In today’s sermon, Apostle Alfred Williams opens the first Sunday of the ministry’s 37th year with a timely call to revision—returning to what the Lord emphasised in the anniversary and convention: our love-life towards God, and the reality of walking in the power Jesus modelled. He revisits Jesus’ deliverance in Luke 4 and the healing at the pool of Bethesda (John 5), stressing that the Church must follow Christ’s pattern—authority by command, not disorder or fear. Central to the message is the ministry blueprint of Jesus: “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power” (Acts 10:38)—and the conviction that this is not a “special grace” for Christ alone, but a Kingdom model for every believer.
Apostle Alfred then draws the parallel plainly: God also anointed us, set His seal of ownership upon us, and placed His Spirit in our hearts as a deposit (2 Corinthians 1:21–22). From that foundation, he builds faith in Jesus’ promise: “Whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing” (John 14:12), urging believers to stop living beneath their identity as sons of God (John 1:12) and to refuse condemnation (Romans 8:1–2). He closes by pointing to 1 Corinthians 2:9–12—that the Holy Spirit reveals what God has freely prepared for those who love Him—calling the church to align mind, sight and hearing with Scripture so we can manifest Christ’s life in the real world. This sermon is both a reset and a rallying cry: know who you are, trust the name of Jesus, and step into the life where heaven’s power is not theory—but your daily testimony.
