Hello
Everyone,
When Jesus
breathed on the disciples and commanded them to receive the Holy Spirit
He was reminding them of the creative life-force that comes from God.
God’s breath
is what brought Adam to life in the garden.
Gen. 2:7. the
LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his
nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. (soul,
KJV)
In a way
Jesus was reenacting that scene from Gen. 2. He was teaching them
about the LIFE He gives.
It is the
Holy Spirit who gives life. Just as physical breath is essential to
physical life, the Holy Spirit (God’s breath) is necessary to spiritual
life.
We are
never truly alive until we are quickened by the POWER of the Spirit of God.
All we
have is religion if we have not been born of the Spirit.
It is the
Spirit of God that is the Source of life - both physical and spiritual.
In giving us the Spirit He is giving us the POWER TO LIVE.
Let the
breath of now blow on us!
Greater
Things Are Still To Come!
Pastor
Phil
PS
Don't forget starting this Wednesday at Freedom Center South 7:00pm we are
starting what I believe is was of the most powerful series that I have ever
prepared "OUR SUPERNATURAL PARTNER". I believe that the next several
weeks is going to be life changing. If you do not normally attend our Wednesday
night celebration I want to encourage you to make every effort to do so.
