31st May 2026 Sunday 2nd Service_Your Confession, Your Testimony_By PBC Associate Pastor, Rev. Dr. Simon Mwangi

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1791754/fan_mail/new] One sentence can quietly cage a whole future: “I have no one to help me” or “someone else always gets there first”. We go to John 5:1–15 at the pool of Bethesda and listen closely to the wounded logic of a man who has waited 38 years, then watch Jesus cut through the story with three simple commands that still land with force today. We break down the difference between a limiting confession and a liberating confession, and why the language you repeat can either restrict hope or create room for faith and action. Along the way we ground the message in Scripture, confronting man-sized expectations and choosing God-sized trust. The turning point is Jesus’ word: “Get up, pick up your mat and walk”, a practical pattern for coming out of defeat, taking authority over what once carried you, and moving into a God-given future. From there, we lean into life-changing testimony, including a vivid healing story that highlights why we should name what God has done. We also pray Jubilee themes of restoration and release, speaking directly to financial pressure and heavy debt, and we close with a focused Africa Sunday prayer asking God to break crippling conditions and open a new season of unity, resources, and forward motion.

31st May 2026 Sunday 1st Service_Your Confession, Your Testimony_By PBC Associate Pastor, Rev. Dr. Simon Mwangi

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1791754/fan_mail/new] A single sentence can lock you into 38 years of waiting or unlock a new walk into freedom. We take John 5 at the Pool of Bethesda and press into a tough, practical question: when opportunity stands in front of us, do we answer with a limiting confession like “I have no one”, or do we agree with the word of God and move?  We unpack three movements that run through the message: a limiting confession that shrinks destiny, a liberating confession that releases authority, and a life-changing testimony that refuses to stay private. Along the way, we connect the story to everyday pressure points: family patterns that “never change”, anxiety about resources, career and business setbacks, depression that keeps you in a dark room, and the temptation to explain your history instead of obeying heaven’s instruction. With scriptures including Philippians 4:13, Numbers 13, Job 22:28, Isaiah 55:11, and Ephesians 3:20, we explore faith declarations, Christian mindset shifts, and what Jubilee can mean as a season of release, restoration, and renewed purpose.  The finish line is not just personal breakthrough but public witness. We talk about testimony as light in the home, in the city, and in the workplace, and we make room for a clear invitation to receive Jesus and start a new story. If you want a grounded Christian sermon on confession, healing, breakthrough, and revival, press play, share it with a friend who needs a “Get up” word, and then subscribe and leave a review with the confession you are choosing this week.

24th May 2026 Sunday 2nd Service_ - The dynamic force of confession_By PBC Senior Pastor, Rev. Ambrose Nyangao

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1791754/fan_mail/new] One sentence can either lock you into fear or pull you towards freedom, and we put that tension under the spotlight through Mark 5. We start with the woman who has suffered for 12 years and keeps telling herself a simple line of faith until she acts on it. When she touches Jesus’ cloak, healing is immediate and public, and it forces a bigger question for all of us: what are we repeatedly saying about our lives, our bodies, and our future? We then reframe “confession” as agreement with God, not just admission of sin. Drawing on Jesus’ words and the biblical meaning of confess, we talk about why God often waits for a declared response rather than simply changing circumstances without us. Gideon is called a mighty warrior while still anxious and unsure, showing how identity can be spoken into place before it is felt. From there we unpack three outcomes that confession releases: favour, uplifting, and realignment. Daniel’s story shows favour in high places when a God-given word is spoken with courage. Joseph shows uplifting over the long haul, with a steady confession that God can turn harm into good. Finally, we land on praise as confession in dark moments, from Psalm 103 to Jehoshaphat’s strategy of worship before victory. If this encouraged you, subscribe, share it with someone who needs a new confession, and leave us a review. What are you choosing to say this week?

24th May 2026 Sunday 1st Service_ - The dynamic force of confession_By PBC Senior Pastor, Rev. Ambrose Nyangao

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1791754/fan_mail/new] Your circumstances are loud, but your confession can be louder. We start with Mark 5:25–34 and the woman who has suffered for 12 years, spent everything, and only gets worse, until one decision changes the story: she begins to say, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.” That faith confession is not hype or denial, it is agreement with what she believes Jesus can do, and it leads to an immediate shift. From there, we get specific about what “confession” actually means: saying the same thing God says. We challenge the idea that confession is merely feeling bad, and we reframe it as a deliberate practice of aligning our words with Scripture so that, when pressure hits, we don’t default to fear, excuses, or contradiction. Along the way we revisit Gideon’s hesitation and contrast it with the steadiness that comes from speaking God’s truth. We then break the message into three practical forces you can apply this week. The force of favour, shown through Daniel 2, where a clear confession opens doors and brings promotion. The force of uplifting, grounded in Job 22, where your “lift them up” declaration meets you in the valley before life improves. And the force of realignment, where praise and “hallelujah” re-centre the heart, illustrated by Jehoshaphat’s battle strategy in 2 Chronicles 20: singers out front, worship as warfare, and God turning the conflict. If this helped you, subscribe for more, share it with someone who needs a reset, and leave a review with the one confession you’re choosing to hold onto this week.
