SHIFTING TO HIGHER WAYS

by | Aug 10, 2025 | Kingdom Culture

This VIVA SUNDAY, we’re gathering in person and online for an incredible time in God’s presence as we continue our Kingdom Culture series with Lead Pastor Frank Seixas. In this week’s message, SHIFTING TO HIGHER WAYS, we’re diving into Isaiah 55:6–13 and learning what it means to seek the Lord with urgency, let go of our own ways, and embrace His higher thoughts and plans. God is calling us to a deeper trust in His Word as our final authority and to live with joyful expectation for what He will do.

We’ll be reminded that His ways are not our ways, and His thoughts are far above our thoughts. While our perspective can often be limited by what we see and feel, God invites us into His greater vision—one where His promises always accomplish their purpose and never return void. As we align our lives with His truth, we can walk in joy, be led by peace, and experience transformation from the inside out.

Come expectant and ready for God to speak into your life. Whether you’re joining us in person or tuning in online, this is a moment to shift upward—to trust Him fully, follow His ways wholeheartedly, and walk in the abundant life He has for you. Let’s worship, grow, and move higher together as a church family.

Let’s worship, lean into the Word, and allow the Holy Spirit to speak to us today! If you’re watching online, drop a comment and let us know where you’re tuning in from. Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe to stay connected with all that God is doing at VIVA CHURCH! 🙌🔥

  • Pastor Frank Seixas

    I am Frank the co-lead Pastor and with my wife Chris are the founders of VIVA Church in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. I first came to Canada in 1987, following God’s call to permanently move from Brazil to Canada. In August 1992, I started VIVA Church. In January 1994, I married Chris, and in 1996, I graduated from the Nazarene Bible College of Canada. Later I was awarded Doctor of Divinity (DDiv) from Canada Christian College in 2022.

    With a vision to reach people for Jesus, VIVA Church has grown to become a positive influence for the Kingdom, not only in Oshawa but also by planting churches internationally in countries like Cambodia and Uganda. Beyond our work at the local church, I (Frank) serve the body of Christ on the boards of other ministries and churches, and I am part of the Apostolic Ministry of MFI-Canada. I also travel to speak at conferences and many churches around the world.

    Chris and I have dedicated more than 30 years to serving at VIVA Church, witnessing the salvation and growth of many. We have been blessed with two beautiful daughters: Leticia, our youngest, and Gabriella, our oldest, who is married to Matheus.
