In this message, the Spirit of God calls us to deeper faith, surrender, and spiritual maturity. Miracles—like the healing of young JJ from leukemia—are not rare exceptions, but the expected fruit of lives fully surrendered and walking in the authority of Jesus. God desires not just our love, but our whole hearts. This means moving from a transactional faith to total devotion—trusting Him in uncertainty and responding with obedience even when it's uncomfortable.
We are part of a generational relay. Spiritual inheritance is passed like a baton, and we must not drop what has been entrusted to us. The altar, both literal and symbolic, must again become the center of our lives. It is at the altar where transformation begins and strength is renewed for the race ahead. The story of Olympic runner John Stephen Akhwari, who finished his race despite injury, is a powerful metaphor—God calls us not only to start but to finish the race of faith, regardless of the cost.
To run with endurance and spiritual authority, we must build our lives on seven foundational “stones”:
Surrender – Laying down our will.
Sacrifice – Giving up comfort for calling.
Submission – Yielding to God and spiritual authority.
Obedience – Following God’s Word even when it’s difficult.
Love – The motive and fuel for everything.
Authority – Gained through faithful, obedient living.
Fruit – The lasting evidence of a transformed life.
This is not a call to spiritual mediocrity or shallow Christianity. God is inviting us to rebuild the altar—through prayer, fasting, and transparency—so we can carry the baton of revival forward. The altar is where we are changed, empowered, and made ready for His purpose.
Key Takeaways:
Miracles Flow from Prepared Hearts
God’s power moves through those who are surrendered and full of faith. JJ’s healing is a reminder that preparation—through prayer, faith, and obedience—creates an atmosphere where miracles are normal.

Being In Love with God Transforms Our Devotion
Many love God for what He does; few are in love with Him for who He is. True devotion involves surrender, trust, and following God even when it’s costly or unclear.

The Generational Baton Must Not Be Dropped
We are stewards of a spiritual legacy. The altar must be reclaimed as the center of our lives to ensure we pass on a vibrant, faithful walk to the next generation.

The Altar Is the Place of Power and Transformation
The altar is where we become transparent with God, find healing, and receive strength. Without it, we risk living shallow, fruitless lives. God is calling us back to the altar to experience the fullness of His work.
