THE POWER OF HIS RESURRECTION

Ephesians 1:15-21
15 Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all
the saints,
16 do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers:
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit
of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him,
18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the
hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,
19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according
to the working of His mighty power
20 which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at
His right hand in the heavenly places,
21 far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that
is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.

The apostle Paul prayed for believers to “KNOW” four truths:

To know Him (vs 17)
To know the purpose of His calling (vs 18)
To know the riches of His inheritance for the saints (vs 18)
To know the greatness of His power available toward us who believe (vs 19)

The power that is available toward us who believe is the same power which raised Christ
from the dead and exalted Christ to the highest place in this universe at the Father’s
right hand.

Notice – this power is available now for us who believe.

When Christ arose, He conquered hell (hades) and the grave (death).

Revelation 1:17-18
17 And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me,
saying to me, "Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last.
18 I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I
have the keys of Hades and of Death.

HIS RESURRECTION POWER HAS CONQUERED HELL

Hell is all of satan and his demonic cohorts. Jesus conquered all of satan’s power.

This is the power God has made available to us today.

There is no yoke of hell that can keep you under.

As a believer you do not have to tolerate anything that satan and his demons attempt
against you. There is resurrection power available for you, to destroy every scheme,
every evil work of the enemy.

HIS RESURRECTION POWER HAS CONQUERED DEATH

Death is decay. Death is a degradation of life.

His resurrection power heals sickness, disease, torments, and oppression.

The life of Jesus is made manifest in our mortal bodies (2 Corinthians 4:10-11).

The same Holy Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead, gives life to our mortal bodies
(Romans 8:11).

THE RESURRECTION FROM THE DEAD

Now, we know that our physical bodies are mortal. The outward man perished, while
the inward man is renewed day by day (2 Corinthians 4:16).

Listen to what the apostle Paul wrote:

Philippians 3:10-11
10 that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His
sufferings, being conformed to His death,
11 if, by any means, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.

There is a two-fold experience of the power of His resurrection.

Like the apostle Paul, we know Him NOW in this life, and the power of His resurrection
NOW in this life, and the fellowship of His sufferings NOW in this life, and after this life is
over, we will experience the resurrection from the dead.

John 14:19
A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I
live, you will live also.

HIS RESURRECTION POWER IS AVAILABLE FOR US TODAY!

God desires to demonstrate His resurrection power toward us who believe!

THE POWER AVAILABLE TO US WHO BELIEVE IS GREATER THAN ALL OF HELL!

THE POWER AVAILABLE TO US WHO BELIEVE IS GREATER THAN DEATH ITSELF!

Let’s expect His resurrection power – the same power that conquered hell and death –
to be manifest for us as we journey through this life.

Ephesians 3:20-21
20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or
think, according to the power that works in us,
21 to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever.
Amen.

LIFE GROUP STUDY GUIDE

The Power of His Resurrection – Easter Sunday Sermon

Sunday April 09, 2023

The is a simple guide for use in Life Group discussions. Our objective is to focus on the
application of the Sunday sermon - how each one is becoming a doer of the Word and
building their life on God's Holy Word. The Life Group meeting would normally last for 2
hours. Each Life Group would have up to 12-15 people.

Preparation
To prepare for the Life Group meeting, you can listen to the Sermon Key Points (sermon
summary in five minutes) or the full-length Sunday sermon. You can also review the
Sunday Sermon notes. All these are available in the "All Peoples Church Bangalore"
mobile App or online at our sermons page . Pray for the Life Group meeting and invite
the work and ministry of the Holy Spirit.

Welcome
The Life Group meeting may commence with a time of prayer, worship, and a fun
activity.

LISTEN to God's Word

Read the following Scripture references: Ephesians 1:15-21; Revelation 1:17-18;
Ephesians 3:20-21

INVESTIGATE God's Word Together

Please discuss a few of these together, giving time for people to share their insights. We
encourage each one individually to make notes of their personal learning during the
Group discussion.

believers will receive.

If time permits, each one can take a few (3 minutes max) to share one or two key
learning and how they see themselves applying it into their specific life situations.
Encourage each one to participate and share.

FELLOWSHIP by sharing your life and spiritual journey

Each one takes a few (3 minutes max) to share anything from their walk with God,
something God has been teaching them, a testimony of answered prayer or a specific
challenge that they would like prayer for. Encourage each one to participate and share.

ENCOURAGE each other by praying and ministering to one another

Get into small groups of two or three and take turns to thank God and pray for each
other in the light of what was learnt today. Listen to the Holy Spirit. Expect the gifts of
the Holy Spirit to flow bringing healing, releasing miracles, prophecy, etc.

Regroup and pray together for:

1, families to be protected and strengthened
2, a mighty outpouring of God's Holy Spirit on us as a church and through us to bless
many others in our city and nation. Nothing but a mighty work of God's Spirit can change
our city and nation.
3, for the BUILD TO IMPACT project - for God's hand to guide us through the land search
and acquisition process, and for finances to be more than enough to get this project
done.

Close by thanking God together.

SERMON OUTLINE
The Cross of Jesus Christ is God’s answer to the Fall. The Fall put us in subjection to sin,
satan, and death. The Cross was a place of great triumph over sin and satan. And then
came Christ’s resurrection. In His resurrection Christ conquered hell and the grave
(death). His resurrection power is now available to all of us who believe. Discover how
His resurrection power can make a difference in our lives here and now, and the hope it
brings for the life hereafter!
