Power to Work and to Win
Acts 13:1-12
God wants to fill us with His Spirit so we can reach lost people and win spiritual battles.
I. God Has an Intentional Plan to Reach Unreached People (Acts 13:1-6a)
Part of God’s intentional plan to reach unreached people is to communicate His intentions to us.
God calls each of us to a specific work, and it is good for us to recognize the validity and worth of each one’s calling.
So, whether we are senders or sent ones, or both, God wants us in the game!
II. God Has Enemies Who Will Oppose His People (Acts 13:6b-8)
Make no mistake about it–If you are trying to reach people with the good news about Jesus, you will face opposition!
III. God Gives Us the Power and Boldness We Need to Win (Acts 13:9-12)
It was a Holy Spirit-inspired boldness that would not tolerate the lies and deception of the devil.
God wants you to have the power and boldness you need in order to win spiritual battles.
He also wants to empower you to win people to Him who have not yet been reached with the good news about Jesus.
