Episode 05: The Kingdom, The Holy Spirit, and Angels, Part I

This week we’re diving into a new series on the topics of the Kingdom of God, the Holy Spirit, and angels. Those might sound like some heavy topics, but don’t worry–we’ll spend quality time in today’s episode laying out a Biblical foundation to it all.

Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?

Hebrews 1:14

But before we get to angels, it’s vital to understand the dominion of King Jesus—his Kingdom come—and what that looks like. We’ll see how the Holy Spirit plays an essential part in bringing his kingdom “on earth as it is in heaven.” And how the baptism of Jesus paints a beautiful picture of this when Father, Son and Holy Spirit all come together in communion.

Plus, I’ll also be sharing an unforgettable experience I had while ministering on the streets of Pittsburgh. You don’t want to miss this story of how the power of God fell when we focused on praising the Lord, and the fruit that came of it!

Today’s worship lyrics are below if you would like to follow along:

You Are So Good to Me
100 Portraits & Waterdeep

You are so good to me
You heal my broken heart
You are my father in Heaven

You are beautiful my sweet, sweet song
You are beautiful my sweet, sweet song
You are beautiful my sweet, sweet song
   And I will sing again

You ride upon the clouds
You lead me to the truth
You are the Spirit inside me

You are beautiful my sweet, sweet song
You are beautiful my sweet, sweet song
You are beautiful my sweet, sweet song
   And I will sing again

You are my strong melody, yeah
You are my dancing rhythm
You are my perfect rhyme
   And I will sing of You forever

You poured out all Your blood
You died upon the cross
You are my Jesus who loves me

You are my Father in Heaven
You are the Spirit inside me
You are my Jesus who loves me

In preparation for next week, please spend some time reading John chapter 3 about Nicodemus and his encounter with Christ. We’ll start there next time to dig in deep to the angelic realm.
