Breaking Generational Curses March 15th, 2026 | River of God | Pastor Donald GrayIn this week’s message, Pastor Donald Gray brings a prophetic and urgent word to the church: it is time to clean the bloodline. Preaching from Judges 6, he teaches that many of the battles families face are not random, but rooted in patterns, strongholds, and spiritual issues that must be confronted through the power of God.Pastor Donald opens by sharing a dream from the Lord and the phrase that stayed with him: “We cannot miss and we cannot lose.” From there, he begins laying a foundation for understanding how destructive patterns can continue through generations, and how God raises up deliverers within families to tear down what has been established and rebuild on God’s altar.Using the story of Gideon, Pastor Donald explains that before freedom and restoration can come, the evil altars must be torn down. But he also makes clear that under the New Covenant, believers do not fight with natural methods — we overcome through the blood of Jesus, the Word of God, prayer, the Holy Spirit, and spiritual vigilance.This message is both a warning and a call to action: investigate what has been operating in your family line, shut every door the enemy has used, and stand in the authority of Jesus Christ so the next generation does not have to struggle with what previous generations allowed.Key Reminders from This Message• It is time to clean the bloodline and confront what has been operating in the family• God can reveal hidden issues and patterns through His Spirit• There are spiritual roots behind many recurring struggles, losses, and afflictions• Gideon was raised up as a deliverer, and God still raises up deliverers in families today• Before revival and restoration, evil altars must be torn down• It is not enough to tear down darkness — the altar of God must be established in its place• Jesus Christ has already provided victory through the cross and His blood• The blood of Jesus cleanses from sin and breaks the power of what has flowed through the bloodline• Believers must be sober, vigilant, prayerful, and led by the Holy Spirit• What you confront in your generation can stop future generations from carrying the same burden• You have authority in Christ to shut doors the enemy has used• The next generation should not have to struggle with what God has anointed you to break📖 Scripture Covered• Judges 6:1–6• Judges 6:25–26• Hosea 4:6 (referenced)• John 1:5 (referenced)• Psalm 1:3 (referenced)• 1 Peter 5:8 (referenced)• Galatians 3:13–14 (referenced)• John 19:30 (referenced)• Matthew 4:8–10 (referenced)🙌 Like, Share & SubscribeHelp spread this message by liking, sharing, and subscribing.🔔 Stay UpdatedTap the bell icon for new sermons and teachings.📺 YouTube: River of God Channel🌐 Website: https://rogcc.com📍 In Person:River of God Christian Center110 Wolcott St, Brooklyn, NY 11231🎯 Hashtags#TimeToCleanTheBloodline #CleanTheBloodline #PastorDonaldGray #RiverOfGod #Judges6 #Gideon #SpiritualWarfare #BloodlineHealing #BreakTheCycle #GenerationalStrongholds #BloodOfJesus #HolySpirit #Prayer #Deliverance #NextGeneration #ChristianSermon #BrooklynChurch

In this week’s message, Pastor Donald Gray brings a strong and timely warning to the church: sober up, stay alert, and get ready for the return of Jesus Christ. Preaching from 1 Thessalonians 4:13–18, he reminds believers that we are living in the last days and cannot afford to be spiritually distracted by the world, the news, entertainment, fear, or deception.Pastor Donald Gray teaches that being sober means staying in the Word, praying daily, remaining filled with the Holy Spirit, and living ready for Christ’s coming. He also emphasizes the power of the believer’s shout — a shout of faith, authority, and victory that breaks spiritual resistance and pushes back the works of the enemy.This message is both a wake-up call and an encouragement: repent, lay aside every weight, get back on track with God, and live with expectation. Jesus is coming again, and the church must be ready.Key Reminders from This MessageWe are living in the last days, and the church must spiritually sober upBeing sober means staying in the Word, praying daily, and remaining filled with the SpiritBelievers should not become intoxicated by the news, entertainment, politics, or distractions of the worldThe return of Jesus is near, and the church must live readyThe rapture is a comfort for believers, not a fearThe dead in Christ shall rise first, and those who remain in God will be caught up with HimDon’t lose your shout — your shout carries authority, faith, and spiritual powerSome walls only come down when the people of God rise up and speak with boldnessRepentance is not a bad word — it is necessary for believers who want to stay right before GodLay aside every weight, get back on track, and do what God has called you to do📖 Scripture Covered1 Thessalonians 4:13–18Ephesians 5:18Luke 21:36Psalm 119:11Hebrews 12:11 John 1:9Joshua 6 (referenced – Jericho and the shout)John 11:43 (referenced – Lazarus come forth)Jeremiah 49:34–39Psalm 115:16 (referenced)2 Corinthians 10:4 (referenced)2 Corinthians 5:8 (referenced)🙌 Like, Share & SubscribeHelp spread this message by liking, sharing, and subscribing.🔔 Stay UpdatedTap the bell icon for new sermons and teachings.📺 YouTube: River of God Channel🌐 Website: https://rogcc.com📍 In Person:River of God Christian Center110 Wolcott St, Brooklyn, NY 11231🎯 Hashtags#SoberUp #LastDays #RaptureReady #JesusIsComing #BeReady #1Thessalonians4 #EndTimes #SpiritualAwakening #StayInTheWord #HolySpirit #Repentance #WatchAndPray #Faith #Prayer #RiverOfGod #PastorDonaldGray #BrooklynChurch

In this week’s message, Minister Stacey delivers a faith-building charge to the church: God has already given His people authority — and now He’s calling us to walk in it. In a time where society is shifting, pressure is rising, and the enemy is attacking on every side, this teaching reminds believers that we were never meant to live powerless. Through scripture, bold instruction, and practical application, Minister Stacey calls the church to stand up in delegated power and operate as representatives of the Kingdom of God.Minister Stacey opens with a strong reminder that God is good, then takes the church to foundational passages that establish the believer’s authority: Luke 10:19 and Luke 9:1–5. Jesus didn’t just give encouragement — He gave power and authority over the enemy, and He sent His disciples out to preach the Kingdom of God and heal the sick.A key point in the message is the meaning of authority: Minister Stacey explains that the Greek word “exousia” refers to delegated power, and the value of that authority depends on its source — and our source is the Most High God. This authority was restored through Christ, and believers are called to stop seeing the enemy as bigger than what God placed in us.From there, Minister Stacey challenges the church to recognize that what we permit, we allow — and what we bind on earth carries Kingdom backing. She urges believers not to forget their authority during trials, persecution, and opposition, and reminds the church that God is looking for bold people with “crazy faith” — even faith that speaks to storms and refuses fear.She also emphasizes that you don’t need a title to walk in authority — the believer carries the Name of Jesus, and that Name is still powerful enough to shake systems, silence darkness, and produce undeniable fruit. The call is clear: don’t stay quiet. Don’t back down. Cry loud and spare not.Minister Stacey closes with practical direction for daily life: start prophesying over your week, speak against delay, call in what’s been held up, and speak over your children and grandchildren — especially in a time when confusion is targeting identity and faith. This message is both a warning and an activation: God is building a bold, unified church, and He wants His people to be available and ready.Key Reminders from This MessageJesus gave believers power and authority over all the power of the enemyAuthority (exousia) is delegated power — and its value depends on the sourceThe enemy looks for what we permit and tries to gain a foothold in families, finances, and healthGod is calling His church to boldness, not silenceYou don’t need a title — you carry the Name of Jesus, and that Name is still powerfulUse trials as a place to praise, not complain — what you’re facing is temporarySpeak to your week: prophesy, call things in, and resist delaySpeak over your children and family — the church can shift regions through prayer and unity📖 Scripture CoveredLuke 10:19Luke 9:1–5Acts 4:13–21 (boldness of Peter and John)(Referenced) Authority to bind and loose(Referenced) Healing promises / laying hands on the sick🙌 Like, Share & SubscribeHelp spread this message by liking, sharing, and subscribing.🔔 Stay UpdatedTap the bell icon for new sermons and teachings.📺 YouTube: River of God Channel🌐 Website: https://rogcc.com📍 In Person:River of God Christian Center110 Wolcott St, Brooklyn, NY 11231🎯 Hashtags#WalkInYourAuthority #SpiritualAuthority #Luke1019 #Luke9 #Acts4 #BoldFaith #KingdomOfGod #InJesusName #Healing #Deliverance #Prayer #HolySpirit #RiverOfGod #MinisterStacey #BrooklynChurch

Repentance & The Kingdom February 22nd, 2026 | River of God | Pastor Donald Gray

In this week’s message, Pastor Donald Gray delivers a clear, urgent word to the church: repentance is not optional — it’s a kingdom response. With prophetic encouragement, sobering scripture, and practical instruction, this teaching calls believers to let God fix us first, so His blessing and protection can rest on His people in the days ahead.Pastor Donald opens with a personal prophetic moment, speaking renewal over a sister in the house — renewed youth, renewed joy, and restored what was lost — then reminds the church: what God speaks for one of His children can be a word for all who will receive it.From there, the Holy Spirit shifts the service to one central word: repentance. Pastor Donald explains that many have trivialized repentance, but in Acts 2 it was one of the first foundational words preached at the birth of the church. He gives a simple, practical definition to write down:Repentance = “Cease from doing evil, and learn to do good.”Reading from Luke 17:20–27, Pastor Donald teaches on the kingdom of God — that it is in our midst when God’s presence is here — but also warns that there is coming a day when God’s kingdom is revealed in judgment, like the days of Noah. People continued life as usual, ignored the warning, and destruction came suddenly. The message is direct: God’s judgment is real, and it can be sudden — so the church must be ready.Pastor Donald also introduces the idea of God as the One who fixes what is broken, calling the church to stop pointing fingers and begin praying: “Fix me, God.” Repentance isn’t just words — it’s turning away from evil and returning to God.Finally, he closes with a powerful and challenging reminder: complete repentance is not only going to God — it also means making things right with people:repent to those you’ve done wrongrepent to those who have done you wrongThis is the pathway to freedom — and Pastor Donald emphasizes that repentance brings blessing when it’s real.Key Reminders from This MessageRepentance has been minimized — but Heaven still calls it essentialRepentance means: cease from doing evil, and learn to do goodThe kingdom of God is in your midst when God’s presence is presentAs in the days of Noah, many will ignore warnings until it’s too lateGod is a “Fixer” — but it starts with “Fix me, God”Judgment can be sudden — the church must stay readyRepentance brings blessing when it’s sincere and completeComplete repentance includes reconciling with people, not just praying privately📖 Scripture CoveredLuke 17:20–27Acts 2(Referenced) The days of Noah / the flood account🙌 Like, Share & SubscribeHelp spread this message by liking, sharing, and subscribing.🔔 Stay UpdatedTap the bell icon for new sermons and teachings.📺 YouTube: River of God Channel🌐 Website: https://rogcc.com📍 In Person:River of God Christian Center110 Wolcott St, Brooklyn, NY 11231🎯 Hashtags#Repentance #KingdomOfGod #Luke17 #DaysOfNoah #FixMeGod #HolySpirit #RiverOfGod #PastorDonaldGray #ChristianSermon #EndTimes #ReturnToGod #Prayer #BrooklynChurch

In this week’s message, Pastor Donald Gray continues the Holy Spirit series with a bold and practical teaching on living water, spiritual gifts, and love—revealing that whatever is inside you is what will spill out when life bumps you.Pastor Donald opens with a powerful reminder: “You will spill what you carry.” If anger, hatred, or unforgiveness is inside, pressure will expose it. But when believers are filled with the Holy Ghost, what overflows is life, peace, and the nature of Jesus.Using John 7:37–39, Pastor Donald explains that Jesus wasn’t speaking about natural water—He was pointing to the Holy Ghost as living water. The Holy Spirit doesn’t primarily work through emotions or feelings; He works in the heart, producing rivers that move outward to refresh others—not just ourselves.A major theme of the message is spiritual advantage. Jesus said it is to our advantage that He goes away, because He would send the Helper. Pastor Donald teaches that the Holy Ghost brings:Help for daily livingPower and gifts from GodVictory in spiritual warfarePreparation and assurance for what’s aheadThen the message moves into a key foundation many believers miss: love is the requirement for effective spiritual gifts. From 1 Corinthians 14, Pastor Donald teaches that prophecy is meant to edify the church—but the gifts cannot operate rightly without love. Tongues build you up, strengthen you, and lead to maturity—but love is what makes the gifts safe, fruitful, and effective.Pastor Donald also teaches that praying in the Holy Ghost produces mortification—putting to death the deeds of the flesh (Romans 8:13). Without this inner work, believers may try to move in spiritual things while still spilling carnality under pressure.The message closes with a vivid picture from Ezekiel 47—the river flowing from the temple, increasing from ankle-deep to waters to swim in. God is calling the church deeper: not stagnant water that stays private, but rivers that move outward to reach the community.As Pastor Donald warns, this Word will be tested: when you leave, something will challenge your love—and your response will reveal what you’re carrying.Closing Prayer Focus:“Lord, baptize me in love. Send the fire of God to burn out everything in me that isn’t like You—so only Jesus is seen.”Key Reminders from This MessageYou will spill what you carry when pressure hitsThe Holy Ghost is living water—meant to overflow, not stagnateThe Holy Spirit works in the heart, not just feelingsJesus gave believers an advantage by sending the HelperTongues edify you and build you up for maturityLove is required to operate effectively in spiritual giftsPraying in the Spirit produces mortification (killing the flesh)God calls the church deeper—until the river becomes waters to swim inThis word will be tested after service: your love will be tried📖 Scripture CoveredJohn 7:37–39John 14:17John 16:71 Corinthians 121 Corinthians 131 Corinthians 14:1–5Jude 1:20Romans 8:13–14Ezekiel 47Acts 2🙌 Like, Share & SubscribeHelp spread this message by liking, sharing, and subscribing.🔔 Stay UpdatedTap the bell icon for new sermons and teachings.📺 YouTube: River of God Channel🌐 Website: https://rogcc.com📍 In Person:River of God Christian Center110 Wolcott St, Brooklyn, NY 11231🎯 Hashtags#HolyGhost #HolySpirit #LivingWater #SpiritualGifts #Love #Tongues #Prophecy #John7 #Ezekiel47 #Romans8 #RiverOfGod #PastorDonaldGray #ChristianSermon #SpiritFilled

In this week’s message, Pastor Donald Gray continues the Holy Spirit series with a powerful, Scripture-centered teaching on dominion, the cross, and the Holy Ghost as living water. This sermon challenges believers to examine whether they are spiritually refreshed—or spiritually dehydrated.Pastor Donald opens by reminding the church that God gave mankind dominion in Genesis—not over one another, but over creation. We are not called to control people, but to walk in love under the lordship of Jesus Christ.Returning to the foundation of our faith, Pastor Donald emphasizes Paul’s declaration to know nothing except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. The cross is not complicated—it is central. Even the thief on the cross entered paradise by faith in the Word spoken by Jesus.The message then moves into John 14, where Jesus promises the Holy Spirit as the Helper and the Spirit of truth. Pastor Donald explains the Spirit’s relationship to the believer:With youIn youUpon youThe Holy Ghost is not merely a feeling or emotional moment—He is God’s presence bringing conviction, guidance, and life.Drawing from John 4 and John 7, Pastor Donald teaches that Jesus’ invitation to “drink” refers to the Holy Spirit. Out of the believer’s innermost being should flow rivers of living water. This water represents spiritual life, daily refreshing, and transformation.A major theme of the message is spiritual dehydration. When believers stop drinking from the Word and relying on the Spirit, dryness shows up in their character—anger, irritability, unforgiveness, harsh speech, and emotional instability. But God’s solution is simple: drink daily from the Word, because the Word is water, and the Spirit makes it living.The letter alone cannot give life—but the Spirit gives life to the Word within us.As the message closes, Pastor Donald asks a powerful question:If someone comes to you thirsty, do you have living water to give?God desires believers who walk refreshed, calm, compassionate, and filled—overflowing with His life to others.Key Reminders from This MessageGod gave dominion—but not over peopleThe cross is the foundation of our faithThe Holy Spirit is the Helper and Spirit of truthThe Holy Ghost is with you, in you, and upon youLiving water represents daily spiritual refreshingSpiritual dehydration produces fleshly reactionsThe Spirit makes the Word living and powerful📖 Scripture CoveredGenesis 11 Corinthians 2John 14:15–18John 4:13–14John 7:37–39Acts 2Leviticus 23Romans 122 Corinthians 3:6🙌 Like, Share & SubscribeHelp spread this message by liking, sharing, and subscribing.🔔 Stay UpdatedTap the bell icon for new sermons and teachings.📺 YouTube: River of God Channel🌐 Website: https://rogcc.com📍 In Person:River of God Christian Center110 Wolcott St, Brooklyn, NY 11231🎯 Hashtags#HolyGhost #HolySpirit #LivingWater #Dominion #John7 #John14 #Acts2 #WordOfGod #SpiritFilled #RiverOfGod #PastorDonaldGray #ChristianSermon #AbundantLife

New Wine, New JoyFebruary 1st, 2026 | River of God | Pastor Donald GrayIn this week’s message, Pastor Donald Gray delivers a joy-filled, Spirit-led teaching on the new wine of the Holy Ghost and what it means to live a life overflowing with spiritual joy, maturity, and power. This sermon challenges the church to move beyond dry routine and step fully into a Spirit-filled walk that produces visible fruit.Pastor Donald opens by declaring a foundational truth: if you have the Holy Ghost, joy should be evident. The “new wine” is not emotional excitement or outward performance—it is the life of God flowing through a believer. Where the Spirit dwells, joy, praise, and freedom follow.Drawing from Genesis 3, Pastor Donald explains how Adam and Eve’s eyes were opened to fleshly knowledge, leading to shame and self-covering. Humanity lost the ability to see as God sees. But Jesus—the Word made flesh—came to restore what was broken, not through human effort, but through divine life.The message then centers on John 2, Jesus’ first miracle at the wedding in Cana. Pastor Donald reveals that turning water into wine was not random—it was prophetic. Jesus was announcing a new order: new wine, new life, and a better covenant. When the world’s supply ran out, Jesus provided abundance—and the testimony was clear: the best wine was saved for last.Pastor Donald traces the symbolism of wine throughout Scripture, from Noah’s vineyard to the feasts of Israel, showing that wine represents joy, life, blessing, and the work of the Spirit. Human attempts to bring change always fall short, but when God pours His wine, transformation follows.Turning to Ephesians 5:18–20, Pastor Donald explains that Scripture directly connects being “filled with the Spirit” to the imagery of wine. A Spirit-filled life produces worship, praise, spiritual songs, and a heart that overflows with thanksgiving. True joy matures believers—it strengthens them, disciplines them, and empowers them to live boldly for God.This message also calls believers to maturity. Just as aged wine becomes richer over time, the Word of God—when consistently consumed—produces growth, wisdom, and stability. The joy of the Lord is not shallow; it deepens as believers remain in Scripture, prayer, and worship.As the message closes, Pastor Donald challenges the church to drink daily from the Word, begin with the Psalms, and allow the Spirit to awaken songs, praise, and revelation within. This “new wine” is not meant to be stored—it is meant to be shared, bringing life, hope, and salvation to others.Key Reminders from This MessageThe Holy Ghost produces joy, not dryness or routineJesus transforms what is ordinary into something gloriousThe new wine represents Spirit-filled life and powerGod’s Word matures believers when consistently consumedWorship begins in the heart, not performanceGod gives you revelation to share, not to hoard📖 Scripture CoveredGenesis 3:6–7John 1:1–5John 2:1–11Ephesians 5:18–20Psalm 1John 10:10Acts 2🙌 Like, Share & SubscribeHelp spread this message by liking, sharing, and subscribing.🔔 Stay UpdatedTap the bell icon for new sermons and teachings.📺 YouTube: River of God Channel🌐 Website: https://rogcc.com📍 In Person:River of God Christian Center110 Wolcott St, Brooklyn, NY 11231🎯 Hashtags#NewWine #JoyOfTheLord #HolyGhost #HolySpirit #WaterIntoWine #John2 #Ephesians5 #Acts2 #Psalm1 #RiverOfGod #PastorDonaldGray #SpiritFilled #PraiseAndWorship #AbundantLife

Sound the Alarm: Repentance, Prayer, and the Coming Move of GodJanuary 25th, 2026 | River of God | Pastor Donald GrayIn this week’s message, Pastor Donald Gray delivers a sobering and urgent call to the church: the move of God is preceded by repentance, prayer, and unity. Rooted in Acts 2 and Joel 2, this teaching reveals that the outpouring of the Holy Spirit does not happen in spiritual complacency—but in consecration.Peter’s bold voice in Acts 2 did not emerge in isolation. It followed obedience, waiting, prayer, and unity. The disciples gathered in Jerusalem for ten days, contending together until they became one accord. Only then did the Holy Spirit descend. The Spirit waited for unity.Pastor Donald connects this moment to Joel’s prophecy, showing that before the outpouring comes a clear order from God:Gather the peopleCall a solemn assemblyRepent—not outwardly, but from the heartFast, pray, and cry out to GodRepentance is not about shame—it is about alignment. It clears the path for prayer, and prayer releases revelation. Without repentance, prayer is powerless. Without prayer, revival is impossible.This message highlights a sobering truth: America, our cities, and even the church are asking, “Where is your God?” God’s response is not performance or noise—but a praying, humble, repentant people.Pastor Donald outlines a spiritual progression revealed in Scripture:Repentance → clears the wayPrayer → invites God’s presenceRevelation → brings understandingRestoration → refreshes the landWhen God’s people return to Him fully, He promises to respond—with grain (provision), new wine (the Holy Spirit), and oil (the anointing). The anointing breaks yokes, restores families, awakens children, and empowers the church to stand boldly in the last days.This sermon is not a message of comfort—it is a call to action. Revival will not come casually. It will come when God’s people decide they want Him more than convenience, routine, or distraction.Key Reminders from This Message:Revival always begins with repentancePrayer must precede every genuine move of GodUnity invites the Holy Spirit’s powerGod still answers when His people cry outThe church must sound the alarm in urgent timesIf you desire change—in your home, your church, your city, or your nation—this message is a call to get on your knees and contend for God’s presence. The promise still stands: If My people humble themselves, pray, and turn from their ways—God will hear, forgive, and heal the land.📖 Scripture Covered:Acts 2:14–21Joel 22 Chronicles 7:14🙌 Like, Share & SubscribeHelp spread this message by liking, sharing, and subscribing.🔔 Stay UpdatedTap the bell icon for new sermons and teachings.📺 YouTube: River of God Channel🌐 Website: https://rogcc.com📍 In Person:River of God Christian Center110 Wolcott St, Brooklyn, NY 11231🎯 Hashtags:#SoundTheAlarm #RepentanceAndPrayer #HolySpirit #Joel2 #Acts2 #Revival #LastDays #RiverOfGod #PastorDonaldGray #SpiritFilled #CallToPrayer
