KNOWING THE HOLY SPIRIT 4-28-19 VIDEO DEEP THOUGHTS ON FIRE

Receive the Holy Spirit He will come upon you. You will receive power. The Holy Spirit is moving upon us to demonstrate His power, His love, His boldness. The Spirit is in us but He will also move upon us. We must ask. We can speak with wisdom and authority. It is coming in a manifestation of fire. The fire the Holy Spirit. Those in the upper room were to receive the same. They were to be bold, courageous, without fear. Baptism of fire.

A soldier arrives at the battle– with the new employee arrives at work–we have all the information about what’s going to happen but no experience. It’s the hands on experience that takes us from heaven knowledge to the experience so it is with the baptism of fire and the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit flows from us like rivers of living water. The Holy Spirit was breathed into them by Jesus when they were hiding in fear. They were commissioned to forgive sin. The Holy Spirit is the gift promise by the Father. The body can’t function without him. As you read the book of Acts you will see the Apostles were filled with the person (the gift from the Father). They transferred this Gift to others and went with the Holy Spirit to travel and preach the Gospel. They like Jesus were fully controlled by the Holy Spirit. This is how the church operates.

 

Luke 1:35 The angel answered, The Holy Spirit will come upon you, the power of the Highest hover over you; Therefore, the child you bring to birth will be called Holy, Son of God. MSG

OVERSHADOW- to cast a shade upon, to envelope in a haze of brilliancy; to invest with influence: From a vaporous cloud that casts a shadow, the word is transferred to a shining cloud surrounding and enveloping persons with brightness: idea of a cloud as symbolizing the immediate presence and power of God.

 

LUKE 3:21-22 One day Jesus came to be baptized along with all the others. As he was consumed with the spirit of prayer, the heavenly realm ripped open above him and the Holy Spirit descended from heaven in the visible, tangible form of a dove and landed on him. Then God’s audible voice was heard, saying, “My Son, you are my beloved one. Through you I am fulfilled. ‘ TPT

 

Acts 10:38 Then Jesus arrived from Nazareth, anointed by God with the Holy Spirit, ready for action. He went through the country helping people and healing everyone who was beaten down by the Devil. He was able to do all this because God was with him. MSG

Acts 2:3  Then all at once a pillar of fire appeared before their eyes. It separated into tongues of fire that engulfed each one of them.

⁴ They were all filled and equipped with the Holy Spirit and were inspired to speak in tongues—empowered by the Spirit to speak in languages they had never learned! TPT ▼▼▼

This was the pillar of fire that led Israel from bondage into the promised land. The same pillar of fire manifested here to initiate a new beginning from dead religious structures into the powerful life of the Spirit. Each believer received an overpowering flame of fire, signified by the shaft of light that engulfed them. It was as though each one received his own personal pillar of fire that would empower him and lead him throughout his life.

Acts 2:3 And there appeared to them tongues resembling fire, which were separated and distributed and which settled on each one of them.

4 And they were all filled (diffused throughout their souls) with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other (different, foreign) languages (tongues), as the Spirit kept giving them clear and loud expression [in each tongue in appropriate words].   AMP

Luke 3:15 The interest of the people by now was building. They were all beginning to wonder, “Could this John be the Messiah?”

16 But John intervened: “I’m baptizing you here in the river. The main character in this drama, to whom I’m a mere stagehand, will ignite the kingdom life, a fire, the Holy Spirit within you, changing you from the inside out.

17 He’s going to clean house — make a clean sweep of your lives. He’ll place everything true in its proper place before God; everything false he’ll put out with the trash to be burned.”

18 There was a lot more of this — words that gave strength to the people, words that put heart in them. The Message!   MSG

Acts 15:8 And God, who can’t be fooled by any pretense on our part but always knows a person’s thoughts, gave them the Holy Spirit exactly as he gave him to us.

John 7:38  Believe in me so that rivers of living water will burst out from within you, flowing from your innermost being, just like the Scripture says!”

³⁹ Jesus was prophesying about the Holy Spirit that believers were being prepared to receive. But the Holy Spirit had not yet been poured out upon them, because Jesus had not yet been unveiled in his full splendor. TPT

 

John 14:26 But the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, Standby), the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in My name [in My place, to represent Me and act on My behalf], He will teach you all things.

AMP

 

John 20:21 Jesus repeated his greeting: “Peace to you. Just as the Father sent me, I send you.”

22 Then he took a deep breath and breathed into them. “Receive the Holy Spirit,” he said.

23 “If you forgive someone’s sins, they’re gone for good. If you don’t forgive sins, what are you going to do with them?” MSG

▼▼▼

John 20:21 Jesus repeated his greeting, “Peace to you!” And he told them, “Just as the Father has sent me, I’m now sending you.”

²² Then, taking a deep breath, he blew on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit.

Acts 1:5  For John baptized you in water, but in a few days from now you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit!”

⁶ Every time they were gathered together, they asked Jesus, “Lord, is it the time now for you to free Israel and restore our kingdom?”

⁷ He answered, “The Father is the one who sets the fixed dates and the times of their fulfillment. You are not permitted to know the timing of all that he has prepared by his own authority.

⁸ But I promise you this—the Holy Spirit will come upon you and you will be filled with power. And you will be my messengersto Jerusalem, throughout Judea, the distant provinces—even to the remotest places on earth!” TPT

 

Acts 2:33 “Then God exalted him to his right hand upon the throne of highest honor. And the Father gave him the authority to send the promised Holy Spirit, which is being poured out upon us today. This is what you’re seeing and hearing!   TPT SPLASHED

 

Acts 2:39 For the promise [of the Holy Spirit] is to and for you and your children, and to and for all that are far away, [even] to and for as many as the Lord our God invites and bids to come to Himself. AMP

Romans 8:9 But when the Spirit of Christ empowers your life, you are not dominated by the flesh but by the Spirit. And if you are not joined to the Spirit of the Anointed One, you are not of him.

 

Romans 8:26  And in a similar way, the Holy Spirit takes hold of us in our human frailty to empower us in our weakness. For example, at times we don’t even know how to pray, or know the best things to ask for. But the Holy Spirit rises up within us to super-intercede on our behalf, pleading to God with emotional sighs too deep for words.

²⁷ God, the searcher of the heart, knows fully our longings, yet he also understands the desires of the Spirit, because the Holy Spirit passionately pleads before God for us, his holy ones, in perfect harmony with God’s plan and our destiny. TPT

 

Rom 15:19 [Even as my preaching has been accompanied] with the power of signs and wonders, [and all of it] by the power of the Holy Spirit.

AMP

▼▼▼

Romans 15:19 And I will not be presumptuous to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me. For many non-Jewish people are coming into faith’s obedience by the power of the Spirit of God, which is displayed through mighty signs and amazing wonders, both in word and deed. Starting from Jerusalem I went from place to place as far as the distant Roman province of Illyricum, fully preaching the wonderful message of Christ. TPT

 

Acts 7:55 But Stephen, overtaken with great faith, was full of the Holy Spirit. He fixed his gaze into the heavenly realm and saw the glory and splendor of God—and Jesus, who stood up at the right hand of God. TPT

So then today let’s stand a receive a fresh out pour from the gift, the Holy Spirit to move forward in kingdom and in our destinies.

 

SACRIFICE 4-19-19 VIDEO GOOD FRIDAY SKIT GUYS PT2

Sacrifice– to offer up something, to give up something for a better cause. To declare something as holy to God. The giving up of something out of a desire to draw closer to someone. Sacrifice started early in mankind‘s history. From the cross Jesus brought this sacrifice to the Father.

Gen 4:4 And Abel brought of the firstborn of his flock and of the fat portions. And the Lord had respect and regard for Abel and for his offering, AMP

 

Hebrews 11:4  Faith moved Abel to choose a more acceptable sacrifice to offer God than his brother Cain, and God declared him righteous because of his offering of faith. By his faith, Abel still speaks instruction to us today, even though he is long dead. TPT

▼▼▼

Heb 11:4 [Prompted, actuated] by faith Abel brought God a better and more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, because of which it was testified of him that he was righteous [that he was upright and in right standing with God], and God bore witness by accepting and acknowledging his gifts. And though he died, yet [through the incident] he is still speaking. AMP

 

Heb 12:24 And to Jesus, the Mediator (Go-between, Agent) of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood which speaks [of mercy], a better and nobler and more gracious message than the blood of Abel [which cried out for vengeance]. AMP

▼▼▼

Hebrews 12:24  And we have come to Jesus who established a new covenant with his blood sprinkled upon the mercy seat; blood that continues to speak from heaven, “forgiveness,” a better message than Abel’s blood that cries from the earth, “justice. TPT

 

1 John 4:10 This is the kind of love we are talking about — not that we once upon a time loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to clear away our sins and the damage they’ve done to our relationship with God. MSG

Romans 5:7  Now, who of us would dare to die for the sake of a wicked person? We can all understand if someone was willing to die for a truly noble person.

⁸ But Christ proved God’s passionate love for us by dying in our place while we were still lost and ungodly!

⁹ And there is still much more to say of his unfailing love for us! For through the blood of Jesus we have heard the powerful declaration, “You are now righteous in my sight.” And because of the sacrifice of Jesus, you will never experience the wrath of God. TPT

John 10:14 “I am the Good Shepherd. I know my own sheep and my own sheep know me.

15 In the same way, the Father knows me and I know the Father. I put the sheep before myself, sacrificing myself if necessary. MSG

▼▼▼

John 10:14 “I alone am the Good Shepherd, and I know those whose hearts are mine, for they recognize me and know me,

¹⁵ just as my Father knows my heart and I know my Father’s heart. I am ready to give my life for the sheep. TPT

 

Romans 3:25-Jesus’ God-given destiny was to be the sacrifice to take away sins, and now he is our mercy seat because of his death on the cross. We come to him for mercy, for God has made a provision for us to be forgiven by faith in the sacred blood of Jesus. This is the perfect demonstration of God’s justice, because until now, he had been so patient—holding back his justice out of his tolerance for us. So he covered over the sins of those who lived prior to Jesus’ sacrifice.

²⁶ And when the season of tolerance came to an end, there was only one possible way for God to give away his righteousness and still be true to both his justice and his mercy—to offer up his own Son. So now, because we stand on the faithfulness of Jesus, God declares us righteous in his eyes! TPT

 

Romans 8:3 For God achieved what the law was unable to accomplish, because the law was limited by the weakness of human nature. Yet God sent us his Son in human form to identify with human weakness. Clothed with humanity, God’s Son gave his body to be the sin-offering so that God could once and for all condemn the guilt and power of sin.

⁴ So now every righteous requirement of the law can be fulfilled through the Anointed One living his life in us. And we are free to live, not according to our flesh, but by the dynamic power of the Holy Spirit. TPT

 

Heb 5:9 Then, having arrived at the full stature of his maturity and having been announced by God as high priest in the order of Melchizedek,

10 he became the source of eternal salvation to all who believingly obey him. MSG   ▼▼▼

Heb 5:9 And, [His completed experience] making Him perfectly [equipped], He became the Author and Source of eternal salvation to all those who give heed and obey Him,

10 Being designated and recognized and saluted by God as High Priest after the order (with the rank) of Melchizedek. AMP

 

Hebrews 7:27 Unlike the former high priests, he is not compelled to offer daily sacrifices. They had to bring a sacrifice first for their own sins, then for the sins of the people, but he finished the sacrificial system, once and for all, when he offered himself.

²⁸ The law appointed flawed men as high priests, but God’s promise, sealed with his oath, which succeeded the law, appoints a perfect Son who is complete forever! TPT

Hebrews 9:24 For the Messiah did not enter into the earthly tabernacle made by men, which was but an echo of the true sanctuary, but he entered into heaven itself to appear before the face of God in our place.

²⁵ Under the old system year after year the high priest entered the most holy sanctuary with blood that was not his own. But the Messiah did not need to repeatedly offer himself year after year,

²⁶ for that would mean he must suffer repeatedly ever since the fall of the world. But now he has appeared at the fulfillment of the ages to abolish sin once and for all by the sacrifice of himself!

²⁷ Every human being is appointed to die once, and then to face God’s judgment.^[

²⁸ But when we die we will be face-to-face with Christ, the One who experienced death once for all to bear the sins of many! And now to those who eagerly await him, he will appear a second time; not to deal with sin, but to bring us the fullness of salvation. TPT

▼

Heb 9:26 if that had been the case, he would have to sacrifice himself repeatedly throughout the course of history. But instead he sacrificed himself once and for all, summing up all the other sacrifices in this sacrifice of himself, the final solution of sin.   MSG

 

Revelation 1:5  and from Jesus Christ the Faithful Witness, the Firstborn from among the dead and the ruling King, who rules over the kings of the earth!

Now to the one who constantly loves us and has loosed us from our sins by his own blood, TPT

 

Gal 1:4 We know the meaning of those words because Jesus Christ rescued us from this evil world we’re in by offering himself as a sacrifice for our sins. God’s plan is that we all experience that rescue.

5 Glory to God forever! Oh, yes! MSG

▼▼▼

Galatians 1:4  I pray over you a release of the blessings of God’s undeserved kindness and total well-being that flows from our Father – God and from the Lord Jesus. He’s the Anointed Messiah who offered himself as the sacrifice for our sins! He has taken us out of this evil world system and set us free through our salvation, just as God desired.

⁵ All the glory will go to God alone, throughout time and eternity. Amen! TPT

 

Hebrews 1:3 The Son is the dazzling radiance of God’s splendor, the exact expression of God’s true nature—his mirror image^. He holds the universe together and expands it by the mighty power of his spoken word. He accomplished for us the complete cleansing of sins, and then took his seat on the highest throne at the right hand of the majestic One. TPT

 

Hebrews 10:4 For what power does the blood of bulls and goats have to remove sin’s guilt?

⁵ So when Jesus the Messiah came into the world he said, “Since your ultimate desire was not another animal sacrifice, you have clothed me with a body that I might offer myself instead!
⁶ Multiple burnt offerings and sin-offerings cannot satisfy your justice.
⁷ So I said to you, ‘God—I will be the One to go and do your will, to fulfill all that is written of me in your Word!’ ”

⁸ First he said, “Multiple burnt-offerings and sin-offerings cannot satisfy your justice” (even though the law required them to be offered).

⁹ And then he said, “God, I will be the One to go and do your will.” So by being the sacrifice that removes sin, he abolishes animal sacrifices and replaces that entire system with the new covenant.

¹⁰ By God’s will we have been purified and made holy once and for all through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus, the Messiah!

¹¹ Yet every day priests still serve, ritually offering the same sacrifices again and again—sacrifices that can never take away sin’s guilt.

¹² But when this Priest had offered the one supreme sacrifice for sin for all time he sat down on a throne at the right hand of God, TPT

 

Lev 1:4 And he shall lay [both] his hands upon the head of the burnt offering [transferring symbolically his guilt to the victim], and it shall be an acceptable atonement for him. AMP

 

Jer 33:8 And I will cleanse them from all the guilt and iniquity by which they have sinned against Me, and I will forgive all their guilt and iniquities by which they have sinned and rebelled against Me. AMP

 

Mark 2:5 And when Jesus saw their faith [their confidence in God through Him], He said to the paralyzed man, Son, your sins are forgiven [you] and put away [that is, the penalty is remitted, the sense of guilt removed, and you are made upright and in right standing with God].

6 Now some of the scribes were sitting there, holding a dialogue with themselves as they questioned in their hearts,

7 Why does this Man talk like this? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins [remove guilt , remit the penalty, and bestow righteousness instead] except God alone? AMP

 

1 Cor 6:11 And such some of you were [once]. But you were washed clean (purified by a complete atonement for sin and made free from the guilt of sin), and you were consecrated (set apart, hallowed), and you were justified [pronounced righteous, by trusting] in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the [Holy] Spirit of our God. AMP

1 John 1:9  But if we freely admit our sins when his light uncovers them, he will be faithful to forgive us every time. God is just to forgive us our sins because of Christ, and he will continue to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. TPT

 

Ephesians 1:7  Since we are now joined to Christ, we have been given the treasures of redemption by his blood—the total cancellation of our sins—all because of the cascading riches of his grace. TPT

▼▼▼

Eph 1:7 Because of the sacrifice of the Messiah, his blood poured out on the altar of the Cross, we’re a free people — free of penalties and punishments chalked up by all our misdeeds. And not just barely free, either. Abundantly free! MSG

 

1 John 2:2 When he served as a sacrifice for our sins, he solved the sin problem for good — not only ours, but the whole world’s. MSG

 

Romans 4:25 Jesus was handed over to be crucified for the forgiveness of our sins and was raised back to life to prove that he had made us right with God! TPT

 

John 6:53 Jesus replied to them, “Listen to this eternal truth: Unless you eat the body of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you will not have eternal life. ⁵⁴ Eternal life comes to the one who eats my body and drinks my blood, and I will raise him up in the last day.

⁵⁵ For my body is real food for your spirit and my blood is real drink.

⁵⁶ The one who eats my body and drinks my blood lives in me and I live in him

⁵⁷ The Father of life sent me, and he is my life. In the same way, the one who feeds upon me, I will become his life. TPT   COMMUNION

Romans 1:20  Opposition to truth cannot be excused on the basis of ignorance, because from the creation of the world, the invisible qualities of God’s nature have been made visible, such as his eternal power and transcendence.

FUTURE HOPE 4-12-19 VIDEO HOPE DUBUNKED

We have a choice these days to remain a victim of our past failures worries and fears, or let the Holy Spirit show us to move into our future. The future cannot be stopped for us. No one can be snatched out of God’s hands. In the Bible hope means not only do we desire something good for the future but we expect it to happen. HOPE-comes from a Hebrew word to twist or weave as strands of rope making capable to hold up even under a heavy load. A cord- expectation (like shackles) favorable & confident. David when he was desperate he argued with his own soul about his future. So future hope does it mean to “cross your fingers” but it’s rather to expect great things from God. Abe received the royal-proclamation,” the Aramaic word for “promise.”

 

Hebrews 6:11 But we long to see you passionately advance until the end and you find your hope fulfilled.

¹² So don’t allow your hearts to grow dull or lose your enthusiasm, but follow the example of those who fully received what God has promised because of their strong faith and patient endurance.

¹³ Now when God made a promise to Abraham, since there was no one greater than himself, he swore an oath on his own integrity to keep the promise as sure as God exists!

¹⁴ So he said, “Have no doubt, I promise to bless you over and over and give you a son and multiply you without measure!”

¹⁵ So Abraham waited patiently in faith and succeeded in seeing the promise fulfilled.

¹⁶ It is very common for people to swear an oath by something greater than themselves, for the oath will confirm their statements and end all dispute.

¹⁷ So in the same way, God wanted to end all doubt and confirm it even more forcefully to those who would inherit his promises. His purpose was unchangeable, so God added his vow to the promise.

¹⁸ So it is impossible for God to lie for we know that his promise and his vow will never change! And now we have run into his heart to hide ourselves in his faithfulness. This is where we find his strength and comfort, for he empowers us to seize what has already been established ahead of time—an unshakeable hope! TPT

 

HEB 11:10 His eyes of faith were set on the city with unshakable foundations, whose architect and builder is God himself.

¹¹ Sarah’s faith embraced the miracle power to conceive even though she was barren and was past the age of childbearing, for the authority of her faith rested in the One who made the promise, and she tapped into his faithfulness.

¹² In fact, so many children were subsequently fathered by this aged man of faith—one who was as good as dead, that he now has offspring as innumerable as the sand on the seashore and as the stars in the sky! TPT

 

HEB 11:15  And if their hearts were still remembering what they left behind, they would have found an opportunity to go back.

¹⁶ But they couldn’t turn back for their hearts were fixed on what was far greater, that is, the heavenly realm! TPT

Heb 11:20 [With eyes of] faith Isaac, looking far into the future, invoked blessings upon Jacob and Esau. AMP

HEB 11:22 Faith inspired Joseph and opened his eyes to see into the future, for as he was dying he prophesied about the exodus of Israel out of Egypt, and gave instructions that his bones were to be taken from Egypt with them. TPT

Or “remembering the exodus.” This is amazing, since the exodus had not yet happened, so how could Joseph “remember” it? This is the eye of faith that imparts prophetic vision of the future.

 

Ps 42:5 Why are you cast down, O my inner self? And why should you moan over me and be disquieted within me? Hope in God and wait expectantly for Him, for I shall yet praise Him, my Help and my God.

6 O my God, my life is cast down upon me [and I find the burden more than I can bear]; therefore will I [earnestly] remember You from the land of the Jordan [River] and the [summits of Mount] Hermon, from the little mountain Mizar.

7 [Roaring] deep calls to [roaring] deep at the thunder of Your waterspouts; all Your breakers and Your rolling waves have gone over me.

8 Yet the Lord will command His loving-kindness in the daytime, and in the night His song shall be with me, a prayer to the God of my life. AMP

▼▼▼

Ps 42:5 So then, my soul, why would you be depressed? Why would you sink into despair? Just keep hoping and waiting on God, your Savior. For no matter what, I will still sing with praise, for living before his face is my saving grace!
⁶ Here I am depressed and downcast. Yet I will still remember you as I ponder the place where your glory streams down from the mighty mountaintops, lofty and majestic—the mountains of your awesome presence.
⁷ My deep need calls out to the deep kindness of your love. Your waterfall of weeping sent waves of sorrow over my soul, carrying me away, cascading over me like a thundering cataract.
⁸ Yet all day long God’s promises of love pour over me. Through the night I sing his songs, for my prayer to God has become my life. TPT
