In this week’s message, Minister Stacey preaches on “The Power to Stand,” reminding believers that God has given us the strength and spiritual authority to stand firm through every storm, trial, and attack of the enemy. Through Ephesians 6, she teaches the importance of putting on the whole armor of God, standing on His Word, and relying on the power of the Holy Spirit rather than our own strength.

Minister Stacey also shares the powerful story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who refused to bow before King Nebuchadnezzar and stood in faith even when facing the fiery furnace. Through their miraculous deliverance, a personal testimony of freedom from smoking, and a tribute to Pastor Donald Gray's years of faithful leadership, she reminds believers that God never abandons His children, that our testimonies can strengthen others, and that even in impossible situations, God gives us the power to stand.

In this week’s message, Pastor Donald Gray teaches on the importance of 40 in the Bible and how God uses wilderness seasons to humble us, test what is in our hearts, teach us His Word, and prepare us for what comes next. From Israel’s 40 years in the wilderness to Jesus’ 40 days of fasting, he reminds us that God is leading us even when the journey is difficult.

Pastor Donald Gray also teaches that after 40 comes 41—a picture of moving out of preparation and into power, purpose, and a new chapter. He challenges believers to surrender fully to God, receive the Holy Spirit, know what God has placed within them, and walk in the power God has given them.

Key Reminders from This Message

• Man lives by every word that proceeds from God
• God uses the wilderness to humble, test, and teach us

• God brings you out of something to bring you into something
• After 40 comes 41

• Moses came down from the mountain carrying God’s glory

• Receive the Holy Spirit and seek to know Him
• Test what God has placed in you by using it
• Do not measure success by numbers; look for the power of God
