Revival Radio With Pastor John Miller

What comes to mind when you hear the word prophet? Maybe you picture an old man in a long robe or the person on the street corner with a sign yelling 'Repent!'. But as you'll hear in today's message from Pastor John, there are two different types of prophecy. Yes, there is future prediction prophecy, but the word also means to share the Word of God before others. You are prophesying when you comfort a friend with truth found in Scripture. This prophecy helps to build, stir and bind others up.Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 14 as he begins his message What About Spiritual Gifts? Prophecy or Tongues.

Love seeks the highest good of another person. Are you seeking the highest good for your spouse? Your children? Your friends?

You've likely heard Chapter Thirteen of First Corinthians before. Known as the 'Love Chapter,' it details how Christians are to love others. “Love is patient, love is kind...” But today in his teaching, Pastor John asks you to insert YOUR name in the place of love. Are you patient? Are you kind? Are you envious? As you realize that you aren't all those things, you may feel discouraged. But have hope. Try putting the name of Jesus in the text. Jesus IS patient. He IS kind. Ask Jesus to help make your heart become more like His.Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 13 as he begins his message, What About Spiritual Gifts?

Think of the many parts that make up your physical body. There's your hands, feet, eyes, and ears. Then, you have a brain, heart, liver, and lungs. The list goes on. It takes ALL of these unique parts working together in harmony for your body to function well. As you'll learn in today's message from Pastor John, the same is true of the body of Christ.

Some people struggle with understanding how and why God is a jealous God. Today, Pastor John uses the illustration of marriage to unpack this idea. If your spouse were flirting with or involved with another person, you'd be upset. It would hurt you because you love them, and they have pledged their loyalty and commitment to you. Similarly, Christians are considered the Bride of Christ. When you chase after idols and put things above the Lord, He's jealous. He rightly desires first place in your heart and your life.Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 10 as he continues his message, Principles of Christian Liberty.

Have you ever driven up a mountain with drastic drop-offs? It's terrifying to imagine going off the cliff.

Instead, aim to stay far away from the temptation to sin.Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 10 as he continues his message, Principles of Christian Liberty.

Today, in Pastor John's message, you'll hear about the mistakes the first generation of Israel made that led to them not entering the Promised Land.

How's your race going? You'll be encouraged in today's teaching from Pastor John to make it to the finish line. It's not so much about how you run the race; it's about how you finish it. You'll hear about Israel and how they started off well. God abundantly blessed them by freeing them from Egypt and guiding them through the wilderness. Yet somewhere along the way, they compromised.

The Apostle Paul was willing to adjust things about himself for the sake of whoever he was trying to reach for Christ. It's never okay to sin to get the Gospel out, but it is okay and even necessary at times to set aside your preferences in order to further your witness. Identify anything holding you back from reaching others and make some course corrections.Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 9 as he continues his message, Principles of Christian Liberty.

Is there an area of indulgence you need to give up for the sake of the Gospel? In today's message, Pastor John urges you not to let your lifestyle get in the way of you sharing Jesus with others. If there's something you're doing that's causing someone else to stumble and sin, it's time to cut that out of your life. Just because you have the liberty to do it doesn't mean it's good to do. As you listen to today's message, consider what's getting in the way of your witness and how you can eliminate it from your life.Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 9 as he continues his message, Principles of Christian Liberty.

In today's message, Pastor John teaches that love sets limits on Christian liberty. This means that although there are activities you're free in Christ to do, if something you're doing is causing someone else to sin, then it IS sinful to do. Think about your life. Are you being a stumbling block to someone? This could look like spending time in certain places, drinking alcohol, or the type of entertainment you're consuming. It may not be causing you to sin, but you shouldn't do it if it's causing your friend to sin.Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 8 as he continues his message, Principles of Christian Liberty.

The Bible doesn't give black-and-white instructions for handling every situation you'll encounter in life. There are a lot of gray areas that require you to use discernment and follow the Holy Spirit's leading. Today Pastor John warns of two extremes to avoid-- legalism and license. Instead, find balance in liberty controlled by love. This is what Paul taught the Corinthian Church, which was struggling with whether or not to eat meat that was offered to idols. As you deal with gray areas, make sure your motivation is love.Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 8 as he begins his message, Principles of Christian Liberty.
