What is your family learning to hunger for? In this message from Bless This Home, Pastor David DeVel shares how to move beyond legalism and lukewarm faith to build a genuinely Christ-centered home.

Drawing from Matthew 5:6 and Psalm 63:1, this practical Christian parenting message explains how a family’s habits and priorities shape its spiritual appetite. Discover how to make faith a natural part of everyday life and help your children see that God is loving, approachable, and involved.

This week’s challenge: Ask your family, “Where did you see God’s goodness today?” Share your answers and pray together.

Have you ever known what you needed to do but felt like you didn’t have what it took to do it? You want to make wise decisions, overcome temptation, repair relationships, and make a difference—but your strength only goes so far.

Here is the good news: God never intended for you to live the Christian life on your own.

In this four-part series, we will discover who the Holy Spirit is, why we need Him, how we can be continually filled with His presence, and how He empowers ordinary people to live extraordinary lives. We’ll also explore what a Spirit-filled life looks like and how God uses spiritual gifts to work through us.

The Holy Spirit isn’t strange, distant, or reserved for a select few. He is God’s promised presence and power for every follower of Jesus.

Stop trying to carry everything in your own strength. Learn to live with the wisdom, courage, freedom, and power God provides—not by might, nor by power, but by His Spirit.

Have you ever wondered why certain attitudes, emotions, habits, or destructive patterns are so difficult to change? You may have tried harder, made promises to yourself, and even prayed about it—only to find yourself falling back into the same pattern.

Here is the good news: God has not left you to transform yourself.

In the third message of the By My Spirit series, Pastor David explains how the Holy Spirit changes us from the inside out. Through 2 Corinthians 3:16–18, Romans 12:2, Psalm 51, and Galatians 5:25, we discover three practical ways to cooperate with His transforming work:

· Choose God’s truth.

· Remain in God’s presence through prayer and worship.

·  Respond to the Holy Spirit in obedience.

You are not powerless, alone, or permanently trapped in the person you used to be. As you surrender and cooperate with the Holy Spirit, He renews your thinking, transforms your character, heals wounded places, and makes you increasingly like Jesus.

What could change if you stopped relying only on your own strength and became more responsive to the Holy Spirit?

In part two of the By My Spirit series, Pastor David explains how we can make room for the Holy Spirit by recognizing His presence, discerning His direction, and responding when He leads. Discover how ordinary, faithful acts of obedience can open the door to God’s guidance, strength, freedom, and purpose in your everyday life.
