The Household of God Ephesians 2:19
Renewing Your Spirit Filled Life Sunday, October 14, 2018
Reading: Colossians 3:1 -2
1. Introduction
The very day you accepted Christ as your Lord and personal savior. You were
raised to life with him. Old things passed away everything became new. 2
Corinthians 5:17
So set your heart on things that are in heaven Colossians 3:1
Question: how do you set your heart on things that are in heaven?
2. Established position
We should have a firm position in Christ, and get rid of our old lifestyle.
Colossians 3:8 -10. As the saying goes, he who preaches iniquity must come
clean. We need a renewed God spirit in us to sustain our Christian life.
Paul tells us the power of God unto salvation is to everyone that believes
Romans 1:16-17
3. The Sword of the Spirit
Without God having His way in us we cannot have a renewed spirit filled life in
Christ.
For the Word of God here is compared to a sword. Read Ephesians 6:17-18
We need the sword which is the word of God because we are in a war and we need
the spiritual power of God's word to strengthen or renew us in fighting for us
against principalities.
How can that be? You have to be faithful.
4. Trying Times
My brothers if we are serving the lord, we should be prepared for times when we
will be put the tests in our service for our Lord Jesus Christ. Example is in
Colossians 3: 18 - 22
Do you feel the need today for God spirit filled life? The heart is very
deceptive and we have to pray for the Holy Spirit to help us stay firm in him.
Jeremiah 17:9.
5. Change Required
Some lifestyle we must change.
1 our attitude towards God work
2 Our time attending to God work
• Teaching meeting
• Prayer Meeting and Evangelism
May the Holy Spirit help us all to be prompt in doing of his work.
