As a new year begins, many people step into it on autopilot — repeating old patterns, routines, and reactions. But in Isaiah 43:19, GOD says, “See, I am doing a new thing… do you not perceive it?” In this New Year sermon, John Giftah challenges listeners to be alert and be present — not rushed, not distracted, and not spiritually numb. GOD may already be speaking, guiding, nudging, and giving fresh ideas, but we can miss it if we’re operating on default mode. This message encourages you to:

• Stay spiritually sensitive in the new year
• Recognize GOD’s new direction instead of clinging to old patterns
• Be present enough to hear and respond to GOD’s voice
• Make intentional decisions instead of reactive ones

This year, don’t just move forward — move attentively.
GOD is doing something new, and it requires a heart that is awake, present, and responsive. 🎧 Start the year anchored, alert, and aligned with GOD’s voice on Fuel for the Soul with John Giftah.

In the middle of lights, gifts, travel plans, and festive chaos, it’s easy to celebrate Christmas… and still forget JESUS. In this special Christmas sermon, John Giftah draws a powerful parallel between Home Alone 2 and the biblical story of Mary and Joseph losing JESUS. Just like Kevin’s parents were busy and distracted, Mary and Joseph were caught up in the journey — and JESUS was left behind. But here’s the hope-filled truth:
Both stories end the same way. Mary and Joseph found JESUS in the place of worship.
Kevin’s mother finds her son in prayer. This message reminds us that when life feels off-track, when faith feels distant, and when we realize we’ve been too busy for what truly matters — the way back is always the same:
return to worship, return to prayer, return to GOD. This Christmas, don’t just celebrate the season — come back to the presence of JESUS. 🎧 Listen to this heartfelt and creative Christmas sermon on Fuel for the Soul with John Giftah.

In this powerful Christmas sermon, John Giftah uses the life of Joseph to challenge believers to live a life completely led by GOD. Every major step Joseph took—whether taking Mary as his wife, fleeing to Egypt, or returning home—was based on divine instruction, not emotion, fear, or human logic. Joseph didn’t move unless GOD spoke.
He didn’t act based on pressure.
He didn’t follow his own understanding.
He lived a life fully guided by Heaven. This sermon invites you to embrace the same posture:
👉 to follow GOD even when it doesn’t make sense,
👉 to trust His voice more than your feelings,
👉 to rely on His leading more than circumstances,
👉 and to walk in complete obedience to the HOLY SPIRIT’s guidance. If Joseph had missed even one instruction, the destiny of JESUS’ earthly journey could have been compromised. In the same way, your destiny often depends on how fully you follow GOD’s direction. This Christmas, make a fresh commitment:
Be led by GOD — completely.

Galatians 4:4 says,
“But when the set time had fully come, GOD sent His Son.” GOD did not send JESUS right after Adam sinned.
He didn’t send Him centuries later.
He waited for the PERFECT time —
The time when the world, culture, travel routes, and communication were aligned for the Gospel to spread globally. If GOD waited for the perfect moment for JESUS,
HE is not being late in your life.
HE is aligning everything for the miracle HE has prepared for you. If you’re tired of waiting…
If you’re frustrated with delays…
This is your reminder:
GOD’s timing is PERFECT. Always. Hold on.
Your “set time” is coming.

Sometimes the cost of saying YES to GOD is not just spiritual attacks…
It is misunderstanding, gossip, false assumptions, and controversy. In this message, John Giftah shares how Mary faced lifelong controversy after saying yes to GOD’s call — many people would have never believed her miraculous story. She lived with whispers, gossip, and judgments that were completely unfair… yet she stayed faithful. Likewise, when GOD calls you, some people:

• will misunderstand you
• will never accept your story
• will judge what they don’t understand
• will not give you the benefit of the doubt

This is the hidden cost of a divine calling. John also encourages believers to show compassion—not gossip—when we see controversies surrounding Christian leaders. Using the recent situation around Benny Hinn as an example (shared respectfully and prayerfully), he reminds us that we often do not know the pain people are carrying. Instead of adding to the gossip, we are called to pray and respond with maturity. This episode will help you:

• Understand why some callings attract controversy
• Deal with being misunderstood for following GOD
• Respond biblically to controversies in the Body of CHRIST
• Walk boldly in your purpose without fear of others’ opinions

🎧 Be encouraged to follow GOD even when it doesn’t make sense to people. HE sees your heart.
