Many of us have made friends with fear. We have become so used to our state of anxiety despite many warnings in scripture that we should not remain in that state. Sadly, many people are not aware that they have an anxiety problem. Chronic anxiety is not good for your body. Accurate diagnosis will result in accurate solutions. Isn’t it interesting how we are comfortable being labelled with various chronic illness like high blood pressure but when it comes to mental health issues like anxiety disorders people reject it like it means they are “mad”. Unfortunately, it ends up going untreated and many people around us are negatively impacted. Imagine how your life would have been different if your cheeky aunt or grandmother had actually been diagnosed and medicated for bi-polar. Some of you might be thinking this topic is not relevant to you, but the reality is that you are your brother’s keeper and mental health issues are so prevalent we cannot ignore them. We need to know how to minister to people in these situations, and we also need to know how to respond appropriately to them and not from a place of victimstance.

Grieving the Holy Spirit
“We often neglect or insult the Holy Spirit by ignoring Him or living contrary to His promptings, and then we wonder why there is no power in our lives.” Francis Chan (Forgotten God). We short-circuit the manifest presence of God by grieving the Holy Spirit. In this message we will explore what entails grieving the Holy Spirit and examine the various things that repel God’s Spirit. It is important to note that God’s manifest presence is essentially the presence of the Holy Spirit. It behoves us to study what the Holy Spirit likes and is attracted to, which we have been doing in this series thus far. It is not enough for us to know just what activates the presence without exploring what deactivates the manifest presence of God.
