Jun 3, 2026

This radio clip explores the profound biblical principle of kenosis, or self-emptying, as demonstrated by Jesus Christ. Drawing from Philippians 2, Pastor Rob explains how Jesus, though divine, chose to empty himself and embrace servanthood, becoming obedient even to the point of death. This ultimate act of humility and submission serves as the blueprint for believers seeking to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Pastor Rob emphasizes that being filled with the Spirit requires a willingness to let go of self-centered desires and to fully surrender to God's will. He encourages listeners to embrace a life of yielding, highlighting that God desires to fill His people to overflowing with the Holy Spirit.
