When we leave a spiritually uplifting meeting or conference on a high, having listened to inspired teaching messages and guidance - maybe after witnessing supernatural acts of God's divine healing or His miraculous intervention in needy lives - we can often feel confused and discouraged when we then experience less of God's power back home or in our church than we did in the conference meeting. Ian Andrews explains in this Christian teaching how God responds to us differently as we grow and mature as Christian people. The guidance provided in this sermon will be invaluable in teaching about God's ways so you do not become discouraged as you grow in spiritual maturity. When we were saved, we started our lives as spiritual babies; some of us have now grown into spiritual teenagers; a few of us will have grown sufficiently in maturity to become spiritual fathers. God, by His Holy Spirit, treats us differently in each of these spiritual stages of development. As we grow up like this we may feel that God is becoming more distant and His powerful presence and loving intervention in our lives more elusive. God wants us to know we have overcome the 'evil one', 'the devil' or satan and his demons. Ian Andrews provides just the inspired guidance needed for us to learn how to live in the same victory over the devil as Jesus Christ did. Times will come when seeking to get your needs met becomes a real 'Trial of Faith' and we can become disillusioned or discouraged and even doubt that God loves us like He did when we were spiritual babies. Ian Andrews helps us through this teaching to learn how to experience the abiding word of God that produces real results in the lives of those for whom we care and pray. In order to become mature responsible adults, it is necessary for us to receive clear guidance how to grow through the teenage stage, which may not seem pleasant at the time; the same is true in our Christian lives as God leads us by His Holy Spirit.

Abiding in God
What does it mean to 'abide in the vine'? How are we grafted in as a branch in God's vine so we are fruitful? When we abide in God, we realise our dependence on His loving grace and favour that gives us strength to win life's battles without being bitter.
God's = Gods
life's = life
Divine Healing - Healed by God
God brings divine healing to people in response to faith in Him, providing a holistic restoration of their body, soul and spirit. God will replace missing, damaged or surgically removed body parts if needed.
Doubt - Confusion & Double Minded
We all go through being double minded, where we want to believe what God's word in the Bible says is true about us but we have doubts. It is a normal part of the Christian walk to experience doubts on the way to effective faith in God. How does God get us from being double minded to a single minded faith in His word to us?
God's = Gods
Faith and Action Working Together
We are all given a measure of faith to trust in God's promises and receive from Him. Such faith is deposited in the renewed spirit saved by God and results in actions that God uses to bless other people.
God's = Gods
Feelings & Emotions
To feel for another person who we love or is suffering is part of being human. When our emotions run high with feelings of self-harm or hatred towards another person we have a problem.
Filled with Holy Spirit - Baptism in Holy Spirit
God fills you with the Holy Spirit to impart His wisdom, power and authority so we have the ability to fulfil the work God gave you; this is extra to the Holy Spirit living within you.
God the Holy Spirit - The Comforter
God communicates by His Holy Spirit that resides in and speaks through our human spirit. After salvation our spirit recognises God's voice.
God's = Gods
Goodness of God
God is a good God and His goodness only wants the best for us, His children. His goodness is pure and infinite in nature and shows no favouritism to anyone. Do you desire to know the goodness of God?
Jehovah Jireh - God Your Provider
God has many names in the Bible. Jehovah Jireh is the name of God that means 'God your provider.' God declares He is our provider, working with people and circumstances, to supply all our needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Power of Words - Speak to Your Mountain
Words have power to build up or tear down. Words also have spiritual power to invoke demons or God's angels to act either against us or for us.
God's = God & Gods
Prayer & Asking God - God Hears Us
Prayer is communication with God and listening to His response; prayer is essential to our worship of God. Prayer is also asking God for what you need. The word of God promises that the fervent prayer of the righteous person gets results.
Promises of God
All the promises of God are yes and amen in Christ Jesus. It is essential to know the promises in the Bible and how to put our faith in those promises so God can bless us and meet our needs.
Sacrifice of Jesus - Our Salvation
Jesus Christ paid the ultimate price of His life in exchange for yours. Faith in the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross has the power to save your spirit, mind and body.
Signs Following - Miracles & Wonders
Miracles and wonders are naturally impossible signs God does that follow those who believe in the saving power of Jesus sacrifice on the cross. What do we have to do to see signs following our Christian walk with God?
Sin & Wrong-Doing
Even the vilest offender has a conscience from God so they know when their thoughts, words or actions are sinful or wrong and will cause harm to themselves or other people.
Speaking in Diverse Tongues - Gift & Manifestation
The gift of speaking in different kinds of tongues is the God-given ability to communicate from your spirit using a language that has not been learned.
Spiritual Maturity - Christian Fathers
As God conforms us to Jesus Christ by His Holy Spirit, we grow in spiritual maturity until we reach the final stage of spiritual growth and become a spiritual father.
Spiritual Maturity - Teenage Christians
As God conforms us to Jesus Christ by His Holy Spirit we grow in spiritual maturity as a spiritual teenager where we overcome the devil by God's word.
God's = Gods
Spiritual Maturity - Young Christians
As God seeks to conform us to Jesus Christ by His Holy Spirit, we start our spiritual maturity as a spiritual baby where we simply know our sins are forgiven.
Testing of Your Faith - Trial of Faith
All of us want possessions so we do not lack anything in life, but are we prepared for the trials of faith God brings us through to receive this abundance from heaven?
Unbelief & Hard Hearted
Unbelief denies the validity of a belief or tenet even with clear evidence to the contrary that what is believed is true. This is not like doubt, where we are not sure what is true, or not knowing what is true.
Word of God - Rhema Word Specific to Your Need
God speaks to us through His spoken or rhema word to bring direct instruction and revelation that speaks to our heart and releases faith to receive from Him. A rhema word will always bring the power of God to set us free from the natural world.
Worship & Praise
Worship is the natural outpouring of hearts and minds to God when we become aware of His sovereignty and His awesome power and majesty with us.
