Prayer & Fasting
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…
Steps To Having Prayers Answered
Based on Mark 11:24, "Whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them", Pastor Mirek Hufton challenges the common religious assumption that God sometimes simply says "no" to prayer, arguing instead that unanswered prayer is a word and faith issue, not a divine decision. Pastor Hufton walks through foundational…
Steps To Having Prayers Answered
Prayer isn't a passive hope, it's an active, faith-driven pursuit that produces real results. In this message, Pastor Mirek Hufton digs deep into the practical steps behind answered prayer, challenging the idea that God sometimes just says "no" and showing from Scripture that the Word of God in your heart is the engine that makes prayer work.
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. In this powerful message, I walk our congregation through the second pillar of effective prayer: knowing the power of God. When your faith is anchored in His limitless ability, nothing can stop your prayers from breaking through.
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.
The Power of Persevering Prayer
Prayer is not passive, it is a spiritual battle that requires fervency, persistence, and faith that refuses to quit. In this powerful message, Pastor Mirek Hufton unpacks the parable of the persistent widow in Luke 18 and reveals why tenacity in prayer is the key to breaking through demonic resistance and seeing God's promises manifest in your life.
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. Drawing from Joel 2:12, Pastor Hufton defines fasting as deliberately abstaining from food for spiritual purposes, a act of humility that weakens the…
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…
Fasting & Prayer Brings Breakthrough Power
In this passionate exhortation, Pastor Mirek Hufton calls the church to rediscover fasting as an essential spiritual discipline, not merely for the 21-day fast, but as a lifelong lifestyle. Drawing from Matthew 17:19-21, Pastor Hufton highlights Jesus' own words: "This kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting." When the disciples couldn't cast out…
Men Always Ought to Pray and Not Lose Heart
Drawing from Luke 18:1 and supported by Romans 12:12, Colossians 4:2, and 2 Timothy 1:6, Pastor Mirek Hufton delivered a passionate call to make prayer the highest priority of the believer's life. His central message: prayer is not a religious formality, it is the most powerful enterprise on earth, and the devil knows it. Pastor Hufton shared how early in…
