    Living Under an Open Heaven. Jason Gratehouse. Ignite the Day EP34

    In this episode of Ignite The Day Podcast, Jason Gratehouse gives an inspiring exploration into what it means to live under an open heaven. Drawing from Luke 3 and powerful biblical stories like the feeding of the 5,000 and the woman with the issue of blood, Jason unpacks how the heavens were opened when Jesus was baptized—and how that access to the supernatural remains open for believers today.You’ll discover what an "open heaven" really is, how to move beyond the limitations of the world and your senses, and how faith empowers you to lay hold of God’s resources—wisdom, healing, provision, and more. Jason breaks down the two operations of living in the Spirit (being led by the Spirit, and reaching out to move the Spirit yourself), sharing how miracles often begin not just with supernatural manifestations, but when we actively put a demand on what God has made available to us.Toby wraps up the episode by drawing a beautiful parallel between the Father’s love and parenting, reminding listeners that God’s provision and comfort are always available—sometimes we just need to open the fridge door!If you are ready to break out of limitation, walk in faith, and step into all God has for you, this episode is packed with encouragement and practical steps to activate the open heaven over your life.Timestamps / Chapters: 00:00 - What does it mean to live under an open heaven? 01:28 - Resources beyond ourselves: Breaking limitations 02:40 - Addressing need versus walking by faith 04:12 - Faith acknowledges facts but isn’t limited by them 06:26 - Two distinct operations: Being led by the Spirit and moving the Spirit 09:14 - Access versus possession: Tesco analogy and stepping in 11:10 - Mary at Cana: Putting a demand on miracles 14:13 - Jesus and the woman caught in adultery: Waiting for wisdom 17:02 - The woman with the issue of blood: Pressing in for healing 19:40 - Wisdom and provision are right there—how to take hold of them 22:23 - Corporate prayer: Reaching into the open heaven 24:10 - Receiving from an open heaven; Praise as the language of faith 25:44 - Toby’s reflection: God as provider and comforter, story of parenting 27:27 - Expectation, provision, and our relationship with the Father 29:21 - How to let God’s love and provision flow through youKeywords: open heaven, faith, walking by faith, Holy Spirit, miracles, provision, spiritual resources, wisdom, healing, Jesus, biblical miracles, supernatural, access to God, Spirit-led life, overcoming limitations, demand on heaven, living in the Spirit, RHEMA UK and Ireland, Ignite The Day Podcast, Toby Avery, Jason Gratehouse, parenting and God, testimony, praise, believer’s authority.Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share if this blessed you!

    Can Intimacy With Jesus Change Everything? Jason Gratehouse. Ignite the Day EP33

    In this episode of Ignite The Day Podcast, Jason shares a powerful message on life in the spirit and what it truly means to live out your faith with intimacy and boldness. Drawing inspiration from Andrew Murray’s teachings on waiting on God, Jason explores how our fast-paced culture often prevents us from cultivating deep spiritual connection. He discusses why intimacy with Jesus matters more than simply knowing doctrine or dogma, highlighting how closeness to the person of Christ transforms our character, increases tenderness, and ultimately shapes how we impact the world.Jason uses vivid examples, including stories about obedience in giving, the challenge of spiritual immediacy, and the difference between religious knowledge and genuine relationship. He dives deep into the Gospel’s core truth: Jesus came to reset our identity and restore us to our rightful place as people made in God’s image. If you’ve ever wondered about the real potential God has placed within you, or how to walk in authentic spiritual authority and power, this episode delivers clarity and encouragement.You’ll hear practical takeaways on spiritual growth, understanding your identity, and living under an open heaven. There are also stories and personal moments about learning from Jesus’ example, the importance of giving, and what it means to truly reflect Christ in our everyday lives.Key Chapters: 00:00 - Opening Prayer & Worship 04:01 - Lessons on Waiting on God and Spiritual Immediacy 06:01 - Intimacy vs. Secondhand Faith 08:53 - Living Out of Intimacy, Not Argument 09:47 - Being Changed by Time with Jesus 11:13 - Obedience in Giving: Story from Brother Hagin 14:00 - The Heart Behind Generosity 15:27 - How God Uses Giving to Grow You 16:27 - Life in the Spirit: Luke Chapter 3 18:48 - Jesus as Example: Dependence on the Spirit 19:22 - Doing Greater Works, Walking in Authority 22:09 - The Enemy’s Strategy: Blind Minds & False Identity 24:04 - Why Jesus Came: Restoring Your True Identity 28:05 - Resetting the Standard Through Christ 31:01 - Living Under an Open HeavenWhether you’re a RHEMA UK and Ireland Bible College student, alum, supporter, or simply hungry to grow in your journey with Jesus, this episode will ignite your day and inspire your walk.Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more faith-filled conversations from Ignite The Day Podcast!
