Drawing from 1 Corinthians 14, he identifies five key benefits of the private devotional use of spiritual language, focusing in this first part on the primary benefit: direct communication with God. He explains that praying in tongues allows believers to pray effectively even when they don't understand what to pray, helping them stay "in business" with God in every season of life.

Prophesying Your Own Future Pt. 2

by | Jun 17, 2026

Pastor Jack explores the profound ways we unknowingly block God's blessings through unperceived attitudes and unforgiveness. Drawing from the parable of the unforgiving servant in Matthew 18, he reveals how the law of reciprocal return operates in our lives—what we bind or loose on earth shapes our future. Through two personal stories, including a twenty-year struggle with his brother-in-law Leo, Pastor Jack illustrates how small accumulations of hurt and resentment can hinder God's intended fruitfulness until we allow His forgiveness and grace to flow through us to others.

Pastor Jack teaches on the powerful principle of prophesying your own future through the law of reciprocity. Drawing primarily from Matthew 18, he explores how Jesus' teaching on forgiveness reveals that the measure we use toward others is the measure God applies to us. Through the parable of the unforgiving servant and a humorous personal story about a streak on his pants, Pastor Jack illustrates how our daily choices—especially in forgiveness—prophesy either freedom or torment in our future.

In this Father's Day message, Pastor Jack explores the biblical concept of spiritual fatherhood and the profound impact fathers have on those around them.

Pastor Jack calls the congregation, especially the men, to embrace the spiritual maturity and steadfast influence that comes from knowing "him who is from the beginning."
