Burning For Him

Posted 11-25-2023 at 08:08 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

"For our God is a consuming fire." - Hebrews 12:29

God's voice dwells in the midst of the fire! Fire consumes the sacrifice, and in Romans 12:1-2 we are told to surrender our bodies and renew our minds. As we lay our flesh upon His altar, we are consumed!

Mark 9:49 - "For everyone will be salted with fire."

We are called to burn for Him and be voices of awakening. The Father desires to set regions ablaze with holy fire, but it will...

November 25, 2023 – Exhortation

Posted 11-25-2023 at 09:09 AM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

There is no breakthrough without a life of sacrifice. God breaks through when you give your time and the other things that you have in the context of advancing His Kingdom.

"The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority; but the Father who dwells in me does his works." - John 14:10

Fleeing To The Power Of His Cross

Posted 11-24-2023 at 09:57 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

Hebrews 4:16 - "Let us therefore draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and may find grace to help in time of need. "

The Holy Spirit was sent to convict us of sin, and He will point out our sin.

The remedy is to repent. Repentance is not just turning away from the sin, but it is turning to the Lord. If we only take a half step of turning from the sin, we will fall again.

We must turn to the Lord, fleeing...

The Kingdom Of Heaven Is At Hand

Posted 11-24-2023 at 06:14 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

We serve a mighty God! We can boldly declare with the apostle Paul, "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek" (Romans 1:16). We can be absolutely sure that the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ is the power of God to salvation for every single person who believes. The gospel of Christ is the power of God!

The presence of the Holy Spirit, which brings both the...
