Sergio De La Mora

Join us as we unpack why this moment defines Jesus not just as Savior, but as a true Revolutionary — one who didn't just challenge systems on earth but disrupted spiritual strongholds for good.
Whether you're seeking deeper understanding or fresh fire in your faith, this episode will remind you that restoration often begins in the silence — and the battle is already won.

"Don't Tell Me He Can't Do It". What we believe has the power to open the door to opportunities or shut them off. This episode is based on the story of Job, a very wealthy man who lost everything, but despite all of his losses, he never blamed God for his condition. In fact, Job 42:1-2 says: “I know that you can do anything, and no one can stop you." In this chapter, God restores to Job all he had in the past and more. God restored him double of what the enemy stole from him. I believe God wants to do that for you today. It starts by believing that God can do anything, and no one can stop Him.

A crossroad is a stage in the restoration process of taking an important decision. Like the two men that were hanging on a cross next to Jesus, they had the opportunity to make a decision of either, humble themselves and ask for forgiveness or to justify their actions and settle with their situation. Repentance attracts the heart of God and He can only work with a heart that is honest and ready to take hands off of the steering wheel. Maybe today you are about to take an important decision in your job or in your relationships, just remember that decision can draw us near to God or drift us apart. Give this episode a listen to learn more about repentance. Thank you for listening to The Road To Restoration.

In this episode we have as a very special guest Ruben Cervantes, one of the members who was present at the very first worship service of the Asbury Revival that just happened in February 2023. Ruben has been a faithful servant of God for many years, and his presence at the revival was no coincidence. What's even more remarkable is that Ruben had a vision of what was going to happen at the Asbury Revival eight years ago. In his vision, Ruben saw a sea of people from all walks of life coming together to worship God, with a powerful move of the Holy Spirit transforming lives and healing brokenness. This vision was so vivid that Ruben knew he had to share it with others, and he began to pray for the vision to become a reality. Fast forward eight years, and Ruben was one of the first to experience this incredible move of God at the Asbury Revival. He witnessed firsthand the power of God transforming lives and healing brokenness, just as he had seen in his vision. Ruben's testimony is a powerful reminder that God is faithful and that He can use anyone to bring about His plans and purposes. Welcome to The Road To Restoration.
The restoration of finances is an important theme in the Bible, and we can find a powerful example in the life of Job. Even though Job suffered a great loss in his life, including his family and his wealth, God restored him and gave him much more than what he had lost. "…the Lord restored his fortunes and gave him twice as much as he had before” says in Job 42:10. This story is a powerful demonstration of God's love and generosity. He not only restores us, but also blesses us with more than what we could ever imagine. However, it is important to remember that the restoration of finances is not only a material matter, but also spiritual and emotional. God wants to restore us completely, in all aspects of our lives. If we trust Him and keep our faith in the midst of adversity, we can be sure that He will restore us and bless us abundantly. Thank you for listening to The Road To Restoration.
Restoring lost years is a process that can take time and patience. However, once we decide to start that process, we can experience incredible transformation in our lives. Often this restoration process involves working on areas of our lives that have been hurt or damaged in the past. But with God's help and the support of those around us, we can heal those wounds and recover what was lost. Restoring the lost years is not just about recovering what has been lost, but also about growing and moving towards a better future. With faith and perseverance we can experience a true restoration in our lives. Thank you for listening to The Road To Restoration.
In this episode Pastor Sergio De La Mora talks about a story in the Bible about Jesus and Lazarus. In this record of a great miracle of Jesus, we see that restoration does not simply end in the miracle, there is a process after to be completely restored. When Lazarus comes out of the tomb alive after being dead for days, Jesus gives a command to the people around him, which is “Unwrap him and let him go!”. Restoration for your entire life involves the people you have and those around you. You have the power to restore the life of another person when you see them with eyes of grace and forgiveness, just as Jesus sees them, that is really unwrapping people from their bandages. Thank you once again for listening to The Road To Restoration.
We all have dreams, and perhaps many of them we have already seen fulfilled but there are many dreams that have died or other people have come to destroy them with words, with bad intentions, or even ourselves have turned them off due to our own disbelief in ourselves, but God is a God of more dreams. He wants to restore you completely, including those dreams that died when you made a bad decision. God is ready to give you more, if you decide to believe. In this episode, Pastor Sergio De La Mora talks about the restoration of dreams in The Road To Restoration.

Trust is a very easy word to say, but at the same time difficult to live. When you're not sure of what the future may bring, trust becomes the process of surrender of control to God or to another person. Trust begins by having peace and asking God for the strength to give our entire life to Him. Despite failing and often losing trust, be it from your partner, your team, your church, or your family, God can restore and heal the wounds of any mistake. In this episode, Ps. Sergio De La Mora and special guest, Ps. Tyler Minton, talk about trust at The Road to Restoration.
What is your vision? The power of the vision allows us to focus on the greater image, the future full of dreams and promises God has for us. Is the vision that will allow us to say no to things that are convenient at the moment that will deprive us from enjoying the blessings coming ahead. The next time you are tempted to sin or tempted to get out of the road, ask yourself this question; What is my vision? Is this going to help me build the vision I have or is this for temporal pleasure?
As we travel on the Road, it becomes evident that the key to God's forgiveness & restoration hinges on GENUINE REPENTANCE. In today's podcast Pastor Sergio de la Mora is joined by Pastor Russell Evans from the Planet Shakers Movement in Australia and they further explore the essential struggle a caterpillar must endure in order to blossom into a butterfly. Restoration begins with repentance and in scripture we come across men & women that have sinned, have fallen short, and yet found God's redemption placing them on to a greater position than before.

The test of time means waiting… Waiting for the right time to do what we were called to do. When we act out of time, we step out of authority, and we start to try taking control of our lives, when it only belongs to God.

Loneliness is real and often times is in this moments of loneliness where we are going to take big decisions.

The test of commitment is a vital test that appears along your leadership journey. This test reminds us how we are following Jesus. Are you following Him because of the commitment you have with your friends?

Life presents us many opportunities along the way, some may seem very attractive some may not, but not just because they look or sound good mean they are actually good for us.

Is Jesus necessary? We live in a world that is “self sufficient”, and we try to answer questions by ourselves and fill the voids in our hearts with a career, with a job, or sentimental partners, when the only person who can really fill the void is Jesus. John 3:16 says “ For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” See how Jesus came to save, to love and to forgive, as we continue to learn and grow together on The Road to Restoration.

JESUS IS CRAZY! ...by definition, a crazy person will do the same thing OVER & OVER expecting different results. And Jesus had no problem associating himself with the likes of King David, a sinner, adulterer & murderer. Or even with Moses whom disobeyed God & had a temper. The bible mentions how JOB was righteous & even he was criticized by the people of his time. So you can say JESUS is CRAZY, but crazy for your repentance, your renewal, your restoration,. And he will forgive & pick you up OVER & OVER because Grace is NOT a license to sin, but it is a license to GROW! So Grow with us as Pastor Sergio de la Mora & Pastor Samuel Rodriguez from New Season Church reveal how only GOD can rewind the clock & restore even the time we have lost. Join us on the Road to Restoration.
Not 1, not 2, not even 3, ...it took Job 42 Chapters to be RESTORED by GOD. But why 42, What's so special about that number? The number it self is not special at all, but what GOD does is. Pastor Sergio de la Mora welcomes back Dr. Tim Storey for another amazing revelation of GOD's works THROUGH US & FOR US. In Isaiah 46 we learn GOD knows the END from the Start, & we are reminded that we are Miracles in the Making. You may find yourself hurt, lost or scared, but even when you can't trace GOD's hand, you can TRUST His heart. Our failures don't define us, and our guilt should not stop us, so join us as we travel forth on this uncharted landscape and onto a clear new path set for before us, one of healing, miracles & never ending forgiveness on the Road to Restoration.
JESUS Loved everyone that surrounded him, but He didn't surround himself with Everyone. The key is to Partner with the Right People & not with those that strengthen the very weakness GOD is trying to remove. Pastor Sergio de la Mora & his friend Dr. Tim Storey points out Detours & even some Off-ramps, but more importantly, the Rest-Stops as we travel forth. Life's two sided approach is not always easy. Some may need to REST but find themselves DISCOVERING new solutions to the challenges they face. And others may not enjoy the time intended for REST out of fear of what they may DISCOVER, but there is HOPE, PEACE & a Renewing Spirit for all that are weary of being on the Road to Restoration.
What does speaking in Tongues & having Good Credit have in common? Pastor Sergio de la Mora returns with Pastor Josiah Silva from Freedom House Church with a RE-Vitalizing new message for all of us that are down for the count. Our attention is drawn toward what really matters, our VALUES. They are the foundation all aspects of our lives are build upon. What ever we put VALUE on, will become the guide our life will follow. When Nehemiah was RE-BUILDING the walls he knew he was doing good work, & should not stop just because of some critics. He knew it was not just a wall he was building, it was a City, a Calling, a LEGACY. Join us as we learn more about the value of the Practical & the Spiritual parts of our lives. Join us on the Road to Restoration.
Did you know that when a Broken bone is healed it's stronger than before, and so are you! Pastor Sergio de la Mora welcomes his long-time friend Pastor Josiah Silva from Freedom House Church in Irvine California and they clear up the rubble to expose an exciting new perspective on the story of Nehemiah. And whether you are hurt physically, emotionally, or spiritually, you will learn why the CURE to the brokenness is in the confrontation, & how HEALING is found in the "Divine Discomfort". When Nehemiah rebuilt, he did not use NEW rocks, he used what was already there to Re-build, Re-Store & Re-Vive a Temple & a Nation. God too will use what's already in You to Heal & Strengthen You. So invite a friend & join us as we ride forth on the Road to Restoration.
Restoration is the work of the Holy Spirit & does not happen when we want it to, it happens when GOD says it's time. BUT Restoration begins with Surrendering first. Pastor Sergio returns with Pastor Dave Minton from “Capital Christian Center” & together, they shed new light on the story found in 2 Kings 7:3 where we find 4 men with leprosy surrendering.
And to surrender is really something people generally struggle with since it means letting go of what little control they have. Pastor Sergio & Pastor Dave explain the importance of surrounding yourself with the right people to help you surrender to God. It is much more than just a social event, motivation, or support, it’s a meant-to-be council of Godly people that are meant to sustain you in your process.
There is a “Brokenness” that people experience in their lives that only God can bring back together piece by piece. And many go to church broken and in pain hoping their pain is removed. It is only when they surrender to God’s perfect plan for them and embrace the “God Honoring Process” not just to make the pain go away, but to get to the life altering transformation, and only then can someone experience TRUE healing & purpose.
Pastor Sergio de la Mora is joined in this special podcast by lifelong friend Pastor Dave Minton from “Capital Christian Center” in Olympia Washington, who takes us to a higher plain in Psalms 27 when he teaches us that not everything that hurts us is meant to harm us. Let's Heal & Grow together as we continue on the Road to Restoration.
As we travel on the Road, it becomes evident that the key to God's forgiveness & restoration hinges on GENUINE REPENTANCE. In today's podcast Pastor Sergio de la Mora is joined by Pastor Russell Evans from the Planet Shakers Movement in Australia and they further explore the essential struggle a caterpillar must endure in order to blossom into a butterfly.
Restoration begins with repentance and in scripture we come across men & women that have sinned, have fallen short, and yet found God's redemption placing them on to a greater position than before. God does not resist the sinner, He invites the sinner, What God resist is the PROUD.
Buckle up as Pastor Sergio & Pastor Russell take us through this bumpy ride as we navigate through the Road to Restoration.
Humility & Wisdom are not usually associated with Bathsheba. In 2 Samuel we learn about her & David committing adultery, she soon lost her husband & then lost her baby. She was judged by many, and yet she did not let her past punish her future. She became the mother to the wisest man that ever lived, King Solomon. This is a special podcast, dedicated to the ladies out there that have a past they can't seem to get away from, to those that are hurt, & lonely. Pastor Sergio de la Mora is joined by Pastor Carla Hornung from Lima Peru, and together they remind us of God's love for each one of us. And encourage us that no matter what lies behind us, it's not about how you start, it's all about how you FINISH. Keep your Hearts & Ears open as we continue on the Road to Restoration.
As the Prison got colder & darker, the silence began to drain John the Baptist's confidence & trust in Jesus. And even while on the Road to Restoration, many struggle to keep the faith. Believers face disillusions & misplaced hopes of an easy life, but Pastor Sergio de la Mora along with his great life long friends, Pastor Sergio & Carla Hornung from Lima Peru remind us God is close to the broken hearted. It's human nature to doubt, but believers are reminded as Pastor Sergio Hornung said "Never doubt in the Prison, what you saw in the Jordan. Never doubt at night what you saw in the Morning!". Just because we don't hear God at times, does not mean His presence is not there. Join us as we continue to Learn, Heal & Grow together while on the Road to Restoration.
We have taken a sharp turn, and find ourselves entering the WARZONE of RESTORATION In this podcast Pastor Sergio de la Mora is joined by Pastor At Boshoff from Christian Revival Church in South Africa, where the physical & spiritual warfare is all too real.
Pastor At uses great military analogies to steer us clear of dangers lurking in the church. Where some wounded & hurt are not restored equally. A church member's restoration is meant to be fast & private but Pastors or Leaders are left to fight on their own, judged & condemned.GOD always turns peoples mistakes into miracles, with Grace, Forgiveness & LOVE. The very ammunition the church so desperately needs to win this war. GOD LEAVES NO ONE BEHIND & neither will we as we continue on the Road to Restoration.
Pain can stop you or slow you down, but God can use it to speak into your life. CS Lewis said "God whispers in our success, but SHOUTS in our Pain". Join us in this podcast as Pastor Sergio de la Mora returns with Pastor Ben to lead our steps back onto the Road to Restoration.
Pastor Sergio welcomes back Pastor Ben and in this podcast the gloves come off. When there's no spin to the mess, there's nothing else you can do, the pastors remind us GOD can take the catastrophe and still do something GREAT. Join us as we continue on the Road to Restoration.
Jesus said there are two roads, ONE that leads to destruction & ONE that leads to LIFE, but HE never said it would be easy. Pastor Sergio De La Mora leads us on a BitterSweet path. A path many are still on, some by accident, none by choice. Or at least not until now!
Pastor Ben Prescott from Free Chapel Orange County joins Pastor De La Mora as they dismantle Peter's account of walking on water in the midst of the storm. We know Peter had seen Jesus calm a storm before, but this time around he didn't ask for the storm to be settled down. Instead he asked to be called out to Jesus. Some blame the storm, and label it as the problem and Jesus the solution. Yet, Pastor Ben reveals we may sometimes fear the SOLUTION more than the problem. Like Peter, believers know the storm cannot harm them with Jesus around, but what happens when you don't like the solution God has? Or should we just have Faith, be Brave, be Bold!
The Pastors reveal God's Greatest Testament is not in the storms he settles, but on the storms HE stands next to us in. And like Daniel and his friends, when they were thrown into the furnace. God didn't put out the fire, HE showed up in the midst of it. Peter heard the sound of the scary wind, the splash of the unstable waves, and like Peter, we can focus on the scary sounds or Speak LIFE into our lives to rise above the waves and stand in the midst of the storms we face. Buckle up as Pastor Sergio & Pastor Ben set a new course, join us as we travel to-and-thru the storms together on the Road to Restoration.
In the book of Acts, Paul wanted to share God's word & spread the gospel, but twice the Holy Spirit did not permit him to. Many believers tend to struggle with this too because they want to do so many great things for God's Kingdom but what do you do when GOD TELLS YOU NO!
If this has happened to you or someone you know, join us on today's podcast as Pastor Sergio de la Mora & Pastor Benny teach us that NO’s are not dead ends, they are there to set you up for a GREATER YES.
As Pastor Benny says “The test is never in the yes, the test is in the NO”. For a believer to trust that God is in the NO, even when they don't understand is a lesson many have struggled with. That's why we invite you to walk with us on this journey with us as we walk together on the Road to Restoration.
The road to redemption is usually one filled with challenges and growing pains, but in this podcast Pastor Sergio de la Mora & Pastor Benny lead us on a path few dare go. They warn us of the dangers that lie in not having spiritual boundaries as mentioned in Proverbs 25:28. Pastor Sergio illustrates how a time came where his walk was like a lopsided triangle, where each side represented a different aspect of his spiritual life, "Doing", "Knowing" & "Being".
It is when those spiritual boundaries are blurry that many believers struggle. And Pastor Sergio opens his heart and shares his own life experiences where he found himself not listening to the advice of those that God put to guide him out of Love. He describes it as the "Blind spots" in his life, areas he could not see for himself, areas only those that God put around him could warn him about. Join us on this podcast as we learn how our lack of accountability and sometimes our Ego leads us to a lonely and dangerous path. Let's listen & walk together on The Road to Restoration.
On today’s Podcast, Pastor Sergio de la Mora & Pastor Benny Perez dive deep and explore how poor choices, fed by the fear of judgment by others may lead people to isolate themselves and miss out on the healing and redeeming power of God’s Love & Grace. Pastor Sergio teaches us “What you don’t reveal, God can’t heal”, which encourages believers to seek spiritual healing along with the physical and interpersonal healing that takes place when we confess our sin. But to confess means you must put aside your Pride or Shame and expose yourself to others who may or may not be so compassionate.
Many have heard the phrase “The Truth will set you Free” found in John 8:32 but struggle to find the conviction to carry it out. Seeking help from Godly brothers is not always easy but trusting in God is always the best option. Join us as we Heal & Grow alongside Pastor Sergio on the Road to Restoration.
Pastor Sergio de la Mora welcomes you to this very special podcast with longtime friend & board member, Pastor Benny Perez. Join them as they shed new light on what Galatians 6:1 teaches us on how we are to act as believers when our brothers in the faith find themselves in a moral failure. God’s word teaches us to approach them with love to help them heal, and not to pass judgment and condemn them. Let’s listen to Pastor Sergio & Pastor Benny as they unravel the Seeds of Lies and how these lies that people wrap themselves with hold them as a person, their families and even their destiny captive. If you or a loved one feels lost, alone, sinful, broken or even forsaken, we want to invite you to listen and join Pastor Sergio on this Road to Restoration.
