Temporada 32

The Glory of God — We Have Seen His Glory

Awakened to Deliver — The Presence and Reality of God Week 32 — The Glory of God Day 3 – We Have Seen His Glory ⸻ Episode Highlights • Jesus Christ is the supreme and fullest revelation of God’s glory. • The eternal Son became truly human without ceasing to be truly God, revealing the Father perfectly through His character, words, and works. • The glory once revealed in the tabernacle is ultimately fulfilled in Christ, the Word who came to dwell among us. • The cross reveals divine glory through humility, obedience, justice, mercy, sacrificial love, and redemption. • Christ’s resurrection and exaltation declare His victory over sin and death and confirm that His saving work is complete. • Every claimed spiritual experience should be tested by Scripture and should ultimately point us toward the biblical Jesus rather than toward human personalities or spectacle. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • John 1:1–3, 14 – The eternal Word became flesh and revealed His glory among us. • John 1:18 – Jesus makes the Father known. • Hebrews 1:1–3 – The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of His being. • John 12:23–28 – Jesus speaks of His coming death as the hour of His glorification. • John 12:31–33 – Through the cross, Christ defeats the ruler of this world and draws people to Himself. • 2 Corinthians 4:6 – The glory of God is revealed in the face of Jesus Christ. ⸻ Takeaway Thought If we want to know the glory of God, we must look to Jesus Christ. In Him we see the Father’s holiness, grace, truth, mercy, authority, justice, and redeeming love. At the cross, divine glory is revealed not through human greatness, but through Christ’s humility, obedience, sacrifice, and victory. The risen and exalted Jesus remains the center of every true revelation of God’s glory. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree below.

Temporada 2

The Voice of God – “Today, If You Hear His Voice”

Awakened to Deliver — The Presence and Reality of God Week 34 — The Voice of God Day 5 – “Today, If You Hear His Voice” ⸻ Episode Highlights • God speaks through His Word not merely to inform us but to call us to faith, repentance, obedience, and perseverance. • Israel's failure in the wilderness reminds us that hearing God's voice without responding in faith leads to a hardened heart. • Sin is deceitful, continually tempting us to delay repentance, justify compromise, and resist God's truth. • James warns that hearing God's Word without obeying it is self-deception. Scripture is a mirror meant to expose and transform us. • Jesus taught that the wise person hears His words and obeys them, building a life on the solid foundation of Christ. • The goal of the Christian life is not simply hearing from God but faithfully following Jesus in obedience to what He has already revealed. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • Hebrews 3:7–13 – "Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts." • Psalm 95:7–11 – The original warning against hardening the heart before God. • James 1:22–25 – Be doers of the Word, not hearers only. • Matthew 7:24–27 – The wise builder hears Christ's words and puts them into practice. • John 10:27–28 – Christ's sheep hear His voice and follow Him. • 2 Timothy 3:16–17 – Scripture equips God's people for every good work. ⸻ Takeaway Thought God has already spoken clearly through His Son and through His Word. The question is not simply whether we can hear His voice, but whether we are willing to obey it. Every encounter with Scripture calls for a response. Rather than delaying repentance or resisting conviction, believers are called to respond today with humble faith, trusting Christ and following wherever the Good Shepherd leads. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree below.

The Voice of God – Led by the Spirit of God

Awakened to Deliver — The Presence and Reality of God Week 34 — The Voice of God Day 4 – Led by the Spirit of God ⸻ Episode Highlights • The Holy Spirit actively leads every believer, but His leading always agrees with the truth of Scripture and glorifies Jesus Christ. • Jesus described the Holy Spirit as the Spirit of truth, whose ministry points people to Christ rather than to Himself. • In Romans 8, being led by the Spirit primarily refers to putting sin to death and walking in obedience, not receiving secret information about every decision in life. • The Holy Spirit convicts believers of sin, strengthens them to resist the flesh, assures them of their adoption as God's children, and produces Christlike character. • The fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—is one of the clearest evidences of His work. • When Scripture gives clear commands, believers are called to obey. When Scripture does not provide a specific answer, God invites us to seek wisdom through prayer, biblical principles, godly counsel, and humble dependence upon Him. • Spirit-led living is not driven by fear of missing hidden messages from God but by faithfully walking with Christ in obedience and trusting the Father's guidance. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • John 16:13–15 – The Spirit of truth glorifies Christ and leads according to truth. • Romans 8:12–16 – Those led by the Spirit put sin to death and live as God's adopted children. • Galatians 5:16–25 – Walk by the Spirit and bear the fruit of Christlike character. • James 1:5 – God generously gives wisdom to those who ask Him. • Psalm 143:10 – Pray for God's Spirit to lead you in righteousness. • Proverbs 3:5–6 – Trust the Lord rather than your own understanding, and He will direct your paths. ⸻ Takeaway Thought The Holy Spirit does not lead believers away from Scripture or beyond Jesus Christ. His work is to convict us of sin, guide us into truth, produce Christlike character, and give wisdom as we seek to obey God. Rather than chasing hidden messages or extraordinary experiences, believers can walk confidently by remaining grounded in God's Word, asking Him for wisdom, and trusting the Spirit to faithfully shape them into the likeness of Christ. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree below.

The Voice of God – Testing Every Voice

Awakened to Deliver — The Presence and Reality of God Week 34 — The Voice of God Day 3 – Testing Every Voice ⸻ Episode Highlights • Scripture commands believers not to accept every spiritual claim blindly, but to test what claims to come from God. • Biblical discernment is not unbelief; it is obedience to God’s command to examine every spirit, message, teacher, and impression. • Every claim must be tested by what Scripture reveals about Jesus Christ, the Gospel, holiness, truth, and obedience. • Spiritual deception does not always appear obviously evil; it can sound religious, encouraging, powerful, or even use Christian language. • Believers should be especially cautious about saying “God told me” and must never give divine authority to personal thoughts, desires, or impressions without testing them. • Like the Bereans, Christians should receive teaching with readiness while carefully examining Scripture to determine whether what they hear is true. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • 1 John 4:1–4 – Test the spirits and examine what they confess about Jesus Christ. • 2 Corinthians 11:13–15 – Satan and false teachers can disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. • Acts 17:10–12 – The Bereans examined the Scriptures daily to test what they were being taught. • Isaiah 8:19–20 – God’s people are called back to His revealed Word rather than counterfeit spiritual guidance. • Deuteronomy 18:10–12 – God forbids occult practices and false sources of spiritual guidance. • 1 Thessalonians 5:20–22 – Test everything, hold firmly to what is good, and reject evil. ⸻ Takeaway Thought Not everything that sounds spiritual comes from God. Believers are called to test every teaching, impression, experience, and spiritual claim by the truth God has already revealed in Scripture. Our safety is not found in chasing the supernatural, but in remaining close to Jesus Christ, grounded in His Word, and humbly submitting every voice—including our own—to His truth. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree below.

The Voice of God – Hearing the Shepherd’s Voice

Awakened to Deliver — The Presence and Reality of God Week 34 — The Voice of God Day 2 – Hearing the Shepherd’s Voice ⸻ Episode Highlights • Jesus describes His people as sheep who know His voice, are known by Him, and follow Him. • Hearing the Shepherd’s voice is rooted in belonging to Jesus Christ and responding to Him in faith and obedience. • The Good Shepherd laid down His life for His sheep, so His voice is the voice of the Savior who gave Himself for us. • Recognizing God’s voice is not about chasing mystical experiences or trusting every impression, feeling, or internal thought. • Believers grow in discernment as the Word of Christ dwells richly within them and shapes the way they think and live. • The real test of hearing God is not whether we receive something dramatic, but whether we obey what He has already revealed in Scripture. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • John 10:1–5 – The sheep know the shepherd’s voice and follow him. • John 10:11, 14–15 – Jesus is the Good Shepherd who knows His sheep and lays down His life for them. • John 10:27–30 – Christ’s sheep hear His voice, are known by Him, and follow Him. • Colossians 3:16 – Let the Word of Christ dwell richly within you. • Psalm 95:6–8 – God’s people are His sheep and are warned not to harden their hearts when they hear His voice. • Hebrews 3:15 – Hearing God’s voice should lead to a soft and obedient heart. ⸻ Takeaway Thought Knowing the Shepherd’s voice is not about constantly searching for a new or dramatic experience. It grows from belonging to Jesus Christ, becoming deeply grounded in His Word, and learning to trust and obey what He has already revealed. The Good Shepherd knows His sheep, gave His life for them, and faithfully leads those who follow Him. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree below.

The Voice of God – God Has Spoken

Awakened to Deliver — The Presence and Reality of God Week 34 — The Voice of God Day 1 – God Has Spoken ⸻ Episode Highlights • God is not silent, distant, or unknowable; throughout Scripture He reveals His character, will, promises, and redemptive purposes. • God spoke in many ways through the prophets, but His fullest and climactic revelation is found in Jesus Christ. • Jesus is not merely another messenger from God; He is the eternal Son, the radiance of God’s glory, and the One who makes the Father known. • Scripture is God-breathed and serves as the authoritative standard for teaching, correction, righteousness, and discernment. • Feelings, impressions, experiences, and teachers can be mistaken, but God’s written Word remains the foundation for testing every claim about hearing from Him. • The starting point for recognizing God’s voice is not chasing signs or new experiences, but receiving what He has already revealed in Christ and Scripture with humility and faith. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • Hebrews 1:1–3 – God has spoken most fully through His Son. • John 1:1–5, 14 – The eternal Word became flesh and dwelt among us. • 2 Timothy 3:16–17 – All Scripture is God-breathed and equips believers for every good work. • John 1:18 – Jesus makes the Father known. • John 10:27 – Christ’s sheep hear His voice and follow Him. • Psalm 119:105 – God’s Word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. ⸻ Takeaway Thought Before asking how God speaks today, we must begin with what He has already spoken. God has revealed Himself most fully in Jesus Christ and has given us His written Word as the authoritative standard for truth and discernment. The safest way to recognize His voice is to know Christ deeply, remain grounded in Scripture, and receive what God has already said with humility and obedience. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree below.

The Nearness of God — The Lord Is Near

Awakened to Deliver — The Presence and Reality of God Week 33 — The Nearness of God Day 5 – The Lord Is Near ⸻ Episode Highlights • The nearness of Christ’s return should shape the way believers live with patience, holiness, faithfulness, and hope. • Scripture calls believers to establish their hearts and remain faithful while waiting for the coming of the Lord. • Readiness for Christ’s return is not panic or speculation, but daily obedience and perseverance. • The return of Jesus reminds believers that evil, suffering, injustice, and death will not have the final word. • God’s redeemed people will one day dwell openly in His presence, where every tear is wiped away and the curse is gone. • For those who belong to Christ, the nearness of the Lord brings both comfort for today and hope for eternity. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • Philippians 4:5 – The Lord is at hand. • James 5:7–9 – Be patient and establish your hearts, because the coming of the Lord is near. • Revelation 21:1–4 – God will dwell with His people and remove death, mourning, crying, and pain. • Revelation 22:3–5 – The curse will be gone, and God’s servants will see His face. • 2 Peter 3:13–14 – Believers look forward to a new creation and are called to live faithfully while waiting. • Titus 2:11–13 – God’s grace teaches us to live godly lives while awaiting the blessed hope of Christ’s appearing. ⸻ Takeaway Thought The Lord is near, and Jesus Christ is coming again. That truth should not lead believers into fear or endless speculation, but into patient, holy, and faithful living. No matter how difficult the present season may be, suffering, death, and evil are temporary. Those who belong to Christ have the certain hope of seeing Him face to face and dwelling forever in the presence of God. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree below.

The Nearness of God – Near to the Brokenhearted

Awakened to Deliver — The Presence and Reality of God Week 33 — The Nearness of God Day 4 – Near to the Brokenhearted ⸻ Episode Highlights • God’s people are not promised freedom from grief, fear, anxiety, or suffering, but they are promised His nearness in the midst of them. • Our emotions are real, but they are not the final authority for determining whether God is present. • The Lord hears the cries of His people and draws near to those who are brokenhearted and crushed in spirit. • Prayer gives believers a place to bring anxiety, fear, grief, and uncertainty before the God who cares for them. • God’s peace does not always remove difficult circumstances, but it guards the hearts and minds of those who bring their burdens to Him in Christ. • Jesus entered human suffering Himself, and through His death and resurrection He guarantees that sorrow will not have the final word. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • Psalm 34:17–18 – Yahweh hears His people and is near to the brokenhearted. • Psalm 145:18–19 – The Lord is near to those who call upon Him in truth. • Philippians 4:4–7 – Bring every anxiety to God in prayer and receive His guarding peace. • Hebrews 4:15–16 – Jesus understands our weakness and invites us to approach the throne of grace. • John 11:35 – Jesus Himself entered human grief and wept. • Revelation 21:3–4 – God will one day wipe away every tear and remove death, mourning, crying, and pain. ⸻ Takeaway Thought Brokenness is not evidence that God has abandoned you. When grief, fear, anxiety, or suffering make Him seem distant, faith returns to what He has spoken. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted, He hears those who call upon Him, and through Jesus Christ we can bring every burden before Him. His nearness does not guarantee an easy life, but it does mean that His people never suffer alone. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree below.

The Nearness of God – Draw Near to God

Awakened to Deliver — The Presence and Reality of God Week 33 — The Nearness of God Day 3 – Draw Near to God ⸻ Episode Highlights • Through Jesus Christ, the way to the Father has already been opened; drawing near is a response to grace, not an attempt to earn acceptance. • Biblical nearness involves humility, submission, repentance, sincere faith, and a willingness to obey God. • James connects drawing near to God with submitting to Him, resisting the devil, cleansing our actions, and purifying divided hearts. • Believers can approach God boldly because Jesus is our great High Priest and His blood has opened a new and living way. • Conviction should not drive believers into hiding but toward repentance, mercy, and restored fellowship with God. • Spiritual disciplines such as prayer, Scripture, worship, fasting, and obedience do not purchase access to God; they help us respond to the access Christ has already secured. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • James 4:6–10 – Submit to God, resist the devil, repent, and draw near to Him. • Hebrews 4:14–16 – Through Jesus our High Priest, we can boldly approach the throne of grace. • Hebrews 10:19–22 – The blood of Christ gives believers confidence to draw near with sincere faith. • Romans 8:1 – There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. • Titus 2:11–12 – God’s grace teaches believers to reject ungodliness and live faithfully. ⸻ Takeaway Thought Drawing near to God is not about making ourselves worthy enough to approach Him. Jesus Christ has already opened the way. Because of His blood, believers can come with both humility and confidence—submitting to God, repenting of sin, trusting His grace, and seeking fellowship with Him through sincere faith. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree below.

The Nearness of God – Brought Near Through Christ

Awakened to Deliver — The Presence and Reality of God Week 33 — The Nearness of God Day 2 – Brought Near Through Christ ⸻ Episode Highlights • God’s nearness does not mean every person automatically has peace or fellowship with Him; sin creates real relational separation. • The Gospel is the story of God coming near to sinners in Jesus Christ, not humanity finding a way to climb back to God. • Through His incarnation, Jesus revealed the Father and entered the world He created in order to save sinners. • Those who were once far from God are brought near through the blood of Christ, not through morality, religion, or human effort. • Jesus is our peace, reconciling believers to God and giving them access to the Father through the Holy Spirit. • Because Christ has opened the way, believers can draw near to God with confidence, repentance, reverence, and faith. ⸻ Scriptures to Reflect On • John 1:14 – The eternal Word became flesh and dwelt among us. • John 1:18 – Jesus makes the Father known. • Ephesians 2:12–13 – Those once far from God are brought near by the blood of Christ. • Ephesians 2:14–18 – Jesus is our peace and gives believers access to the Father. • Hebrews 10:19–22 – Through the blood of Jesus, believers can confidently draw near to God. • Romans 5:1–2 – Through Christ, believers have peace with God and access into grace. ⸻ Takeaway Thought We could never repair the separation sin created between us and God. But God came near to us in Jesus Christ. Through His blood, sinners who repent and believe are forgiven, reconciled, and given access to the Father. Our confidence before God does not rest on our spiritual performance, but on the finished work of Christ. ⸻ Stay Connected Grab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree below.
