There is, I Will, This is That
The sermon “There is, I Will, This is That” delivers a powerful, Spirit-filled message that bridges biblical truth with a present-day call for revival. Rooted in John 7:37–39, the message opens with a compelling invitation—just as Jesus cried out for those who thirst to come and drink, this sermon extends that same call to a modern audience hungry for something deeper. It creates space for both believers and seekers, emphasizing that God still reveals Himself to those who are open, even in doubt or uncertainty.
What makes this message especially impactful is its rich connection between past, promise, and fulfillment. Drawing from historical revivals—from Jonathan Edwards to the Azusa Street outpouring—the sermon builds faith that what God has done before, He is able and willing to do again. It then transitions into a prophetic declaration through Isaiah 43:19, reminding listeners that God is actively doing a “new thing,” bringing rivers into dry places and life where there was once barrenness.
The heart of the sermon unfolds in three movements: “There is,” “I Will,” and “This is That.” The imagery of a living river—ever-flowing, life-giving, and unending—beautifully illustrates the sustaining presence of God available right now. From there, the promise in Joel 2:28 declares God’s intention to pour out His Spirit on all people, not sparingly but abundantly. Finally, the fulfillment in Acts 2 brings it all together, showing that what was promised has already begun—and is still flowing today. This progression powerfully reinforces that we are not waiting on God; we are invited to step into what He has already released.
The conclusion brings the message home with clarity and conviction: God’s Spirit does not dwell in buildings, but within His people. Through repentance, faith, baptism, and the infilling of the Holy Spirit, every believer is invited into a living, personal experience with God. It’s not just theology—it’s transformation.
If you are longing for renewal, clarity, or a deeper encounter with God, this message is worth your time. It’s more than a sermon—it’s an invitation to experience the ongoing outpouring of God’s Spirit in your own life.
