The oasisfamilychurch’s Podcast

The speaker continues the series “God’s life in the church” (part four), urging the church to value
gathering—especially Wednesday services—as a blessing and lifeline. Centering on peace as a
core mark of God’s kingdom (alongside righteousness and joy), the message teaches how the
enemy targets believers’ peace through sudden “squalls” of trouble, and how Christians must
exercise God-given authority, focus on Scripture, and set wise boundaries to guard and sustain
peace.

The speaker exhorts the congregation to pursue prayer with renewed determination—“pray harder
and stronger”—anchored in God’s peace and promises. Themes include declaring a “confession of
peace,” expecting breakthrough after trials, living on purpose in the last days, praying passionately
for the lost, overcoming distractions, exercising spiritual authority (binding and loosing), and
approaching God boldly. Multiple scriptures are read (Isaiah 41:10; 2 Corinthians 4:4; Matthew
11:12; James 5:16 in several translations) to emphasize prayer’s power and results.

Ms. Wanda Phillips delivers a message titled “Be Careful What You Make Your Savior,” exhorting
believers to place ultimate trust in Jesus rather than in political leaders, parties, national identity,
miracles, traditions, or personal opinions. Grounded in Psalms 146:3–5, she highlights biblical
examples, tests for idolatry, the distinction between God’s sovereign use and moral endorsement,
the primacy of God’s kingdom, and the church’s prophetic independence. The call is to repent of
misplaced loyalties, love even enemies, apply consistent biblical standards beyond party lines, and
take civic action without worshiping politics.

A sermon encouraging full commitment (“all in”) to God’s prearranged “good life” on earth,
emphasizing discernment, daily reliance on the Holy Spirit, perseverance through opposition, and
sustaining joy in the Lord. The message weaves Scripture, personal exhortation, and an invitation
to salvation, ending with Psalm 23 and a corporate prayer.

The message centers on “Discipline in Your Walk with God,” emphasizing that biblical discipline
is loving training for sons and daughters, not punishment. Using 1 Corinthians 9:24–27 (The
Passion Translation) and the Isthmian Games’ withering celery wreath as a metaphor, the speaker
urges believers to practice self-control, align actions with convictions, and pursue an imperishable
crown. Practical guidance includes scheduled prayer/Scripture time, private fasting, and
accountable relationships, supported by numerous Scriptures and two real-life illustrations.

A sermon emphasizing God as a good Father who meets every need, calling believers to trust Him,
speak His word over their situations, avoid worry, and live one day at a time. Teachings were
anchored in Philippians 4:19, Psalm 145:16, Psalm 23:1, Jeremiah 1:12, Psalm 37:18–19, and
Matthew 6:25–34, with personal anecdotes and testimonies illustrating divine provision.

Teaching on hearing God's Voice through His Word.

 Emphasis that “everything God has for you today is good.” Central theme: being “full of power” by hearing and acting on God’s Word, not merely with physical ears but with spiritual ears and a hungry heart.

Part three of a teaching series on “God’s plan for the church,” focusing on the Kingdom of God as righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit (Romans 14:17), with today’s emphasis on
righteousness through Christ, believers’ mission (Mark 16:15–20), healing and prosperity
promises, and confidence in God’s plans for both present life and eternity. The session included a personal testimony and an opening prayer of thanksgiving and dependence on God.

A worship service at Oasis Christian Center focused on God’s presence, the good news of salvation through Jesus, and the central message: “You are who God says you are.” Attendees were encouraged to share the message and to live the abundant life Jesus gives.
