Is it possible to pray every day and still miss what God is actually saying?

This week, Pastor Alvin closes out our "Wait on the Lord" series with a message titled "Intimate with God." Drawing from 1 Corinthians 2:14, 1 Corinthians 14:14, and Romans 8:26, he reminds us that Christianity is spiritual by nature, and real intimacy with God requires more than our natural understanding. There has to be a conversion, a shift from praying our will to praying His.

Using Peter's rebuke of Jesus in Matthew 16 as a picture, Pastor Alvin shows how soulish prayers, ones rooted in emotion, understanding, or willpower, can sound faithful and still miss what God is actually doing. This message challenges us to move past praying to God and into praying from Him, trading our need to understand for the deeper intimacy of being led by His Spirit (Romans 8:14-15).

How close are you to God? And how much are you willing to let Him lead?

What does it actually look like to practice sacrificial worship?

This week, Pastor Alvin dives into the heart of biblical worship: sacrifice. Drawing from Romans 12:1 and John 4:23-24, he unpacks why worship was never meant to be convenient, and why God isn't asking for your leftovers. He's asking for everything.

Using the picture of a bank deposit, Pastor Alvin reminds us that God gave us His all, so it's only reasonable that He's asking for ours in return. This message challenges us to move past a Sunday morning routine and into a lifestyle of costly, sacrificial devotion. Because biblical worship was never about convenience. It's about what you're willing to give up.

How costly is your worship? How sacrificial is it? This week's word will make you ask yourself both.

Scripture references:

• Romans 12:1
• John 4:23-24

Is being near God the same as actually knowing Him?

This week, Pastor Alvin closes out our 21 Days of Prayer series with a message titled "God In Us." Drawing from Romans 5:10 and Acts 2:17, he reminds us that God's desire has always been communion with us, not just His presence beside us, but His Spirit inside us.

Using the picture of a server tending to a table, Pastor Alvin shows how waiting on the Lord isn't passive. It's active investment, learning the heart and priorities of Jesus through prayer, prophecy, and healing. This message challenges us to move past a "God with us" faith and into the deeper intimacy of "God in us."

As we invest instead of coast, our desires start to align with His. And that's when day 22 stops looking like a finish line and starts looking like a starting line.

How close are you to God? And how much of Him is actually in you?

Scripture references:

• Romans 5:10
• Acts 2:17
• 1 Corinthians 14:4, 6
• Mark 16:17-18
• 2 Corinthians 5:20
• Isaiah 40:31
