How can I glorify God with my life? If I live within the boundaries of His Word, I will be doing His will and my life will glorify the Lord.

The Christian’s destiny is Heaven, but the divine objective of the Christian is to glorify God. When we keep our focus on Truth - the Word of God, He speaks to us and constrains us, so that we will live to bring glory to Him in every part of our life.

The world hates Jesus, but the Holy Spirit will counter that with words of truth, telling you to worship Jesus Christ. He will speak through the church so that the church can be a witness to the world of who Christ is.

Truth is the source from which the Holy Spirits comes to act in our lives. The Spirit of Truth brings to our memory the things that Jesus taught us at just the moment that we need it. This can bring about change in a believer’s life.

The test of a Holy Spirit filled church is the focus of that Church – are they focused on Christ? With a focus on Christ, the church will experience true unity; while the individuals who have been baptized in the Holy Spirit will live with a new powerful dimension in their lives.

The Holy Spirit is our Comforter, He brings strength to our lives, as He also reveals who Jesus Christ is. He will always uplift and bring everything around to focus back on Jesus and place Him in center. With our focus on Christ, the church and the Christian’s life comes into balance and growth and development can take place.

We need the Holy Spirit in our lives to have discernment, to see what is truth and what is false doctrine. If we meditate on the Word of God, the Holy Spirit will reveal truth to our heart and bring repentance. Lord, give me truth no matter what it does to me for the Scripture says, “…the truth will set you free.”

A person filled with the Holy Spirit will have an effect in the society where he/she lives. If they become who God has made them and planned them to be, those around will receive blessings because of a life lived through the Spirit. Christian you may live in the world, but you don’t have to be part of the world.

The ministry of the Holy Spirit is greatly needed in our times. We can read in the New Testament what Jesus said about the Holy Spirit, who was to come and the truths that He would give. We also see, that sometimes He waited until certain people were not “in the room” before He had the freedom to share these truths.

Unfortunately, the Holy Spirit is pushed aside and has little focus in the modern church. If we open the Scriptures, we find the description of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. All three are an active part of the Trinity. The Holy Spirit is the “power” of the church. He convicts, convinces, and converts the sinner. “It is not by might nor power, but by my Spirit says the Lord.”

In Luke 5 the people’s motive for being with Jesus was to hear a word from Him, and because of this motive, He gave them so much more. If your motivation is a heart that desires Jesus and His Word, He will be set free to give you a word that will prepare you for His next plan for your life. Pastor Jerry Hunt expounds on the importance of desiring Jesus and His word. Hunger for a word from Him and...

The spiritual growth and development in a Christian’s life depends on the desire of the heart. In order for growth to occur, there must be a hunger and desire for the Word of God to work.

God knows what He is doing. He knows what must be cut out of our lives to help us experience better development. He removes what hurts our growth and maturity.

For growth to happen in a Christian’s life, the Lord may have to cut or prune what is not needed out of that life.

Today, Pastor Jerry Hunt and Pastor Mark Mauldin open the scriptures and show us the importance of growing and developing in Christ.

The Word of God will convict you and draw you into line. This is a part of a Christian's growth and development throughout life. Today, Pastor Jerry Hunt and Pastor Mark Mauldin share the importance of being willing to allow the Word of God to do its work in you.

He is working through the power of the Holy Ghost even today, and we must continue preaching in His name.
