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.

episode Colossians 4:10–14 artwork

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.

The Names / Titles of the Holy Spirit – The Spirit of Grace and Holiness - The Spirit Who Sanctifies the Believer

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. Sanctification is not about trying harder in your own strength. It is about yielding to the Holy Spirit as He makes you more like Jesus, one surrendered step at a time. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree found in the show notes.

The Names / Titles of the Holy Spirit – The Spirit of Grace and Holiness – The Spirit Who Convicts and Restores

Awakened to Deliver – Season 2 – The Names / Titles of the Holy Spirit Week 25 – The Spirit of Grace and Holiness Day 2 - The Spirit Who Convicts and Restores Key Verse: John 16:8 (WEBUS) “When he has come, he will convict the world about sin, about righteousness, and about judgment.” ⸻ Episode Highlights • Conviction is one of the loving ministries of the Holy Spirit. • The Spirit of Grace and Holiness exposes sin, not to condemn us, but to restore us. • Conviction and condemnation are not the same thing. • Condemnation pushes people away from God, but conviction draws them back to Him. • The Holy Spirit reveals sin so that repentance and healing can begin. • Godly sorrow produces repentance, while worldly sorrow leads to despair. • The story of David shows that conviction is meant to lead to confession, humility, and restoration. • The Spirit does not expose sin to shame believers, but to bring them back into the light. • Resistance to conviction leads to hardness, but humility before God leads to renewal. • Confession and repentance are not signs that grace has failed—they are evidence that grace is at work. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • John 16:7–8 – The Holy Spirit convicts the world. • Romans 8:1 – There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ. • 2 Corinthians 7:10 – Godly sorrow produces repentance. • Psalm 51:10–11 – David’s prayer after conviction and repentance. • Psalm 139:23–24 – Ask God to search the heart. • 1 John 1:9 – Confession brings forgiveness and cleansing. ⸻ Takeaway Thought Conviction is not the opposite of grace. It is one of grace’s most beautiful expressions, because God loves us too much to leave us comfortable in what is destroying us. The Spirit convicts so that we may repent, be restored, and walk closely with Jesus again. ⸻ 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 1 - Grace That Calls Us to Holiness Key Verse: Titus 2:11–12 (WEBUS) “For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men, instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age.” ⸻ Episode Highlights • Grace and holiness are not opposites—God’s grace produces holiness. • The Holy Spirit is both the Spirit of Grace and the Spirit of Holiness. • Biblical grace is not permission to remain in sin; it teaches us to deny ungodliness. • Grace is opposed to earning, not to obedience. • We are not saved by good works, but we are saved for good works. • God’s holiness is not lowered by grace; grace brings us into right relationship with a holy God through Jesus Christ. • Jesus perfectly reveals both grace and truth. • The same Spirit who forgives believers also transforms them. • Holiness begins with God’s character and is produced in us through the work of the Holy Spirit. • God’s grace lovingly lifts us toward holy living through the finished work of Christ. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • Titus 2:11–12 – Grace teaches us to live godly lives. • Hebrews 10:29 – The Holy Spirit is called the Spirit of Grace. • Romans 1:4 – The Holy Spirit is called the Spirit of Holiness. • Ephesians 2:8–10 – We are saved by grace and created for good works. • 1 Peter 1:15–16 – God calls His people to be holy because He is holy. • Isaiah 6:3 – God is holy, holy, holy. • John 1:14 – Jesus is full of grace and truth. ⸻ Takeaway Thought God’s grace does not lower His standard of holiness.
