Unite180 with David Grobler

Authority: Called & Sent

You don’t go because you choose to—you go because you are sent.
 
In the final message of the Authority series, Pastor David Grobler explores the deep responsibilities of God-given authority and the importance of honouring those appointed over us. Through the examples of Moses, David, and New Testament leadership, this sermon highlights why God’s appointed authority matters and how faithful submission brings us into alignment with His plan.
Pastor David emphasises that authority isn't about control but about God’s design for order and protection. This message calls us to honour those in leadership, understand the weight of our words, and live in obedience to God’s delegated authority.

Authority: Thoughts on Authority

The measure of your authority is directly connected to your submission to God.
 
In this message, Pastor David Grobler explores the biblical framework of authority established by God. We look at how authority is designed to protect and guide, covering areas from family to church and government. This message reminds us that, as followers of Christ, we’re called to honour God’s order by respecting those placed over us and leading with wisdom in the areas entrusted to us.
Using scriptures from Romans, Matthew, and Corinthians, Pastor David dives into what it means to live under God’s authority and how submission within our assigned spheres brings true freedom.

Authority: Under Cover

Authority works through submission—there is no exaltation without submission.
In this second part of the Authority series, Pastor David Grobler teaches about the profound connection between authority and submission. Using the centurion's story from Matthew 8, we explore how understanding authority demonstrates faith and how submitting to God's authority opens the door to protection, guidance, and spiritual growth.

Authority: Submission

The enemy is not after sin; he is after the authority structure.
In this powerful introduction to the series on Authority, we delve into the foundational story from Genesis, where the authority of God is first challenged by the serpent in the Garden of Eden. Pastor David Grobler breaks down the significance of God’s spoken Word, the impact of stepping outside of His authority, and how the enemy uses deception to question what God has said.

Test of Faith

Exploring the journey of faith through the story of Abraham, this message reflects on the importance of trusting in God's promises even when reality seems contradictory. Through powerful examples from Genesis, Romans, and Hebrews, Pastor David Grobler emphasises the significance of waiting on God's timing, living in obedience, and bearing fruit through faith.

W a i t

Rushing can lead to scars, but waiting builds faith and strength. Learn to wait in peace, not anxiety, trusting His promises. Are you willing to trust God’s timing?

Fruit

Fruitfulness is more than appearances—it's a reflection of your faith in action. Jesus expects us to bear fruit in every season. Are you displaying the transformation He brings?

Weeds & Wheats

"You will know them by their fruits."
In "Weeds & Wheats," Pastor David Grobler unpacks the parable from Matthew 13, teaching us about the coexistence of good and evil in the world, the danger of premature judgment, and the need for spiritual vigilance as we await God's perfect timing for justice.

The Destination

We must discover the path from where we are to where God intends to lead us.
In "The Destination," Pastor David Grobler preaches about breaking the cycles in our lives—that it is a fight to break away from what we grew up in.

Faith

Life is contrary to your calling.
In "Faith," Pastor David Grobler teaches us that comfort is not a measure of God's call on your life and that we should reflect on what we go through to determine what lies on the other side.
