Building a Healthy Church: Establishing Prayer, Word & Witness (1 Thess 1)

Sun, 01 Feb 2026 06:51:07 GMT

Pastor Goh Seng Fong taught that a healthy church grows naturally. Prioritise spiritual health over numbers. Establish prayer, the Word, and witness. Practise continual thanksgiving and “making mention” prayer. Serve together in humility and teamwork. Live with urgency in light of Christ’s imminent return. Intercede for labourers, missions, and souls. Depend on the Spirit’s power, not human strength. Become a caring, sharing community that glorifies God and advances the gospel until Jesus comes again.

Psalm 121

Sun, 07 Dec 2025 05:59:18 GMT

Ps Goh Seng Fong reflected on Psalm 121, reminding believers that while the hills of Jerusalem once symbolized stability, true help comes only from God, not from icons, rituals, or outward symbols. God is Yahweh and Elohim—the covenant-keeping Creator who protects, preserves, and guides His people without slumber. We must examine our lives, trust Him daily, cast our cares on Him, and avoid superficial faith. God works all things for good, keeps our soul, guards our steps, and remains our Helper now and forever.

Sun, 30 Nov 2025 07:38:45 GMT

Ps Goh Seng Fong preached on the name Emmanuel—God with us, for us, and in us. He reminded the church not to lose Christ beneath the trappings of Christmas, for Jesus is fully God, eternal, creator, all-powerful, all-knowing, unchanging, and the only Saviour who forgives sin. Emmanuel entered human suffering, died for our sins, rose again, destroys Satan’s works, and offers peace, hope, new life, and eternal glory to all who come to Him in repentance and faith.

Attitude on Top

Sun, 23 Nov 2025 08:32:12 GMT

Pastor Goh Seng Fong’s sermon on “Keeping My Attitude on Top” taught that attitude begins in the heart and shapes behavior. Believers must daily “die to self,” yield body and mind to Christ, and let the Holy Spirit rule their thoughts. From Philippians 4, he urged rejoicing in God’s presence, praying with thanksgiving, thinking on what is true and pure, and learning contentment. Through continual praise, right thinking, and generous giving, Christians grow in joy, peace, and Christ-like character under God’s faithful discipline.

Attitude Sagging (1 Kings 19)

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 07:43:53 GMT

Rev Dr Goh Seng Fong's sermon emphasized beginning well, shaping godly attitudes, and cultivating habits that honour Christ. Using examples—shoe salesmen, Elijah’s burnout, the twelve spies, and modern figures like Edison and Colonel Sanders—the message urged believers to reject fear, worry, blaming, self-pity, and approval-seeking. Instead, Christians should rest in their identity in Christ, rise above criticism, persevere through failure, renew their minds, and rely on God’s promises. He reminded the church to prepare for small groups in 2026 with confidence, humility, and faith.

Mind of Christ in Demonstration

Sun, 09 Nov 2025 09:39:31 GMT

Rev Dr Goh Seng Fong preached on *having the mind of Christ* (Phil 2:5–11). He taught that attitude springs from inward thoughts that shape our destiny—what we sow in thought becomes action, habit, character, and life. Believers must renew their minds and bring every thought into obedience to Christ, replacing negativity with godly thinking. Jesus showed a humble attitude: nothing to prove, lose, or hide. Knowing His identity and mission, He emptied Himself, obeyed unto death, and was exalted above all.

Attitude of Jesus

Sun, 02 Nov 2025 07:44:53 GMT

Rev Dr Goh Seng Fong preached on the attitude of Jesus, drawn from John 13:1–17. Jesus, knowing He came from and would return to the Father, humbled Himself to serve—washing His disciples’ feet in love. True attitude springs from a renewed heart, shaping character and conduct. Believers should have nothing to prove, lose, or hide, finding worth and security in Christ. With this identity, Christians can love unconditionally, serve sacrificially, reject pride and hypocrisy, and live with joy, humility, and eternal hope.

Faith

Sun, 14 Sep 2025 06:29:29 GMT

We are called to grow in faith through God’s Word, prayer, and obedience, trusting Christ who perfects our faith.

Ps Goh emphasized the often-forgotten ministry of the Holy Spirit, the third Person of the Trinity, fully God, to be worshipped alongside the Father and the Son. Recognize Him. Worship Him. Submit to Him. Do not seek to “use” the Spirit for miracles—let Him use us. Allow Him to comfort, indwell, empower, and intercede. Follow His leading. Trust His truth. Receive His love.

Rev Dr Goh Seng Fong’s sermon on Matthew 9:35–38 urged believers to embrace the heart of Jesus by becoming mission-hearted Christians.

Pray earnestly for workers to be sent into the harvest field, while we serve with urgency and love. Let the heart of Jesus shape our response to the needs of the world.

Sun, 27 Jul 2025 05:58:53 GMT

Servant Leader

Sun, 13 Jul 2025 06:26:52 GMT

Br Beng Leng’s sermon highlights the essence of being a servant leader rooted in Christ. Let us simplify our lives to grow in intimacy with Him. Be silent and allow Him to guide us.

We must recognize that leadership initiates change, influences others, and can be developed. Vision starts from within, and true servant leadership is always about serving people.

What is Life? (Luke 12:13-21)

Wed, 09 Jul 2025 16:00:00 GMT

This Sunday, Br Joshua Lim preached from the Parable of the Rich Fool, emphasizing that true life is not defined by material possessions, but by being rich toward God. He urged listeners to guard their hearts against covetousness and reject the lie that life consists in the abundance of things. Recognize that life is short and uncertain; therefore, steward your time, wealth, and opportunities for God’s kingdom. Discern your thoughts and motives carefully, and make choices led by the Spirit rather than by the flesh, living with eternity in view.

Suffer in this Life? - And why God allows Christians to suffer in this life?" (Job 1:1-3)

Mon, 07 Jul 2025 16:00:00 GMT

In Br. Kevin Soh’s sermon on June 29, titled “The Sufferings of Job – And Why God Allows Christians to Suffer in This Life” (Job 1:1–3), he emphasized that suffering is not always due to sin but may serve God's higher purposes. Job was upright, yet suffered intensely. God sometimes allows suffering to refine faith, humble pride, and display His glory. Christians, like Job, are called to trust God's sovereignty, even when His purposes remain hidden. Suffering can produce deeper holiness and dependence on God.

Sun, 06 Jul 2025 06:34:35 GMT

He encouraged believers to persevere like Abraham, Moses, and others, trusting that God rewards those who diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6).

Pray, Plan and Present!

Sun, 08 Jun 2025 06:06:53 GMT

In today’s sermon, Rev Dr Goh Seng Fong offered biblical and practical guidance on carrying out God’s plan for rebuilding His church. Reconstruction is not a task for leaders alone—it is a shared burden carried by the whole body of Christ. We must first observe our circumstances with spiritual discernment, then move forward together. The best ideas begin with leaders but must grow through collective conviction. Like Jesus, we must touch hearts before we call hands to action. Let us identify with those we serve, encourage one another, and press on in God’s strength and calling.

Pray and Plan

Sun, 01 Jun 2025 06:48:34 GMT

Rev Dr Goh Seng Fong’s sermon today on Nehemiah reminded the church that God is more interested in our lives than in our ministries. Leaders must be built in character, for churches may grow and yet fail if the leader themselves are spiritually immature. Pray without ceasing, pray and wait, pray and plan. Expect great things from God and attempt great things for Him. While it costs to serve God, it also pays. Count the costs, and by God’s grace, start well and finish strong, giving what cannot be kept to gain what cannot be lost.

Formation of Nehemiah

Sun, 18 May 2025 06:10:42 GMT

Rev Dr Seng Fong Goh’s sermon at Tabernacle Baptist Church Singapore today taught that leadership is for everyone and involves continual growth. Nehemiah, a layman serving at the peak of his career, responded to God’s call. He was sensitive to the needs of his people, and recognised God’s sovereignty, leading others to rebuild both the walls and their spirituality. The message challenged believers to reflect on whether their own lives have aligned with God’s purpose. Have we pursued unity, mission, and revival which are God's will for us? Like Caleb, let us embrace bold, faith-driven choices for God’s glory.

Lessons from Mary

Sun, 11 May 2025 06:03:28 GMT

Rev Dr Goh Seng Fong’s Mothers’ Day special sermon at Tabernacle Baptist Church SIngapore reflected on Mary as the exalted one—a woman who received God’s word with unwavering faith, professing, “Be it unto me according to thy word” (Luke 1:38). God, always perfectly on time, chose Mary to bear Christ after 480 years of silence. Her faith asked “how,” not “why.” Though she bore lifelong shame, she surrendered to God’s will. Like Mary, we must trust God’s timing. The Holy Spirit is already in our midst—therefore let the church reveals Christ through collective confession of faith, heeding His calling in obedience.

Sun, 04 May 2025 06:27:02 GMT

At today’s sermon, Rev. Dr. Goh Seng Fong emphasized that the strength and effectiveness of a church depend greatly on its leadership. Church leaders must know God intimately and discern His will clearly. God is the source of all provision, the sovereign ruler over all things, and the righteous judge of our lives. These truths highlight the imperative of living holy lives that please God. A well-run church flows from leaders who walk in obedience, humility, and deep reverence for God's authority and presence.

Journeying with Christ in Prayer

Sun, 27 Apr 2025 06:23:12 GMT

Rev Dr Goh Seng Fong at today's service in Tabernacle Baptist Church Singapore exhorted the congregation to depend on God through prayer, not merely be excited by works. Prayer is vital: we must be intercessors, making the church a true house of prayer. Watch and pray and enter into God’s works. Pray for people in the midst of life's transition, also those who are in trials and troubles. Distance cannot limit our prayer’s reach. Like Jesus, who withdrew to pray instead of seeking crowds, we must seek God Himself. Therefore, be ye Christ-like—follow Jesus’ dependence on the Father through prayer!

Victory over Doubts

Sun, 20 Apr 2025 05:39:40 GMT

Rev Dr Goh Seng Fong’s Resurrection Sunday sermon at Tabernacle Baptist Church Singapore inspires us: Be not faithless, but believe! Like Thomas, we might sometimes struggle with doubts, despite seeing God’s goodness. Shake off pessimism and speak life-giving words of faith. Break free from habits of unbelief. Miracles alone can't sustain faith, but trusting in God’s living Word does. Believe first, then you’ll truly see. Blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed! Joyfully embrace Jesus as your Lord and God today!

Nails of Jesus

Fri, 18 Apr 2025 06:34:08 GMT

On this Good Friday, Rev. Dr. Goh Seng Fong led congregrants of Tabernacle Baptist Church to reflect on the profound significance of the Cross. Though each of us bears a long list of sins and walks through moments of pain, anxiety, and sorrow, God knows them all—and still, He chose to forgive. In His perfect love, He sent His Son to carry our burden, to satisfy both justice and mercy. The very hands that shaped us, healed us, and held us in grace were the ones pierced for our sake. As we gaze upon the Cross, let us grasp the depth of His mercy—a mercy that reaches as far as our sin and meets us in every moment of suffering with hope, healing, and redemption.

Answers to the Great Call to Prayer (Jer 33:1-3)

Mon, 14 Apr 2025 05:37:39 GMT

How earnestly do you pray when troubles strike? Do you pray with confidence in God’s power, or merely out of routine?

Turn from self-righteousness, reject worldly distractions, and forsake lukewarm faith. Lift your eyes from your problems and look to the Almighty, for with Him, nothing is too hard. Pray sincerely—not with selfish motives or delay—but with trust in His divine provision. Seek Him fervently and persistently; pray rightly, and He will answer beyond what you ask or imagine. Be earnest, broken, and bold in prayer. God promises to show great and mighty things which thou knowest not.

Is there anything too hard for the Lord?

Sun, 06 Apr 2025 07:28:23 GMT

Reflect on Rev Dr Goh Seng Fong’s stirring message: Is anything too hard for the Lord? This is the God of revival and resurrection—Elohim, El Shaddai, Yahweh—who brings life to what seems hopeless and dead. Trust in His promises as Abraham did when all seemed impossible, and as Elijah did when he prayed down fire from heaven. Pray boldly, for He delights to answer.

In our struggles, lift your eyes above the problems—God is able. No one is too lost to be saved; remember the Samaritan woman, and the thief on the cross. Expect revival, even among the valley of dry bones. Let the Spirit breathe life into what appears beyond repair. Obey His Word, believe without wavering, and pray with persistence. Be part of the mighty army God is raising—revived, empowered, and alive through His promises.
