"Stuff" and weirdness: obstacles to Spiritual life

4/24/2016

1 Comment

 
How to get rid of "stuff" that holds you back. Pastor Dwayne showed us the way to freedom in the Holy Spirit if we deal with those unwanted "stuff" in our lives.
It was an encouraging meeting. Johan and Matt lead the worship.
​Afterwards the ladies provided a luncheon and we had lots of fellowship over the meal.

Acts 2:17-18   17 "'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. 18 Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. NIV    
Galatians 3:26-29   26 You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, 27 for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. NIV    
Galatians 4:1-7 NIV    1 What I am saying is that as long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a slave, although he owns the whole estate. 2 He is subject to guardians and trustees until the time set by his father. 3 So also, when we were children, we were in slavery under the basic principles of the world. 4 But when the time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under law, 5 to redeem those under law, that we might receive the full rights of sons. 6 Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, "Abba, Father." 7 So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has made you also an heir.  
John 17:16-23   16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of it. 17 Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth. 18 As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world. 19 For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly sanctified. 20 "My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one: 23 I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. NIV    
Hebrews 4:16 Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
Hebrews 10:19 Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus,  
1 John 3:1 How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. NIV

During worship, Eleanor read her poem, "Hear the Heartbeat of Jesus".  Pastor Dwayne encourage us to become God's partners when we live by the Holy Spirit.
Next week Sunday, we will have a lunch as a fundraiser for the women's conference in August. Come and enjoy the day with us.

1 John 4:9 God has shown his love by sending his only Son into the world that we could have life through him.    
Isaiah 62:11-12   11 The LORD has made proclamation to the ends of the earth: "Say to the Daughter of Zion, 'See, your Savior comes! See, his reward is with him, and his recompense accompanies him.'" 12 They will be called the Holy People, the Redeemed of the LORD; and you will be called Sought After, the City No Longer Deserted. NIV    
Acts 2:17-21   17 "'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. 18 Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. 19 I will show wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke. 20 The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord. 21 And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.' 
Genesis 1:28 God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground." NIV    
Genesis 2:19 Now the LORD God had formed out of the ground all the beasts of the field and all the birds of the air. He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name. NIV    
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! NIV  
Romans 4:17..., even God, who gives life to the dead and calls into being that which does not exist.

Prophesy from Joel about the Spirit

4/10/2016

The Alpha course on Sunday nights has come to completion. It was very insightful and we hope to run again another season. Today we learned about the Holy Spirit leading us to prophesy God's truth that we can give the Good News to the people around us.
Debra gave feedback from Daniel and Jalene in Israel.

Acts 2:17-21   17 "'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people.

2 Timothy 2:20-21   20 In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for noble purposes and some for ignoble. 21 If a man cleanses himself from the latter, he will be an instrument for noble purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work. NIV    
Ephesians 6:12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. NIV

Value of the Holy Spirit

4/3/2016

Before the Holy Spirit came to be with us always, the Jews had a total different experience of God's presence.  We didn't experience the huge change God made and might find it difficult to understand the impact.  (You'll have to listen if you want to know what an arc welder is doing in my pictures!)  
​Last week was the successful Easter program and meal that we hosted for the wider community of Keremeos. Some photos were posted to the facebook page.

John 12:31 Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out. NIV    
Colossians 2:15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross. NIV    
Exodus 25:8 "Then have them make a sanctuary for me, and I will dwell among them. NIV    
Hebrews 9:7 But only the high priest entered the inner room, and that only once a year, and never without blood, which he offered for himself and for the sins the people had committed in ignorance.
Hebrews 10:19-22 NIV    19 Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body, 21 and since we have a great priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water.  
Mark 15:38 The curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. NIV    
Revelation 21:16 The city was laid out like a square, as long as it was wide. He measured the city with the rod and found it to be 12,000 stadia in length, and as wide and high as it is long. NIV    
Hebrews 9:24-26   24 For Christ did not enter a man-made sanctuary that was only a copy of the true one; he entered heaven itself, now to appear for us in God's presence. 25 Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, the way the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood that is not his own. 26 Then Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But now he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself.
John 15:15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.
John 14:16, 26 NIV    16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever
26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.
