Ministering from the Soul or Spirit

January 07, 2024 06:00 - 44 minutes - 30.8 MB

When we are serving, are we ministering from our soul or the Spirit? Ministering from the soul or flesh looks like the Spirit.

Observation

October 02, 2023 05:00 - 35 minutes - 24.2 MB

The kingdom does not come with observation. You can't see it in the natural because it is a function of the spirit realm. Jesus said, it is in you. So you can't check in the natural for evidence to see if the kingdom is working. When the lepers came to Jesus they were healed in the spirit the moment Jesus prayed for them but there was no evidence in the natural. They were healed as they went. So, live your life, believe God and your prayer will become a reality, if you continue to believe.
