    Your Spiritual Gift

    Play Episode Listen Later Apr 25, 2025 30:37


    What do you think of when you hear the phrase "spiritual gift"? For many people it stirs up a feeling that it is something that they did not receive, when in fact, this passage tells us that all believers have been given spiritual gift by The Lord. But how can I know what my gift is would be the next obvious question. I believe that all spiritual gifts have been given to bring unity in the body of Christ which is the church and I also believe that the emphasis in this passage is not on the gift itself but on your service within in body of Christ. So perhaps you could fine a place of service and you might just realize that your church actually needs you and you need your church.

    According to this passage God is able to do exceeding abundantly more than we can imagine. This doxology is perhaps one of the greatest in the Bible. This verse is a praise to God ascribing all glory to Him and is very much an encouragement to believers everywhere . We can not begin to grasp what God is able to do for us.

    Title: " Living to Glorify God"Ephesians 3:14-17Does your life as a believer actually glorify God. Well, in this passage Paul is praying that we as believers might understand that it is possible to live in the reality that our life should and can glorify God. There are some things we need to concern ourselves with first. There are 4 things for us to understand first before we can live in the reality of verses 20 and 21.

    Where Does God Dwell?

    In this passage Paul is showing that the individual believer is a person in whom God the Holy Spirit dwells. This is one truth that proves that at our new birth all things become new (2 Cor. 5:17). Our bodies are the temple of God (2 Cor. 6:16). Just as God dwelt by His Holy Spirit in the temple in the Old Testament, so now He dwells in us. Very important when you consider that Paul is talking about Jews and Gentiles being unified together in Christ at salvation.

    Title: " Jesus is our Peace"Ephesians 2:11-22Once again in this passage we see what should be clear evidence of the change brought about from our regeneration. Since we have a new heart there should be unity in the church as Paul so clearly lays out for the new believers in Ephesus . There was a long standing hatred between Jews and Gentiles and Paul Encourages the believers to get over the hatred because Jews and Gentiles are both changed in Christ .

    We are a New Creation

    This passage confirms for us that we were not saved by works, but by the grace of God. But, this verse also says we were saved for good works. Basically, this verse affirms the basic truth that regeneration really does change us. A great cross reference to this verse is 2 Corinthians 5:17 which also says that regeneration brings about all things new. So ask yourself, how did I change when I was saved? How you answer that might indicate you spiritual condition.

    Our Condition Before Salvation

    Play Episode Listen Later Feb 28, 2025 30:49


    Our condition before salvation is our total inability to respond to God. We are dead in our sin, spiritually dead and we are not able to change that condition. We have eyes that can't see and ears that can not hear so God who is rich in mercy gives us a new heart . Now we have spiritual eyes to see and spiritual ears to hear and a new heart to respond to God.

    Have you ever noticed that sometimes you can read a verse of scripture and it seems that God turns on a light so that you see it and its meaning for the first time.

In other words, Paul prays that they might understand God's word.

    Title: "Our Best Life is not now"Ephesians 1:11-14This is a wonderful passage of scripture that assures us that our best life is still to come. Contrary to some who would teach that our best life is right now . For the believer in the Lord Jesus Christ our best life is when we are in heaven with our savior Jesus and not now in a world filled with evil and violence. Remember that we were saved out of this world whose ruler is satan himself. Our citizenship is in heaven which will be the last phase of our salvation.

    Do You Think God Loves You?

    Play Episode Listen Later Jan 31, 2025 32:09


    This passage is a message of love for the believer. God so loved us that He predestined us to be conformed to His image in love. Just think God has chosen us , in Christ, before the world was even created and did this for His own glory. After all the Bible says, God sits in the heavens and He does whatever He wishes.

    A very important exercise in your daily routine today, is try describing God? Write down on a piece of paper words that you would use in describing God. In this passage this is exactly what the apostle Paul is doing for the young believers in Ephesus. He begins at the same place we should probably begin and that is with the absolute sovereignty of God. Explaining to them we are blessed with all heavenly blessings in Christ Jesus because He chose us before the foundations of the world to have them.

    Title: "An Explosion Of Glory"Luke 2 :6-15Have you ever thought about the star in the story of Christ birth that is known as the Christmas story?Or the glory that the shepherds saw around them on the night of Jesus' birth? I believe that these 2 passages will probably shed some insight into the subject. The magi saw His Star in the east was none other than the very explosion of glory around the shepherds on the night of our dear saviors birth. Yes, the star was the glory of God shining in full majesty and it was not a real planet or star in the sky. Something to really think about-don't you think??

For in reading His Word we fine encouragement for life, and strength for our troubled times or difficult times where we simply don't know which way to turn.This passage also gives us 4 simple and practical steps that we can take to get us on the right path to developing a consistent time with our Lord Jesus Christ.

    God's Word in Your Life

    Do you have as a priority of your life to read God's Word everyday ? I'm talking about a personal time , or a quiet time where you spend time reading God's Word and praying. A time that could be described as a devotional time or even a time of worship just between you and The Lord Jesus Christ. In this message the emphasis is on actually reading God's Word to see what it says . Not reading a paragraph or something written talking about what God's Word says but actually reading His Word for yourself. After all, it really is God's Word. When the Bible speaks, God speaks, so try reading it every day.

    Do I Need A Quiet Time?

    Play Episode Listen Later Nov 28, 2024 35:23


    First I need to remind you that a quiet time is simply a personal time you set aside to spend time with The Lord. It usually involves prayer and bible reading. This passage gives us a great example in the life of Daniel. He had a certain place, time and position for his time with God 3 times a day -every day. I not suggesting 3 times a day but for sure one time a day that you set aside as your priority for the day to spend time with Your lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

    Daniel's Quiet Time with God

    This is one of the great foundational truths of the Christian life-that we have our own personal time alone with God. What better person to look at than Daniel himself. In fact, we can learn several things by reading passages in Daniel's book where he prays . He had a regular place for his prayer times as well as certain times where he set aside the time and a position which was on his knees. We can learn by studying people like Daniel. Do you have a personal quiet time with God every day?

    Is Jesus Really God?

    Play Episode Listen Later Oct 18, 2024 31:58


    John in his gospel presents several convincing proofs that Jesus is in fact, God. Three of these proofs are found in the first 5 verses of his gospel . He tells us that Jesus is eternal and already existed before the beginning of all creation. John also presents Him as the creator of all things, which means that Jesus is separated from His creation. And then John presents Jesus as Life, by simply saying that in Him was life and the life is the light of man. Does this sound like the same Jesus you pray to? Our Christian life demands that we have a real and biblical view of who Jesus really is. Jesus is God.

The reason that is true is because there is a gap in the time line - between v. 26 - v. 27-.-And the name of that period of time is the church age. In other words, we are living in the gap found in Daniel 9- 26 -27. When the church age is finished the last week or 7 years - Tribulation Period- will begin.
