In this National Day of Prayer message, Pastor Allen Jackson reminds us that prayer is not just a request list, but a powerful response to God's presence, authority, and faithfulness. Drawing from Scripture and real-world examples, Pastor Allen urges us to become people of prayer—anchored in humility, repentance, and hope. He provides several proclamations and prayers to use on our own and with others on the National Day of Prayer and beyond. When we respond to God, He will begin to shape our lives—and that will impact the future of our families and our nation.   To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world, visit this link: allenjackson.com/podcastdonate

We serve God best when we have more confidence in Him than the things that frighten us. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the despair and hopelessness Jesus’ friends experienced on Easter, how they overcame that discouragement—and how we can, too. Apostles Thomas and Peter both stumbled in their faith after years of walking with Jesus, but He didn’t let them sit in their shame. Pastor Allen shows how Jesus took His friends’ burdens and replaced them with hope and courage, and he invites us to the same relationship with our Savior. The Church in the earth needs to be reawakened to the holiness of God, and that begins with us deciding to honor Him with our lives.    To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world, visit this link: allenjackson.com/podcastdonate

Just like all those involved in the Easter story, we’ve been given the opportunity to participate with Jesus in His Kingdom. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses four characters involved with Jesus’ trial and crucifixion who missed the invitation to a better future: the high priest Caiaphas, Pontius Pilate, Judas Iscariot, and the Roman soldiers. They all believed something else, like money, power, or status, was more important than God’s invitation. We have the same choice to make. Will we be deceived by the world, or will we have the courage to answer Jesus’ call on our lives?   To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world, visit this link: allenjackson.com/podcastdonate

Even though Jesus told his followers exactly what was going to happen, they were still shocked to find His tomb empty on Easter morning. What are we misinterpreting about events in the earth today? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the disciples’ misunderstanding at Jesus’ empty grave, the confusion present in the Church today, and three truths we can rely on when things get disorienting. He shares these foundational ideas: Jesus is unique, the grace and mercy of the gospel lead us to repentance, and we have been forgiven. Our culture is becoming increasingly deceptive, but God is moving like never before—and we can trust in Him!   To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world, visit this link: allenjackson.com/podcastdonate

Jesus came to Jerusalem less than a week before His crucifixion with a purpose: to give His people clarity and prepare them for the season ahead. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses Jesus’ time in Jerusalem before His death and resurrection. He teaches from the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, walking through the opposition Jesus faced from the religious elite and the instructions He left for His followers on awareness and generosity. Pastor Allen also shares Jesus’ teaching on avoiding the strangling love of money that can take root in our hearts. Like Jesus’ disciples in the first century, we are called to stay alert and be prepared for Jesus’ return, working diligently in the assignments He has given us and furthering our Lord’s Kingdom in the earth.    To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world, visit this link: allenjackson.com/podcastdonate
