Allen Jackson Ministries

Understanding God’s perspective, so that we can honor Him and serve Him with our lives, is a significant part of what it means to be a Christ-follower. Pastor Allen encourages us to awaken from our slumber and arise to be the people of God, standing in the public square, giving glory and honor to Almighty God, and lifting up the name of Jesus without shame or embarrassment, for greater is He who’s for us than everything that’s arrayed against us.

We can see what repentance and holiness looks like by reading the book of Leviticus. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses Leviticus and offers specific ways it applies to our lives as Christ-followers. Moses gave the Hebrew people a lengthy list of practices they needed to do to be cleansed from sin. Then, God ushered in something new—we are reconciled to Him through our faith in Jesus. Would we be able to recognize God doing something new today, or would we hold on to tradition or what's comfortable? As we read Leviticus, we can imagine our High Priest—Jesus—taking our offerings directly to the Lord on our behalf.

Leviticus may seem like a book filled with irrelevant details, but it holds many important truths for Christ-followers. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson shows how the principles presented in Leviticus are reflected in the New Testament and can inform our faith today. As we consider the rules for sanctification, holiness, worship, offerings, sacrifices, and purity, we can learn foundational truths about the character of God, His perspective, and His expectations.

God is very aware of our weaknesses, yet He still created a plan for our redemption; it’s an amazing statement of grace. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson talks about the book of Leviticus and what the Hebrew people needed to do to please God. Being familiar with the Old Testament will help us understand the New Testament. When we give our lives to Jesus and offer ourselves as living sacrifices, we strengthen the Church, build His Kingdom, please Him, and invite His blessings.

We’re living in a season of tremendous turmoil, and many wonder if we’re approaching the End of the Age. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how the events we’re witnessing may signal the End of the Age—or we could be experiencing the end of the American empire. He discusses our growing national debt and the increasing expressions of immorality in our culture. To move forward, our nation needs a heart change, and that begins in His Church—your heart and my heart. Pastor Allen talks about the problem of pride, helps us recognize what it looks like in our lives, and offers prayers to help us find freedom from it.

God has invited us into a discussion—are we willing to listen? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson offers examples of God speaking to people directly, through prayer, and through His Word. God continues to do the same thing today. If we want to hear from the Lord regularly, we need to become better listeners. As we learn to recognize His voice and choose to follow what He tells us to do, we will experience His blessings.

How does the Word of God apply to our lives today? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson walks through passages in Acts and Ephesians, discussing the early church in Ephesus and how it parallels today's Church. To be an effective Christ-follower, we need to intentionally grow in our faith so we can discover new freedom, power, and restoration through Jesus. If we ask, the Holy Spirit will reveal what's hindering our faith, including bitterness and unforgiveness. Pastor Allen offers practical steps we can take to nurture our growth, along with a series of powerful prayers that can help set us free.

You can invite God’s favor into someone’s life through the powerful practices of blessing and anointing. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson explains these two tools, which carry tremendous spiritual authority yet are often left unused. Anointing someone (or yourself) with oil is a way of setting them apart for God’s purposes and inviting the Holy Spirit’s help in their lives. It’s a practice we can implement in our relationships today, as we anoint and speak blessings over others and ourselves. We can also experience blessings from God Himself—health, vitality, prosperity, victory, and more—as we choose to obey and follow Him.

Strategy, Tactics & Your Unseen Adversary — The Rest of the Story

It’s possible to be living under a curse and not realize it. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the significance of blessings and curses, and how they come into our lives. When we choose to follow God and His commands, we invite His blessings; but if we decide to turn away and pursue ungodly behaviors, we open ourselves to curses. Understanding these spiritual truths can help us recognize God’s response to our behaviors. Pastor Allen offers steps we can take to invite God’s blessings into our lives and a strategy that can free us from curses.

We can’t see them with our eyes, but we face very real spiritual adversaries every day. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the spiritual conflict happening around us and within us right now. Our adversary seeks our destruction, and we need to recognize how he operates and develop a plan to help us overcome his lies. Pastor Allen has spent his life understanding how to deal with unseen adversaries, and he offers strategies and tactics to help us stand in our faith.

If you’re comfortable with the familiar, it can be hard to recognize when God is doing something new. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson talks about the reality of our spiritual blindness and what we can do about it. To see and hear from God, we need obedient hearts that are willing to cooperate with His Spirit. God is waking up His people as we walk through this deceptive season. We want to be aware of what He’s doing so we can be prepared to follow Him in a new way.

To flourish in the season ahead, we desperately need two things: to be aware of the Light around us, and to be willing to embrace God’s Truth. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the importance of spiritual vision; It enables us to recognize God’s movement, and discern truth from lies, good from evil, and darkness from light. Jesus is the only solution to what plagues us. Drawing close to Him, reading God’s Word, sharing our God-stories, and voicing our biblical worldview can help strengthen our faith and bring others into His light.

Do you realize the authority you have in Jesus’ name, and the power of putting your faith into practice? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses fundamentals of our faith—the gospel really is enough to change the trajectory of our lives and our nation. In the book of Acts, we see the disciples praying, healing, performing miracles, and being bold advocates for the gospel. As we follow their example and put our faith into action today, God can move in a mighty way through us.

To understand our circumstances, we need insight and understanding that goes beyond what we can gather with our five senses. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses our need for spiritual vision—the ability to see and discern the spiritual things happening around us. He offers examples of people who received this type of insight in scripture, and how it changed the trajectory of their lives and even their generation. We open the door to spiritual vision when we welcome the Holy Spirit into our lives and faithfully follow His leading. As we seek Him, He will reveal the insight we need to carry out our purposes in God’s Kingdom.

What are we unable to see, and how is our blindness leading us astray? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses our need for spiritual vision. We need insight beyond what we can see, feel, hear, taste, and touch—and that can only come from God and our willingness to follow Him. Pastor Allen discusses the many people in Hebrews 11 who show us what it looks like to have spiritual vision, including Noah, Moses, and Joseph. As lawlessness and censorship grow, we need to know what’s true, and the same type of faith and insight we see in Hebrews 11 is available to us today, if we’re willing to receive it.

How do we position ourselves to receive the full blessings of God? It begins by purposely cultivating humility and rooting out pride in our daily lives—and that’s what Pastor Allen Jackson discusses in this sermon. When we choose to serve God, be obedient to Him, and live sacrificially, our humility grows. But pride leads to our destruction. Pastor Allen offers several examples of people from the Bible who were blessed by being humble, as well as those who allowed their pride to remove God’s blessings from their lives. God blesses us as we practice the behaviors that allow humility to emerge in our lives.

The Spirit of God offers each of us a personal invitation towards freedom. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how all the freedoms we enjoy come directly from God, and for our children to know the liberties and freedoms we do, the Church must be alive, healthy, and vibrant. God will respond to us as we repent and pray for ourselves, our communities, and our nation. Pastor Allen then leads the congregation in a prayer to ask God into our lives and offers an invitation towards baptism.

The power and authority of Jesus is available to help you overcome whatever challenge you face today. Pastor Allen Jackson shows how Jesus made the way for a personal relationship with Almighty God by paying the highest price—and how our belief in Jesus gives us tremendous barrier-breaking power. He also discusses the importance of repenting, renouncing, and releasing anything that separates us from God, so we can fulfill God’s purpose for our lives.

What do you believe about Jesus? Do you know Him as your Savior? Do you know Him as a healer? Do you know Him as someone who baptizes in the Spirit? Do you know Him as a deliverer? Do you know Him as a restorer of dreams? Do you know Him as Lord—or do you still dictate policy to Him? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how being “lost” extends beyond those who don’t know the Lord—it also applies to Christ-followers who don't know Him fully, losing or forfeiting the opportunities of their faith, due to their own choices and resistance. Our strength, power, and direction come from diligently seeking God, drawing close to Him, listening to Him, and following Him.
