Spiritual Awakening Part 2 - Steve Russell
How can someone speak to sickness and cause it to go away? Scripture tells us that Jesus did it routinely. Is that something we can all do? Steve Russell will tell you that it is, and that as a believer, you have gifts of the power of God available to you that you may not realize are already at your fingertips.
Steve Russell has a gift of being able to describe his own spiritual awakening in a way that helps others more clearly understand what is available to them. If you haven’t heard episode 78, Part 1 of our conversation with Steve Russell, I encourage you to listen to it as some of today’s conversation references last week’s episode. But today, Steve goes deeper as describes his spiritual rebirth, and his baptism in the Holy Spirit, which were two different occasions. He also discusses spiritual gifts intended for you that you may not even be aware of. Some of the things you’ll hear in today’s conversation may challenge some of your more traditional beliefs, and I think that’s a good thing.

When I was playing this episode earlier, shortly after Steven was talking about the gifts of the Holy Spirit, my best friend texted me about a potentially lethal health issue her husband was dealing with that moment and he was being brought to the hospital by EMS- she asked me to pray. I reached out to someone to pray in agreement with me and following that any time he came to mind I thanked the Lord that he was healed. A few hours later she updated me that his symptoms had lifted even before seeing the doctor. God showed up!! 👏
6 mins in - "you come to know God from the box he has been placed in all your life". YES! This is so true. God has no limits - but we put limits on him!
You can not put God in a box. His mercies are new every morning! His ways are not our ways. Steve Russell is the real deal!
I recently discovered this channel after asking God to show me what to watch. Ive been shut in my closet for days seeking direction during a very challenging time. I picked up my Bible earlier and the wind had it open to John 14 /15. Afterwards I watched part 1&2 with Steve Russel , which began addressing all the struggles ive had since i started trying to follow Jesus. I haven't given up, but ive certainly backslidden several times since i had an encounter with the Holy Spirit. This has really helped put things into perspective, however if it's my responsibility to provide the faith, im done for. Whatever faith i have seems to be a combination of a gift, and how much i have or haven't done with it. I still long to know the voice of God. This is my fervent prayer for many years, and i dont understand what is blocking me. Thank you both for an amazing conversation and everyone behind the scenes. God bless and keep you all!!
So everyone that doesn’t receive healing doesn’t have enough faith? I’ve known people who have had 100% faith and their loved one died. There has to be more than we understand.
Testimonies like this debunk the tired narrative that praying in tongues is a learned behavior, that people are just parroting what they grew up surrounded by. Hallelujah!
It’s very difficult to find a church that actually wants to know and move with God.
ABSOLUTE TRUTH! Thank you, I have experienced very similar circumstances! Praise God! Jesus Christ has nothing to do religion or denomination.❤
Has nothing to do with religion
A gift is feely given. Just like our salvation. Gifts are natural, not of works..... I'm a baptized in the Holy Spirit believer . Each one of us are given gifts, not all are granted every one. I continue to notice this speaking of tongues is being highlighted more than ever and believers are not in unity on this. We are called to be in unity. That is such works ie satan than of Jesus. To one, one is given and to another given. Please stop focusing of who's been given tongues it's of satan. None of us are given all the gifts. Keep your focus on Jesus, God, ie Love. You are letting satan get a foothold in this. That's why we are one body in Christ, not all of us get the same gifts. One body in Christ. If God choices to give you tongues ie ect.... then that is that.. God is God stop working and praying for something He didn't wish for you to have. He's God, our thoughts, ways are not His. Wayyyyy toooo much focus in who has what gifts! We are ONE body in Christ!!!!!!!! Hallelujah 🙏
I grew up in church. It was not an option. Yet, I never saw my parents pray or speak of God at home. So yes, I believed in God, but he was nothing more than a "sky daddy" who watches us and maybe sometimes intervenes.
Thank you for linking Part Two to Part One! 🙏💖
This is fire! Thank you!

I desperately want and need to hear God. 🙏
Mr. Russell sounds like a passionate Christian who heals like Robby Dawkins.
I love this channel and thoroughly enjoyed listening to this teaching.
I love the honesty in this podcast.. my husband is exactly where Steve was.. only reads Bible but has not been awakened spiritually. He has given up. He feels it is not for him & God will only speak to him through Bible. Rather it is only textual for him.
