Fruits Of The Holy Spirit

Contributed by Norman Bernad on Jul 20, 2023

When we bent over a plant to pick its fruit, we didn’t expect apples or oranges or kiwi to be attached to the plant. We knew that strawberry plants always bear strawberries.

Fruit Of The Holy Spirit

Contributed by Lucy Paynter on Oct 21, 2023

In Galatians 5:22–23, Paul shifts to happier thoughts, saying, “But the fruit of the Spirit is …” In what follows, he gives nine characteristics of the Holy Spirit’s work in the life of a born-again believer.

Unlike the word works (of the flesh), fruit is singular, indicating that the nine characteristics are part of a unified whole and are not separable. In other words, a believer doesn’t have some and not others, though their relative strength may vary. Love, by which Paul means the love of God ...read more

Anointing Of The Holy Spirit Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Vivek Gundimi on Sep 4, 2023

"What is the anointing of the Spirit of God? What does it mean to be anointed?" Is it necessary to be anointed by the Spirit of God in the Post Modern Culture such as today?

I want to trace back briefly into history of the practise of anointing and then come to its relevance for us today. The origin of ‘anointing’ was from a practice of shepherds. Lice and other insects would often get into the wool of sheep, and when they got near the sheep's head, they could ...read more

The Operations Of The Holy Spirit Series

Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Apr 3, 2023

It is a continual process. Being filled with the Spirit happens as you continually choose to live under his influence daily.

“Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit” (Ephesians 5:18). To conclude about the Holy Spirit in our lives, I like to remind us of the central point of this topic. That point is the “infilling of the Spirit.” You can know all the doctrines of the ...read more

The Operations Of The Holy Spirit Series

Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Apr 3, 2023

Whenever the Holy Spirit is given permission to work, the result is peace, wholeness, harmony, and unity, the supernatural becomes normal, and the blessing of God follows us.

For our God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints (1 Cor.14:33) Why are there so much church split, in-house fighting, competitions, division, chaos, anger, and bitterness among the Saints of God? Why is it that the sick and diseased are not healed, the ...read more

The Holy Name Of Jesus Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 1, 2022

The name of God and his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, is so often abused in our culture, that we must in this new year treat that Name with respect and honor.

On January 1, Moses tells the people how Aaron and his following high priests should bless them. The strange phrase, “so shall they place my name upon the people of Israel” is part of the direction. In Hebrew, the word “name” (hashem) stands for the person and the person’s power and authority. The ...read more
