1 "... You have put off the old self with it s HABITS, and have put on the new self... (with it s HABITS) which God is continually renewing in His own image, to bring you to a full knowledge of Himself." Col. 3:9-10 Be Filled With The Holy Spirit He is God in us The one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. 1 Jn 4:4 But as for me, I am filled with power and the Spirit of the LORD. I am filled with justice and might, fearlessly pointing out Israel's sin and rebellion. Micah 3:8 But when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, you will receive power and will tell people about me everywhere Act 1:8 Be Filled With The Holy Spirit He is God in us The one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. 1 Jn 4:4 But as for me, I am filled with power and the Spirit of the LORD. I am filled with justice and might, fearlessly pointing out Israel's sin and rebellion. Micah 3:8 But when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, you will receive power and will tell people about me everywhere Act 1:8 1

2 Jesus Was Filled With Power Then Jesus returned to Galilee, filled with the Holy Spirit's power. Luke 4:14 All the people were amazed and said to each other, "What is this teaching? With authority and power he gives orders to evil spirits and they come out! Luke 4:36 Everyone was trying to touch Jesus, because power was going out from him and healing them all. Luke 6:19 We Are In Error If We Do Not Know God s Power Jesus replied, "You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God. Mat 22:29 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power. 1Cor 4:20 Our gospel came to you not simply with words, but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and with deep conviction. - 1Thess 1:5 *To Overcome Temptation Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. - Rom 6:12 *To Overcome Temptation Each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death. James 1:

3 *To Overcome Temptation So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. - Gal 5:16 *To Overcome the Evil One I write to you, fathers, because you have known him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, dear children, because you have known the Father. I write to you, fathers, because you have known him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God lives in you, and you have overcome the evil one. 1 Jn 2:13-14 *To Overcome the Evil One I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. Luke 10:19 And don't let us yield to temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. Mat 6:13 *To Overcome the World We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one. - 1Jn 5:19 Everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. - 1Jn 5:4 3

4 *To Overcome the World I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world. - John 16:33 *To Overcome the World Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. - Mat 4:8 Worldly Power: - Is a trap of Satan - Turns us away from God and His power - Violates values of the Kingdom of God *To Overcome Evil (in general) Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. - Rom 12:21 Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing. - 1 Pet 3:9 To Live Holy and Pure Lives Speak to the entire assembly of Israel and say to them: 'Be holy because I, the LORD your God, am holy. - Lev 19:2 For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life. 1Thes. 4:7 Make every effort.... to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord. Heb 12:14 Let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God. -2Cor 7:1 4

5 To Live Holy and Pure Lives But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare. Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming. 2 Pet 3:10-12 To Do the Works of Jesus I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. John 14:12 The reason we can do the same works as Jesus is because we have the power of God the Holy Spirit living in us. To Do the Works of Jesus And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well. Mark 16: 18 We are empowered and authorized to overcome the devil s work in other people s lives i.e. sickness, demons... We Are Overcomers! Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? Rom 8:35 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. Rom 8:37 They overcame him (Satan) by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. Rev 12:11 5

6 We Are Overcomers! I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection Philippians 3:10 The one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. 1 John 4:4 Be Filled With The Holy Spirit Jesus Was Filled With Power We Are In Error If We Do Not Know God s Power To Live Holy and Pure Lives To Do the Works of Jesus We Are Overcomers! 6
