Stir it Up

"Fan Into Flame What God Has Put In You"
Faith is not passive—it’s something you must keep alive. In 2 Timothy 1, verse 6, Paul tells Timothy to stir up the gift of God within him. Pastor David Grobler reminds us that the Christian life isn’t meant to settle or grow stale. Just like a fire left unattended will die down, your spiritual life requires stirring—rekindling, fanning into flame, keeping it active. The Holy Spirit is not a once-off event. He fills us, empowers us, and calls us to live stirred—ready for action, sensitive to His voice, and useful in God’s hands. Faith that is stirred up leads to boldness, power, and fruit that others can see.

Go: Faith That Keeps Moving

"Go: Faith That Keeps Moving"
Faith isn’t just about the mountaintop moments—it’s about staying the course when life moves on. In 1 Kings 17–19, we read about Elijah, who declared drought, was fed by ravens, saw God provide through a widow, and even called down fire on Mount Carmel. Yet, after the victory, discouragement came. Pastor David Grobler shows us that true faith is not about one dramatic event—it’s about persistently following God in the everyday, even when expectations aren’t met. Faith is not measured by the size of the miracle but by consistent obedience. God reminds Elijah—and us—that His power is not only in the fire, wind, or earthquake, but in the still small voice that calls us to simply go.

Looking forward

"Faith doesn’t stop at what you see today—it looks ahead into what God has promised."
In Hebrews 11, we read about Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph, whose faith wasn’t rooted in comfort or certainty but in God’s unfolding plan. Pastor David Grobler shows us that real faith is forward-looking—it trusts God even when the promises haven’t yet materialized. Faith is not measured by success, wealth, or recognition. It’s seen when you keep believing, keep serving, and keep obeying—even if your own dream feels delayed. True faith steps into God’s bigger story across generations.

Unknowns

"Faith moves you into places you’ve never been—before you even know where they lead."
In Hebrews 11, we read that Abraham obeyed God and “went out, not knowing where he was going.” In this message, Pastor David Grobler challenges us to trust God beyond the safety of what’s familiar. Faith isn’t stationary—it moves you into the unknown, anchored only by the certainty of God’s Word and His power. The unknown is not your enemy; it’s the ground where faith grows. When God calls, you don’t need the full map—you need to know Him.

Tempted

"Everyone has a price—but will yours bring you to the table with the enemy?"
In this message, Pastor David Grobler walks us through the story of Peter’s denial, Jesus’ temptation in the wilderness, and powerful biblical examples of how temptation can reshape destinies. From Peter’s bold claims to his crushing failure, and from Esau’s stew to Judas’ silver, we see that the enemy doesn’t need to destroy us—he just needs to negotiate our non-negotiables. Jesus was tempted too—but He didn’t move. Can the same be said of you?

Image of

"You are made in the image of God—and He wants to restore that image in you."
In this message, Pastor David Grobler dives deep into the biblical truth that we were created in the image of God, yet because of sin, that image has been distorted. Jesus didn’t come merely to forgive sins—He came to restore the image of the Father in us. Through Jesus, the invisible God becomes visible. And now, we are called to reflect that image in the world. The question is not whether we carry an image—the question is: Whose image are we reflecting?

Seen by Jesus

“Jesus sees those who are seeking—even in the crowd.”
In this message, Pastor David Grobler unpacks the story of Zacchaeus, a wealthy man with status and success—yet still searching for something more. Zacchaeus had two problems: he was too short, and the crowd was too thick. Many of us face the same issue—we can’t see Jesus because we haven’t changed our perspective. But when Zacchaeus climbed higher, Jesus saw him. And everything changed.

Don't take the bait

“If the enemy can’t ruin you, he’ll try to bait you."
In this message, Pastor David Grobler reveals how distractions aren’t always obvious—they’re often dressed in offense, delay, and drama. Drawing from the life of Nehemiah, we see how the enemy works subtly to lure us off the wall of purpose. You don’t lose destiny all at once—you give it up little by little when you take the bait.

Words

"Your words aren’t just sounds—they’re seeds."
In this message, Pastor David Grobler teaches us how the words we speak shape our reality, direct our faith, and reveal the posture of our hearts. The tongue carries the power of life and death—and every sentence is building or breaking something. If our words reflect what fills our hearts, then what does our speech say about our faith?

Desire

"Desire reveals direction—and determines pursuit."
In Psalm 37, we are told that God gives us the desires of our hearts—but that doesn’t mean every desire is from Him. In this message, Pastor David Grobler challenges us to examine our longings and align them with God’s will. What you chase after reveals who you trust. True desire isn’t driven by ego, emotion, or need—it’s led by the Spirit. What do you truly want? And who placed that desire there?
