Confidence To Enter and Enjoy the Fullness of Christ - Lesson One
In this message from Wednesday March 11th 2026, Pastor Matt Cottrill challenges us to move beyond mere salvation into the fullness of relationship with God that Jesus died to provide. Drawing from Revelation 15 and Hebrews 10, we're confronted with a profound truth: many of us are saved but have never fully entered into the abundant life Christ purchased for us. The imagery of rivers of living water flowing from believers isn't just poetic language—it represents the Holy Spirit actively moving through our lives in such power that it touches everyone around us. Yet how many of us are living with barely enough spiritual vitality for ourselves, let alone overflow for others? The message traces our journey from ankle-deep experiences with God to swimming in the depths of His Spirit, where we lose control and allow Him to direct our path completely. We're reminded that the river represents a living, flowing, vibrant relationship—not a stagnant memory of receiving the Holy Ghost years ago. The challenge is clear: Are we content with shallow Christianity, or are we willing to dive into the deep waters where God's Spirit carries us beyond our comfort zones into supernatural living? This isn't about religious activity but about confidence in approaching God, destroying the lies that keep us from His presence, and allowing truth to remove the condemnation that makes us hide like Adam in the garden.
