The Harlot and the Glory
Belonging House Fellowship
We are not living in ordinary times, but rather, a great time of shifting and transition. I have been going over the words we received on our listening day. I want to end this teaching today with a few practical thoughts for all of us going forward, but before I do that, let's talk about some big thoughts. I was asked a few days ago about the glory and how we carry the glory. And this related to something Bob Jones said before he died, that the glory of God was going to return to the church, and that the glory would accompany the...

Blessed with the Resources of Heaven
Belonging House Fellowship
Lord Jesus Christ, I believe that you are the Son of God and the only way to God, that you died on the cross for my sins and rose again from the dead. That on the cross you were made a curse with every curse that is due to me, that I might be redeemed from the curse and enter into the blessing. Lord, I confess any sins committed by me or by my ancestors. I ask your forgiveness. I also forgive every other person whoever harmed me or wronged me. I forgive them as I would have God forgive me. I also forgive myself. I renounce all contact with the occult in any form and I commit myself to...

Pride, Jezebel, and Leviathan: Spiritual Warfare for Artists
Belonging House Fellowship
The most powerful thing you can do in spiritual warfare is to look at Jesus. And as you ignore the demonic that is feeding on your attention and your rebellion, the demonic realm begins to get starved for attention and just goes away. The most powerful thing you can do is not lose the plot. This is humility. ---- You can support Belonging House at https://belonginghouse.betterworld.org or buymeacoffee.com/christjohnotto.

Do Not Touch the Glory
Belonging House Fellowship
When I began our series on spiritual warfare for artists, I stated that everything we do in discipleship is spiritual war. Your life of prayer, your practice of listening to God, your choice to do what God asks of you, and your regular rhythm as an artist and creative person is just like the daily physical training of a marine. ---- You can support Belonging House at https://belonginghouse.betterworld.org or buymeacoffee.com/christjohnotto.

Exodus 19:3-8, 16-20
Joel 2: 28-32
Acts 2:1-11
John 20:19-23
If you aren't paying attention,
Pentecost
seems to be the most random event in history.
A group of people
praying in a room in Jerusalem
suddenly
see fire on their heads
and they begin to speak in various languages.
And many people and churches
do not understand why Pentecost is important
and they call it the birthday of the church.
And for people who believe that the Holy Spirit
withdrew a generation later,
they try to downplay this event
and look at it as an anomaly.
This is why we read all these lessons each year
to show that Pentecost
is part of a continuum in Scripture,
and also
a great restoration
of God's original plan.
Pentecost is the fulfillment of everything
the Messiah said he would do.
The Holy Spirit is the author of scripture,
and the central character throughout.
This is one of the interesting aspects of the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit always directs the attention to someone else.
You can miss the Holy Spirit in the Bible
if you are not looking.
The Bible begins with the Holy Spirit
hovering over the waters
and out of this chaos comes order.
The Holy Spirit always brings order out of chaos.
Normal Christianity is Charismatic.
