What the Spirit of Christ does

What the Spirit of Jesus Christ does

How to access and experience the work of the Spirit of Christ

How to access and experience the Spirit of Jesus Christ.

You’re going to discover that there is more to these titles of the Holy Spirit, and we have covered in a previous episode ( link to previous episode), what you know, the Spirit of Christ is and what the Spirit of Jesus Christ is. Please feel free to refer to those episodes if you need to do so. We are focusing on the work, the acts. How do we as believers access the work of the Holy Spirit, as the Spirit of Christ, as the Spirit of Jesus Christ?

Let's begin by reading our theme scripture again as we bring this to an end,

Acts 19:1-2. "And it happened that while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the inward country and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples, and he asked, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed? And they said, “No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”

Dear friend, these were believers and they loved Jesus, and they didn't know that there was a Holy Spirit. This is our desire that we equip you, that you get to thrive in The Holy Spirit and His power, so then you can access all the work that the Holy Spirit will do, can do, wants to do in your life, and then what He will do through you.

Let's jump right in

The Spirit of Jesus Christ.

The Spirit of Jesus Christ demonstrates and supplies the life, the power, the promises, and the finished work of Christ. I want you to put that in your spirit. The Spirit of Christ demonstrates, displaces, expresses and supplies the life, the power, the promises, and the finished work of Christ. Philippians 1:19

For I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayers and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ.

You see here, specifically, Paul talks about how his deliverance is going to come about. It is coming about through the prayers. But this is what I want you to note, and he said, “Through your prayers and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ.”

The Spirit of Jesus Christ focuses on demonstrating, on supplying, on releasing, manifesting the life, the power, the presence, the nature, the character, and everything that has got to do with that title Jesus Christ. With Jesus Christ. This is His specific assignment, the specific work or activity of the Spirit of Jesus Christ. Remember, this is the Holy Spirit that is operating specifically for this reason and for this purpose, to reveal Christ into our lives. That's why, dear friend, as we get to know the Holy Spirit, we get to understand that the He has all these titles link to different activities and different acts and works that He will do in you and through you and for you. He wants to reveal Jesus Christ in your life. He wants to reveal the power of Jesus Christ. He wants to reveal the life, the finished work, everything that Jesus has done for us, for all humanity. He wants to bring that into our lives, into our reality, into our space, our time, our position, our daily experience.

I want to give you some practical applications. Do you know how you know this? When I first discovered this, I was just meditating on the word of God in prayer and the Holy Spirit said, “Ask me to demonstrate the power of the blood.”

This is application number one. The spirit of Jesus Christ demonstrates the power of the blood of Jesus.

I remember in that spiritual battle that I was involved in prayer. I remember that it's like I had reached the end of myself, and I'm calling out to God. I say, “Okay, Lord, what do I need to do? Show me how to pray. I do not know how to pray.” I remember the Holy Spirit speaking to me, and He said, “Remember? I am the Spirit of Jesus Christ, and I take what is of Jesus Christ and show you how to use it. I fight for you. I'm going to demonstrate and I'm going to release.”

Then I sat back, and I said,

“Okay, Holy Spirit, I know you are the Spirit of Jesus Christ. You supply the life and the power of Jesus Christ. Supply, release and demonstrate the power of the blood of Jesus in my life right now, the power of God.”

Dear friend, even as you listen, as you watch, the power of God began to fall. Even right now, as I feel it, the Spirit of Jesus Christ takes the blood of Jesus and makes it real to you and me. He makes it real, but He fights with it. The Spirit of Jesus Christ takes the blood of Jesus. I said,

“Spirit of Jesus Christ, release the power of the blood in me. Release the power of the blood against my enemy, against the satanic attacks against the evil one”

The power of the blood of Jesus Christ. I began to receive, and it felt like waves of power going through me. Do you remember? I have taught you and I have written in Catch and Release God's Supernatural that the Spirit answers the blood. Wherever the Spirit of God, the blood of Jesus is mentioned, the Spirit of God comes to work. When you connect the Spirit of Jesus Christ and the blood of Jesus Christ, dear friend, you are in for supernatural demonstration and manifestation of God's miraculous like you have never seen before. I asked The Spirit of Jesus Christ to release the power of the blood into my body, release the power of the blood into my health, into my bones, into my sinews. I asked Him to release the power of the blood, demonstrate the power of the blood. I asked Him to show me what it means to walk in the power of the blood, to experience the power of the blood, the anointing in the blood, and everything that is in the blood. Dear friend, I have come to know the power of the blood because of the Spirit of Jesus Christ. The Spirit of Jesus Christ takes the blood of Jesus, and He begins to fight with it on your behalf, but you must know that, and you need to engage him.

Jesus said that The Spirit of God is in you, with you and upon you, and the upon is the anointing. The “in” is the indwelling presence and the “with you” part is the fellowship, the coming alongside you. He comes alongside you. That's why the Bible calls him the Paraclete from the Greek, the one who comes alongside. He's alongside to help you fight with the blood.

You don't have to be an expert in the Bible. The Holy Spirit is, by the way, the author of the Bible. When we know that He's The Spirit of Jesus Christ, and He knows everything about Jesus, He will take everything that Jesus has, Jesus desires and wants to do in our lives and through us, and He begins to implement that. He begins to bring the vision, the passion, the compassion of Jesus Christ. Then He begins to release it in our lives, in an all-new way. Suddenly, we become alive. We become the body of Christ. We are the body of Christ because we carry Jesus within us. We carry Jesus within us. We carry His power, His DNA, His identity, His likeness. But how do we really begin to talk like Him, and act like Him? Part of what brings us into that is the work of the Holy Spirit, specifically as the Spirit of Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! Are you getting it, friend? That is application one.

Speaker 2: (11:47) I mean, I, this I'm just giving you an example. I'm going give you another example. I want you to, you know, make a list of the things and the, the, the keys of the kingdom and all the things about Christ. And you are going to find that when you begin to get the spirit of Jesus Christ involved in those things, in those areas.

The other application I'll show you is the name of Jesus Christ.

Application number two: is The Spirit of Jesus Christ demonstrates the power, the anointing, the authority of the name of Jesus.

He makes it real. He begins to demonstrate the power of that name. I've heard people say, “Well, I have tried to cast out demons in the name of Jesus and nothing happened.”

“Well, then you can ask the Spirit of Jesus Christ to release the power of His name through you, the power to reveal that to you.”

What does that look like? What is that power, dear friend? You don't have to just accumulate intellectual knowledge about the name, but you need experiential knowledge. You need experiential knowledge that the Spirit of Jesus Christ will impart to you regarding Jesus Christ. He's the one, He preaches Jesus Christ better than anybody I know, because he's the Spirit of Jesus Christ. And He can reveal Jesus Christ. He can preach Him, and he can demonstrate and display, internally and externally, who Jesus Christ is and what He does. Dear friend, those are the ways that I want you to begin to ask the Spirit of Jesus Christ to release the nature of Jesus Christ, the name of Jesus Christ, the blood of Jesus and the authority that Jesus has given you. The Spirit of Jesus Christ will bring you into that reality.

Dear friend, put that in your spirit. Let's talk about the Spirit of Christ. That's another title that we are going to cover today. The Spirit of Christ. What does the Spirit of Christ do? The Spirit of Christ demonstrates and supplies the life, the promises, the power of the anointing of Christ. This is a spirit of Christ because He's about Christ. Did you get that? Christ is not Jesus' last name. Christ simply means the anointed one, the promised one. The Spirit of Christ demonstrates our identity, our place, our position, and our belonging in Christ. He demonstrates that in us. He brings us into that experience of our position, our function in Christ.

Remember we were talking about a minute ago about the Spirit of Jesus Christ.

Now, this is the Spirit of Christ. Why Christ? Because this one specifically talks about the Anointed One, bringing about the anointing of Christ. Who is this Anointed one? This Anointed one, the Spirit of the Anointed one will show us, will demonstrate the anointing, of the Anointed One. Does that make sense? The Spirit of the Anointed one will demonstrate the power, the life of the Anointed one. When you study the Bible, the titles of Jesus cannot change all His names. Some places He's called Jesus Christ. In other places He is called Christ Jesus. Why? When the anointing came after He was baptized by John, and this Holy Spirit came upon him, when you read in your Bible, you'll find that He was no longer Jesus, the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world. Now, He's also the Anointed One, because now He was anointed. And from that moment after the anointing came upon him, He began to do the ministry of healing the sick and casting out demons. Prior to the anointing, He did not do that. He was simply the Lamb that takes away the sin of the world.

Amen?

The Spirit of Christ deals with the anointing of Christ. If you want to know the anointing of Christ, or you want to walk in the anointing of Christ, you want to access that anointing. You need to engage the Spirit of Christ. Ask the Spirit of Christ to release the anointing of Christ in you. Spirit of Christ, release the anointing, the power of Christ. We see that when Christ was anointed, He began to heal the sick, He began to cast out demons. That's part of what the Spirit of Christ specifically will do for us, in us, and through us. This didn't just end with Jesus and these titles just being there in the Bible for informational purposes. They are for us to access and to apply the resources of the power that Christ has given us, the freedom that we have through the anointing and the deliverance we have through the anointing. We are anointed in Christ because He's the Anointed One who can bring us into this very anointing.

The Spirit of Christ who can bring us into that position, into that function. Into that place of belonging where we are anointed, saturated in Christ. We are grounded in Christ. I've preached a message entitled, Christ in Us. The Anointed One is in us, and then another message is in Christ. Being in Christ means we are in Christ. This means that as Christ was anointed, so can we be anointed. How can we come into that same experience, the same reality? By the Spirit of God. By the Holy Spirit, engage him specifically as the Spirit of Christ, and looking to him and surrendering to him and saying, “Spirit of Christ, anoint me with the anointing of Jesus Christ, that I may burn for Him, that I may love Him, that I may serve Him, and that I may do the works of Christ. When you are dealing with Christ, you need to know the Spirit of Christ. The Spirit of Christ deals specifically with the Anointed one, the Promised one, and His work. What did Christ finish on the cross for us? What did He do? What did He bring into us? That's what the Spirit of Christ can do for us.

Romans 8:9, "You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh, but are in the realm of the Spirit. If indeed the Spirit of God lives in you and if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ."

See, that's part of what the Spirit of Christ does. He says, “If anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. The Spirit of Christ brings us into Christ works, our belonging our sonship, our identity, our place in the Kingdom of God, and in partaking into the mission of Christ. Then the mission of God, the Father in our own life and through us, and for the nation The Spirit of Christ brings us to where we know that we belong with Christ.

The Bible talks about that he who is in Christ, is a new creation. Now, just, did you notice the Bible didn't say who is in Jesus? He says,” Christ,” because Jesus before the anointing, He was the Lamb of God. He was, He will save you, right? But now, when the anointing came on Him, when you became a Christian, He expects you and I to go from just salvation, to begin to walk in the anointing. To go to the next step of walking in the anointing. That's why He says, “If you, if anybody is in Christ, he's a new creation.” Why? Because the Spirit of Christ works the transformation and works your place of belonging and works your place into the power, into the reality of Christ. He brings you into the standard, into the lifestyle of Christ, not just salvation.

This is Christ's desire. This is Christ's plan for all of us, that we go from salvation, and we truly pursue him and surrender to Him. He wants us to enter the experience of Christ, His anointing. Then the Bible says, “If we are in Christ, we become a new creation.” Yet we cannot really become new creation until we accept the anointing, the work of Christ. When you are dealing with Christ, you are dealing with the Anointed One, and His anointing. When we are in Christ, we are new creation because we are in the Anointed One, and His anointing. That anointing destroys every yoke of bondage. It doesn't matter whether it's alcoholism, whether it's pornography, whether it's adultery, whatever it is, you know, that yoke is going to be destroyed because we are in Christ.

We are not just saying a prayer, but we are pursuing a real experience, a real relationship with the Anointed One. The Spirit of Christ will work in our hearts. He'll work in our hearts right now. The Spirit of Christ is working in your heart to bring you into that belonging. You are a new creation. You are being transfigured into the image and the likeness of Christ, and that is the work of the Spirit of Christ. If you now have this knowledge and understanding about the Spirit of Christ.

If you say, “Spirit of Christ, Transform me into the image of God. Transform me into the person that brings glory and honor to Christ.” You are going to experience the power of Christ in you. The power that transfigures, that sets you free, the Spirit of Christ. He's going to set you free from alcoholism, from any habits that don't honor Him, that don't glorify Him when you begin to open yourself to Him. But by the way, you must be honest. You need to mean what you say and say what you mean. And when you do that, you surrender and you open yourself up, you don't need anybody to pray for you. It is by faith. you believe what you're saying.

When you believe this reality and message that I am teaching you and when you get ahold of it, then you begin to practice it. You begin to experience no experience necessary whatsoever. All you need is to be a follower of Jesus Christ and the Spirit of Christ. You need the reality of Christ in your life, right? 'The Bible says, “If you are in Christ, you are new creation, the past is gone away.” But remember, you need to be in Christ and Christ, the Spirit of Christ works the reality of Christ in all of us. The better we know the work of the Spirit of Christ, the better we can access and even quickly experience all the things that He wants to do in us. Because now we know, and we don't have to struggle with addictions.

We don’t have to struggle in our own flesh. We can look to the Spirit of Christ to bring us into the very reality of Christ Jesus, our Lord. Hallelujah. Oh, dear friend, listen to this. The Spirit of Christ reveals the secrets of Christ about Christ and testifies of Christ. That's what the Spirit of Christ does in us, with us and through us. It is the specific work of the Holy Spirit as under the title of Spirit of Christ and He will do in each one of us. Listen to 1 Peter 1:11, Searching what or what manner of time the spirit of Christ who was in them was indicating when He testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would come.

The Spirit of Christ was foretelling the sufferings of Christ and the glories that were to come. Why? Because the Spirit of Christ is in involved in revealing Christ, talking about Christ before He came, before he's coming and after. He was preparing the way. The Spirit of Christ who was in them was revealing and he was testifying beforehand that what Christ was supposed to suffer and what glory he was supposed to experience after he suffered. Who did that? The Spirit of Christ, that was in the believer. Do you see? This is not a different spirit. It is the same Holy Spirit, but it's a different function. It's a different operation, a different act, and it's a different activity that is working in the revelation of Christ.

Do you desire to know about Christ? Do you desire to grow in Christ? Do you desire for intimacy with Christ? Get to know the Spirit of Christ because the spirit of Christ talks about Christ, the Anointed One, and his anointing and his desires, his purpose, his destiny for you and for me. Hallelujah. Would you yield yourself to the Spirit of Jesus Christ so that He may supply deliverance. He may supply healing. He may supply all that Christ has paid for on the cross for you, in your name and in your place. Would you yield to the Spirit of Christ, the Anointed one, and the Spirit of Christ?

“Here I am. Bring me into a great experience with Christ. Bring me into a deeper intimacy, a deeper experience, a deeper relationship, deeper understanding, knowledge, power, and authority.”

Everything that the Bible says that is used in Christ, those same things the Spirit of Christ will bring that about into your life and into mine. Hallelujah! I would like to pray for you right now. Holy Spirit, just reach out your hands. If you close your eyes, whatever you need to do, just open yourself up.

Prayer for the Viewers and Listeners
