VIRTUAL SERMON


SERMON NOTES:

Access the Spirit Realm

INTRO:

  • The Spirit Realm is Parent to the Physical Realm

  • How you access the spirit realm is by faith

  • Faith is the bridge from the spirit realm to the physical realm

Hebrews 11:1-3 - The Passion Translation

1 Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things we long for. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen. 

2 This testimony of faith is what previous generations  were commended for. 

3 Faith empowers us to see that the universe was created and beautifully coordinated  by the power of God’s words! He spoke and the invisible realm gave birth to all that is seen.

John 4:23-24 - The Passion Translation

23-24 From now on, worshiping the Father will not be a matter of the right place but with a right heart. For God is a Spirit,  and he longs to have sincere worshipers who adore him in the realm of the Spirit and in truth.”

  • There is a lot going on in the spirit (unseen) realm that we can not perceive with our senses

Your Words & Actions are both an expression of your faith.

  • So yes, guard your confessions from doubt, fear, and worry all these lead to a heart of unbelief.

Proverbs 18:21 - TPT

Your words are so powerful that they will kill or give life, and the talkative person will reap the consequences.

  • Don’t say things that go against what you are believing God for

  • Don’t say things that go against God’s word (that’s an expression of your faith

Romans 8:6-8 - TPT

6 For the sense and reason of the flesh is death, but the mind-set controlled by the Spirit finds life and peace.

7 In fact, the mind-set focused on the flesh fights God’s plan and refuses to submit to his direction,  because it cannot! 

8 For no matter how hard they try, God finds no pleasure with those who are controlled by the flesh.

  • Guard yourself from being more moved by your senses than what you believe (I believe God)

  • We weren’t trained to believe in things we can’t see, touch, smell, hear, taste

God’s word is what brings faith Not your senses 

Romans 10:17 - New King James Version

17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

John 8:32 - New King James Version

32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

  • People can’t believe unless they hear a (preacher) someone proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ

  • Yes, people read the bible and receive faith why?

    • They hear the Holy Spirit’s voice behind the verse that will lead and guide them

    • They are in tune to the Holy Spirit (still small voice)

    • My sheep hear my voice (John 10:27)

So reading God’s word, Hearing God’s Word being preached, and speaking in tongues are all keys to accessing the supernatural in one’s life

  • Miracles happen by faith in the supernatural spirit realm that is co-existing at the same time as the natural physical realm (Mark 9:23) (John 14:12)

It takes Faith to speak in tongues goes against reason and makes sense

  • To open your mouth, move your lips, activate your voice box to trust the Holy Spirit will give you utterance or words to say

1 Corinthians 14:1-4 - TPT

1 It is good that you are enthusiastic and passionate about spiritual gifts, especially prophecy.  

2 When someone speaks in tongues, no one understands a word he says, because he’s not speaking to people, but to God—he is speaking intimate mysteries in the Spirit.  

3 But when someone prophesies, he speaks to encourage people, to build them up, and to bring them comfort.  

4 The one who speaks in tongues advances his own spiritual progress,  while the one who prophesies builds up the church.

  • Good that you desire spiritual gifts including tongues (1 Corinthians 12 lists them)

  • Not speaking to men but to God (you have a hotline to God)

    • devil is spiritually dead can’t stop what you are praying

  • speaking mysteries/ wisdom in line with the perfect will of God

  • when we don’t know what or how to pray (Romans 8:26-27)

Ephesians 1:17-18 - New King James Version

17  that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, 

18  the eyes of your [a]understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,

  • accessing the spirit realm though God’s Word, preaching of God’s word, and tongues will give you access to the mind of Christ

    • revelation knowledge so you can see with your eyes of faith

    • Once you see it with your eyes of faith nothing will stop it from coming to pass
