Calvary Church Bentonville

Throughout. history the world has issued its inspiring cries of victory and challenges. The greatest cry of victory and triumph that has ever been spoken came from a dying man on a cross, when Jesus Christ lifted up His head with all the strength of His soul shouted out, "It is finished."

Tonight, we dove a little deeper into the specifics, honing in on the first six of the nine gifts of the Spirit outlined in 1 Corinthians.

What we want from God is sense, but what God wants from us is faith.

Beyond the gift of the Holy Spirit, God acknowledges other gifts that become evident in the church, some of which He unilaterally gives, others that we bring into the body of Christ that are developed naturally, which we surrender to Him.

Does Satan have you besieged? Do you feel trapped, wrapped up and defeated? Listen closely, and mark his words. If he is telling you that God can’t or won’t deliver you, start looking up to the hills! Your help is on its way! God is about to retaliate against your enemy and confirm His promises to you!

As members of a church, we learn to say “we” instead of “I” and “our” instead of “mine.” God blesses churches that are unified like that!

When you receive the salvation of God you are filled with joy, the joy of His salvation. Joy that can’t be adequately expressed with words. It should radiate out of us.

As christians, it is our responsibility to protect the unity of the church. This can be done by focusing on what we have in common and not our differences, developing the right attitudes, be united in spirit and purpose.

God can save anybody, at anywhere, at anytime.
