    Are you spending quality time with your Creator and having an intimate walk with Him? Considerable time in the presence of God will facilitate us not only to be spirit filled but have the mind of Christ.

    Opening illustration: It has been said, “Any idiot can be complicated; but it takes genius to be simple.” Indeed, the most effective oral and written communicators are those who take profound truths and make them simple. This has bearing on every area of our lives. When we communicate ...read more

    The Work Of The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Aug 21, 2013
     | 3,407 views

    When Jesus told his disciples that he would send the Holy spirit after his ascension, he revealed the work that the Holy Spirit would be doing. The Holy Spirit would convict, convince, reveal, guide and bring glory to Jesus.

    THE WORK OF THE HOLY SPIRIT John 16:8-15 1) The Holy Spirit convinces and convicts (Vs. 8-11). The word that John uses in verse 8 to describe the work of the Spirit is variously translated—reprove, convict, convince. The Greek word is elegchein which is used for the cross-examination of a ...read more

    Desperation And Transformation

     | 9,851 views

    There are too many people in our churches today who want to follow Jesus and yet they reject the Bible. We need to be desperate for more of God.

    Back in the 1990’s a friend of mine pioneered church in Liberty, Missouri called Desperation Church. In 1995 Marie Barnett wrote the song Breathe, the chorus says, “I’m desperate for you.” Searching the music libraries of CCLI, there are at least 50 songs with the word “desperate” in the title. ...read more

    Different Responses Towards The Filling Of The Holy Spirit Series

    Contributed by Vincent Harry Anobling on Sep 5, 2011
     | 2,699 views

    The miracle happened during the Pentecost resulted to different responses. How was it? I believe it is because that human as we are we tend to believe and doubt of thing supernaturally done in our sight. That's the outcome of the fallen nature.

    ACTS 2: 5 – 13 THE DIFFERENT RESPONSES OF THE SPIRIT’S FILLING A. Towards the unbeliever: 1. They were alarmed and were confounded. v. 6 Bec. They heard them speak their language. 2.
