rekindled zeal, declaring that the world is searching for an “on-fire” Church filled with the Holy Spirit. This message is a stirring reminder that the Church has what the world needs—and must not lose sight of its God-given commission to preach.

    Elwood Matthews: Jesus Prayed for You (1988)

    In this moving and pastoral message, Elwood Matthews opens John 17 and reminds us of a powerful truth thgat "Jesus prayed for you." Not just for His disciples, but for every believer who would ever follow Him. In a world filled with pressure, division, and distraction, Matthews points us back to Christ’s own words and reveals the heart of the Savior for His people. Drawing from Jesus’ prayer, Matthews shows how Christ asked the Father to preserve us in the world without being overtaken by it, to sanctify us by the truth of God’s Word, to unite us as one body through love and shared faith, and to bring us ultimately into His glory. He reminds us that holiness is not just outward behavior but an inward work of the Spirit, and that true unity comes not from forced agreement but from growing closer to Christ together. With warmth, conviction, and clarity, this timeless message calls believers beyond labels, prejudice, and surface religion into a deeper life shaped by the Word, the Spirit, and Christ’s prayer over us.
