Download or read book The Power Of The Holy Spirit written by Dr Christina Monique Asare and published by Dr Christina Monique Asare. This book was released on 2024-06-22 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Christians today have misconceptions about the identity and nature of the Holy Spirit. Some view God's Spirit as merely an influence, like wind, force, or fire. However, believers need to seek and understand the truth to deepen their understanding of God's nature. In "The Power Of The Holy Spirit: A Gift From God," Dr. Christina Asare delves into the profound mystery of the Holy Spirit. She explains that the Holy Spirit is not just a force but God's very Spirit. Jesus Christ is God manifested in the flesh, and understanding the Holy Spirit means recognizing Him as Jesus Christ's presence among us. Although Jesus walked on the earth with His disciples, His presence continues through the Holy Spirit, embodying God's essence. This insightful book explores the Holy Spirit's role in guiding, empowering, and enriching the lives of believers. Dr. Asare combines theological insights with practical applications to help readers experience the transformative power of the Holy Spirit. By understanding that the Holy Spirit is essentially the presence of Jesus Christ, believers can cultivate a deeper relationship with God and experience His divine influence in their daily lives. "The Power Of The Holy Spirit: A Gift From God" is an essential read for anyone seeking to grow in their faith and gain a more profound understanding of the Holy Spirit's nature and role. Let Dr. Christina Asare guide you on a journey to embrace the Holy Spirit's presence and power in your life. In Second Corinthians 3:17, Paul says, “Now the Lord is that Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.” Paul is saying that the same Jesus Christ who was with the disciples over two thousand years ago is the same who has manifested as the Holy Spirit and is living inside believers today. The Holy Spirit is God’s Spirit, and Jesus Christ is God.
Download or read book Teachings of Presidents of the Church Brigham Young written by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and published by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This book was released on with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prophet Brigham Young taught the restored gospel of Jesus Christ in a basic, practical way that gave inspiration and hope to the Saints struggling to build a home in the wilderness. Though more than a century has now passed, his words are still fresh and appropriate for us today as we continue the work of building the kingdom of God. President Young declared that as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints we possess the “doctrine of life and salvation for all the honest-in-heart” (DBY, 7). He promised that those who receive the gospel in their hearts will have awakened “within them a desire to know and understand the things of God more than they ever did before in their lives” and will begin to “inquire, read and search and when they go to their Father in the name of Jesus he will not leave them without a witness” (DBY, 450). This book reflects the desire of the First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles to deepen the doctrinal understanding of Church members and to awaken within them a greater desire to know the things of God. It will inspire and motivate individuals, priesthood quorums, and Relief Society classes to inquire, read, search, and then go to their Father in Heaven for a witness of the truth of these teachings. Each chapter contains two sections—“Teachings of Brigham Young” and “Suggestions for Study.” The first section consists of extracts from Brigham Young’s sermons to the early Saints. Each statement has been referenced, and the original spelling and punctuation have been preserved; however, the sources cited will not be readily available to most members. These original sources are not necessary to have in order to effectively study or teach from this book. Members need not purchase additional references and commentaries to study or teach these chapters. The text provided in this book, accompanied by the scriptures, is sufficient for instruction. Members should prayerfully read and study President Young’s teachings in order to gain new insights into gospel principles and discover how those principles apply to their everyday lives. By faithfully and prayerfully studying these selections, Latter-day Saints will have a greater understanding of gospel principles and will more fully appreciate the profound and inspired teachings of this great prophet. The second section of each chapter offers a series of questions that will encourage thoughtful contemplation, personal application, and discussion of President Young’s teachings. Members should refer to and carefully reread his words on the principle being discussed. Deep and prayerful study of these teachings will inspire members to greater personal commitment and will help them resolve to follow the teachings of the Savior, Jesus Christ. If individuals and families prayerfully follow the principles in this book, they will be blessed and inspired to greater dedication and spirituality, as were the early Saints who heard these words directly from the lips of the “Lion of the Lord” (HC, 7:434)—the prophet, seer, and revelator, President Brigham Young.

Download or read book Practicing the Power written by Sam Storms and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible teaches us that we are to be filled with God's Spirit and that God's presence and grace is manifested among his people as they serve, love, and minister to one another. Yet some of the gifts that God offers to his people aren't commonly seen in many churches today. Gifts of prophecy, healing, tongues, and other supernatural gifts of God seem to be absent, and many Christians are unsure how to cultivate an atmosphere where God's Spirit can work while remaining committed to the foundational truth of God's Word. How can Christians pursue and implement the miraculous gifts of the Spirit without falling into fanatical excess and splitting the church in the process? In Practicing the Power, pastor and author Sam Storms offers practical steps to understanding and exercising spiritual gifts in a way that remains grounded in the word and centered in the gospel. With examples drawn from his forty years of ministry as a pastor and teachers, Storms offers a guidebook that can help pastors, elders, and church members understand what changes are needed to see God move in supernatural power and to guard against excess and abuse of the spiritual gifts. If you long to see God's Spirit move in your church and life, and aren't sure why that isn't happening or where to begin, this book is for you.
