There’s Something More: it’s time for us to grow up!

The message was clear: there is something more—but it requires maturity. Not just attending church, but becoming the kind of believer who can actually carry what we keep praying for.

Hebrews 5-6 hit heavy: by now we should be teachers, but many are still living on spiritual milk. Growth means leaving the basics and pressing forward into maturity (Hebrews 5:12-14; Hebrews 6:1-2). The goal isn’t to stay in cycles of the same elementary lessons; it’s to become spiritually trained, stable, and discerning.

One thing that stood out was the emphasis on culture.

Culture isn’t just vibes or routines; culture is what you’re building, growing, and reproducing. It’s what your environment produces naturally. And according to Acts, the early church didn’t just have services… they had a culture. A spiritual atmosphere that formed a people. Acts shows us the culture of the church wasn’t emotional moments—it was a supernatural lifestyle:

pray → worship → wait.

Waiting produces purification, and purification produces power (Acts 1–2). The sermon broke down different spiritual cultures:

• Worship Culture

Worship isn’t a style, it’s alignment. It teaches the heart to submit and keeps the flesh from becoming the leader (John 4:23-24).

• Prophetic Culture (Numbers 11:29)

God desires His people to hear Him and speak what He’s saying. Prophetic culture is about sensitivity to the Spirit—not just gifting, but obedience.

• Deliverance Culture

A prophetic culture must also be a deliverance culture because freedom requires discipline. Deliverance isn’t a one-time event, it’s maintained through holiness, accountability, and guarding gates. Even conversations can become portals—what we tolerate spiritually can enter through what we entertain verbally (Proverbs 4:23; Matthew 12:34).

• Supernatural (Acts) Culture

The book of Acts wasn’t built on hype—it was built on power, purity, and unity. Miracles weren’t rare… they were normal (Acts 2:42-47; Acts 5:15).

• Glory Culture

Glory can’t be rushed. The glory of God rests where there is sacrifice and consecration. It’s not about being the main character—it’s about being a clean altar (2 Chronicles 5:13-14; Romans 12:1).

And the reminder that really hit: authority is real, but Jesus said don’t rejoice just because demons submit—rejoice that your name is written in heaven (Luke 10:17-20). Power is never meant to replace intimacy. Honestly today didn’t feel like a “feel good” service.

It felt like heaven saying:

“Move on. Grow up. There’s more.” 🔥
