"This Kind!"

This message challenges believers to move beyond surface-level Christianity into deep spiritual warfare through prayer and fasting. The pastor emphasizes that not all spiritual battles respond to the same level of faith, and some demonic strongholds require a lifestyle of constant communion with God and self-denial. The message confronts the difference between "civilian Christians" who merely attend church and "warrior Christians" who are equipped for intense spiritual battle. The sermon calls believers to recognize that authority from God requires corresponding character development, and that true spiritual power comes from denying ourselves, maintaining constant prayer, and fasting from whatever keeps us from complete dependence on God. The pastor emphasizes that many believers confuse being used by God with being spiritually mature, even though God often uses us despite our issues to reveal areas where we need growth..
