Pastor Eric's Words of Redemption 

John 4:23

Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.

My take for today: 

Without the Holy Spirit, there is no true worship.

Pray:

Father, 

I thank You for the gift of the Holy Spirit to lead us into true worship. Lord, help me to worship You in spirit and truth.

In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

John 15:5

Jesus said: "I AM the Vine; you are the branches. If you remain in Me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing." 

My take for today: 

Our growth in the Lord depends on the Holy Spirit.

Father, 

Help me to work out my new life with fear and trembling that which you have gifted me in the Spirit to fulfill Your mission accredited to me. Thank You for being my source of fruitfulness for a sure and abundant harvest.

In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

1 Corinthians 13:1-2 ERV

I may speak in different languages, whether human or even of angels. But if I don’t have love, I am only a noisy bell or a ringing cymbal.  ... if I don’t have love, I am nothing.

My take for today: 

Without love, given by the Holy Spirit, I am nothing.

Father, I thank You for the spirit of love, which is the fruit of the Holy Spirit. Lord help us to serve You in love, offering ourselves as a living sacrifice of love; to preach, teach and heal in love by the Holy Spirit. 

In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Luke 11:13 NABRE

Jesus said:  "If you then, who are wicked, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the Father in Heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him?”

My take for today: 

If you are a believer, ask for the gift of the Holy Spirit.

Father, 

I thank You for Your exceptional desire to give us the Holy Spirit if we ask of You. Lord, we ask in the name of Jesus Christ for the baptism of the Holy Spirit and His empowerment to pray, teach and heal. 

In the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ, Amen.

Matthew 4:1-11

...“Worship the Lord your God, and only Him. Serve Him with absolute single-heartedness.”

My take for today: 

The gifts of empowerment by the Holy Spirit.

Father, may I say thank You without any reservations for the gift of the Holy Spirit to help our infirmities as we are faced with temptations, sicknesses, hardships of this world, along with ego and self-reliance to solve the issues of each given day. 
Lord, in Your delight, help us when we are faced with our struggles in this life of darkness, pride and deceptions coming from the flesh and forces of the evil one. 

Our desire is to worship and serve You, Lord God, only. 
In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Matthew 10:1 NIV

Jesus called His twelve disciples to Him and gave them authority to drive out impure spirits and to heal every disease and sickness.

My take for today: 

The gifts of the Gospel: preaching, teaching and healing.

With the spirit of humility, Father, I come to You this morning to thank You for the gifts of preaching, teaching and healing, given to Your servants. Now, Lord, I  release the power of the blood and voice of Jesus, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, to cleanse and heal Your people as they confess and repent of their sins. 
In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Matthew‬ ‭21:12-13‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. “It is written,” He said to them, “‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’ but you are making it ‘a den of robbers.’”

My take for today: 

The Church is not a marketing entity. 

Father, I thank You for making us Your living temple by the death of Your Son and by the giving of the  Holy Spirit.  Father, take control of Your church, throw out all those who are buying and selling and money-milking Your people, in Jesus' name,  Amen.

Hebrews 2:1-4

... we ought to pay much closer attention than ever to the truths that we have heard. 

My take for today: 

The cost of ignoring the Words of the salvation of spirit, soul, and body is a foolish expense. 

In the consciousness of salvation of my spirit, soul, and body, Father let me say thank You Lord for saving me, opening my eyes to the knowledge of self-deliverance, by the power of the Holy Spirit given to me, to experience life in victory.

In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
