Living in the Revelation of His Name — God as Covenant-Keeper – The God Who Makes Covenant

Living in the Revelation of His Name — God as Covenant-Keeper – The God Who Makes Covenant

Awakened to Deliver — Living in the Revelation of His Name Week 26 — God as Covenant-Keeper Day 1 – The God Who Makes Covenant Key Verse: Genesis 17:7 (WEBUS) “I will establish my covenant between me and you and your offspring after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to you and to your offspring after you.” ⸻ Episode Highlights • A covenant in Scripture is more than a contract. It reveals God’s heart to bind Himself to His promises. • God is the One who initiates covenant. He moves toward His people first. • In Genesis 15, God alone passes between the covenant pieces, showing that His faithfulness secures the promise. • Abram was counted righteous by faith before circumcision and before the law. • In Genesis 17, God repeatedly says, “I will,” showing that covenant begins with His grace and power. • God’s covenant promises shape identity, which is seen when Abram becomes Abraham. • Throughout Scripture, God is the One who seeks, calls, remembers, and rescues His people. • Salvation reflects this same truth: God moved toward us in Christ while we were still sinners. • Obedience does not earn covenant relationship. It is the fruit of faith in the God who first pursued us. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • Genesis 15:1–6 – God promises Abram descendants, and Abram believes by faith. • Genesis 15:17–18 – God alone passes between the covenant pieces. • Genesis 17:1–7 – God establishes His covenant with Abraham as an everlasting covenant. • Genesis 3:9 – God seeks Adam after the fall. • Exodus 2:24 – God remembers His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. • Romans 5:8 – God demonstrates His love while we were still sinners. • Ephesians 2:8–9 – Salvation is by grace through faith, not by works. ⸻ Takeaway Thought The story of covenant begins with God’s initiative, not ours. We do not persuade God to care for us. He is the One who speaks, promises, pursues, and provides. The God who makes covenant is the God who moves toward sinners with grace and invites them into relationship through Jesus Christ. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree found in the show notes.

He glorifies Jesus and leads believers into deeper fellowship with Him. • Because the Spirit dwells within believers, there is grace for weakness, power for obedience, and hope for every battle. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • Romans 8:11 – The Spirit who raised Jesus will also give life to our mortal bodies. • Romans 1:4 – Jesus was declared the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of Holiness. • 2 Corinthians 5:17 – In Christ, believers are a new creation. • John 3:3–8 – New birth comes through the Spirit. • Titus 3:4–7 – Salvation comes through regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit. • John 16:14 – The Holy Spirit glorifies Jesus Christ. ⸻ Takeaway Thought The Spirit of Grace and Holiness is the Spirit of resurrection life.

The Names / Titles of the Holy Spirit – The Spirit of Grace and Holiness – Grace for the Battle Against Compromise

Awakened to Deliver – The Spirit of Grace and Holiness Day 4 – Grace for the Battle Against Compromise Key Verse: 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 (WEBUS) “Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.” ⸻ Episode Highlights • The Spirit of Grace and Holiness empowers believers to reject compromise and live in obedience to Christ. • Grace does not excuse sin. Grace teaches us to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts. • Paul reminds believers that their bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit and that they belong to God. • “You are not your own” is a powerful reminder that Christians have been bought with the blood of Jesus. • Compromise is dangerous because it grieves the Holy Spirit and weakens our fellowship with God. • The Spirit lovingly warns us before small compromises become deeper strongholds. • Holiness is not legalism, and obedience is not self-effort. God’s grace supplies the strength to obey. • The Spirit helps believers flee temptation, set wise boundaries, and walk in wisdom rather than fleshly desire. • True freedom is found in surrender to Christ, not in following the world’s idea of self-rule. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 – You belong to God and are a temple of the Holy Spirit. • Titus 2:11–12 – Grace teaches us to deny ungodliness and live godly lives. • Ephesians 4:30 – Believers are warned not to grieve the Holy Spirit. • 2 Corinthians 12:9 – God’s grace is sufficient in our weakness. • Genesis 39:7–12 – Joseph flees temptation instead of entertaining compromise. • Galatians 5:16 – Walk by the Spirit and do not fulfill the lust of the flesh. ⸻ Takeaway Thought The Spirit of Grace does not leave us comfortable in compromise. He reminds us that we belong to Christ, convicts us when we drift, and gives us strength to walk in holiness. You were bought with a price, and God’s grace is enough to help you live like you belong to Him. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree found in the show notes.

Colossians 4:10–14

Awakened Bible Study – Colossians 4:10–14 Faithful Fellow Workers in Christ Key Verse: Colossians 4:12 (WEB) “Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, greets you, always striving for you in his prayers, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.” ⸻ Episode Highlights • Paul’s closing greetings remind us that ministry was deeply relational in the early church. • Aristarchus is called Paul’s fellow prisoner, showing the value of faithful brothers who stay near during hardship. • Mark is a beautiful picture of restoration. Though he once failed, God matured him and made him useful again. • Jesus called Justus is briefly mentioned, but even that reminds us that quiet faithfulness matters in the kingdom of God. • Epaphras stands out as a man of deep prayer, always striving in intercession for the spiritual maturity of believers. • Luke, the beloved physician, shows that God uses people with different callings and gifts in His work. • Demas serves as a sobering warning that it is possible to begin near ministry and still drift away through love for this present world. • These verses show that the Gospel moves forward through ordinary believers who remain faithful to Christ. • The Christian life is not just about beginning well, but finishing faithfully. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • Colossians 4:10–14 – Paul’s fellow workers in Christ. • Acts 15:36–40 – Mark’s earlier failure and the disagreement between Paul and Barnabas. • 2 Timothy 4:11 – Mark later becomes useful to Paul in ministry. • Galatians 6:1 – The call to restore those who stumble. • Hebrews 6:10 – God does not forget faithful service. • 1 John 2:15–17 – A warning against loving the world. • 2 Timothy 4:10 – Demas turns away because he loved this present world. ⸻ Takeaway Thought God sees every faithful servant. Some suffer like Aristarchus, some are restored like Mark, some labor in prayer like Epaphras, some quietly remain steady like Luke, and some warn us by their drift like Demas. The question is not whether we appear successful, but whether we remain faithful to Jesus Christ to the end. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree found in the show notes.

Awakened to Deliver – Season 2 – The Names / Titles of the Holy Spirit Week 25 – The Spirit of Grace and Holiness Day 3 - The Spirit Who Sanctifies the Believer Key Verse: 2 Thessalonians 2:13 (WEBUS) “But we are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief in the truth.” ⸻ Episode Highlights • Salvation is not only about forgiveness—it is also about transformation. • Sanctification is the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit in the believer’s life. • The Spirit of Grace and Holiness does not save us and then leave us unchanged. • He teaches us, corrects us, comforts us, strengthens us, and forms the character of Christ within us. • Spiritual growth is not accomplished by human effort alone, but by learning to walk by the Spirit. • Galatians 5 shows the conflict between the flesh and the Spirit in every believer. • The presence of that battle is often evidence that the Spirit is at work, creating new desires for righteousness. • The fruit of the Spirit reflects the character of Jesus: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. • Sanctification is usually gradual. God’s grace is patient, and growth often unfolds over time. • The God who begins the work of sanctification is faithful to complete it. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • 2 Thessalonians 2:13 – Salvation includes sanctification by the Spirit. • Galatians 5:16–17 – Walk by the Spirit and resist the flesh. • Galatians 5:22–23 – The fruit of the Spirit reflects Christ’s character. • John 15:5 – Apart from Christ we can do nothing. • Philippians 1:6 – God will complete the good work He began. • Romans 8:12–14 – We put sin to death by the Spirit. ⸻ Takeaway Thought God does not merely pardon sinners—He transforms them.
