Steve Fry Podcast

Prayer always starts with God coming to you. You can start being an intercessor by telling God the worries you have for others in your life. To intercede is to stand before God on behalf of someone else and ask Him to show favor and/or show mercy to them. If you learn to pray to God about what’s on your heart, you will develop a hunger to pray about what’s on God’s heart. A sermon by Steve Fry.   

The flesh is anything we put our confidence in other than Jesus! If we want to know Christ completely we have to abandon all other sources of confidence because it ultimately robs us of joy in the Spirit. Once you abandon yourself to a life of letting Jesus be Jesus through you, you will find the abundance that Jesus promised. 

Jesus walking with us becomes a greater joy when we discover how Jesus walks through us. Once you abandon yourself to a life of letting Jesus be Jesus through you, you will find the abundance that Jesus promised. A sermon by Steve Fry.

We receive all things from God by faith. We are saved by faith and we are empowered by faith. We have been raised with Christ and we have received fullness. When we pursue God, when we yield to the Holy Spirit, we do so from fullness. Worshiping God in spirit and in truth becomes the lifestyle of the fullness we have received.

There is a difference between the manifestation of tongues and a personal spirit-language. A personal devotional prayer language (heavenly language) strengthens our spirit. A prayer language is experienced by faith as an act of yielding to God. 

The God Community of Father, Son, and Spirit is the foundation of everything. Individuality is an illusion. We now live from the full security of that intimacy. This becomes the abundant life Jesus promised. Because we are secure in our intimacy with Christ, we are freed to daily yield to The Holy Spirit.

When we participate in God’s life we live in and live from His rest. This is what living in rest means… Christ is enough. In this message Steve unpacks the different manifestations of the Holy Spirit & how we operate in those manifestations from a place of rest. 

A church that desires the Spirit's manifestations will stay healthy if it has a greater desire for the Spirit's fruit. In the early Pentecostal Outpouring we became a 'power' culture rather than a 'witness' culture. God has called us more to participation in his life than a partnership with his power.

To experience resurrection power is to see pain as an invitation to God’s Presence. Resurrection power is falling into God’s arms by falling into the pain, without resolving the it, trusting God to raise you above the pain. It is at the point of embracing your pain that you discover God!

The fruit of the Spirit is not only what He produces, but even more so who He is. When our focus is on the Lordship of Christ, we will possess a deep desire that Christ is exalted in a body of believers, and a deep hunger for the fruit of The Spirit. The message of God's love will capture your attention; but the message of God's Lordship will transform your life. 

What the Holy Spirit initiates will always result in a heightened awareness of the Lordship of Jesus Christ. To be a ‘spiritual’ is to walk in the ‘fruit-gifts’: the full range of life in the Spirit, both His fruits, gifts, and manifestations.

When it comes to your giftings, the biggest discovery is not discovering your gift; it is discovering how your gift fits with others. The shared spiritual experience described in 1 Corinthians 12-14 is meant for groups large enough for the manifestations of The Spirit to be expressed and small enough for everyone to participate.

For Christ, emptying Himself looked like being a servant. Serving is what freedom looks like. Taking the form of a servant is far more than merely acts of service or "serving people"… To take the form of a servant meant that the entire system of thinking shaped by "becoming" was nullified by Christ. Serving people daily becomes a key part of complete surrender. 

We cultivate Christ-Culture when we ‘see’ each other primarily as members of His Body. Christ is not disappointed with His Body members, so we don’t have to be either.

The blessings of encouragement, comfort, and access to the power of the Spirit are not the result of conditions we have to meet, but the source of life we already have.

A Christ-community is not just a group that wants to exalt Jesus; it is being a group that experiences Christ by participating in the Holy Spirit’s gifts together and exhibits Christ by partnering in our God assigned gifts.

Prayer is seeking God in the places we are not yet finding Him. Where we lack peace and joy, shows us the areas where we have not found God. In this sermon we will dive into practical applications for hearing God clearly in your life! 

As a child of God we need to hear from the Lord in our relationship with Him. In this message, Steve will unpack 5 simple steps you can utilize for silencing every other voice and tuning in to what Father God is speaking to you. 

Your life is meant to flow out of not just The Word of God, but The Voice of God as well.  If you learn to listen to God in and through The Scriptures, you will be far more able to discern God’s voice from Satan’s voice or your voice.

Wrestling isn’t fighting; it is competing… in a match already won! It’s not so much that we ‘battle’ the enemy, as it is that we stand in Christ’s victory.
