    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 1, 2022
     | 1,181 views

    Some of you may remember a young lady by the name of Tracy Lyperd, who was a beauty queen in VA a few years ago.

    She was all smiles as she wore her crown. But when we read of her in the newspaper again, she no longer had a smile on her face because she was in some serious trouble with the law. Her boy friend had dumped her and married another woman. She drove 250 miles to seek revenge. She took along a ...read more

    Relying On The Work Of The Spirit

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 2,112 views

    When we bear witness to the saving power of Christ, we must rely on the Spirit to empower our efforts.

    Jesus had told them to wait—His first disciples, I mean. He had given them important work to do—the most important work of all, actually—but He had told them not to attempt it just yet. No. They were to wait. “Don’t give,” He said, “until you have received. Nothing can be done by you until ...read more

    If I were to ask you:

    • “Do you believe in God?” you would probably say, “Yes, of course.” • And if I were to ask, “Do you know God?” you might say, “Yes, and I wish I knew Him better.” • But if I were to ask, “Do you have a deep abiding peace?” I suspect that some of you would reply, “No, I don’t.” Why would I ...read more

    Today we want to look at another fruit of the Spirit that God wants to produce in our life.

    We have broken down these nine fruits of the Spirit into three groups: INWARD, OUTWARD, and GOD-WARD. 1) INWARD FRUITS consist of love, joy, and peace 2) OUTWARD FRUITS consist of longsuffering, gentleness, and goodness. 3) GOD-WARD FRUITS consist of faith, meekness, and temperance.

    Before Jesus left this earth after his resurrection, he left us in the care of the Holy Spirit

    Easter is over, but Jesus has not yet ascended to be with God. But the disciples know that He will be leaving them soon; He had told them that and they were afraid. He had been their teacher and guide; now he would not be there to tell them what to do. And just as happened after the crucifixion, ...read more

    We as the body of Christ are to be spirit dominated not flesh dominated.

    For sometime now the Lord as been helping me to understand that we need to live in the spirit and not in the flesh, unfortunately the body of Christ here on earth live mostly in the flesh and this is why we are not seeing enough of miracles in our lives. God in his faithfulness will often show up ...read more

    John speaks of the three-fold witness of the Holy Spirit.

    The Bible says the child of God has a "know-so" salvation. We can know beyond a shadow of a doubt that we are a child of God. John speaks about the witness of the Holy Spirit, who assures God's children they belong to Him. First of all, the Holy Spirit bears witness: 1. To The Son - vs. 6-7 "But ...read more

    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

    In the brief record of Luke made about the Holy Spirit’s activities in the Antioch church we find out about the power of the Holy Spirit.

    One of the most fascinating stories in the Bible is Ezekiel’s account of the valley of dry bones (Ezekiel 37:1-14). Ezekiel says the hand of the Lord is upon him and the Lord sets Ezekiel in a valley of dry bones. The Lord told Ezekiel to preach to the dry bones and tell them God says, “I will ...read more

     | 2,191 views

    Today, we consider holy warfare. For this I will direct you to a famous story that William Booth recounts, and is commonly referred to as “What will you do?”

    “You must fight devils, lies, fleshly indulgences, hardships, disappointments, and everything that sets itself up against God, or that is apposed to the living of a holy life, or which threatens the damnation of man. At all risks and consequences, you must fight for God and the salvation of souls.” ...read more

    “If borne on a burning seraph’s wings I could rise to the Heaven of Heavens, and, like it’s holy inhabitants be allowed to enter the holy of holies where Jehovah especially manifests his glory; and if, prostrate before that Throne, with all reverence I should ask the question: “What is the first ...read more
