CCB NYC - Pastor Luis and Yahaira Guzman

Pastor Luis Guzman delivers a powerful message titled “Preparation – Part 1”, a word designed to guide, strengthen, and prepare our hearts for what God is doing in this season.

Today’s message comes from Luke 4:1–13, where Jesus is led into the wilderness and faces temptation—but responds with the Word of God. We’ll also touch on Deuteronomy 8:3, 6:13, and 6:16, reminding us to depend on God, trust His voice, and stand firm without compromise.This message is for anyone going through a season of testing, pressure, or isolation—because the wilderness isn’t where you break, it’s where God builds you!Don’t forget to like, comment, and share—and get ready to receive this Word!

In this message, Pastor Guzman unpacks how these two spiritual struggles—fear that keeps us silent and offense that keeps us bound—can quietly affect our faith, our relationships, and our walk with God. Through the Word, we’ll learn how the Lord calls His people to respond with courage, humility, and forgiveness. Today’s teaching will be rooted in Matthew 18:15–35 and 1 Kings 3:1–28 from the New Living Translation (NLT) Bible. These passages guide us through Jesus’ instruction on dealing with offense, forgiveness, and reconciliation, along with the wisdom God gave to King Solomon to discern truth and bring justice. As you listen, take a moment to reflect on your own heart. Are there areas where fear has kept you from standing in truth? Or places where offense has made it hard to forgive? Let’s open our hearts to what God wants to speak today. Here is Pastor Luis Guzman.

Today’s message is titled “Yesterday, Today, and Forever.” Pastor Luis Guzman will be reading from 1 Samuel 16:1–13, the moment when the prophet Samuel is sent by God to the house of Jesse to anoint the next king of Israel. This is the powerful story where God chooses David — not because of his appearance, not because of his position, but because of his heart. While others were looking at the outside, God was looking deeper. And that same truth still speaks to us today. In this message, Pastor Luis is going to talk about how the God who called David from the shepherd’s field is the same God who is still calling people today. The God who worked in the past is still moving in our present, and His promises remain faithful forever. Let’s get into the Word.

Today we’re diving into a powerful word preached by Pastor Luis Guzman titled “Active Faith.” Our scripture readings come from Matthew 8:5–10 and Luke 8:40–45 — two incredible moments where faith and healing collide. In one story, a Roman centurion believes Jesus can heal his servant with just a word. In the other, a woman suffering for twelve years presses through the crowd just to touch the hem of His garment. What do these two stories have in common? They show us that faith is not passive — it moves. It reaches. It believes before seeing. And it activates the power of God. If you’ve been praying for healing, breakthrough, or a miracle, this message will remind you that active faith still gets Heaven’s attention. Stay tuned, be encouraged, and let’s grow together in faith.

Pastor Yahaira Guzman brings a powerful and timely word titled “What Are You Really Running From?” Reading from Jonah chapter 1 in the Book of Jonah, this message challenges us to take an honest look at our hearts. Are we running from a place… or are we running from obedience, purpose, and God’s calling on our lives? Through the story of Jonah, we’re reminded that we can’t outrun God’s presence, and sometimes the storms we face are opportunities for redirection—not destruction. Get ready to be encouraged, convicted, and inspired to stop running and start walking in your purpose. Let’s lean in and receive this word!

Pastor Milton De Jesus enlightened us today with a powerful and inspiring message, reading from John chapter 5. He preached his heart out, sharing the Word with passion, clarity, and deep conviction. Through the Scripture, we were reminded of God’s healing power, His compassion, and the call to rise in faith and obedience. The message ministered to our hearts and strengthened our walk, leaving us encouraged, challenged, and grateful for what God did through His servant.

Today we were blessed as Pastor Luis Guzman preached a challenging and encouraging message titled, ‘God’s Love and Will.’​ He led us through Matthew 7:15–20 and 21–23, showing how Jesus warns us about false prophets and reminds us that saying ‘Lord, Lord’ is not enough without a life that truly does the Father’s will and bears good fruit. Pastor Luis then took us to Matthew 22:34–40, where Jesus summarizes God’s will in two great commandments: to love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, and mind, and to love our neighbor as ourselves.​ Through this message, we were called to examine our hearts, to move beyond empty words and religious appearance, and to live in genuine obedience shaped by God’s love for us and our love for Him and others. If this word spoke to you, be sure to like, share, and subscribe so more people can hear about God’s Love and Will.

Do you see it?’” “This is a season of renewal. A moment of transformation. A call to the heart of hearts.”
