Podcasts about god the holy spirit

In this Godcast, Jesus' question pierces the heart and reminds us that “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). And His question then; still applies today! Because His authority has not changed, His Spirit still empowers, and His mission still calls. As His disciples, we are chosen, equipped, and sent to carry His disciple making workmanship forward until our final breath. His authority is firm, His Spirit unstoppable, and His workmanship in us will always bear fruit, amen? I pray you are encouraged!  God's Word:Luke 6:46; Isaiah 29:13; Mark 7:6; 1 Samuel 16:7; Matthew 7:21; Matthew 7:28–29; Hebrews 13:8; Mark 1:34; Mark 2:10-12; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Romans 6:4; Mark 1:40-42; Colossians 1:13-14; Romans 8:1; Mark 10:51–52; John 9:6–7; 2 Corinthians 4:6; Ephesians 4:6; Mark 4:39–41; Philippians 4:7; Mark 2:5–7; Psalm 103:12; John 8; 2 Corinthians 5:18; John 7:7; Philippians 2:9-11; John 6:63; Matthew 7:24; Matthew 24:35; John 12:48; John 17:17; John 12:46-47; Matthew 5-7; 1 John 3; John 14:12; Matthew 3:8; Romans 12:2; 2 Corinthians 10:5; Psalm 51:4; Romans 6:23; Ephesians 2:10; Romans 8:29; Galatians 5:22–23; Colossians 1:10; Isaiah 64:8; Jeremiah 18; 1 Peter 1:7; Philippians 1:6; Galatians 2:20; Hebrews 12:10; John 15:16; Matthew 4:19; Luke 9:23; Mark 4:33–34; Matthew 18:4; Matthew 16:22-23; John 13:3–5; John 17; Luke 9; John 21:15–17; 1 Corinthians 3:6–7; Isaiah 64:8; John 17; Hebrews 11; Colossians 1:29-29; James 1:4; Colossians 1:15; Romans 8:29; Email: walkingtheway3@gmail.com 

“O Israel, can I not do to you as this potter has done to his clay? As the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are you in my hand.” (Jeremiah 18:6 NLT-SE)

“O Israel, can I not do to you as this potter has done to his clay? As the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are you in my hand.” (Jeremiah 18:6 NLT-SE)

Today,as we go through Ephesians chapter 1, we're looking especially at verses 13 and14. But remember back in verse 12, the Apostle Paul as he's writing to thechurch at Ephesus, he spoke to the fact that we who first trusted in Christshould be to the praise of His glory and then he continues in verse 13 to speakhow the Ephesians also trusted in Him. Notice how Paul first trusted in Christ,found salvation, his life was transformed and then he became that greatmissionary out of the church at Antioch that we know about in the book of Acts. Paulis clearly making the point that only by trusting in Christ is the only way ofsalvation. And when did they trust? When did you trust in Christ for your salvation?  It was, “after you heard the word of truth,the gospel of your salvation in whom also having believed you were sealed withthe Holy Spirit of promise who is the guarantee of our inheritance until theredemption of the purchased possession to the praise of His glory”.  Rememberin the first verses of this chapter we read about the blessings from God theFather (vs. 4-6). He blessed us in eternity past before the foundation of theworld, He chose us. He adopted us. He accepted us. And in Him we havesalvation. And He chose us to be what? “To be holy and without blame beforeHim in love”. And that's eternity past.  Inverses 7-12, we have the blessings from God the Son, Jesus Christ. And that'sin history past. Jesus came, as incarnate God to planet earth, died on thecross in our place for our sins, and gave us the salvation that we have. Andthat was the experience of the Ephesian believers there in Ephesus. Now we'relooking at present tense because it is now that the Holy Spirit is the Oneworking in our lives. If you read Acts 19, you definitely will see thatwonderful story there.  Again,looking at the first part of this verse, we find the way of salvation is bytrusting in Christ. Now I don't understand all about predestination, electionand all those things. But I know this, that God also created us with a freewill. And because of that, whosoever will may be saved. And the Lord is notwilling that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. And howdo you get saved? After you hear the gospel of Jesus Christ, the death, burial,and resurrection. 1 Corinthians chapter 15. Then, it is the work and ministryof the Holy Spirit to open our hearts and minds and change our lives as the Wordof God comes into our heart that we trust in Christ. That's how we experienceHis great salvation.  Continueto pray today for us as we travel and for our dear friends and their families. Again,thank you for your prayers! Godbless!

This Godcast takes you straight to the one foundation every disciple must build their life upon— It starts with Jesus, it ends with Jesus, and every breath in between belongs to Him—that's the plain ol' truth! Apart from Jesus, we are dead in sin, enslaved to darkness, and under wrath—but in Him we are reconciled, redeemed, and renewed! If you need encouragement today, then listen! Or, IF you know of someone that needs to hear the truth... THEN have them listen to The Truth about Jesus! What for? Because... at the end of the day, at the end of time, the only Name that matters is Jesus—and it's ALL about Him, in whom every eternal promise finds its “Yes” and “Amen,” now and forever! Amen?    God's Word:John 8:12; Col 1:15-23; Col 1:21; Eph 2:1-5; Titus 3:3; Rom 3:24; 2 Cor 5:17; Luke 9:1-6; 2 Tim 4:1-2; John 1:1; John 1:14; John 14:9; Heb 4:15; 1 Peter 2:24; 1 Cor 15:3-4; Mark 1:14-15; Matt 22:37-40; Acts 1:9; Heb 1:3; Rom 8:34; 2 Cor 5:10; Rev 21:1-4; Matt 3:2; John 3:16; Luke 6:46; John 14:16-17; Matt 28:19-20; John 15:8; Matt 7; John 17:11; Heb 13:8; Matt 1:21; John 1:41; John 1:34; John 3:16; John 1:1; Titus 2:13; Matt 1:23; John 8:58; Ex 3:14; 1 Cor 2:8; Rev 1:8; 4:8; Luke 2:11; Job 19:25; Titus 2:14; John 14:6; John 1:29; John 10:11; John 10:9; John 6:35; John 15:1; John 4:10; John 11:25; 1 Tim 2:5; 1 John 2:1; Rev 19:16; Isa 9:6; 2 Timothy 4:8; Eph 5:23; Eph 2:20; Matt 9:15; Rev 19:7; Rev 22:13; Rev 1:17; John 1:1; Rev 19:13; Rev 3:14; Rev 22:16; John 8:12; Col 1:15; Matt 11:19; Heb 4:14; Heb 12:2; Rom 11:26; 1 Cor 10:4; Heb 6:19; Matt 7; 1 Peter 2:23; Heb 12:2; Matthew 16:15; 2 Cor 13:5; John 21:25; Email: walkingtheway3@gmail.com

HOLY GHOST CONVENTION DAY 4 UNDERSTANDING WHO THE HOLY SPIRIT IS   SCRIPTURES: John 14:16 Luke 24:49 Exodus 16:13 1 Corinthians 6:17 1 John 5:7 Genesis 1:1-2 Romans 8:11 John 3:8 2 Timothy 4:14 Romans 7:11 John 1:1-14 John 15:25 KEY POINTS ABOUT THE HOLY SPIRIT The Holy Spirit is God: As affirmed in 1 John 5:7 and Genesis 1:1-2. The Life of God: The Holy Spirit is the life of God, dwelling in believers (Romans 8:11). God with Us and in Us: The Holy Spirit represents God's presence with and within us. Father's Presence in Children: The Holy Spirit is the Father's presence dwelling in His children (John 3:8). Jesus Unlimited: The Holy Spirit is Jesus' unlimited presence and power (John 1:1-14). SPECIAL QUOTES FROM DR. OKRONIPA: 1. Without a true understanding of the Holy Spirit, it's impossible to walk in the fullness of your divine destiny. A lack of this knowledge is the main reason many Christians fail to access the blessings God has prepared for them. 2. God desires to bring you into a place where you become all He envisioned. To Him, your transformation matters far more than your possessions. Sadly, many believers attend church primarily focused on what they can get, not on who they are becoming. 3. The Holy Spirit embodies the very essence of God's life. Without His presence, there is no divine vitality. That's why, at the moment of our new birth, He comes to dwell in us, so we may share in the reality of God's life. 4. The Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and flows into all who have been sanctified through faith, raising a new kind of people who are the integration of divinity and humanity, empowered to carry out heaven's mandate and accomplish God's will on earth. CONCLUSION The Holy Spirit is a vital part of the Godhead, representing God's life, presence, and power. Understanding His nature and role is essential for believers to experience His fullness and effectiveness in their lives.

In this message, Francis Chan challenges the way we approach worship, truth, and the Holy Spirit. Are we just hearing the Word, or are we responding to it? Are we pursuing knowledge, or a deeper intimacy with God? True worship goes beyond singing and learning—it's a life-changing response to God's presence.
