The Resting Place

The purpose of this teaching is to help facilitate discussion and dialogue during our online gathering on Sunday, October 20th. We hope you will take the time to listen and join the conversation!


PROMPT for ONLINE GATHERING DISCUSSION:
Our heart behind this week's teaching is to stir hunger in you to desire more of the knowledge of Jesus. We ask that you take some time to reflect on your journey with the Lord and what hunger has looked like for you in different seasons of life. Where are you currently in regards to hungering and thirsting for the Lord? We believe hunger is a gift however, we have a part to play when it comes to our intentional yielding to His spirit. What are some ways you intentionally yield in your daily life to feed your hunger for the Lord?

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
For they shall be filled.
Matthew 5:6

-----------------------------

In this heartfelt episode of The Resting Place podcast, we celebrate the one-year anniversary of our community with a special reflection on the power of thanksgiving. Joined by our dear friend CJ England, we take a moment to thank Yahweh for His blessings over the past year. We delve into the importance of pausing to give thanks, as highlighted in Psalm 22:3 and the story of the ten lepers in Luke 17. Through these scriptures, we explore how thanksgiving is not just an act of gratitude but a profound expression of faith that leads to wholeness and transfiguration.

We discuss the transformative power of the Holy Spirit in the believer's life, drawing on 2 Corinthians 3 and the writings of E.W. Kenyon. The episode emphasizes the role of righteousness, faith, and love in our spiritual journey, and how they interconnect to support our transfiguration into the image of Christ. We also touch on the creative nature of faith and its ability to bring spiritual realities into the physical realm.

Join us as we reflect on the past year, give thanks for God's goodness, and look forward to an increase in His presence and glory in our lives. This episode is a powerful reminder of the importance of thanksgiving and the transformative journey of faith.
