Jesus in YOU- Supernatural & Natural

Matthew 10:1
He called his twelve disciples to Him and gave them Authority to drive out evil spirits and to Heal EVERY Disease and Sickness.

Matthew 28:16-20
16. Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had appointed for them.
17. When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some doubted.
18. And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “ALLl AUTHORITY has been given to Me in HEAVEN AND ON EARTH.
19. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
20. TEACHING them to OBSERVE ALL THINGS I HAVE COMMANDED YOU; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

The SAME Power that Raised Jesus from the dead IS IN YOU! Romans 8:11
It's in the Atonement- NOT by your own righteousness, but by JESUS' Righteousness.

So if you ask, Can God use a sinner like me? Let's say you may be dealing with pornography, or smoking, or a marriage problem, etc. GOD STILL USES YOU! God still speaks to non believers just as He does to believers, the ones who receive are those that listen and obey.

You see, God expects us to become MORE Holy, more (Godly) Righteous the further we walk with Him. We are expected of more, the closer we get in our relationship with God. So what's all that mean. We were created Righteous Because of Jesus' atonement. However we need to shed our "old man" our "old nature" become more Holy the closer we walk with God. It is a call of obedience. A call to be Holy, as He that lives in you is Holy.

Are you looking for your own actions to make you Holy to allow God to flow? Or do you KNOW who you are in Christ, that brings freedom that allows the flow of the Power.

-JESUS IN YOU-

2 Thessalonians 1:11-12
With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may count you worthy of his calling, and that by His POWER He may fulfill every good purpose of YOURS and EVERY ACT PROMPTED BY YOUR FAITH. 12. We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified IN YOU, and YOU IN HIM, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Romans 8:11
And if the SPIRIT of HIM who raised Jesus from the dead IS LIVING IN YOU, He who raised Christ from the dead will ALSO give life to your mortal bodies THROUGH HIS SPIRIT, who LIVES IN YOU.
----
Colossians 2:9-12
For in Christ all the FULLNESS of the Deity lives in bodily form, 10. and YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN FULLNESS IN CHRIST, who is the HEAD OVER EVERY POWER AND AUTHORITY. 11. In him you were also circumcised, in the putting off of the sinful nature, not with a circumcision done by the hands of men but with the circumcision done by Christ, 12. having been buried with him in baptism and raised with him through your faith in the Power of God, who Raised Him from the dead.
----
Romans 8:9-11
You, however, are controlled NOT BY THE SINFUL NATURE but BY THE SPIRIT, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ. 10. But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your Spirit is alive because of Righteousness. 11. And if the Spirit of Him (God) who raised Jesus from the dead IS LIVING IN YOU, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit, WHO LIVES IN YOU.

2 Corinthians 13:5
Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the FAITH; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus IS IN YOU—unless, of course, you fail the test?
----
1 John 4:4
Greater is He that IS WITH IN ME, then he that is in the world.
----
1 John 4:17
As He (Christ) is (currently) SO ARE WE in this world.
----
Ephesians 3:20
Now unto him who is able to do exceeding, abundantly, above all that we ask or think, ACCORDING to the POWER THAT WORKS IN US.
----
Ephesians 2:22
And IN HIM you too are being BUILT TOGETHER to become a DWELLING in which God lives by his Spirit.
----
Christ in YOU, the Hope of Glory.

1 Corinthians 4:20
For the kingdom of God is not a matter of Talk but of Power.
-
Luke 17:20-21
Once, having been asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, "The kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation, nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of God is within you."



God will use anyone who is willing to be used.
