The Power Of Thanksgiving

Posted 08-15-2023 at 10:14 AM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

Luke 17:18 - "Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?”

All ten lepers needed physical healing and Jesus was moved with compassion and met their needs. He also desired to meet their spiritual needs, but only one out of the ten came back to give thanks.

Being unthankful is always a sign that self is exalting itself above God. A selfless person can be content with very little. A self-centered person cannot be satisfied. Thankfulness...

Understanding Your Christ Identity

Posted 08-15-2023 at 10:13 AM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

2 Timothy 2:8 - "Constantly keep in mind Jesus Christ, the Messiah, risen from the dead." AMP

Remember that when Jesus arose, you arose. When He came out of hell and defeated the enemy, you came out of hell and defeated the enemy. His victory is your victory because you're in Him. In the hard places, remember that.

When the devil tells you that you're not going to get your answer this time, remember, Jesus Christ, risen from the dead. Think about it until...

Overcoming Strongholds

Posted 08-15-2023 at 10:12 AM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

2 Corinthians 10:4 - "For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds."

A stronghold is a satanic force that starts as a thought, then lays its foundation in a person's mind, builds itself up and makes its abode there. You can't simply cast down a stronghold as you would cast down an evil thought or imagination. You need the Word of God to become like a hammer in your life in order to tear down that stronghold...

August 15, 2023 – Exhortation

Posted 08-15-2023 at 09:18 AM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

Ephesians 3:20–21: “Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations,"

You come to understand that your future comes from God’s possibilities and from His potential, not the world’s. His potential and all of His promises of possibility flow through the Holy Spirit into you, and He will strengthen you with His might to accomplish those...

Establishing The Reality Of God's Kingdom

Posted 08-14-2023 at 10:22 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

"Then war broke out in Heaven; Michael and his angels went forth to battle with the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought. But they were defeated, and there was no room found for them in Heaven any longer" (Revelation 12:7-8 AMP).

Notice the phrase, "there was no room...for them in Heaven" -- the war against principalities involves displacement -- Christ filling the spiritual territories once held by satan.

Because this war in Heaven is difficult...
