Pastor Tolu Ayeni explained that the local church is God’s design for training, growth, and the move of the Holy Spirit. Believers are not meant to grow alone—God places us in a church where we are known, taught, prayed for, and equipped.

A healthy church is full of the Word and the gifts of the Spirit—teaching, prophecy, healing, and more. Church is a training ground, not just a place to receive blessings. It’s where believers learn doctrine, grow in faith, and are prepared for ministry.

God works through pastors to lead and teach the whole counsel of God. The church is our covering, support system, and spiritual family—where prayers are powerful and needs are met.
