    The Spirit does not come upon us only for special events. The Spirit is meant to be a part of our daily lives. He enables us to be instruments of God's love and grace.

    Love: A Fruit Of The Spirit Series

    Contributed by Patrick Nix on Jul 9, 2010
     | 3,643 views

    The battle that every Christian fights is not won or lost by whether we get more of God (we’ve already got all He’s going to give: 100%), the real issue is whether or not God will get more of us!

    The Bible is clear: if you are Christian, then you have the Holy Spirit living inside of you… buried below layers of body and soul (Romans 8:9-11). He’ll always be there – never leaving or forsaking you (Hebrews 13:5). In fact, the Apostle Paul even sarcastically reminds a church that has ...read more

The Bible says that there is great joy in salvation (possessing the Spirit). Knowing our sins are forgiven and having assurance of future rest brings a joy that the ...read more

    Loosed from worries and fears, at rest in troubled times, calm in the worst of circumstances, cleared from all condemnation… Tragically, this doesn’t sound like what I call normal – what about you?

    In the last 5,500 years our world has only seen 292 years of peace. Over 14,000 wars have caused nearly 4 billion deaths.

    Faith is not something we can muster up or dig down deep to find. It is the fruit of God in the life of His surrendered child. In God, this is called foreknowledge. In us, it is the assurance of His foreknowledge. In Him, this is omniscience. For the

    Faith can be the difficult to find when you need it most. It is in the darkness of temptation and in the lonely, sinful distance we need its light most.
