Divine Potential | Pastor Jon Neitzell

May 4, 2025    Pastor Jon Neitzell

In this powerful message, we're reminded of the transformative power of the Holy Spirit in our lives. The key scripture discussed is John 1:25-33, which recounts John the Baptist's testimony about Jesus and the descent of the Holy Spirit. This passage beautifully illustrates how even those closest to Jesus didn't fully recognize His true nature until the Holy Spirit revealed it. This parallel invites us to consider: How often do we fail to recognize the divine potential in ourselves and others? The message emphasizes that when we're filled with the Holy Spirit, everything changes. We're given access to supernatural power - the same power that enabled Jesus to perform miracles. This isn't just about spiritual experiences; it's about becoming better parents, friends, and followers of Christ in our everyday lives. As we reflect on this, let's ask ourselves: Are we truly allowing the Holy Spirit to work through us, or are we trying to live this Christian life on our own strength?
