Steve Fry Podcast

To sow to the Spirit is to release yourself from the pressure of achieving outcomes. Releasing yourself from the pressure of getting answers or trying to change your heart yourself. In the midst of hard emotions you can sow to the Spirit by sowing scripture into your emotions. It’s not about you, it’s just a life surrendered to the Spirit.

The heart of a martyr is simply one who wants Jesus in every part of their life and wants to reflect His beauty. In this sermon, Steve Fry will unpack thoughts about the tribulation as it pertains to believers and living a life of true prayer and worship. 

Before the first seal is broken and the end-time clock is set in motion, followers of Jesus will be found in every tribe, nation and tongue. When Christ is about to break the first seal, a sound of worship will come forth in the earth unparalleled in human history! Don’t let the spirit of the age suffocate your faith! Worldwide worship is a sign that Christ is about to open the scroll! 

Unity is the intimacy of knowing and being known for exactly who we are in order to simply delight in each other and value what we can become together. We develop love by entering the way The Spirit binds us together. Unity is love expressed in fellowship: Being in the scriptures together, practicing hospitality toward each other,  praying together, having a common mission.

Because we have lost sight of the truth that our identity in Christ means our identity as members of His Body, we haven't had the sufficient desire for unity. If we rightly understand our faith, we will come into unity. Excellence should be based in our mutual desire to help each other thrive and flourish and our gifts.

When the book of Hebrews talks about Christ making intercession for us, it is not just about Christ praying for us. It is about Christ extending the power of his blood to us. One of the reasons we stand NOT condemned, is so that we can know the piercing love of conviction of sin without becoming anxious that we have lost the favor of God.

There are great joys in conflicts because it is how we discover God as our Rock, our Refuge and our Shield! If we want to be found faithful we need to be ready for pressures that would tempt us to be faithless. If we want to know the power of God our Rock and the great relief of God our Refuge, then we need to embrace the only ways we can ever know these blessings of God: the times of warfare. 

Ever wondered what your purpose is? Your purpose is to be the image of God on this earth! You get to live your best life when you are your unique self, the way God created you to be, reflecting the image of Jesus in you. Reflecting Christ is the way we experience His resurrection life right now! Join as we hear this special Easter message from Steve Fry. 

Worshiping God together shapes us into trust, shapes us into love, shapes us into obedience. If we truly enter into worship we are opening ourselves to God's magnificence. Submitting to God’s authority through worship is a priceless delight.

The Book of Revelation tells us where we’re going so we can be full of faith. Christ is already victorious and has chosen to reveal Himself through the churches [lampstands] and He will empower us to persevere. Perseverance is the realization that nothing can separate you from the love of God.

Dependence is more than relying on God, it is abandoning our mind and emotions to Him. Surrendering our inability to trust rather than trying to trust.  Dependence on God is resigning from ourselves. Holy Spirit will answer our prayers in the way and timing that makes us most like Jesus. 

Ultimately, prayer is acknowledging God's authority. Prayer is not so much asking God to help me as it is me seeing God. Committing things to God and waiting on Him are not so much disciplines we develop, as they are behaviors that flow from our conviction that He is sovereign and possesses all authority. 

God always has a plan for your life. We will totally depend on God when we’re convinced that every battle we face has either been designed by God or allowed by God. The first step toward  joy and peace in your battle is to know that even if God didn’t cause it, He will always be in it! Dependence is not a choice. It is a way of life. 

God came, as a helpless child- that is the answer. The way of the child is victory over darkness. No longer needing all the answers and everything figured out, but rather walking in our identity as His child, being fully dependent on Him.

Before we take authority over Satan, let’s take authority over our own thoughts. Strongholds are not just areas of demonic control in a person; strongholds can just as much be ungodly thoughts which become ungodly attitudes.  Negative, destructive, and sinful thoughts are best overcome by the Holy showing us the beauty of Jesus! A sermon by Steve Fry. 

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.
