All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines. Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. For we were all baptized be one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many. Now if the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” it would not for that reason…

Meeting With God
“I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me? “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me, you can do nothing. …

Through Obedience, God Works Through You
Let him who boasts boast in the Lord. 1 Corinthians 1:31 God will accomplish through us what He has purposed us to do when we obey God. When we do not obey God, we will miss out on the most exciting experience of our life. We have to allow God to work through us, so He can accomplish His purpose. Have you allowed God to use you through your obedience? Have you been blessed by God? We will be blessed when God does a special, God – sized work through you. Let’s look at Moses. Moses obeyed God and God accomplished what His purpose. Read Exodus 7:1-6. Moses experienced…

What Is Happening While We Are Praying
The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man’s spirit within him? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what Hod has freely given us. 1 Corinthians 2:10-12 Have you ever pray for one thing and got another? God has more for us then what we would even ask for or think of. In Ephesians 3:20-21, Paul said, “ Now to him who is able to…

Knowing Where God Is Working
My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working. . . I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does. For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does. John 5:17, 19-20 Have you ever noticed God is at work and did not immediately identify it as God’s work? We add confusion to what God is inviting us to. We think we need to stop and pray over it asking for more clarification, when in reality, God is…

God Invites You To Join Him
“My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working. . . . I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does. For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does. John 5:17, 19-20 Do you enjoy and love reading the bible and finding nuggets and “ah -uh” moments? Do you enjoy learning who God is? The Bible reveals that God has been and is involved in the world. He has never been absent from it or what is…

Jesus’ Father
But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.” This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God. John 5:17- 18 Have you ever made such a bold statement in a culture that wont agree with you, and yet you speak bible truth? This is what Jesus did. He spoke truth and stated a statement that the the higher ups didn’t understand or like. Christ was being accused fo breaking the Sabbath day by healing a man and then…
