Episode 07: The Kingdom, The Holy Spirit, and Angels, Part III – Testimonies & Angel Stories

Throughout the Bible, angels are used in mighty ways as God’s messengers. In fact, both the original Hebrew and Greek words for “angel” that are found in the Bible can be translated as “messenger.” In this episode of Tuesdays with Tina, I’m going to share one such message that was delivered personally to me by an angel and how it impacted our ministry.

During Part I and Part II of this series, I talked about God’s Kingdom and his Holy Spirit. Please take some time to catch up on those teachings since they lay the groundwork for talking about angels and the Lord’s purpose for them.

I feel led today to share a testimony of what God has been doing most recently in my life. I know many of us have felt spiritual oppression lately, some even in a physical sense. I pray that this message will release a refreshing of the Holy Spirit to you and will lift any burdens you may be carrying.

My prayer is that you will be not only be filled up, but that you would experience a perpetual spring of living water coming from within. Just like the image of the artesian well that flows continually by the pressure coming from above, may His living water become in us “a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life” by the Holy Spirit (John 4:14 NKJV).

Illustration of an Artesian Well in which water is under pressure from above causing the water to flow to the surface naturally, without a pump. Just like this well, Jesus promises us that the living water he gives us “will become in [us] a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.” John 4:14 NKJV

The prophetic word by Nate & Christy that I shared today can be found at their website: Christy’s A letter for the new breed – He has been UNTANGLING you in 2021. The books I referenced in this episode are Angels Are for Real: Inspiring, True Stories and Biblical Answers; Judith MacNutt and Encountering Angels: True Stories of How They Touch Our Lives Every Day; Judith MacNutt.

Follow along with me in worship using the lyrics below.

By the Blood of the Lamb
Words and Music by Brad Richardson

By the blood of the lamb
And the word of our testimony
We have overcome

And we love not our lives unto death
By his Spirit we enter His rest

For it’s not by might and it’s not by power, 
But by my Spirit says the Lord

And we stand in the armor of God
For the battle belongs to the Lord

Fill Me Up
Will Reagan

You provide the fire
And I’ll provide the sacrifice
You provide the Spirit
And I will open up inside

Fill me up God
Fill me up God
Fill me up God
Fill me up

Love of God overflow
Permeate all my soul

See you next week where we will hear more about God’s purposes for angels in His Creation, along with more stories!

Blessings,

Episode 06: The Kingdom, The Holy Spirit, and Angels, Part II

I hope you have had a chance this week to spend some time in John chapter 3, the story of Nicodemus and his encounter with Jesus. Nicodemus is a man who comes to Jesus with questions, ones that prompt Jesus to speak some of his most well-known words about the Kingdom, everlasting life and what it means to be “born again.”

This interaction is beautifully captured in a dialogue in the recent TV series, The Chosen, which is where we’ll start off today. This 10-minute scene imagines how this conversation may have happened between Nicodemus and Jesus. It’s a moving representation Jesus’ words from John 3.

When prompted in my video, please hit pause and click here to watch this powerful scene beginning at 35:27 –> https://youtu.be/5fldru4OUAo?t=2127

Nicodemus: “Is the Kingdom of God really coming?”

Jesus: “What does your heart tell you?”

Nicodemus: “My heart is swollen with fear and wonder and can tell me nothing except that I am standing on holy ground. (Kneeling, kissing Jesus’s hand, and quoting from Psalm 2): “Kiss the Son lest He be angry and you perish in the way….”

Jesus (raising Nicodemus to his feet and finishing the quotation): “…Blessed are all those who take refuge in Him.”

Dialogue from The Chosen

Is the Kingdom of God really coming?

Nicodemus from the TV series, The Chosen

In this episode I’ll also share a story of a time when we saw God’s Kingdom at work through healing, and how it brought so much more than physical restoration alone.

I hope you enjoy today’s episode. Now that we’ve laid a solid groundwork to understand God’s Kingdom and Holy Spirit, I’m really looking forward to next week when we will move on to learning more about angels and their role in His work on this Earth as it is in Heaven.

Worship Lyrics

Follow along in worship with me with the lyrics to “God I Look to You” below:

God I Look to You
Ian McIntosh | Jenn Johnson

God I look to You, I won’t be overwhelmed
Give me vision to see things like You do
God I look to You, You're where my help comes from
Give me wisdom, You know just what to do

And I will love You Lord my strength
And I will love You Lord my shield
And I will love You Lord my rock
Forever all my days I will love You God

Hallelujah our God reigns
Hallelujah our God reigns
Hallelujah our God reigns
Forever all my days Hallelujah

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.

Do you have an angel encounter story? Email me at [email protected].

Blessings,

Episode 04: The Secret Place, Part II

Do you want to live your life under God’s protection? Read Psalm 91 with me in this week’s episode of Tuesdays with Tina and hear about the incredible promises for us included in this scripture. And I’ll be sharing some personal stories of times when I saw the true power of these promises played out in my own life.

If you missed Part I of this teaching, you can get caught up by watching the video here. I also encourage you to follow along throughout the teaching in your own Bible and take notes.

We’ll start this week with my song “Secret Place,” which I introduced last week. If you would like to worship along with me you can view the words below.

SECRET PLACE
by Tina Wurschmidt | Download

Here I sit in that secret place
  resting in my Savior's arms
I'm broken yet I'm welcome by your grace
  you have overcome the dark

And we will fly like eagles
  and we will go to the Holy Place
And we will fly like eagles
  and see you face to face

I want to know you more
  even as I'm known
In the stillness before
  your holy throne

Holy, holy, holy
  Holy are You Lord (x2)

Here I sit in the secret place
  resting in my Savior's arms

I’m excited to announce that I will be starting a new 4-week series through the Advent season beginning next week. We will explore biblical accounts of angels and I will share stories from my own life and the lives of people I know who have had encounters with angels. I look forward to sharing these with you in the coming weeks.

Happy Thanksgiving! See you next Tuesday.

Episode 03: The Secret Place

It’s hard to find a Psalm more relevant to our day than Psalm 91. Written during a pandemic, this passage offers incredible encouragement for us today. In this episode of Tuesdays with Tina we will soak in the promises of God found in this Psalm, finding powerful assurances of his protection when fear and death surround us.

When we live our lives within the shadow of God Most High, our secret hiding place, we will always be shielded from harm.

Psalm 91:9-10 (TPT)

Just like an eagle spreads its wings over its nest to protect its young, the Lord protects us when we abide in His shadow. In this “secret place” we can decree the promises of God in worship through song or simply speaking his word out loud and further stir our faith and trust in Him.

This teaching wraps up with one of my new songs, Secret Place. I hope you will join me in worship. You can view the lyrics to the songs from this video below to follow along.

Lord Prepare Me
by Tina Wurschmidt

Lord prepare me to be a sanctuary 
  filled with the glory of God (x2)

Lord prepare me to be a sanctuary 
  within your heart, within Your heart (x2)

I wanna be one in You (x2)

Lord prepare me to be hidden in You
  resting in your arms (x2)

Lord prepare me as I’m hidden in You 
  sharing your goodness oh God (x2)

SECRET PLACE

Here I sit in that secret place
  resting in my Savior's arms
I'm broken yet I'm welcome by your grace

And we will fly like eagles
  and we will go to the Holy Place
And we will fly like eagles
  and see you face to face

I want to know you more
  even as I'm known
In the stillness before
  your holy throne

Holy, holy, holy
  Holy are You Lord (x2)

Here I sit in the secret place
  resting in my Savior's arms

Thank you so much for joining me today. We’ll wrap up Psalm 91 next week, and then will move on to an exciting new topic. Stay tuned!

In Him,

Episode 02: The Coming of the Bridegroom, Part II

Will you have your own oil? In this week’s episode we explore what that means within the parable of the ten virgins from Matthew 25:1-13. We’ll dig in verse-by-verse to uncover what the oil is, how we get it, and—ultimately—what we truly need to be prepared for the coming of the bridegroom.

I’ll also share a follow up story of my young granddaughter who prophesied about a wedding with Jesus. I was struck by the sobering truth she shared, pointing back to this story in such a powerful way.

The episode wraps up today with my song, Healing Oil. Turn on the closed captions to view the lyrics and please join me in worship from your home. You can also download a recording of this song from my album here.

I encourage you this week: get your own oil—that oil of intimacy with Jesus. May your lamps be full so that when Jesus comes back for his bride you are ready to enter into the wedding banquet.

In Him,

Episode 01: The Coming of the Bridegroom

It’s here! Today marks the first episode of Tuesdays with Tina, my new video series where I share scripture teachings, stories, and testimonies of God’s faithfulness. I am so excited to share today’s teaching with you based on the parable of the ten virgins in Matthew 25:1–13.

We’ll look at this passage together through the lens of the cultural time period to better understand where this parable is set, the context of the Jewish marriage covenant, and how it all points back to Jesus our heavenly bridegroom. I’ll also share some special stories of how this parable has impacted my own life and the lives of those around me.

Then suddenly, in the middle of the night, they were awakened by the shout ‘Get up! The bridegroom is here! Come out and have an encounter with him!’

Matthew 25:6 (TPT)

I hope this message blesses you and that you will take time this week to meditate on Matthew 25 verse by verse. We’ll dive in deeper to the parable of the wise and foolish virgins next week. Plus, I’ll be sharing a powerful song that the Lord gave me that brings the whole message together.

The book referenced in this episode is: The Midnight Cry: Prophetic Perceptions for 2018-2020, by Jon & Jolene Hamill.

Please subscribe and share, and I hope you’ll join me again next week!

In Him,

Matthew 25:1-14
The Passion Translation (TPT)

“When my coming draws near, heaven’s kingdom realm can be compared to ten maidens who took their oil lamps and went outside to meet the bridegroom and his bride.[a] 2–4 Five of them were foolish and ill-prepared, for they took no extra oil[b] for their lamps. Five of them were wise, for they took flasks of olive oil with their lamps. 5 When the bridegroom didn’t come when they expected, they all grew drowsy and fell asleep. 6 Then suddenly, in the middle of the night, they were awakened by the shout ‘Get up! The bridegroom is here! Come out and have an encounter with him!’[c] 7 So all the girls got up and trimmed their lamps. 8 But the foolish ones were running out of oil, so they said to the five wise ones, ‘Share your oil with us, because our lamps are going out!’

9 “ ‘We can’t,’ they replied. ‘We don’t have enough for all of us. You’ll have to go and buy some for yourselves!’

10 “While the five girls were out buying oil, the bridegroom appeared. Those who were ready and waiting were escorted inside with him and the wedding party to enjoy the feast. And then the door was locked. 11 Later, the five foolish girls came running up to the door and pleaded, ‘Lord, Lord, let us come in!’

12 “But he called back, ‘Go away! Do I know you? I can assure you, I don’t even know you!’

13 “That is the reason you should always stay awake and be alert, because you don’t know the day or the hour when the Bridegroom will appear.”[d]
parable of the ten virgins
