God, in His infinite wisdom and divine providence, has appointed spiritual leaders to guide His church and serve as channels for His divine influence and help. These anointed leaders function as conduits through which the Lord's power and spiritual virtues flow to benefit His people (the church). But how do spiritual leaders function as points of contact for believers to receive these spiritual virtues from God? And how can believers fully benefit from this divine provision?

In this October 2024 Special Programme, Pastor Jeffrey Walter sheds light on the underlying principles governing spiritual leadership, as established in heaven, and how leadership in the church (on the earth) must be patterned after this. He illustrates how to honour spiritual leadership, explains the essence of point of contact, uncovers pride as the stumbling block to receiving from spiritual leadership, and establishes the link between leadership and purpose.

In this episode, “Point of Contact”, Pastor Jeffrey Walter details how spiritual leaders serve as points of contact for the release of God’s power and divine provision to believers. He continues to elaborate on how believers must perceive and connect with the spirit-filled utterances and actions of spiritual leaders in order to benefit wholly.

This message will help you know how to receive and take full advantage of the benefits embedded in the spiritual influences that proceed from spiritual leadership.

Leadership in the kingdom of God, unlike earthly leadership, places the interest (i.e, common good as determined by the Lord) of the people being served first. In the heavenly kingdom, the leaders are the servants, yet they are clothed with greater glory and honour. Why are spiritual leaders vested with so much honour? What does it mean to honour a spiritual leader, and what are the ways to genuinely honour and properly relate with them, in order to fully benefit from the grace that the Lord has bestowed upon them for our sake?

In this October 2024 Special Programme, Pastor Jeffrey Walter sheds light on the underlying principles governing spiritual leadership, as established in heaven, and how leadership in the church (on the earth) must be patterned after this. He illustrates how to honour spiritual leadership, explains the essence of point of contact, uncovers pride as the stumbling block to receiving from spiritual leadership, and establishes the link between leadership and purpose.

In this episode, “The Nature of Spiritual Leadership” Pastor Jeffrey Walter teaches on the dynamics involved in Spiritual Leadership, emphasising how it differs from earthly leadership. He explains the concept of honour in relation to spiritual leadership, highlighting the necessity of it. He teaches that, for one to benefit from spiritual leadership, there must be a strong recognition that the leader is the chosen and ordained vessel, through whom God's blessing can reach them.

This message will help you to maximise all the benefits made available to you through spiritual leadership. Pay heed and be blessed.

To love the Lord is to intend to do good, and to love the neighbour is to actually accomplish that intended good. Oftentimes, we find that we focus on accomplishing the external good, regardless of our selfish intentions. This is not what God desires because by doing that, we are unchanged within, and our actions are only temporal. What then does God desire of us in this respect? How can we love the neighbour according to God's will, so that we can contribute to the role of the church on this earth?

In this continuing message, “Love Thy Neighbour, Part 3”, Pastor Jeffrey Walter teaches that no man loves God without rightly loving the neighbour. He admonishes us to examine our intentions in our daily dealings with others, and emphasises that God seeks our salvation from sin above all else, and so we must also make this goodness our priority when dealing with others.

This message will turn your attention from the temporal acts of goodness, which only bring external satisfactions, to the more internal dealings of the heart, which result in true eternal transformation. It will also open your eyes to the essence of the church in God's plan, and the need to partake in it.

The Word of God is everything. By it, we are able to transcend the most difficult of life's situations. A deep personal recognition and experience of this truth, stirs up a desire: a burning desire which triggers us to do all it takes to ensure that others also benefit from the Word, by which we ourselves have been preserved. By taking such steps, we prove our love for the (principle of) neighbour.

In this continuing message, “Love Thy Neighbour, Part 2”, Pastor Jeffrey Walter teaches on the importance of the Word of God and why it must go forth. Using the parable of the Good Samaritan, he explains who the neighbour is, what it means to love the neighbour, and how love for the neighbour (in its highest order) is demonstrated. Additionally, he highlights the irreplaceable and critical role of the local church (the inn). He further explains why we must desire and prioritise its establishment (thriving), and how we must contribute to its advancement.

This message presents a call of duty to all who are being transformed and blessed by the Word of God. Go forth and be a neighbour to the wounded. Grace abounds for this cause.

Difficulties are an inevitable part of growing up. As we grow, our appreciation and awareness of life's difficulties also increases. This awareness makes us susceptible to the attacks of the enemy. However, if we learn to deal with the troubles of this life properly, we will transcend them and by that, gain great spiritual growth (mileage).

In this message, “Love Thy Neighbour Part 1”, Pastor Jeffrey Walter teaches what our focus must be in dealing with life’s difficulties. He emphasises the need to transcend them, rather than seek their immediate removal. He shares critical insights that must characterise our Christianity (spirituality). Finally, he explains why we must strive to transcend our challenges and how critical that is to being useful to others.

Scripture: Matthew 7: 24-25 KJV

24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

Our regeneration is facilitated by an incorruptible seed (sperm)—the Word of God. This Word is totally committed to guiding us through every step of this journey, and undeniably, its efficacy is eternally viable. Thus, instead of doubting the Word when we encounter difficult circumstances and moments that seem to refute its efficacy, we should rather examine ourselves. The variable is never the Word, but how we apply ourselves to it.

In this Holy Communion Service message, "The Journey of Transformation", Pastor Jeffrey Walter describes the potency of the Word of God. He explains how the incorruptible Word of God is able to deliver onto us, the inheritance that is purchased for us in Christ Jesus. He reveals how the Lord alone is in charge of our transformation from evil to good. No man is ever aware of how this happens, let alone the details involved.

Is it up to us to figure out where or how the Word will lead? No, ours is to trust and obey, and leave our progress in the hands of God. “The Word knows the path it taketh”. Trust in it!

1 Peter 1:23 KJV Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever.

“What shall we say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31 KJV). It is in this assurance that we confidently rise up to fight back and speak to the enemy, “This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.” (1 Samuel 17:46 KJV)

In this series, Pastor Jeffrey Walter sheds light on the nature of our inheritance in the Lord, the unfailing Word of God, and what is required of us to take hold of the Lord's promises in our lives through the word of faith.

Pastor Jeffrey Walter exhorts us in this episode, "Boasting in the Lord", to find confidence and comfort in God's promises, no matter how mechanical clinging on to them seems at our lowest. He emphasises on the need to rise in confidence to relentlessly fight the enemy, highlighting why and how we must fight, all the while boasting in the Lord.

This message will uplift your soul and give you a good reason to charge at the enemy in great confidence. Pick up your armor and prepare for war. The Lord your God is on your side!

“For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.” Romans 8:28 KJV

This is the sure inheritance of every Christian and hence should be our primary pursuit, despite all odds. However, slothfulness (spiritual laziness), that is, the failure to first respond to the truth in the senses (external) or the unwillingness to do the most important thing at a given time, militates against this pursuit. How can a man overcome what holds him back, in order to eventually partake in the inheritance the Lord has destined him for?

In this series, Pastor Jeffrey Walter sheds light on the nature of our inheritance in the Lord, the unfailing Word of God, and what is required of us to take hold of the Lord's promises in our lives through the Word of Faith.

In this episode, “Be Not Slothful”, Pastor Jeffrey Walter emphasizes the need to progress from knowing the Lord externally to knowing the Lord internally (spiritual revelation). He explains how God converts a man's heart through obedience, and brings him to a place of glorification.

Furthermore, he demonstrates how to respond to the Word of God and shun spiritual laziness in order to access one's inheritance in the Lord. The importance of giving, as an act of obedience to God, is also highlighted.

Beloved, every promise of God is certain. Hallelujah! It is worth casting sloth away, giving up everything and fighting till you take hold of each promise.
