Partnering with the Holy Spirit - Janet, get your Purse Session 2

This sermon, the second in a series called "Janet Get Your Purse," calls believers to move beyond spiritual ignorance and into active, daily partnership with the Holy Spirit. Drawing from Paul's letters and the example of the early church, Pastor Rob emphasizes that God is a Spirit and must be worshiped and known on spiritual terms, not natural ones. The carnal mind, though common to all believers, is actively hostile to the things of God and must be submitted to the Spirit rather than allowed to rule. The sermon challenges the congregation to pursue deep, relational fellowship with the Holy Spirit, to stay in step with him in worship, prayer, and fasting, and to trust that God speaks to those who seek him with their whole heart. The sermon closes with a communion reflection on the resurrection power that dwells in every believer and the identity and authority that comes through union with Jesus.
