    Knowing the Voice of the Holy Spirit | Pastor Verna DeHart

    Knowing the Voice of the Holy Spirit | Walking in the Spirit (2) How can we recognize the voice of the Holy Spirit in a world filled with competing voices, distractions, fear, and deception? In this powerful message from the series Walking in the Spirit: Living Free from Deception in the Last Days, we are reminded that the Shepherd is still speaking, and as His sheep, we can learn to recognize His voice. Jesus said, “My sheep know My voice.” The goal isn't simply to hear God occasionally in moments of crisis. The Holy Spirit desires to become the familiar voice we walk with every day. This message explores four foundational truths about knowing and following the voice of the Holy Spirit: 1. The Shepherd Is Still SpeakingGod has not stopped speaking. As we stay close to Him, His voice becomes familiar, His peace becomes recognizable, and His leading becomes clearer. 2. The Holy Spirit's Voice Always Agrees with God's Word and Reveals JesusThe Holy Spirit will never contradict the truth of Scripture. His voice leads us toward Jesus, produces Christlike character, increases our love for God's Word, and calls us into greater obedience and humility. 3. Recognition Grows Through RelationshipLike Samuel, we learn to recognize God's voice through relationship and intimacy. The more time we spend with the One who is speaking, the more familiar His voice becomes, and the easier it is to recognize and reject the voices of fear, pride, and the world. 4. The Blessing Comes Through ObedienceHearing God's voice is not the finish line. The proof that we've heard God's voice is found in our willingness to follow and obey what He says. This message challenges us to move beyond simply asking, “How can I hear God more clearly?” and begin asking, “How can I spend more time with the One who is speaking?” Because intimacy with God produces clarity in hearing God. 📖 Key Scriptures:Deuteronomy 28:1–2John 10:1–5John 16:13–151 Samuel 3:8–10John 10:27 💬 Key Takeaway:“The proof that we've heard God's voice is found in our obedience.” 🙏 Prayer:“Lord, help me stay close enough to You to recognize Your voice. Teach me to know Your Word, discern Your leading, and follow You in obedience. Let my mind, words, emotions, finances, and mission be governed by Your truth and peace.” 🎙️ Sermon Series: Walking in the Spirit (2) – Living Free from Deception in the Last Days🎧 Sermon Title: Knowing the Voice of the Holy Spirit📅 Date: Wednesday, August 19, 2026 Soul Harvest Worship CenterHosting His Presence and Revealing Christ. #KnowingTheVoiceOfTheHolySpirit #WalkingInTheSpirit #HolySpirit #HearingGod #GodsVoice #HolySpiritLeading #ChristianPodcast #BibleTeaching #John10 #Faith #Obedience #SpiritualDiscernment #Jesus #SoulHarvestWorshipCenter

    In Position | Pastor Simone Benoit

    In Position | Pastor Simone Benoit What if the disruption you're experiencing isn't a setback, but God's way of positioning you for what He wants to do next? In this powerful message, Pastor Simone Benoit teaches us that God is aligning our hearts, minds, desires, decisions, and direction so that we can be in position for His purpose. Through the journey of Joseph, we discover that God doesn't simply prepare a position for us, He prepares us for the position. Sometimes that preparation involves divine adjustments, unexpected transitions, uncomfortable seasons, and places we never planned to be. Joseph's journey took him from his father's house → the pit → Egypt → Potiphar's house → prison → the palace.What looked like setbacks were actually steps in God's positioning. This message reminds us: • God aligns you before He aligns things around you.Before God changes your circumstances, He may first change you. • Divine alignment requires divine adjustment.We cannot ask God to align us with His will while resisting every adjustment He makes in our lives. • Sometimes God has to move you to position you.You may not understand where you are until the moment arrives that requires what God has developed in you. • Don't confuse alignment with comfort.Being in God's will doesn't mean there won't be difficulty. Alignment means having confidence in the One directing you through it. • Alignment requires obedience.Knowing God's Word is not the same as living God's Word. Sometimes we don't need another word—we need to move on the Word God has already given us. Joseph's story ultimately reminds us that God can take what was meant for evil and use it for good. What looks like a detour may actually be divine positioning for a greater purpose. 📖 Key Scriptures:Proverbs 3:5–6Genesis 37:5–8Romans 12:2Genesis 39:7–12Genesis 39:20–23Psalm 23:3–4James 1:22Genesis 50:20 🎙️ Speaker: Pastor Simone Benoit📅 Date: Wednesday, August 12, 2026🎧 Sermon Title: In Position Key Takeaway:“I'd rather be uncomfortable in God's will than comfortable somewhere He never called me to be.” Take a moment to ask yourself: What is God adjusting in me so He can position me for what He has next? Listen, be encouraged, and trust the process. God knows where He's taking you—and He is positioning you for His purpose.

    Dry Bones into a Dynamic Army | Bishop Ostine Paul

    Dry Bones into a Dynamic Army | Bishop Ostine Paul What looks dead, defeated, and beyond repair is not beyond the power of God. In this powerful message, Bishop Ostine Paul takes us through Ezekiel 37 and the vision of the dry bones, revealing how God can breathe life into situations that have experienced long-term defeat, brokenness, and hopelessness. The message reminds us that the length of the problem does not limit the strength of God’s power. What seems irreparable can become repairable. What appears irreversible can become reversible. And what looks lifeless can become a powerful army when the breath of God enters it. Bishop Ostine Paul shares four powerful truths: 1. Breakthrough Begins in BrokennessBrokenness is not the end—it can be the prerequisite for breakthrough. 2. Irreparable Becomes RepairableGod can restore what appears abandoned, damaged, and beyond repair. 3. Irreversible Becomes ReversibleThe Word of God and the power of the Holy Spirit can change what seems impossible to change. 4. Resistible Becomes IrresistibleWhen the breath of God enters what was once dead, it becomes a dynamic army empowered by His Spirit. Your situation may have been dry for a long time, but old problems can encounter new power. God is still able to restore, revive, rebuild, and breathe new life into what appears hopeless. The dry bones were not the end of the story. And your situation is not the end of your story either. 📖 Key Scripture: Ezekiel 37:2, 10 🎙️ Speaker: Bishop Ostine Paul📅 Date: Sunday, August 16, 2026🎧 Sermon Title: Dry Bones into a Dynamic Army Listen, be encouraged, and allow God to breathe fresh life into every area that has become dry.

    John The Baptist - Point People to Jesus | Pastor Verna DeHart

    John the Baptist – Point People to Jesus What does it mean to faithfully fulfill your God-given assignment? In this powerful message from the Heroes and Great Stories of the Bible series, we look at the life of John the Baptist, a servant who understood that his purpose was never about gaining recognition, but about preparing the way for Jesus. John’s life teaches us that God prepares His servants before He presents them, and that hidden seasons are not wasted seasons. They are opportunities for God to strengthen our spirit, shape our character, and prepare us for the assignment ahead. We also discover what it means to be a true hero of faith: to speak the truth with courage, walk in humility, and point people to Christ rather than ourselves. John boldly proclaimed the truth, called people to repentance, and continually directed attention toward Jesus. His declaration, “He must increase, but I must decrease,” captures the heart of a life fully surrendered to God. This message challenges us to silence the voice of the flesh and listen to the voice of the Spirit, to choose faithfulness over recognition, obedience over compromise, and God’s approval over the applause of people. As you listen, ask yourself: Is my life pointing people to Jesus? This week, look for opportunities to encourage someone with Scripture, share your testimony, pray for someone, and demonstrate the love of Christ through your actions. Like John the Baptist, you may be the voice God uses to prepare someone’s heart to receive Jesus. You were not called to make your name great, you were called to make Jesus known. 🎙️ Listen, be encouraged, and discover how your life can point people to Jesus.

    The Battle Within - Walking in the Spirit or the Flesh? Pastor Verna DeHart

    Walking in the Spirit (Part 1)Living Free from Deception in the Last DaysThe Battle Within: Walking in the Spirit or the Flesh? Every believer faces a battle within, the ongoing tension between the desires of the flesh and the leading of the Holy Spirit. The question is not whether the battle exists, but which voice will we choose to follow? In this powerful opening message of the Walking in the Spirit series, we explore how the flesh and the Holy Spirit produce two very different paths. What we continually surrender to will shape our thoughts, our character, our decisions, and ultimately the direction of our lives. Through Galatians 5 and practical teaching, this message challenges us to recognize the subtle ways the flesh can lead us toward pride, offense, anger, selfishness, deception, and spiritual hardness, while the Holy Spirit produces the character of Christ within us. You'll discover: Why every believer experiences a daily battle between the flesh and the Spirit. How the flesh can gradually lead to self-deception and spiritual destruction. Why humility and a teachable heart are powerful protections against deception. How the Holy Spirit produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Why we shouldn't simply ask God to change our behavior, but surrender our hearts so He can transform us from the inside out. How to recognize the voice of the flesh versus the voice of the Spirit. Why healthy believers welcome the Holy Spirit's conviction because conviction leads to freedom. The goal isn't simply to try harder to become more spiritual. It is to surrender deeper, abide in Christ, listen for the Holy Spirit's voice, and allow God's presence to produce His fruit in our lives. As we begin this series, the challenge is simple: Don't be led by your feelings.Don't be controlled by your flesh.Don't believe every voice you hear.Walk in the Spirit. Key Scripture:📖 Galatians 5:19–23📖 Isaiah 40:4–5 Offering-Battle Seed Scripture: Isaiah 40:4–5 (AMPC) As we faithfully prepare the way for the Lord through obedience, generosity, and a surrendered life, we make room for God to straighten what is crooked, remove obstacles, and reveal His glory through us. If this message challenges or encourages you, share it with someone who needs to grow in spiritual discernment and freedom.
