the holy spirit

Hi there! I like to think of Paul's faith in the Letters to the Churches, as reflective of the growing faith the Churches have in the Lord. It is not that we come to faith and hold fast to the Lord, and that is all; rather, we come to faith and a bond is formed between His faith and ours. This...

Hi there, So I've been thinking about my relationship to the Holy Spirit, for some time and I have sort of had a revelation. The revelation is that God has given me a gift, based on strengths he has developed me. Those strengths are that I "resonate" (like empathy but more general) and have...

Hi there, So just a simple progression: Jesus destroyed the "sin", but the Holy Spirit destroys the "guilt". In other words, Jesus makes our spirit free, but the Holy Spirit makes our spirit strong. We may not be ready to be obedient to God, but the Holy Spirit ensures that our strength is...

Hi there, I suppose you can imagine many prizes, at the Great White Throne Judgment (Revelation). The Lord sort of opened up my mind, to what they would be. There would be a prize "for the best interpretation of scripture", "most lives lead to the Lord", "most people preached to", "most...

Hi there, So I wanted to focus on something that I didn't actually think I would encounter as a believer. For a long time, I thought the problem with my faith, must be that I backslid; which constantly seemed to drag me back into doubt. Then I realised I was trying to "do faith" on my own, too...

Hi there! So yes, praise God! I was struggling with the Dragon and I realised "the attack on my faith cannot be stronger, than the Holy Spirit's presence in me is simple to trust" - I know, I know "greater is He that is within me, than he that it is in the world" (letters, from memory), but by...

Hi there, So this is what I would call a clinical diagnosis of backsliding: you had faith, but then a dart of the enemy got through your armor and now you are doing nothing about it. Does that sound about right? The point is that the faith, is simple; it is not the Spirit that separates us...

Hi there, So I get that "turning the other cheek" is scripture. But there's nothing in scripture that says you can't ask for turning the other cheek to end. Revelation says the anti-christ goes into perdition, meaning the whole world will be tempted to just keep sinning - as Jesus said "he that...

Hi there! So here is something interesting, how can we be ready to receive the Holy Spirit, from the perspective of the Return of the Lord? The Return of the Lord will herald many things, but most of all, it will herald a Revelation of how to relate to the Holy Spirit. We will learn, how to...

Hi there, So I struggled with sin, for a long time, when it came to desire and it seemed like the Devil always knew how to break down my defences, again and again. Then I started to say "ok, I'm tempted, but even though I am tempted I am going to call the sin out". The Bible says "if we confess...

Hi there, So this is a thread of praise and worship of God, but a special mention of the work of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit has a stronger faith than any of us. I used to think "I need to fix my Christianity" but in reality I needed to trust the Holy Spirit to do with my faith, what I...

Hi there, Just another morsel of food for the newbies to focus on: its ok to like being innocent, but at some point, you have to want to be mature (selah) Paul in the letters talks about people being unable to eat solid food, because they are still babes in faith (Hebrew 5:13) Paul does not...

Hi there, So there is a constant repentance in Heaven, over the need to praise God more - of accepting that we have not praised Him enough. The problem on Earth is, we get discouraged easily and start to dismiss our faith lightly (I know I have). This should not be the case. The power of God...

Hi there, So this thought is just going around and around in my head: the Holy Spirit will teach a greater degree than Jesus. Jesus essentially taught the "fear of God": repentance, righteous judgment, atonement - we were expected to understand that our fear of God should in fact be a...

Hi there, So I am really frustrated and I think its to do with sin. I get that the Holy Spirit gives us a desire to be godly and its wise to wait for the opportunity to be godly, as the opportunity arises. I get that being ready for this, means repenting of whatever comes to mind (as the spirit...

Hi there! So you are probably dying to know what "sharing a root" is, basically the Devil criticises you for having this. If you rebuke him on it, then you are free to serve the Holy Spirit meaningfully, as long as you like. You share a root, with the Holy Spirit, if the object of your...

Hi there, So a simple thought struck me, while thinking over what is to come and why (praise to the Holy Spirit!) and I realised: everything I ask the Lord to do, I ask Him to do openly, in declaration of love to me! But what is true love? Is it not to let the One who serves you, serve in...

Hi there, So I had this thought, maybe I should post about the scriptural foundation Christians will have in the end times (and I sort of felt the Holy Spirit say 'I'm not suggesting you do anything else', making it one of those 'freewill' things). There is a scriptural foundation for how...

Hi there, So this is just a brief gripe about the anti-christ: he makes us feel weak. The Holy Spirit on the other hand, makes us feel strong. The false prophet, is like an untamed wind; he just clamours here and there - once you are out of the path of his moving around, there is very little...

Hi there, So I love being introverted, but the Devil tempts me to take it too far. I got to the point where I said "I have to admit it: I'm a psychopath [sorry, God]" So here's a prayer for all the people that are struggling with how they relate to the Devil, all the people who are too...
