Pastor Frank Hampton Jr. Sermons

To Destroy

There is not a bone of sympathy, remorse, or warmheartedness in Satan. He is maniacal, unreasonable, and thoughtless. Satan's job is not finished until your soul is lost or your usefulness for God is annihilated. Yes, Satan rarely loses any cases but neither are we ignorant of his devices. God help us all to function in fear towards God and not toy with the enemy of our soul. 
Preached on: June 15, 2003 (Jackson, MI)

Go Forward

Once God responds to your prayer, it is no longer time to pray about it, it is time to go forward! Praying when God tells you to act is only a waste of time. When you are walking with God, you are always moving forward; it is never of God to be in a state where you feel like you should not go forward. If you get out of line, then God will help you to get back in line so you can go forward. When God says go forward, even if you don't know where or how you are going, go forward, and God will create a path if necessary! The text for this message is Exodus 14:1-15.

Strength to Bring Forth

Every saint of God ought to have the power to pray down the power of God when any situation arises that necessitates it. Christ, in Mark 16:17, said that the signs "shall follow them that believe." The strength to bring forth is not limited to the ministers and preachers. However, this power is accumulated, so you will not get it with a busy lifestyle or an inconsistent experience. The power to bring forth is not optional: a situation will arise when it is up to you to bring forth, and you very well may have to answer to God in the judgment if a soul did not break through, or a healing did not take place because of you inability to bring forth. So be honest with yourself; do you have strength to bring forth?

After Ye Have Suffered

Hardship is an indispensable ingredient in the recipe of Christian success. Mainstream Christendom has often times attempted to completely eradicate this requisite ingredient, not realizing that suffering is in fact at the very core of what it means to be a Christian; so much so that without it, you are no "Christ-ian" at all. Perfection, establishment, and strengthening is on the other side of pain properly endured. Christian, reject your flesh, take up your cross, and endure hardness as a good solider of Jesus Christ. 
Preached in Escondido, CA, during the year 1983. 

The Right Pitch

Unless you really get down to business with God and get to a place where you can be stirred to a certain fervor, you will never be effective spiritually. Being fully honest with yourself, it is clearly seen that every move of God historically and recently was a direct result of the fervency that the saints accumulated by being unsatisfied with the prevailing condition. Heating up to the level of fervency that will move God is only attained through a relentless and unyielding pursuit; before this, however, you will have allowed the prompting of God and the work of the enemy to have stirred you up. Do not let this word from heaven leave you unchanged! Let God work in you the purpose for which it was sent!

Tempted In All Points

It’s one thing to require something of others when you have no experience with it yourself, but it’s another thing to have actually gotten your hands dirty so that you can lead by your personal example. This is precisely what Christ has done for us in our Christian journey. He requires of us nothing more than what he, himself dealt with firsthand. Take courage, mighty Christian, while facing your daily battles knowing that your Saviour was tempted as a man in every conceivable way, just like you are. 
Preached in: September 2004 (Annual Jackson Meeting)

Preparing for the Blessing

God is not stingy with His blessings, but He will not bless you unless your life is clear in every aspect. Many people desire God's blessings, but do not understand why they are not getting them. Pastor Hampton, by God's help, gives the solution to this dilemma. Before you will be blessed God, you must prepare for the blessing. You must be willing to reason with God, and be honest and humble enough to acknowledge and deal sufficiently with anything He shows you. Once you clear the way, God will pour out His blessings upon you, as He has been desiring to do.

He Delighteth In Mercy

There is notion in the atmosphere that would have you to believe that God and His way of life is oppressive and tyrannical. Many today have bought into this false narrative and have become turned off to God and his religion without substantive cause. In today's episode Pastor Hampton beautifully advances to us that God’s nature is not negative, destructive, or damning, but rather the polar opposite. He is stimulated by extending mercy. Even when God pronounces his judgement it’s always out of love, and never motivated by revenge. Thank God for his unmerited, undeserved, and under appreciated mercy that He extends to all his human children on a daily basis.

Prepared for the Aggression

We are living in a time of violent spiritual warfare. Our foe is aggressive, and so are all of his forces. Through his aggression, and the lack of aggression of those who claim to be God's people, this entire world is under the devil's sway. He has taken the world and a great portion of the church through his violence, and it is only through a greater violence and aggression that will we take it back! Only through spiritual aggressiveness can we be prepared for the devil's aggression. Without this violent mentality, we will struggle just to keep what we have instead of invading the enemy's territory. But with this aggressive attitude, be it fully known that we will make the devil back up! He can only hold up under the consistent onslaught of a divine aggression for so long before he breaks!

Don't Let Him Get Started

Any spiritual failure or fall that has taken place occurred because the devil was given a space to work; he was allowed to get started. Somewhere an thought was entertained, a feeling was savored, or conversation, started by the devil, was continued. The devil can cause no destructive end if there is no place to start. Pastor Hampton admonished the saints with this word from heaven, realizing that giving no place to the devil is the only way that will overcome all of his pitfalls and tricks! We must cast down the thoughts and suggestions that the devil brings immediately! Let us all give very earnest heed to the things that were spoken by the servant of God, because if you give the devil an inch, he will take a mile.
