The More Abundant Life
God 484 – The Ministry of Jesus Christ Below are written all the Scriptures and some of my notes, making it easy for you to follow along with the lesson right from your devices. To teach everything involved in Jesus Christ's ministry would take many hours, but here's a teaching on the part of Jesus Christ's Ministry that we can see from the Bible. John 8:28b & 29 “I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. 29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.” His father, God, taught...

God 483 – The Beginnings of Jesus Christ Ministry Below are written all the Scriptures and some of my notes, making it easy for you to follow along with the lesson right from your devices. In God's Word, there are many beginnings to the life of Jesus Christ. There are many parts of beginning His life, just like every other human being. Sometimes, we might go to college or some other endeavor. I'm thinking about what the beginning of your college career is. Is it the day you start school and take your first class? Yes, that is, but what about the preparation? When you apply, when you get...

482 – Faithful
The More Abundant Life
God 482 – Faithful What does it mean to be faithful? All of us endeavoring to do our best for God want to be faithful. To understand how to be faithful, let's look at what it is to be faithful today. 1 Corinthians 4:1 & 2 “Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. 2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” What does it mean to be faithful? Let's look at it closely. Being faithful does not mean being perfect because nobody can be perfect. Only one person ever was perfect, and that was our Lord and...

479 – Stand in Grace
The More Abundant Life
God 479 – Stand in Grace It's not always easy to know what to do. You make the best decision you can. Starting by asking God, studying all your options, and thinking about it. When you feel at peace, go ahead with it. Sometimes, changes will need to be made. You may even have to start over, but God is always there with us to help us along the way. Romans 5:2 “By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” Standing in Grace means we can change our minds to get the desired results following God's guidance. Matthew 6:25 –...

478 – My Ministry of God's Word
The More Abundant Life
God 478 – My Ministry of God's Word God bless. I started this podcast by introducing my new page on my website, The Calendar and Monthly Newsletter page, and I read it. Then I explained my Ministry is a Ministry of The Word, meaning The Word of God. Then, I explain why, in everything I do, my main focus and concentration is. It is The Word, The Word, The Word, nothing but The Word. Luke 4:1 – 4 “And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, 2 Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when...

477 – Victory in Christ
The More Abundant Life

Victory over the world, over unbelief, over selfishness, over indifference, over Temptations, over Pride, over fear, over Trouble, over sin, over death, over defeat, and many other things.

The More Abundant Life
God 476 – The Bible and Revelation. At the end of our workshop last week, I mentioned that Jesus Christ lived his life and ran his ministry by the written Word of God and by revelation. Now, He has commissioned the Believers to do the same thing in this Administration. To live by the Word of God and by revelation. Mark 11:22 – 24 “And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he...

475 – God Works
The More Abundant Life
God 475 – God Works Joseph knew what God wanted. He knew it because of the Word of God that he was taught to him by his father and by the Word of God that God taught him. In the Old Testament, there's plenty of learning, education, and good knowledge about how to walk with God, but you have to read it distinctly and slowly. Asking God for understanding and being meek. Genesis 41:28 – 44 “This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is about to do he sheweth unto Pharaoh. 29 Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: 30 And there shall...

466 – The Benefit of Speaking In Tongues
This is session two of the series I'm doing on "Perfect Praise, Prayer, and Worship," which can be found on the website. The link is in the show notes on the Online Classes and Teachings page.
1 Corinthians 14:4 & 5 “He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church. 5 I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.”
To edify you.
1 Corinthians 14:2 “For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.”
To speak to God divine secrets.
1 Corinthians 14:16 & 17 “Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest? 17 For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.”
To give thanks well.
Romans 8:16 & 17 “The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.”
To have the spirit bear witness with our spirit that you are a joint-heirs with Christ.
1 Corinthians 14:14 & 15 “For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. 15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.”
To pray perfectly.
Romans 8:26 – 28 “Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. 28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”
To pray perfectly as God wills.
Ephesians 3:16 “That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;”
To strengthen you with might in your inner man.
Acts 2:11 “Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.”
To speak the wonderful works of God.
Acts 10:46b “For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God.”
To magnify God.
1 Corinthians 14:22 “Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe.”
To be a sign to unbelievers.
Mark 16:17 “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;”
To be a sign to unbelievers.
Isaiah 28:11 & 12 “For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people. 12 To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.”
To bring rest to your soul.
1 Corinthians 14:21 “In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord.”
It will bring rest to your soul, just as Isaiah wrote, and yet they will not hear me, saith the Lord.
Jude 1:19 & 20 “These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit. 20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,”
To edify you.
John 4: 19 – 24 “The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. 21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.”
To have perfect worship that bypasses the five senses that speaking in tongues is perfect worship to God. Perfect praise, prayer, and worship.
Until the next time we get together, may God bless you abundantly.
