Big Idea: Jesus didn’t come to be admired—He came to reproduce His life in you.
Colossians 2:9 (HCSB) For the entire fullness of God’s nature dwells bodily in Christ, and you have been filled by Him, who is the head over every ruler and authority.
The Spirit That Conquered All Now Lives in You
• Silenced Satan in the wilderness—victory over temptation.
• Cast out demons with a word—victory over darkness.
• Spoke and sickness vanished—victory over disease.
• Forgave sin and broke its chains—victory over bondage.

• Entered death and walked out alive—victory over the grave.
Romans 8:11 (MSG) It stands to reason, doesn’t it, that if the alive-and-present God who raised Jesus from the dead moves into your life, he’ll do the same thing in you that he did in Jesus, bringing you alive to himself? When God lives and breathes in you (and he does, as surely as he did in Jesus), you are delivered from that dead life.
Jesus didn’t just win your victory—He gave you the power that won it. Will you walk in it?
Romans 8:37 (KJV) In all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

Acts 2:33 (NIV) Exalted to the right hand of God, He has received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit and has poured out what you now see and hear.
• Jesus’ ascension was not an exit—it was a coronation.
• Through His glorification, His Spirit became omnipresent.
• The same Spirit that conquered everything in Him is now in you.
You were never meant to live defeated. The Spirit in you is the same Spirit that crushed Satan, overcame sin, healed the sick, and conquered death.
How to Walk in the Spirit’s Victory
