Praise & WOrship
Praise & Worship
At The City of Refuge, we believe that worship is more than just a time during our services—it’s a lifestyle. Through Spirit-filled praise and worship, we celebrate the Lord for who He is and all He has done. We emphasize worship because it’s essential for a church that desires to follow the Holy Spirit. As the Psalmist declares, "The Lord inhabits the praises of His people" (Psalm 22:3), and we wholeheartedly welcome His presence in our midst.
Worship is our way of honoring God, not only in gatherings but in every moment of our lives. He is worthy of our praise, and it is our privilege to bless Him for His goodness, mercy, and power. Gathering together in His name allows His presence to flow, bringing healing, prophetic words, and divine ministry to His body. We aim to live with hearts of gratitude, continually acknowledging His greatness and blessing His name in all we do (I Thessalonians 5:18).
Here, worship is a joyful, intimate encounter where we connect with the Father, and our hearts are moved by His love. It’s not just a moment—it’s the very atmosphere in which we are called to live, move, and minister.
Prophetic Culture
The Church of Jesus Christ is supposed to be a prophetic church, one that hears the Word of God and immediately responds and obeys.
{John 10:27} … My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me
God is raising a prophetic people who will apostolically carry the gospel of the kingdom to the ends of the earth. At the City of Refuge, we are establishing a prophetic culture, a healthy church that hears the voice of God with clarity, a church on the front lines; a company of Prophets, a people equipped, bold, and firm about what God is saying and what the Spirit is doing in this season. Come join us as we train and grow in the prophetic, equipping and releasing a prophetic people that will impact the kingdom of God in the city, the state, and the nations.
The prophetic lifestyle should be embraced and become an important part of church life and culture, both inside and outside the four walls of the church.

Biblical Teaching
Biblical Teaching
At The City of Refuge, we hold the Bible as the absolute and unchanging truth, without compromise. God’s Word is forever settled in heaven, and we believe that anything that does not align with Scripture must be brought into submission to its truth.
The Word of God is the foundation of our faith, yet the enemy has sought to cloud understanding and lead many astray. As Hosea 4:6 warns, “My people perish for lack of knowledge,” and it is through the Word that we gain wisdom and truth that leads to freedom (John 8:31-32). It is our commitment to teach the Bible in its purest form, rejecting worldly traditions and human wisdom, so that every believer is equipped with the full revelation of God’s truth.
Jesus is the Word made flesh, and it is through His Word that we come to know Him intimately and clearly. The Bible serves as the mirror (James 1:23) that reflects who we are in the Spirit, revealing our true identity in Christ. Our teaching is rooted in this divine truth, delivered in love and without compromise (Ephesians 4:15), so that no one is led astray by the fears or influences of this world. We are committed to preaching and living out the unabridged truth of Scripture, as it is the power of God for salvation and transformation.
