Apprehending Faith

Posted 10-24-2023 at 07:23 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

Romans 10:17, it says, "So then faith comes by hearing and hearing, by the Word of God."

Christ gave us the gift of faith when we received Him. We must hear the Word of God. The best way to hear it is to say it out loud as we go throughout the day. Also meditate on it and visualize ourselves in the Word. It is Christ's faith in us, not our own faith, that we take up and use.


"In Christ lives all the fullness of God" (Colossians 2:9)

Christ In You

Posted 10-24-2023 at 07:17 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

Colossians 1:27 - "To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory."

The mystery is that Christ is in you. That is your hope of glory. This suggests, then, that our task is not to get Christ into us, but out of us.

What God sees when He looks at you is Christ. Jesus came to show us what Christ looks like when He takes on human form. But it is Christ that God's looking...

Surpassing Knowledge

Posted 10-24-2023 at 06:08 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

I pray that out of His glorious riches, He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord's holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses...

October 24, 2023 – Exhortation

Posted 10-24-2023 at 01:07 AM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

Some Believers are seeing new and terrifying giants emerging and standing at the gates to their life's greatest promises, but this is not a moment to retreat or be intimidated! You may have been saying at this point, "Do I turn back around?

All the attacks that have come against you – the words, the assassination, the lies that told you that you were barren – are going to be shown up as God reveals what has been incubating in secret, increasing through your worship. The delay...

Living In Eternity

Posted 10-23-2023 at 06:03 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

Matthew 6:10 - "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

What world is more real to us?

Is it this present world or the eternal?

We live out of the kingdom we think most about – what our heart and mind are anchored in.


FREEDOM IN OUR SPIRIT

When we are more aware of the ultimate eternal life with God when the temporal world no longer makes much difference, there is a freedom that comes...
