Theme: Be Strong in the Lord – Christians are not meant to be weak and powerless but strong and resilient in their faith. Today, we touch on the reality of when the ‘Haters’ show up due to one’s faith in Jesus Christ and provide guidance on how to deal with them.
Key Scriptures: Isaiah 41:8-16, Ephesians 6:10-13
The key points include:
- Description of Haters: Haters are described as people who show strong destructive emotional responses or active antagonism towards others. They are seen as instruments of the devil, aiming to steal, kill, and destroy.
- Goals of Haters: The goals of Haters are to instil fear, steal joy, and ultimately destroy lives. The presentation emphasizes the need to combat fear and maintain confidence in God.
- God’s Promised Help: The presentation assures that God has promised to help His followers when they face Haters. This help comes in three forms:
- Assurance of God’s Help: God promises to strengthen and support His followers.
- God’s Help Through Us: God equips His followers with the ability to overcome obstacles and adversaries.
- God’s Direct Help: God acts on behalf of His followers, ensuring that those who oppose them will be ashamed and disgraced

Help Promised when the Haters Show Up
We Are Stronger Together
We meet in person at the All Nations’ Centre, Tyers Terrace, London SE11 5LY. You are very welcome to join us. All our Sunday Services start at 9.30 am. The doors open at 8.30 am, and the prayer service begins at 9 am. The All Nations’ Centre is where the community meets with God as a congregation. Please help us to make it a welcoming environment for all.
There are many advantages to meeting together. As the writer of the book of Hebrews writes, “And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.” (Hebrews 10:24-25) Do not miss this opportunity to meet and encourage your brothers and sisters! Often, we provide personal ministry and one-to-one encounters. Do not miss out on an opportunity to meet with God and be transformed. Do not miss out!
