PRAYER OVER PANIC - Acts 12:1-5

What do we do when life spins out of control? When evil seems to win and fear threatens to take over? In Acts 12:1–5, we see the early church under intense persecution, James is killed, Peter is imprisoned, and Herod is rising in power. But rather than panic, the church presses in through prayer.In this message, Pastor Roland unpacks how the early believers responded with fervent, Spirit-led prayer, and what that means for us today. God does His most powerful work in unexpected ways and prayer is how we align with Him in the middle of chaos. If you’re walking through difficulty, fear, or uncertainty, this message will challenge and comfort you.SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:Acts 12:1-5----CONNECT WITH US:Online: https://www.reachthegrove.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reachthegrove/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reachthegrove/Give: https://www.reachthegrove.com/give/----#reachthegrove #jesus #onlinechurch #faith #bible #believe #belong #cross #inspiration #christian #churchonline #truth #knowledge #trust #gospel #expository #preach #preaching #holyspirit #worship #praise #discipleship #sermon #bookofacts

In this message from Acts 11:19–26, Pastor Roland walks us through the powerful story of the church in Antioch, where followers of Jesus were first called “Christians.” But that title didn’t come from within.

Their faith wasn’t silent. It was visible, contagious, and rooted in grace.

Passion Week 2025 - Easter Sunday - Matthew 28:2-6

It’s the GREATEST DAY IN HISTORY! The tomb is empty. Death is defeated. Hope is alive.This is the greatest day in history because Jesus didn’t stay buried, and we don’t have to stay broken. He is risen. He is alive. And everything has changed.Come and see. Go and tell. The King has conquered the grave!

Passion Week 2025 - Holy Saturday - Matthew 27:59-60

On this day, everything felt still. The disciples were scattered. Hope felt lost. The body of Jesus laid in a borrowed tomb. Heaven was silent. But make no mistake, silence is not the absence of God.Holy Saturday reminds us that even when we can’t see Him moving, God is still at work. Beneath the surface. Behind the scenes. Preparing resurrection power.Sometimes the silence is just the space before the miracle. So let's wait in hope. Sunday is on the way.
