What Jesus Did, He Wants to Do Through You
What Jesus Did, He Wants to Do Through You
By Myrtle House Community Church
This past Sunday, we were deeply blessed by Julian Richards, Senior Leader of New Wine Cymru, who brought a transformative message. Julian challenged us to consider this simple yet profound truth:
"Everything that Jesus did for people in the pages of Scripture, He wants to do for you—and through you."
As followers of Christ, we are called to live out His ministry in our everyday lives. Julian encouraged us to reflect on how we can develop a deeper relationship with the person of the Holy Spirit and allow Him to work in us and through us, just as Jesus did.
A Relationship with the Holy Spirit
The key to living a Spirit-filled life is building a personal relationship with the Holy Spirit. This relationship helps us explore and apply what we see Jesus do in Scripture to our own lives.
What’s striking is that many of Jesus’ miracles didn’t happen in a religious setting—they took place in the middle of real life. Julian reminded us that:
Jesus’ first miracle, turning water into wine, happened at a wedding—a community event.
His ministry often unfolded in the marketplace, in homes, or on the streets, not just in the synagogue.
This serves as a powerful reminder that God works outside the walls of the church. His Spirit moves in the ordinary, everyday spaces of life.
Hearing the Holy Spirit
Julian also shared practical insights on recognizing the voice of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit often speaks to us through:
A thought or idea that persists and won’t go away.
A deep desire or passion.
A burden on our hearts to act in faith and obedience.
When we listen to the Spirit and respond to His leading, incredible things can happen.
Kingdom Living in the Real World
Julian also emphasized the importance of understanding the Kingdom of God and the culture we carry as believers.
There is no poverty in heaven—poverty is an evil that God calls us to stand against.
The culture we work in determines how much of the Kingdom we experience. This means that as we cultivate a Kingdom mindset, we can see God’s power and provision breaking through in our lives and communities.
When we align our lives with the Holy Spirit’s guidance, we become vessels through which God’s Kingdom can flow. This opens the door for life-changing healings, restoration, and transformation in our midst.
A Call to Action
Julian encouraged us to look at the pages of Scripture and ask:
What did Jesus do for His people?
How did He minister to them?
How can I let the Holy Spirit do the same through me?
This message is a powerful reminder that the Gospel is not just for Sunday mornings—it’s for every moment of every day. As we develop a relationship with the Holy Spirit and step out in faith, we will see the Kingdom of God break into our world in miraculous ways.
Let’s commit to seeking the Holy Spirit’s guidance and embracing the opportunities He gives us to bring healing, hope, and transformation to the lives of those around us.
Looking Ahead
Myrtle House Community Church is excited for what God is doing in this season. Let’s carry this message with us as we live out our faith in the real world, trusting that Jesus still works through His people today.
