In this sermon, Pastor Nathan calls the church into a holy reset through fasting and revival, inviting us into a focused season of consecration from January 4–25. Fasting is not about earning God’s favor or manipulating outcomes—it’s about surrender. In a culture of comfort and constant consumption, fasting weakens the flesh and sharpens our spiritual hunger, creating space to hear God clearly and encounter His presence deeply. Whether abstaining from food or laying down another comfort, the heart of fasting is dependence—declaring that God alone sustains us.

The message presses deeper into the connection between surrender and revival, reminding us that fire only falls where there is fuel. Pastor Nathan challenges the church to let go of habits, comforts, and patterns that quench the Spirit and instead embrace prayer, repentance, and corporate hunger. Drawing from Scripture, personal stories, and voices like Leonard Ravenhill, this sermon is a wake-up call: revival does not begin in crowds—it begins in hearts. As the church fasts, prays, and fills the altar again, the Holy Spirit ignites a fire meant not just to transform individuals, but to impact an entire community.

In this sermon from LifePoint Church, the discussion revolves around the importance of understanding and using the spiritual gifts that God has bestowed on individuals. The sermon, based on Ephesians 4:7-13, emphasizes how these gifts are given by grace and are essential for building up the body of Christ.

Pastor Nathan explains the historical context of the ascending and descending king analogy and its relevance to receiving and using spiritual gifts. Additionally, the message encourages believers to practice and walk in their gifts despite fears of failure, stressing that maturity in faith and unity in the church body are achieved through the active use of these gifts. The episode concludes with a call to action for listeners to seek, identify, and utilize their spiritual gifts to contribute to the growth and righteousness of the church community.

This Christmas Eve, Pastor Nathan led LifePoint Church into a powerful and unexpected place—not Luke 2, but Luke 15—revealing the heart of God as an all-consuming fire. Drawing from Hebrews 12:29, “Our God is a consuming fire,”this message reframed Christmas not as a quiet, sentimental moment, but as a divine invitation to transformation. God’s fire is not tame or passive—it purifies, restores, and exposes what cannot remain.

Through the parable of the Prodigal Son, Pastor Nathan showed how the same fire that restores the repentant son also reveals the hardened heart of the older brother. God’s fire never changes—our response does. Whether through repentance, humility, or resistance, every heart encounters the fire of His presence. Christmas reminds us that Jesus did not come simply to inspire us, but to ignite us.
