At FaithPoint Church Cape Town, Pastor Jay Makopo called the church back to spiritual sensitivity in Catching Feelings: Numb No More. When your heart grows numb, you stop feeling what God feels, and that’s where danger begins. Sin waits for numbness (Genesis 4:7), and when God speaks but nothing stirs you, it’s a sign your spirit needs revival. Pastor Jay highlighted three signs of numbness: becoming unteachable, holding on to “old wine” instead of embracing what God is doing now, and living off past victories while missing the demands of the present season. But numbness is not permanent. God invites you to return with all your heart, to fast faithfully, to pray again, to feel again. He wants to restore the tenderness, conviction, and fire you once had. “Even now,” declares the Lord, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.” - Joel‬ ‭2‬:‭12‬ ‭NIV

At FaithPoint Church Tlhabane Apostle Makopo teaches that life’s battles demand responsibility, a renewed mind, and a warrior mentality. Your greatest enemies are your thoughts and your words, and without change, you’ll stay stuck. God fights for you, but you must also fight, average Christianity won’t carry you through real challenges. You overcome by using your spiritual weapons: the Word, prayer, praise, worship, faith, confession, intercession, and courage. This message calls every believer to rise from victimhood and live as a conqueror in Christ.

Join us at FaithPoint Church Tlhabane as Apostle Makopo unpacks the true meaning of the fear of God. Not terror, but a deep reverence and respect for His majesty, holiness, and authority. Apostle Makopo highlights how this kind of fear shapes obedience, builds humility, and draws us into a closer relationship with God.

At FaithPoint Church Tlhabane, Apostle Makopo teaches why this world demands strength, discipline, and a trained mind. He reminds us that no one will fight our battles for us, we must stand, pray, and take responsibility. Life’s adversities will come, but they must find you strong, not broken. Your words, your faith, and your decisions shape how far you go. This message calls every believer to rise as a warrior, rely on God’s grace, and refuse to live weak.

At FaithPoint Church Cape Town, Pastor Jay Makopo preached on Lost Glory: Ichabod, reminding us that we are called to move from glory to glory (2 Corinthians 3:18). Yet many believers are living in a place where the glory has departed because their pursuit has shifted away from Christ. Glory lifts when our covenant with God becomes one-sided, when we honour the gift more than the Giver, and when we stop responding to God’s voice. Like Eli, we can still function outwardly while neglecting what God is trying to heal inwardly. But Ichabod is not the end. Glory returns when we reciprocate, repent, and recharge our intimacy with God — choosing once again to pursue Jesus above all. “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.” – Isaiah 60:1 (NIV)

At FaithPoint Church Johannesburg, Pastor Jay Makopo shared a sobering message titled “Christ Is Not Convenient.” Anchored in Mark 10:17–31, he reminded us that following Jesus will challenge our comfort. Like the rich young ruler, many want eternal life but resist the surrender that discipleship requires. We cannot customise Christ to suit our preferences. Picking up your cross is hard, because it demands dying to self and choosing conviction over convenience. Yet this is the true call of Jesus. Jesus looked at the man and loved him, yet still called him to sacrifice. The same love calls us higher today. Walking with Christ may not be convenient, but it is the only path that leads to life. “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.” – Mark 10:27 (NIV)

AT FaithPoint Church Tlhabane, Pastor Tsholo teaches what it means to let Jesus truly rule your heart and your life. She challenges believers to open their “house” to Christ, allow cleansing, and cut out anything blocking God’s power. Your faith must show in your actions, because everything you want from God depends on it. This message calls you to let Jesus inspect your heart and shape every pattern of your life.

At FaithPoint Church Cape Town, Pastor Jay Makopo delivers a powerful message titled “Why Did You Doubt?” — a call to rise above fear and anchor your faith in God’s word. From Matthew 14:22–31, we’re reminded that doubt makes us sink, but faith keeps us standing. When Peter took his eyes off Jesus, he began to waver in the very moment designed to reveal God’s power. Peter doubted three things — the situation, the Word, and his ability. Sometimes God places you in a storm to display His glory. When you question His Word, you question His nature. And when you doubt yourself, you forget that He has already equipped you for victory. Return to what God said, believe His Word, and trust the strength He has placed within you. Don’t let doubt drown your destiny. “You of little faith,” He said, “why did you doubt?” – Matthew 14:31 (NIV)

Join us at FaithPoint Church Johannesburg as Pastor Jay Makopo delivers a powerful message titled “Diverted.” If the enemy can’t stop you, he’ll try to divert you. From Nehemiah 6, Pastor Jay reveals how diversions lower your standards, drain your focus, and lead you away from God’s purpose. Not every invitation is divine; some are distractions. Stay alert, stay grounded, and don’t let fear or fatigue steer you off course. Stability matters more than excitement. Routine is better than noise. Keep your eyes on Jesus, the way, the truth, and the life. There’s a great project in front of you—don’t turn aside. “Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways. Do not turn to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil.” - Proverbs‬ ‭4‬:‭26‬-‭27‬ ‭NIV

Join us at FaithPoint Church Cape Town as Pastor Tsholo Makopo shares a powerful message titled “God Is Not Man.” We may have been disappointed by people, but God never fails. He is not man that He should lie or change His mind. When He speaks, He fulfils His word. Don’t measure God by human standards or limit what He can do. Bring His promises before Him and believe again, because with God nothing is impossible. He is the source of your life, the One who gives you dominion and light that cannot be dimmed. Like David before Goliath, trust that God will deliver victory into your hands. His thoughts are higher, His ways are greater, and His word will never fail. “God is not a man, that He should lie… Has He said, and will He not do?” – Numbers 23:19 (NKJV)
