A New Dawn in your family doesn't happen by accident. It happens when someone decides that dysfunction stops with them. In this message, Pastor DEJI unpacks God's design for parental relationships and the powerful role families play in shaping faith, identity, and future generations. From honouring parents and raising godly children, to addressing unhealthy patterns, generational baggage, and difficult family dynamics, this message is both a challenge and an invitation to build homes that reflect the heart of God. You may not be responsible for where you came from, but in Christ, you can decide what continues and what ends with you.

What if the emptiness you’ve been feeling isn’t because something is missing, but because something in you is waiting to be awakened? In this message, Pastor DEJI explores what it means to experience a New Dawn in your calling and purpose. More than a career, your calling is God’s assignment for your life, something He established long before you were born. Discover why purpose is one of the most overlooked pillars of life, why survival was never meant to become your identity, and how true fulfillment is found when you align your life with what God created you to do. This message will challenge you to stop settling for existing and start living with intention, conviction, and purpose.

In this Easter message, we are reminded that the resurrection is not just a moment in history, it is a pattern for our lives. God’s design has always been that life comes out of death, that what feels like loss, failure, or delay is often the very ground where new life begins to grow. This teaching re-frames how we walk through difficult seasons. Instead of despair, we are called to carry a consciousness of resurrection, to refuse murmuring, and to trust that God is working even in what feels like the end. Because for the believer, death is never final. It is a transition into something greater.

In this episode of the Lighthouse Church podcast, Pastor Deji speaks about the three biblical types of tongues and then dives into why this practice is essential for a "new dawn" in a believer's life. The sermon clarifies that tongues manifest in three distinct ways: as a prayer language, as a message for the body, and as a miracle of tongues. The core of the message focuses on how praying in the spirit acts as a catalyst for personal and spiritual breakthroughs.

In this opening message of the New Dawn series, Unlocking Your New Dawn, we are reminded that new seasons are not birthed casually. Just as Elijah prayed until rain broke forth, there are promises, prophecies, and ordained breakthroughs that will not manifest without travailing prayer. This message calls us higher into precision in prayer, and spiritual intensity. When something contradicts Scripture, we do not adjust the Word to fit our reality. We pray until the gates break, until victory settles in our spirit, and until the new dawn breaks forth.

Q&A Sunday Part 4 || A New Dawn | Love Month || Part 10 || Second Service by Lighthouse Church Ottawa

In Part 1 of our Love Month Q&A, Pastors DEJI and Bukky addressed the real pressures people are facing in relationships today. From navigating difficult dating seasons to confronting the weight of past wounds and expectations carried into marriage, this conversation is honest, balanced, and deeply rooted in biblical wisdom. If you are single, dating, or married and trying to build something healthy without ignoring real issues, this episode will challenge your thinking and steady your heart.

In this sermon, Pastor Deji addresses the "Right Perspective About Marriage", emphasising that marriage is an institution created by God for His purposes rather than just personal happiness. Using Genesis 2:18 as the main text, Pastor Deji highlights that God initiated the union between man and woman to provide a "helper" with complementary skills to fulfil a divine assignment. The sermon outlines three primary purposes for marriage: spiritual growth and sanctification, discipleship and legacy, and kingdom building.
