Thanksgiving, Praise and Prayer
March 24, 2024
This Palm/Praise Sunday message brings understanding to the importance of Praise in Prayer. Psalm 150 says; "Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.' On this day we ceelbrate Jesus joyous arrival into Jerusalem and it is a reminder that every day we should bring praises to the Lord. Praise is the gate by which we enter into the presence of God.
For this Child I Prayed
In this message, Pastor Joe Coudriet looks at the power of Prayers of Petition and Authority and how they are critical to the life of the believer. Jesus said; "If you abide in Me, and My Word abides in you, you shall ASK what you will and it will be done for you." It's time for believer's do ASK God for those things that Jesus' sacrifice purchased for His children.

Prepare the Way of the Lord.
December 17, 2023 • Pastor Joe Coudriet • Isaiah 40:3
As we approach the end of 2023, and as the world celebrates the anniversary of the birth of the King of Kings, we have to ask ourselves the question; Are we prepared to walk in the way of the Lord? Today we'll look at God's Word and leave it to the Holy Spirit and ourselves, together, to determine the answer.
Prophesy
December 3, 2023
In this message Pastor Michael Williams will explain the manifestation gift of prophesy. This powerful gift is something that every believer who has received the baptism in the Holy Spirit can manifest. There are six primary purposes: conviction of sin; call to accountability; disclosure of the secrets of the heart; effect godly sorrow, repentance, and submission to God; effect sincere worship of God; effect a recognition of the power of God and His presence in the midst of that assembly of believers.
Tongues and Interpretation of Tongues
November 26, 2023 • Pastor Joe Coudriet
It makes sense that the one of the most powerful and prolific of manifestation gifts would attract so much attention and concern. In this message, Pastor Coudriet will talk about the four applications of the manifestation gifts of tongues and interpretation of tongues.
The Working of Miracles
November 19, 2023 • Pastor Michael Williams
Welcome to Family Life Church located in Vestal, New York. Of all the manifestation gifts of the Holy Spirit, the working of miracles seems to get the most attention. But just what is a 'miracle?' In this message, Pastor Michael Williams will consider 'miracles, signs and wonders.'
Gifts of Healings
November 12, 2023
While all of the manifestations of the Spirit are profitable for the believer and the life of the church, there is one gift that may be needed more than many of the others; the Gifts of Healings. In this message, Pastor Joe Coudriet will talk about the Gifts of Healings and how it differs from the gifts of special faith or the working of miracles. It's time that the body of Christ walked in the totality of her covenant coverage.
Special Faith
November 5, 2023
Without faith it is impossible to please God. Faith is at the heart of the Christian message. BUT, 'special faith' is a manifestation of an extraordinary measure of faith that brings the power of God from heaven to eartjh. In this message, Pastor Pascale Williams will talk about what is 'special' about special faith.
The discerning of spirits
October 15, 2023 • Pastor Joe Coudriet
When it comes to spiritual gifts the Apostle Paul tells us that he 'does want us to be ignorant.' 1 Cor. 12:1. In this message Pastor Mike Williams will share one of the Gifts of Revelation; the 'discerning of spirits.' In a world where the battles are both natural and spiritual it's important to know what you are really fighting.
Covenant Coverage
October 8, 2023 • p
There are things that God expects of us in life. It centers around glorifying Him in all things. But, He doesn't expect you to do it alone. He has provided everything needed that pertain to life and Godliness. In this first message of the Covenant Coverage series, Pastor Joe Coudriet will talk about the provision of the manifestation gifts of the Holy Spirit and their importance in the life of the believer and the church.
Faith that Remains
October 1, 2023 • Pastor Mike Williams
Abraham stood through the challenge of offering his son, Isaac, as a sacrifice to the Lord. And, as we know, God wasn't wanting to sacrifice Isaac but instead wanted to test Abraham. Abraham passed the test, and as a result, rose higher through the challenges. Pastor Mike Williams uses this story for the basis of his message, Faith that Remains.
Got Leadership?
September 17, 2023 • Pastor Joe Coudriet
It is said that 'he that thinks he is leading and no one is following is simply taking a walk.' But the reality is that many are following what we say and what we do. And to drill down a bit further, most of us find ourselves leading in ministry, leading our families or leading on the job. God's Word says that there is a grace that goes along with that to help. In today's message we'll learn more about 'leading with diligence.'.
Got Mercy?
September 10, 2023 • Pastor Joe Coudriet
God's Word says that 'mercy triumphs over judgement?' (James 2:13) When you see someone that is hurting, is your heart moved or do you 'move over' and get out of the way? Or, do you find yourself judging the person and the circumstances in which they find themselves? For the person who has the gift of mercy, with cheerfulness, the question isn't whether to help but how soon can they help? Join us today to learn more.
Got Giving?
September 3, 2023
The funtional gift of giving compels the one posessing it to look for opportunities to be a blessing in financial and material ways. The Holy Spirit heightens their awareness of needs that are around them in the lives of people and HE supplies the resources to meet the need. The 'giver' need only be sensitive to the Holy Spirit and obedient to HIs leading.
