This sermon explores how God sometimes leads His people into unexpected setbacks; moments that feel like going backwards, in order to reveal His glory and strengthen their faith. Drawing from Exodus 14, we see Israel trapped at the Red Sea not by accident, but by divine design, as God positions them where only His power can save. In their fear, God moves the pillar of fire behind them, stands between them and destruction, and displays His glory by breaking the wheels of Egypt’s chariots. The same glory that fought for Israel now strengthens believers from within, as Paul prays in Ephesians 3:14–16. Through personal testimony and Scripture, the message calls us to trust God’s hand in our pain, knowing His glory was at work then, is at work now, and will be revealed fully in the days to come.

In this message from our Revelation series, Pastor Matthew Maher exposes the true condition of the Laodicean church — a congregation so self-sufficient, so comfortable, and so spiritually complacent that Jesus says it makes Him sick. This final church in the prophetic panorama reveals a sobering warning to today’s American church: wealth without worship, activity without awe, reputation without regeneration. Laodicea said, “We have need of nothing,” but Jesus said they were “wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked.” In this sermon, we unpack: • Why Jesus calls Himself “the Amen,” the “Faithful and True Witness,” and the “Beginning of creation.” • What lukewarmness really is (and why it’s not laziness, but misplaced treasure). • How cultural comfort produces spiritual blindness. • Why repentance is the only cure for indifference. • How this diagnosis prepares us for next week’s message: “Laodicea: The Cure For A Sick Church.” Before Jesus sets the world in order, He sets His house in order.

The first Tower of Babel was built with bricks—this one is being built with bandwidth. In this prophetic message, Pastor Matthew Maher reveals how modern technology, global connectivity, and artificial intelligence are rebuilding the digital Babel and preparing the world for the Beast System of Revelation 13. Learn how: • Babel provides the blueprint for global control • Technology is reassembling what God once scattered • Digital currency, biometric ID, and surveillance set up Rev. 13:16–17 • AI and global media make an “image that speaks” (Rev. 13:15) possible • Convenience becomes conformity, efficiency becomes enslavement, and security becomes surrender • The Church must stay rooted in Scripture, not the algorithm • In a world driven by AI, believers must be led by eternal intelligence We are the first generation where Revelation doesn’t sound symbolic—it sounds systemized.

Drawing connections to modern culture—including the lure of wealth, the commodification of creativity, and the dangers of pride—the message emphasizes that wisdom protects while foolishness inevitably collapses. By examining themes such as diligence, contentment, counsel, and the law of sowing and reaping, the sermon calls listeners to pursue inner character rather than outward success. Ultimately, it urges us to anchor our lives in godly wisdom, practice daily gratitude, and choose the path that leads to enduring fruitfulness.

In this message from Psalm 33, Pastor Matthew Maher takes us from the Word that creates to the Eye that sees — showing how God’s truth brings order to a world that celebrates confusion. Creation still obeys God’s command. Culture does not. And Psalm 33 draws a bold line between heaven’s counsel and man’s collapse. What happens when nations reject God’s Word? What does God see when He looks at the world — and at us? Why is worship our first response to a world out of order?

In this message, “Philadelphia: The True Evangelical Church,” Pastor Matthew Maher walks through Revelation 3:7–13 — a letter to a church that had little strength, but lasting faith. Where Sardis had reputation without life, Philadelphia held fast to Christ’s Word and did not deny His Name. Jesus sets before this church an open door that no one can shut, reminding us that the advance of the Gospel is not driven by human influence, platform, or power — but by faithfulness, surrender, and obedience. This passage points us to the missionary movement of history, the endurance of the remnant, and the promise Christ gives to those who refuse to compromise.

In this message, “Hiding From God or Hidden In God?” Pastor Matthew Maher walks through Psalm 32 — a psalm of confession, cleansing, and the kind of joy that only forgiveness can bring. From David’s silence and shame to his freedom and song, this psalm reveals the difference between concealing sin and confessing sin — between hiding from God and finding refuge in God. When we stop covering what we’ve done, God starts covering who we are. And the life that was once weighed down with guilt becomes surrounded by mercy and filled with praise. Because blessing doesn’t begin when we behave — blessing begins when we are forgiven.

Sardis was a church that looked alive — but was spiritually dead. Jesus calls them to wake up, strengthen what remains, and return to the life they once had in Him. This message exposes the danger of a Christianity built on memory, motion, and image — and the urgent call to pursue a faith that is alive in the power of the Holy Spirit. In an age where many churches have reputation without regeneration, programs without power, and motion without devotion — this word is timely, necessary, and sobering. Christ is still walking among His churches. And He is still calling His people to awaken. Key Themes: • Reputation vs. Reality • Revival by the Spirit • The Danger of Spiritual Sleep • The Remnant That Remains • Heavenly Recognition Over Earthly Reputation Be sure to subscribe to the Landmark Church YouTube Channel and wherever you access podcasts to stay updated on all upcoming sermons.

What we’re watching in the streets isn’t just protest — it’s prophecy. The chant “No Kings” isn’t a moment in time; it’s a mentality of our times. This isn’t about Trump, politics, or personalities — it’s about lawlessness, the same rebellion that echoed in the days of the Judges: “There was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.” In this powerful installment of Signs of the Times, Pastor Matthew Maher exposes how today’s cries of “No Kings” mirror the moral anarchy of Judges, the defiance of Babel, and the delusion of Romans 1. From protests that parade rebellion to the corruption that calls evil good, we are witnessing a reprobate mind in real time. This message confronts the spiritual war behind the cultural one — reminding us that law and order aren’t political, they’re biblical. Because when man rejects God’s rule, chaos fills the vacuum. And while the world screams “No Kings,” the Church must still proclaim: “Long live the King.” Be sure to subscribe to the Landmark Church YouTube Channel and wherever you access podcasts to stay updated on all upcoming sermons.

In Revelation 2:18–29, Jesus addresses the church in Thyatira—the smallest of the seven cities but the one that receives His longest and most sobering letter. What began as compromise in Pergamos becomes corruption in Thyatira—when tolerance toward sin turns into spiritual treason. Jezebel’s story didn’t end in the Old Testament. Her spirit resurfaces in the New Testament church—replacing divine authority with human control, revelation with religion, and intimacy with influence. Through history, that same spirit has been institutionalized: when the Church married the State, hierarchy replaced headship, and the system replaced the Savior. This message exposes the spirit of Jezebel—past, present, and prophetic—and calls the Church back to faithfulness, purity, and repentance before Christ’s return.

This sermon explores Jesus’ teaching in John 6, tracing the movement from belief to abiding. It shows how many followed Christ for what He provided, but only true disciples remained when His words demanded trust and dependence. Through examples like Richard Jewell’s “trial by media,” it warns against faith built on appearances and calls believers to a faith that endures when perception turns hostile. The message urges listeners to redeem their time by seeking God’s will and feeding daily on the life of Christ. Ultimately, it challenges the church to cultivate abiding faith—steady, tested, and sustained by union with the Bread of Life.

In this message, Pastor Matthew Maher continues the Seven Churches of Revelation with the letter to Pergamos—the Compromised Church (Revelation 2:12–17). Once the capital of Asia Minor and the seat of emperor worship, Pergamos was filled with idols, temples, and the serpent symbol of Asclepius, the so-called “god of healing.” Yet even in the shadow of Satan’s throne, Christ’s light through His people could not be extinguished (John 1:5; Philippians 2:15). Discover what it means when Jesus wields the sharp two-edged sword (Hebrews 4:12; Revelation 19:15), why the Church was called to repent (Revelation 2:16), and how compromise through pleasure and control still corrupts believers today (Romans 12:2; 2 Corinthians 6:14–17). “When Satan can’t crush the Church from the outside, He corrupts it from the inside.” Be sure to subscribe to the Landmark Church YouTube Channel and wherever you access podcasts to stay updated on all upcoming sermons.

In this timely message, we will explore how God sovereignly uses human government to elevate His people into positions of influence and authority. From Joseph in Egypt to Daniel in Babylon, to Mordecai in Persia, Scripture reveals a consistent pattern: those appointed by kings, emperors, and governors often wield greater impact than the rulers themselves. These appointed officials—though humanly selected—carry divine favor, possess direct access to the chief executive, and exercise delegated authority to protect, provide for, and advocate on behalf of God’s people. As New Jersey prepares to elect a new governor this November, we must recognize the spiritual and practical significance of this moment. The winner will appoint dozens of unnamed individuals to govern our families, shape education, and influence religious liberty. Their decisions will either favor or frustrate the people of God. Join us as we examine the biblical record and reflect on the modern implications of executive appointments. This is not just a study of ancient empires—it’s a call to spiritual discernment and civic engagement in our own time.

In this message, “Trusting The Hand That Holds Time,” Pastor Matthew Maher walks through Psalm 31 — a song of surrender, struggle, and steadfast faith. From David’s cry for refuge to his declaration of confidence, this psalm reminds us that when life feels out of control, our times are still in God’s hands. When the walls close in, when the world caves in, and when worship finally breaks through — faith learns to rest, not rush. Because peace isn’t found in holding everything together, but in trusting the One who holds all things, including time itself.

When life’s circumstances shake your confidence, God’s favor still stands. Psalm 30 reminds us that the darkest nights give way to the brightest mornings. David’s story moves from personal deliverance to public praise—from self-reliance to surrendered dependence. Seasons of midnight sorrow always yield to morning mercy.
