Pastor Tolu Ayeni taught on the power of oneness and love in the local church — the key to fulfilling our God-given mission. Jesus commanded us to love one another deeply, and unity is where God’s blessing flows. A healthy church thrives when believers walk in forgiveness, humility, and one accord.
From Acts to Ephesians, we see that when the church moves as one body — speaking, praying, and serving in unity — great grace and power follow. Division weakens, but oneness multiplies grace. In Christ, we are one people, one family, and one purpose: to make Him known.
This message calls every believer to protect unity, walk in love, and serve faithfully in the local church so God’s glory can flow freely among us.
Christ is the true temple of God — the dwelling place of His glory. In Him, the fullness of God lives, and through Him, we too have become God’s temples, carriers of His presence and power. From Genesis (Eden) to Revelation, God’s plan has always been to fill the earth with His glory through His people.
Pastor Tolu Ayeni explained the role of believers and the church. We are called to extend God’s presence — preaching the gospel, filling His house, and bringing souls into His kingdom. The flow of the Holy Ghost in us is for the harvest of souls. Every believer shares this mission: to see the world filled with God’s image - His glory, and His people.
God’s plan is for every local church to be complete — rich in doctrine, power, and the gifts of the Spirit. In this episode, Pastor Tolu Ayeni explained how each gathering of believers should be a place where the Holy Ghost flows freely, meeting every need and building every member.
The church isn’t meant to lack in any gift or truth; it’s designed to be whole and sufficient. Through prayer, teaching, prophecy, and unity, the local church becomes a true expression of God’s fullness on earth.
Every believer has a part to play — to pray, serve, grow, and strengthen the body. When we do our part, God moves.
In continuation of the series titled The Local Church, Pastor Tolu Ayeni explained that church isn’t just a place to receive blessings—it’s where believers are refocused on God’s mission. When we gather, the goal is to be stirred to reach the lost, serve others, and advance Christ’s kingdom.
Romans 12 reminds us that because we are God’s temple, we are called to serve. Worship is more than songs—it’s presenting our lives to God and serving in the local church with the gifts He’s given us. Every believer has a role. No excuses—service is part of our identity as sons of God.
The Holy Spirit empowers us not just to feel good, but to serve, witness, and stay passionate about God’s mission. True fervency leads to action.
Pastor Tolu Ayeni explained that the local church is God’s design for training, growth, and the move of the Holy Spirit. Believers are not meant to grow alone—God places us in a church where we are known, taught, prayed for, and equipped.
A healthy church is full of the Word and the gifts of the Spirit—teaching, prophecy, healing, and more. Church is a training ground, not just a place to receive blessings. It’s where believers learn doctrine, grow in faith, and are prepared for ministry.
God works through pastors to lead and teach the whole counsel of God. The church is our covering, support system, and spiritual family—where prayers are powerful and needs are met.
In this episode of the series titled Brothers & Sisters 3, Pastor Tolu Ayeni taught the importance of reading the Bible as a whole, that true understanding of the Bible comes by the Holy Spirit and the proper study of the Bible. Scripture wasn’t written in chapters and verses—it must be read in full context, not in isolated quotes. Many Bible words are symbolic and rooted in culture, so we must check original meanings and connect the New Testament back to the Old Testament.
Jesus and Paul taught from the Old Testament, showing it is still relevant and essential for understanding the New. The church is meant to function as a Bible school—training believers in doctrine, raising disciples, and teaching others. Even our worship and songs should reinforce scripture and sound teaching.
In this new series, Pastor Tolu Ayeni covered the purpose and structure of the local church — God’s primary way of working on the earth. From the book of Acts, we see that believers were never meant to serve God in isolation; they gathered together under godly leadership to grow, serve, and fulfill the Great Commission.
He also informed us that discipleship happens in community, through teaching, training, and service within the local church. God builds His people through pastors and leaders who are set over each flock, giving instructions, doctrine, and direction by His Spirit.
This teaching emphasizes unity, obedience, and submission to godly order in the local church — reminding us that true growth and spiritual maturity come when we’re planted, taught, and serving together as one body in Christ.
