119: Quenching the Spirit

Understanding God’s Will // S09E11

Don’t quench the Spirit… but what does that mean? What does quenching even mean in the first place? In todays episode we unpack this idea and focus on what we are called to do, allowing His Spirit to work in us, the opposite of quenching the Spirit. And when we do allow Him to change us, we begin to see the beauty He creates.

Quotes from today’s episode:

“How much better and of more worth is our relationship with Jesus? I’m telling you, get in the ring and get knocked out by Him.” 

Shea Watson, The Pantry Podcast, Quenching the Spirit

“Instead of saying ‘but I,’ say ‘but God.'” Work on that formula. If you start with what God says and then go to you, your gonna come up with a justifier. But if you start with what you say and then go to Go, because He’s the final authority, not your opinion, than you are more likely to choose the wise path.”
