SPIRITUALITY AND FAITH
However, once you become a true follower of Jesus, your focus on use of your time, money and talents should follow God’s plan to expand His Kingdom. Jesus says in Matt. 6:20-21“Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in or steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” While you can’t take natural material things into the spiritual world…you can give and do things that produce eternal rewards. We must keep our eyes and ears focused on God’s heart and heavenly things!

The Holy Spirit is God in action in our lives today! What we read in the book of Acts it is the recorded beginning of how the Holy Spirit would flow Jesus’ followers on earth from that day forward. Jesus, when describing His own miracle-working power by the Holy Spirit, told us in John 14:12 “I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing; He will do even greater things than these.” Its why Paul prayed in Eph. 1:18-20, “That the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know His incomparably great power for us who believe.” So, get
a focus on Heaven, Holiness, and Supernatural Power! You don’t have to wait until heaven to start living with that eternal perspective. You can start right now.

“Be filled with the Spirit!” is Paul’s instruction in Ephesians 5:18. It is popular to talk about being “Purpose-driven” ...but we must never lose sight of the fact that the New Testament pattern is to be “Spirit-driven.” The Holy Spirit is the motivator and motivating power that makes the dynamic difference in our lives and daily purpose! The New Testament shows that when God is reverenced and the Holy Spirit honored, we can live a Life in the Supernatural Gospel with Supernatural results. Further…

This is the day and now is the time. when we all should respond to the leading of the Holy Spirit with acts of obedience. The Holy Spirit is the producer of all things visible and invisible. All things exist by the Holy Spirit. To Him, nothing is more natural than the supernatural. The Holy Spirit wants to bring more of Heaven on Earth in our midst and is able and ready to: heal, save, and perform signs and wonders. Let’s begin speaking and expecting what we believe we will be receiving. When you move it allows God to move. When you give ... it allows God to multiply and bring blessings. He wants to use you and flow through you in more ways than you can imagine. Our faith is
