The amount of grace you see in any assembly of God’s people is dependent highly on two major factors:

These two things are very important recipes in the grace you see in any assembly. The progress, the impact.

Once these two things are present every other thing flows easily.

There is a Radical sense to our faith. It overthrows the Normal. We carry a message that might sound foolish to people but its true.

Unity is one of God’s overarching desires for his people.

Having different small churches is not the problem, having many denominations is the problem. Because Unity in the church is unity in the word.

Salvation is personal and yet not personal. You are saved into an assembly.

You have been called out into a fellowship. A fellowship of the church of the firstborn.

The Church of Christ, The Church of Jesus.

Corinthians 6:19 NKJV

[19] Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?

The Hebrew Scriptures anticipated the day when the Spirit of God would be present among all of His people.

When the presence of God would dwell with mankind forever.

The result is simply this: God’s holy space is now the people of God who have found their identity in Jesus and His finished work.

And he has come to stay forever!

This is your reality in Christ!

Luke 4:4,8,12 NKJV

[4] But Jesus answered him, saying, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.'"

[8] And Jesus answered and said to him, "Get behind Me, Satan! For it is written, 'You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve.' "

[12] And Jesus answered and said to him, "It has besen said, 'You shall not tempt the LORD your God.' "

Jesus said! The greek word for saying there is legō it means to break the silence it can also mean to affirm.

He spoke in response.

Learn to respond to temptations with affirmations, with speaking. Don’t fight thoughts with thoughts but with speech.

John 4:22-24 NKJV

[22] You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews. [23] But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. [24] God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth."

This is how worship is made easy in the New Testament. You have been redeemed to God and saved. And your worship to God is meaningful. It’s a deep spiritual activity.

God’s spirit lives inside of you now, it calls you to deep intimate fellowship with God.

The gospel call is a call to worship, to turn from sin and death and call upon the name of the Lord in boldness and in response to who he is.

The sole purpose of the existence of man is to serve God and do the will of God. It is to the Glory of God!

It’s obedience and consecration to God.

This was never a struggle for man, it was an effortless activity.

For the new creation, an opportunity presents itself again, Not just for the mere whispering of words in devotion, but for men who would stop at nothing to connect their lives to the source of all lives constantly and would give hours in prayer and study.

The aim of this teaching is to give a clear understanding of what tongues is and why it’s important to the believer.
