The Court of First Resort

The Court of First Resort

Pastor Jack draws from the Sermon on the Mount to unpack the deeply practical meaning of seeking first God's kingdom and righteousness. He explains that when God gives revelation through His Word or Spirit, it requires the discipline of putting His order and His power? not human effort or satanic confusion? first in every area of life. Pastor Jack applies this principle to finances, fellowship, health, and prayer, urging the congregation to make God's way their "court of first resort" so that all His promises can be fulfilled in their lives.
Establishing God?  Eternal Councils

Establishing God? Eternal Councils

Pastor Jack explores the power of binding and loosing in prayer, drawing from Matthew 16 and 18. He unpacks the relationship between supplication, the Greek word for "bind," and how believers enforce God's eternal decrees on earth while destroying the works of darkness. Pastor Jack calls the congregation to a new level of prayer ministry, including establishing a 24-hour prayer chain, inhabiting the church prayer room, and boldly speaking the name of Jesus in everyday life.
Obstacles to Confidence in Prayer

Obstacles to Confidence in Prayer

Pastor Jack teaches on the obstacles that hinder effective prayer, drawing from Matthew 18 and James 4. He identifies three major hindrances? struggling, selfishness, and secret sin? contrasting them with three certainties of prayer: authority, agreement, and asking. Pastor Jack emphasizes that God calls believers to move from striving and worry to a posture of meekness and dependence, bringing even their emotional struggles honestly before the Lord.

Expect Your Answer Now

In this message, Pastor Jack explores the true meaning of persistence in prayer by examining two parables Jesus taught in Luke 11 and 18. He demonstrates that the passages commonly used to teach "persistence in prayer" are actually teaching boldness and confidence in asking, not repetitive begging. Pastor Jack draws from the Lord's Prayer and Jesus' parables to show that God answers speedily when we come with faith-filled boldness, trusting that what we bind or loose on earth has already been accomplished in heaven.
Giving Birth to Victory

Giving Birth to Victory

Pastor Jack teaches on the theme of giving birth to victory through prayer, focusing on the biblical concept of travail. He explains how the Holy Spirit helps believers overcome weaknesses in prayer, enabling them to bring forth spiritual life through persistent, bold intercession. Drawing from Romans 8, Isaiah 54, and Luke's parables on prayer, Pastor Jack emphasizes that God desires His people to ask boldly and specifically, trusting Him to answer speedily rather than requiring prolonged begging or arm-twisting.
