POWERFUL LIVING

2 Timothy 1:7-8 For God has not given us a spirit of timidity (fear), but of power and love and discipline. Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord or of me His prisoner, but join with me in suffering for the gospel according to the power of God….

A Quick Review The Power Source “Generator”

What is Power? A Simple Definition: Having the ability & resources to make something happen

God’s Power Source Secret to Powerful Living - Galatians 2:20 - Christ in you, the hope of glory – Col 1:27-29 Power Source is Acts 1:1-8 - The Holy Spirit is the “Generator”

Powerful Living Obedience FellowshipWitnessing Prayer Bible Study

How Do We Get Plugged In To the Source Two ways we are energized with power - God’s Word - Prayer How much is available? God’s Ability and Resources are unlimited

God’s Word What it is: - Essence of God - John 1:1 &14 & Rev 19:13 - Truth - John 17:17 What it does: 2 Tim 3: Gives wisdom leading to salvation - Teaches, reproves, corrects, trains in righteousness - Keeps us from sin – Psalm 119:11

Power of God’s Word Why is it so important? It…….. - Is God’s love letter to mankind – John 3:16 - Reveals God’s attributes – 1 Cor 13 - Teaches us how to live - Psa 119: Establishes basis for beliefs – 2 Tim 3:15f - Revolutionizes individuals & relationships - Leads us to eternal life

Prayer – Get Plugged In What is Prayer? Matthew 6: Communicating with God Why is it important? - Foundational step in knowing God - Jesus set example – John 14:13-14

Power = Potential x Flow Potential (Voltage) – Get Plugged In - God’s Word (He speaks to us in Bible study) - Prayer (We communicate with Him) Flow (Current) – Turn on the Switch - Fellowship (We bond with believers) - Witnessing (We reach out to non-believers)

New News Turn on Switch Two ways power flows through us to others: - Fellowship - Witnessing

Fellowship = Relationships Do not forsake assembling - Hebrews 10:23-25 God’s power seen in fruit – Gal 5:22-23 Golden Rule – Matthew 7:12 What does the Lord require - Micah 6:8

Justice, Mercy and Grace When it comes to SIN ……. Justice = Getting what you deserve Mercy = Not getting what you deserve Grace = Getting what you don’t deserve

What Does The Lord Require Do Justly - Examine the Scripture for how to deal with sin - Get facts straight - Get counsel about “right thing to do” Love Mercy - What would Jesus do? Example: John 8: Judge like you want to be judged Mat 7:1-2 Walk Humbly with Him (Remember Grace)

Witnessing The Fourth Dimension To The Christian Life

Revelation 4:11 CREATION

Romans 3:10-12 REBELLION

JUDGEMENT Hebrews 9:27

SACRIFICE 1 Peter 3:18

RESURRECTION 1 Peter 1:3

TWO WAYS TO LIVE John 3:36
