Discover Your Spiritual Identity with Mike Shreve

Old Covenant redemption laws amazingly foreshadowed what Jesus came to accomplish in the New Covenant. The same Hebrew word translated “redeemer” is also rendered “nearest kinsman” and “avenger” of blood. How are these related and what’s it got to do with redemption? Equally intriguing, why is the “year of Jubilee” also called the “year of God’s redeemed”? Life-changing revelation in this teaching...

The first mention of redemption in the Bible unveils such mysteries and such powerful revelation. Learning to “say so”—to confess your redemption rights is an important part of seizing what is rightfully yours. Learn God’s perfect will, that even as it was with Jacob, God intends to redeem you from “all evil.” One of the most life-changing teachings you will ever hear. www.shreveministries.org

The solution for the fallen condition of the human race is not rehabilitation; it’s recreation! Only in Christianity is this offered. “If anyone is in Christ, he is A NEW CREATION”! In the New Covenant, God gives His offspring “a new spirit” and a “new heart.” From that point forward the “inward man” is “renewed” (made new all over again) every moment of every day. Wow! You will never be the same...

Ambassadors are representatives, messengers sent on a specific mission, those who speak, not their own minds, but the mind and will of those nations or rulers who are being represented. This episode will open your eyes to the heart God has toward those who are of the world, deceived, and defiled: how He pleads through His ambassadors for erring sinners to be reconciled to Him. A powerful truth.

In the book of the Revelation, the seven churches of Asia are symbolized by seven menorah lampstands, similar to the lampstands that lit the holy place in the temple of God. There are five parts of a lampstand and each one represents an important spiritual, prophetic truth: the vessel, the oil, the wick, the fire, and the light. A beautiful parable concerning your new identity in Christ!

God’s people are called “sons of the mighty” in Psalm 89:6. Our Father is the Almighty (the all-powerful, all-sufficient God). The Holy Spirit is the “Spirit of might” who dwells within us, strengthening us with “might” in the inner man. We have weapons of warfare that are “mighty through God.” No weapon formed against can prosper! Overcoming this world and its darkness is simply part of our spiri...

One of the great mysteries of the kingdom of God is this: that only by admitting your great lack in the flesh can you gain God’s abundance spiritually, only by seeing yourself bankrupt “in Adam” can you inherit the unsearchable riches residing “in Christ.” Only those who say, “Without Him I can do nothing,” can go on to say, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” This revelation...

Wonderful names and titles were bestowed on the Son of God at His entrance into this world that powerfully revealed His nature and purpose. Amazingly, as His identity unfolded in the beginning, the identity of His future sons and daughters in the coming kingdom also unfolded. Let’s explore this inspiring revelation together and rejoice in God’s gift to fallen humanity, that lifted us from degradat...

You know that you have received gifts  from  God; but did you realize you have also become a gift  to  God? This is one of your God-given names! (Num. 18:6). When Jesus “ascended on high,” He gave “gifts to men”—like faith, peace, joy, righteousness, the Holy Spirit, and eternal life (Ps. 68:13 KJV). Once these gifts are deposited in your life, you become a gift, both to God and to others. 

“THE CHURCH OF THE FIRSTBORN” is a name given to New Covenant sons and daughters in Hebrews 12:23. That means the church in which every member is considered a firstborn son. We are all equally loved by the Father, and we have all received a double-portion inheritance, for time and for eternity. You will also see, it means every child of God is a “king, priest, and prophet” in the sight of heaven....

The disciples pled with Jesus, “Increase our faith.” Instead of working some spectacular miracle, in answering their request, the Son of God simply spoke two mini-parables. Surprisingly, one of them seems it could actually be destructive to faith—until the deeper, hidden meaning is unveiled. Powerful insights for those who are called to be “the household of faith” (Galatians 6:10). www.shreveminis...

One of the most remarkable and recognizable characteristics of the family of God is the gift of faith that resides within us. This wondrous ability to believe creates an unbreakable bond—that binds us to God and to each other. For this reason, we are called “the household of faith” or as one translation puts it, “the family of believers.” No matter what comes our way in life, “this is the victory...

Various names given to the Holy Spirit indicate our inheritance as “partakers of the Holy Spirit” (Heb. 6:4). Names explored on this episode include the Spirit of life, the Spirit of holiness, the Spirit of adoption, the Spirit of grace and supplication, the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, the Spirit of faith, and the Spirit of glory. www.shreveministries.org

Various names given to the Holy Spirit indicate our inheritance as “partakers of the Holy Spirit” (Heb. 6:4). For example, He is called “the Helper” so we can expect Him to help us in time of need. He is the “Spirit of wisdom” so we can expect to receive God’s wise counsel when we face confusing circumstances. He is the “Spirit of truth” who leads us into all truth, so we can expect to overcome th...

God names His people “hidden ones” in Psalm 83:3. God promises to hide us from the shrewd plots of godless people and satanic powers. If you belong to Jesus, you are “hidden” in the “secret of His presence” and “under the shadow of His wings.” This supernatural preservation will become more evident as evil intensifies in this world. www.shreveministries.org

One of the highest privileges given to God’s offspring—and one of the greatest aspects of our inheritance is the supreme honor of being partakers of His divine nature—in other words, sharing His character, His personality, His attributes. This miraculous process happens by God’s grace and is manifested in our lives by faith. Through this amazing opportunity, we successfully overcome this world and...

God has established nine covenants to redeem and restore His people in this world. The eighth is called “The New Covenant”—because this covenant is especially about God making all things new. It begins invisibly and internally with each child of the covenant becoming “a new creation” (2 Cor. 5:17). It will end with a spectacular external and visible transformation of the entire universe—a new crea...

In this second teaching on our calling to be “children of the covenant,” we will examine four biblical stories about human covenants that powerfully and wonderfully reveal the nature of the far-more-important covenant relationship we possess with the Everlasting Father. This insight will give you much greater confidence in your walk with God.  www.shreveministries.org

God has established nine major covenants in this world from the Garden of Eden onward. He is a covenant-making, covenant-keeping, covenant-revealing, covenant-establishing God. His people are called “children of the covenant” (Acts 3:25). This is our identity and the source of our stability in a very unstable world. This revelation will empower you in amazing ways!  www.shreveministries.org

The God of the Bible is a God of signs and wonders. He brought His people Israel out of Egypt with signs and wonders and then they became a sign and a wonder in this world. He birthed the church on Pentecost with signs and wonders, and then, in fulfillment of an ancient prophecy, the disciples became signs and wonders in their generation. This divine purpose is still going on. God hasn’t changed!...

The impartation of righteousness is one of the most amazing promises found in the Bible. God’s Word indicts the whole human race with the statement, “There is none righteous, no, not one” (Romans 3:10) So how is it even possible to have a righteous status in the sight of God? Paul was the main Bible writer who revealed this mystery. On this podcast, I am going to share the mystery with you. Prepar...

An epistle is a letter to an individual or a group. Twenty-one of the twenty-seven books in the New Testament are epistles, small portions of the total written Word. But believers are small portions of the total LIVING WORD. They are LIVING EPISTLES (epistles of Christ, love letters from the Messiah to a hurting and broken world). www.shreveministries.org

Jesus compared His message and methods to those of John the Baptist, and though they were very different, He made it clear they were both justified in their approach to ministry. The Son of God also explained those who follow the leading of"the Spirit of wisdom" as God's representatives in this world qualify to be called "the children of wisdom.” Since the Bible claims, “Wisdom is the principal th...

Did you know you have inherited eight major biblical mountains? Of course, this is not a literal, but a spiritual inheritance, shared with every other born-again child of God under the New Covenant. These mountains are “high points” in the history of humanity, times of divine intervention when God came down to earth and drew His people up to various “peak” revelations of His purposes and redemptiv...
