[JJ] [PREACHING LESSON 12:] GUARD YOUR SPIRITUAL VICTORY BY DAILY FOLLOWING THE WILL OF GOD IN YOUR LIFE

 

GUARD YOUR SPIRITUAL VICTORY BY DAILY FOLLOWING THE WILL OF GOD IN YOUR LIFE

1 John 5:4-5 "For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?"

1 Corinthians 15:57-58 "But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord."

God announces to Christians that He desires a life of perfect victory for His people.

 

The encouragement for Christians is to guard their spiritual lives by walking in the will of God daily.

1. GUARD YOUR CHRISTIAN LIFE THROUGH MUCH PRAYER

(Jeremiah 33:3) "Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not."

(1 Chronicles 4:10) "And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested."

2. GUARD YOUR STEPS BY FOLLOWING THE EXAMPLE OF CHRIST

(1 Peter 2:21) "For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps."

3. GUARD YOUR HEART THROUGH THE GUIDANCE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

(John 16:13) " Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come."

4. GUARD YOUR EYES BY LOOKING UPON THE HARVEST

(John 4:35) Jn 4:35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest."

5. GUARD YOUR LIFE THROUGH FAITHFUL WORSHIP

(Acts 2:46-47) "Acts 2:46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart,

Acts 2:47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

6. GUARD YOUR LIFE BY SOWING IN TEARS

(Psalms 126:5-6) "Pss 126:5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

Pss 126:6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves [with him].

7. GUARD YOUR LIFE BY GIVING GOD THE GLORY IN EVERY VICTORY

(Colossians 1:10) "Col 1:10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;”

(Ephesians 3:20-21) "Eph 3:20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

Eph 3:21 Unto him [be] glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

* God bless you all always *
