Description

Pastor Wilkerson addresses the widespread complaint of believers unable to find a biblically sound church, arguing that they're searching in the wrong place—the right church begins in your own home through personal prayer and ministry to God.


Main Points:

• The search starts on your knees - Finding the right church begins in private prayer, not by visiting different buildings or revivals


• God's covenant promise - Drawing from Jeremiah 33, God promises to always maintain a holy priesthood and restore his church, even when it appears in ruins


• All believers are priests - Every Christian washed in Christ's blood is part of a "royal priesthood," not just ordained clergy


• Two types of ministries - The Abiathar priesthood (ministers to people's idolatrous desires) versus the Zadok priesthood (ministers to God first)


• Church begins at home - Before seeking a church building, establish daily family altar, personal prayer time, and worship in your household


• Ministry to God, not just programs - True church is about ministering to the Lord, not just having needs met through church programs and activities


• God will lead the faithful - Those who establish prayer and worship at home will be led by God to find other like-minded believers
