The most powerful tool an ambassador carries is not a title or a flag, it is their message - and that message is only authentic when it comes from a deep understanding of the One they represent. Just as a worldly ambassador must know their nation, the leader of their nation, and everything their nation stands for, our ability to reflect God in the world flows from our intimacy with Him. Without that connection, we risk becoming impostors in our own calling.
In this interactive workshop, Pastor Sewa will dive into the life-transforming power of spending intentional time with God. Drawing on Scripture, she will reveal how our lives begin to mirror the heart, priorities, and character of the Lord, the more we dwell in His presence.

As ambassadors of Christ, it is essential to understand the reality of spiritual warfare. The moment you accept the assignment of an ambassador, you step into the role of a soldier prepared for battle. Carrying the message of the Kingdom of God into the kingdom of darkness will inevitably provoke resistance. Light exposes darkness and darkness fights back. This is the nature of spiritual warfare.
In Faith Under Fire, Pastor David will teach attendees how to recognize and respond to spiritual opposition with wisdom, authority, and faith. Just as fire reveals the authenticity of an object, opposition reveals the authenticity of our faith. Everything that can be shaken will be shaken and only what is unshakable will remain. Spiritual warfare, then, becomes an opportunity for refinement, shaping believers into individuals who can carry the prophetic word spoken over their lives.

Being an ambassador is a daily decision, and it requires daily faith. In this breakout session, attendees will explore the practical principles that allow them to live as ambassadors no matter their circumstances. Minister Clifford will teach on the realities that shape the lifestyle of an ambassador, including faithfulness in the small things, staying consistent and committed even when feelings do not align, personal development through daily disciplines, remaining grounded in God’s Word, and practicing obedience in everyday life.
Steps of Faith gives attendees the opportunity to begin practicing the lifestyle of an ambassador today. Every step is intentional and every action draws you closer to the One who has called you, a God who is faithful to guide and empower each step.
-
Saying yes to Jesus will cost the ambassador far more than they expected, yet it will lead to a glory far greater than they could have imagined. This reality requires the first steps of obedience to be taken by faith. Many people hesitate to step boldly into their calling because they are afraid. They are not sure whether what God offers is worth what they have to give up to completely surrender to His will and His way. Yet the life of Jesus shows that the only way to walk in the glory of our divine purpose is to lay down our lives. Dying to self is a difficult but necessary part of the journey because it is only through the refining fire that the ambassador receives a revelation of God’s glory and grace, allowing them to testify not just of what they have received but of who they have become by faith.
In The Cost of Glory, Siji Deleawe will draw on the model of Jesus to help attendees activate their faith and become ambassadors who can carry the weight of God’s glory. This session is particularly for those who feel frozen at the edge of obedience and afraid of what complete surrender might require. It is for those longing for the courage to trust that God’s will and way are better than the illusion of staying in control.

On the final day of JRML 2026, we’ll be closing out the conference with a special Send-Off Brunch, celebrating all that God has done throughout the weekend. It will be a joyful time of reflection, gratitude, and fellowship as we gather one last time together.
Below is the mood board for Sunday Brunch. The dress code is elevated streetwear. Come in your best fit. Think Jackie and Preston Perry or SBB Studios. Stylish, intentional, and confident while still honoring the spirit of the conference.
We can’t wait to celebrate with you in style as we’re sent out refreshed and empowered.
