3 Areas of Battle to Being an Overcomer – Part 2

January 26, 2020 by Dr. Jim Kelly Leave a Comment

1 Thessalonians 5:23

Warfare with the flesh.

The Bible View of the Body

Psalm 139:13-14 We are fearfully and wonderfully made.

  1.  We were made by God. The Creator reserves his special creation for Himself.
  2.  We were made for God.  1 Corinthians 6:19  We were made by Him and for Him, for a dwelling place of the Holy Spirit.

Your body was made for redemption.  Romans 12:1

Present your body as a living sacrifice.  Present your BEST to God.

It determines your appropriation of God’s will.

2 Corinthians 5:10

God will judge us based upon what we’ve done in our bodies, both good or bad.

The determination of your future has to do with what you do with your body.

Philippians 3:18-19, 10-11

There is a sacrifice in following after Jesus.

Focus on Heavenly things instead of earthly things.

1 Corinthians 9:27

Discipline our bodies – in natural and spiritual.

Isaiah 55:2

Colossians 3:2

Romans 12:1

Three Areas of Battle to Being an Overcomer

January 26, 2020 by Dr. Jim Kelly Leave a Comment

Your eternal position in God is settled based on your salvation.  Do not overlook the necessity of being an overcomer.

3 Areas of Battle to Being an Overcomer

  1.  The Devil
  2.  The World
  3.  The Flesh

The flesh is the toughest battle to win.  Romans 8:5-15

The flesh unchecked will lead to death.  Guard against the flesh by continually adding to Spirit.

3 Ways to Add to the Spirit

  1. Deny the flesh.  1 Corinthians 9:25-27  Your flesh is your enemy.
  2. Sanctify our lives.  – to sanctify is to set apart for service.
  3. Praise and Prayer – God inhabits the praises of his people.
