Sunday Service - with Evangelist Tshepo
In today’s service, Evangelist Tshepo led the church into a profound moment of spiritual awakening. He drew a clear distinction between the works of God and the presence of God Himself, bringing to light the often overlooked difference between experiencing the works of God and knowing Him. He emphasized that the works of God (blessings) are merely a shadow, not God Himself, further explaining that knowing and witnessing the works of God does not necessarily mean that one knows God personally. One’s knowledge of the works of God does not automatically equate to knowing Him and for one to experience healing for instance, does not mean that they know the Healer. After one gets healed, they must quest to see the main object- being the Healer; Christ himself. The healing one receives acts as a shadow to foretell the presence of the object; Jesus Christ. To bring more clarity, he drew the church to the encounter of the invalid man at the Pool of Bethesda, who was healed by Jesus. We observe that when those around him questioned him about who had healed him, the man did not know who Jesus was, despite having received his healing. Scripture reads: Jesus said to him...
The inaugural Gates of Salvation Living Water Service drew a host of believers who filled every available space within the Courts of Christ. It became a vast sea of worshippers thirsty to encounter God and draw from the well of Living Water. Despite the scorching sun and the absence of shelter in some of the sections, people remained steadfast. They came carrying their jars of faith, ready to draw from a well that never runs dry; they had come seeking an encounter with the One who alone can quench the deepest thirst of the soul; Jesus himself! Worship set the tone for the service. It was a remarkable time of returning all the glory to the One who alone deserves it. Intercession became a defining turning point in the service. In deep humility and surrender, each believer sought the face of God, pouring out their hearts before Him. Prayers rose from the congregation with faith and expectation, creating an atmosphere charged with spiritual intensity. The testimonies were living evidence that Christ is still touching lives, answering prayers, re-arranging destinies, healing broken hearts, restoring hope, and rewriting stories. Each testimony became another reminder that the Living Water is still flowing and that no one encounters Christ and remains the same. At the peak of the gathering, the servant of God...
“The only possibility that can make you to work with God and for God Himself to work through you is your faith in Him because when you possess faith in God, you possess God’s power in you. The Bible in 𝐸𝑝ℎ𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑎𝑛𝑠 3:20-21 𝑠𝑎𝑦𝑠: “𝑁𝑜𝑤 𝑡𝑜 𝐻𝑖𝑚 𝑤ℎ𝑜 𝑖𝑠 𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑑𝑜 𝑒𝑥𝑐𝑒𝑒𝑑𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑙𝑦 𝑎𝑏𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑙𝑦 𝑎𝑏𝑜𝑣𝑒 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑤𝑒 𝑎𝑠𝑘 𝑜𝑟 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑘, 𝑎𝑐𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑑𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑡𝑜 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑟 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑘𝑠 𝑖𝑛 𝑢𝑠, 𝑡𝑜 𝐻𝑖𝑚 𝑏𝑒 𝑔𝑙𝑜𝑟𝑦 𝑖𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑐ℎ𝑢𝑟𝑐ℎ 𝑏𝑦 𝐶ℎ𝑟𝑖𝑠𝑡 𝐽𝑒𝑠𝑢𝑠 𝑡𝑜 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑔𝑒𝑛𝑒𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠, 𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟.

Therefore, a faith man always knows that in any given situation, God is Able! In addition, it is the power of God within you in the form of faith that has the ability to generate the glory (blessing) of God in your life. Henceforth, be encouraged and considerate of the fact that faith is very essential and do everything in your power to maintain your faith in God as you continue keep the very faith Alive,” the man of God emphasized. For better understanding of this revelation, His able servant cited the following scripture: “𝑁𝑜𝑤 𝐴𝑚𝑎𝑙𝑒𝑘 𝑐𝑎𝑚𝑒 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑓𝑜𝑢𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝐼𝑠𝑟𝑎𝑒𝑙 𝑖𝑛 𝑅𝑒𝑝ℎ𝑖𝑑𝑖𝑚, 𝑎𝑛𝑑...
