Prayer & Fasting
Established in Truth: Grace for The Journey

God's Grace: There Is Power In Weakness
Pastor Mirek Hufton unpacked one of Scripture's great paradoxes: our weakness is not an obstacle to God's power, it's the very doorway to it. Drawing from Paul's declaration that "when I am weak, then I am strong," Pastor Hufton challenged the congregation to stop striving in their own strength and intentionally tap into God's grace, defined as the…
Established in Grace: The Power You Never Had to Earn
God wants every believer firmly established, unmovable, well-grounded, and unshaken by shifting doctrines. In this message, Pastor Mirek Hufton focuses on one of the most foundational places we can be established: grace. Grace is not merely unmerited favor, it is power. It is God's supernatural ability deposited into ordinary people who humble themselves…

When The Thief be Found

How To Receive Answered Prayer
Prayer is one of the most powerful tools we have as believers, but are we using it correctly?

The answer is closer than you think, and it starts with you.

The Five Pillars of Effective Prayer Pt. 2
Prayer works, but only when it's rooted in knowing who God is and what He's capable of.

When your faith is anchored in His limitless ability, nothing can stop your prayers from breaking through.
The Five Pillars of Effective Prayer Pt. 1
In this opening message of a new series, I dig into the first and most foundational pillar of effective prayer, knowing the person of God. If your prayer life feels weak, inconsistent, or discouraging, it may be because you haven't yet fully encountered who it is you're praying to. When you truly know God's character, prayer stops being a religious duty and…
Importune Intercession
Prayer that refuses to quit is the most powerful force available to every believer, and most of us are barely scratching the surface. In this message, I teach on importune intercession: the kind of persistent, Spirit-fueled prayer that stands in the gap for the lost, the sick, and the broken until the answer breaks through.
Fasting: Getting Serious with God
As Life Church launches its annual 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting, Pastor Mirek Hufton delivers a compelling case for why fasting is one of the most powerful, and most neglected, tools in the Christian life.

I Will Follow Where You Lead
In this message, Pastor Willie Russell challenges believers to examine whether they are truly following Jesus or simply walking alongside Him, or worse, expecting Him to follow them. Drawing from Jesus' wilderness temptation, Pastor Russell shows that even Christ was led by the Holy Spirit, not merely released into the wild. When the devil tried to redirect…

Moving In The Gifts Of The Holy Spirit
With revival on the horizon, Pastor Mirek Hufton delivered a passionate call for the church to move beyond spiritual ignorance and actively pursue the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

How to Receive Guidance from God, Part 3
