Children in the Age of the Spirit

In the times of the Old Testament, during the Age of the Father, the Spirit of God roamed and selectively chose in whom He would dwell. Throughout the times recorded in the gospels, amidst the Age of the Son, God walked about this earth housed in a container called Jesus. And at present, since the day of Pentecost, we have stepped into the Age of the Spirit. As followers of Christ, we live in an age where the Holy Ghost, the Person of the Holy Spirit of God chooses to immerse Himself into the hearts of the faithful.

No matter whether it is God roaming as Spirit, Christ walking as Savior, or the Person of the Holy Spirit dwelling within the faithful -- there has always been a confronting call.

1. What is Jesus calling me to do today?

2. What measure of faith will it require?

3. What trust is needed?
