City Harvest Church Weekend Sermons

In this second message from Mike Connell, we learn the nature of God manifested through Jesus' whole life, as described by Father God to Moses in Exodus 34:6—He is merciful, gracious, longsuffering, abounding in goodness and truth, forgiving iniquity and transgression, but by no means clearing the guilty. He is a loving and just God. Learn how to experience the love of the Father by hungering for His presence, leaning on the Holy Spirit to reveal the Father to us, worshiping the Lord till His presence comes, bringing Him all your pain and disappointment—God welcomes, honors and values the broken.

We live in a world that suffers from fatherlessness. An orphan spirit is one that lacks identity, protection, provision, guidance—all the things a father fulfils. In this powerful sermon, Mike Connell explains three things a true son of the Heavenly Father has: intimate knowledge of and fresh revelation from Him; the ability to represent Him to the world; the ability to fulfil the assignment He has given. Someone with an orphan spirit has none of these, so he turns to passions, possessions, performance, people and positions to gain some semblance of identity and purpose, but to no avail. Let this message encourage you to  abandon those powerless things that you have been holding on to and to receive what God has in store for you.

We are bombarded with negative thoughts daily. If we are not careful, under intense pressure and challenging situations, our faith can waver and fail. What can we do when we are starting to lose confidence in Jesus and the Word of God? When our faith falls apart, it is patience that holds it together. Patience and perseverance are the foundations for our faith to stand on, until God's answer comes. Pastor Kong takes us through the journey of patience and how it gives us the power to overcome tests, trials, temptations and tribulations; until we finally can hold in our hands what we’ve seen in our hearts! 

Following his message on the name "El Shaddai", Bobby Chaw teaches on another name of God in this sermon: "Jehovah". A name created out of the most holy YHWH, Jehovah—"I AM WHO I AM" is the Lord God who sent Moses to set the children of Israel free. This sermon teaches you four things about "Jehovah": He is active in the present, He is with us to the end of the age; He is the God of revelation, He desires to reveal Himself; He is holy and righteous, so believers must be holy; but He is also merciful and gracious. This message will refresh your understanding of the Jehovah God who loves you and wants you to draw near with a true heart.

One of the greatest evangelistic tools we can have is to move in the supernatural gifts of healing, miracles, signs and wonders. But moving in the supernatural power of God comes with knowing who we are and what we are worth in the eyes of the Father. As a child of God, do you know that you have a glorious inheritance in Christ? As you learn how to unlock the supernatural by activating the Word of God and faith, may the power of God that is inside you be released in its fullness, bearing witness the power of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

Do you dare to trust God to do what only He can do? In this sermon, Bobby Chaw explores the meaning of El Shaddai, a name of God. In Genesis 12, Abram received an impossible promise from God that he would be the father of a great nation. That promise was delayed, and Abram took matters into his own hands and caused a disaster. But El Shaddai commanded him not to be afraid-faith and courage come from understanding the nature of God. Be encouraged that El Shaddai has the power to overcome even death, and He has the desire to nurture us.

Without the revelation of God as our Father, our relationships in life will never be complete; and our relationship with Him will never be at it’s fullest intent.In this sermon, Pastor Kong shares insight into David’s life and the remarkable depth in David's relationship with God his Father. Learn how a healthy fatherhood can provide security, identity and self-worth in our lives. As we celebrate Father’s Day, may we discover the immense love that our Father has towards us, and may we become a river of love and encouragement to those around us. 

Jesus often withdrew to a lonely place to pray after he had been healing the sick and performing miracles all day. In this encouraging sermon, Aries Zulkarnain explains why Jesus did this and why every believer should follow His example. Success is often deceptive: one can be lured into attempting to replicate success by doing the same thing. However, God is always doing a new thing. There are two key benefits to withdrawing to pray: one, prayer increases capacity in a person to handle more; and two, praying opens one's heart to hearing what new thing God wants to do in one's life.

Have you ever loved and experienced pain and heartache as a result of that love? When we see the Cross, what comes to mind is the pain that Jesus suffered. However, when Jesus sees the Cross, what He sees is PASSION. Jesus’ passion is about God—who had everything—falling in love with us, even though we have absolutely nothing. Sun Ho shares about God’s unshakable love and passion for us; and how we can let His love bring healing to every ache and wound in our souls. 

In the book of Nehemiah, the walls of Jerusalem lay broken for 93 years. A broken wall is a sign of defeat—when a wall is broken, there is no protection from attacks. In this powerful message, Wu Yuzhuang encourages listeners to pick up the stones that have fallen off the wall of their lives: whether it's your dreams, your self-worth, your Christian disciplines, your studies or your marriage. There are three ways to pick up your stone: see the value in the stone, beat fatigue and overcome failure by not giving up. Nehemiah rebuilt the wall in just 52 days—what has been lying dormant for decades can be rebuilt in days. The key is to remember the victory is already yours through Jesus Christ.
