Pastor Frank Hampton Jr. Sermons

A Spiritual Reformation

Much let-down occurred in the previous generations, leaving the current condition of the church in a mess. Now, in order to get the church in a place where she is ready to meet Christ, extraordinary work must take place. Unless we do something far beyond what has been deemed “normal”, we will most certainly go under. It is time to examine and clean up our personal experiences and the church with the same zeal with which Jesus purged the temple. The enemy is coming to destroy the church, and only those who have a clear vision, confidence with God, and are in tune with the Spirit are in position to fight him. A spiritual reformation is taking place; don’t get left behind!

Hospitality

Christians without excuse, must be entirely given to fervent hospitality. If not careful, we welcome the thought of being the beneficiary of passionate hospitality but hesitate at the thought of extending it. Our making heaven is dependent on the way we spend ourselves and that which we own for the comfort of our fellow saint and human brother. May the Lord, in light of the upcoming meeting help us to be the benefactors of intense, Christian hospitality.

Spiritual Authority

The only thing that the devil respects is spiritual authority from heaven! This message from heaven, delivered with the help of the Holy Ghost during a fellowship meeting in Springfield, Ohio, is vital for this very hour in the gospel day. Spiritual authority is not a far-off thing that only certain saints can possess; it is available to every one of us: accumulated by living a detailed and consecrated life. Salvation is not a one-sided relationship! You don't fast and pray and sacrifice on your end and God not pour out on you in return. If you are living detailed and consecrated life, then you have authority from God as surely as you are alive: you must only exercise it. However, if there are any question marks in your life, then when the time comes when spiritual authority is needed, those questions will stop you from going any further. Saints, if your walk with God allows you to have true confidence, then it is time for you to exercise that authority. The need is very great!

Salvation According to the Scriptures

Christianity as we know it, in 2024 is confusion. Currently there is a surplus of ideas, “brands”, and thoughts around the topic of salvation. Our only hope of properly comprehending this essential knowledge for which Christ came and died, so that the totality of His human family be reconciled to God and to each other, is that our understanding be rooted in the holy scriptures. Today, our prayer connects with brother apostle Paul, that we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive.

From Glory to Glory

The experience of a true saint of God goes from glory to glory with no intermission; if you are truly saved and sanctified, this is invariably the case! If you have kept your hands clean and walked in the Spirit, then there is no other experience for you to have. This experience is fully available, and also necessary. Pastor Hampton could not understand why good saints were not on the level that it seemed they could and should be until God revealed to him the reason: even those with good spirits will have a gloomy experience if they do not continually obtain new levels in which to glory. Yesterday’s glory cannot suffice for today. So those who rejoice in yesterday’s glory become stagnate. Let every one of us seek a higher plane of glory for today!

A Great Sin

We can most solemnly agree with the Hebrew writer when he wrote “it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God”. The church, Mt. Zion, or Christ’s tangible and visible body likewise, is a gravitas people, who sit in gravitas places, and adhere to a gravitas message. May God help us to understand and guard ourselves against “The Great Sin”. 

The Violent Take It By Force

Unless you get violent, you will never get anywhere with God, for the devil himself is standing between you and God to resist you. And you must press past the devil and his thousands of years of experience in deferring people from getting to God! To get what God has for you, you must disregard your limits and be more forceful and relentless than the devil. So many have started a quest for God and been thrown off course because they were not willing to be as violent as it takes. So friend, will you press past the enemy and your limits to get what God has for you? God wants to give you what you are seeking, but are you willing to take it by force? May we all be burdened about this as much as Pastor Hampton was that it may drive us to action!

God's Judiciary System

The concept of a judiciary system did not find origin, nor was it the discovery of any eastern historical world power, such as Egypt, Persia, or Rome; it originated from God. As the Creator of humanity, God has a system of judgement in place that His entire family of mankind, consisting of every nation, kindred, language, and people is caught in, seeing as all souls are His. May our cry connect with dear brother Amos, that “judgment would run down as waters” in the world, in God’s church, and in our personal lives understanding as the prophet, our brother, Isaiah did that “Zion will be redeemed with judgment”. Date preached unknown. 

It's Time To Seek the Lord

People of God, it’s time to seek the Lord until He rains righteousness upon us! God is truly eager to unleash His power upon His people, but very few are willing to go as far as it takes to move God to work. It is the duty of the church to bring the presence of God down into our midst, for it is the consistent manifestation of the power of God that draws the world to Zion. Can we be called God’s people if we are not able to manifest the promises of God in every case? God is doing His best to wake up those who are sleeping and have been affected by this lukewarm age. We must first be stirred up before we will seek God fervently enough to stir Him up, and often God sends a crisis to stir us up to this level. Saints of God, do not let this be the case; let the Word of God be the cause that stirs us up to seek God until He directly responds!
