Love God
- Read John 15:18-20. 1 Peter 4:1-2. What should we expect?
- Read Ephesians 6:10-18. How do we win the battle with temptation and an enemy we can’t see?
- Read Matthew 6:13, 26:41. What part does prayer take in the battle?
- Read James 4:7, 1 Peter 5:8-9. What authority do you have with Christ in you to resist the Enemy?
 | Satan attacks – Temptation (Enemy outside) “I am being tempted to lust, to fear or be angry.” “I am being tempted to feel defeated.” |
| Defeated/Discouraged - Stronghold in our mind (Enemy inside our defenses) Read Ephesians 4:27. “I am lust controlled, angry, fearful, or defeated.” |
 | Push the Enemy out. Refuse to believe his lies – Resist the enemy and he will flee from you. “I am free from sin. I can choose to obey. I am new creation. Jesus in me can overcome anything.” Romans 6: 18, 2 Corinthians 10:5 “I order you out of my life in the name of Jesus Christ.” |
- Will you make the 5th Discipleship commitment?
| REPRODUCING: Jesus reproduced himself by training disciples to do what he was doing. We will make disciples by inviting others to read the Bible with us and obey God and start new discipleship groups. Matthew 28:18-20, 2 Timothy 2:2 |
