The Spirit-Filled Leader Notes: We should be constantly changing as we study the scriptures.  We should set a visible example of increasing holiness and power on a weekly basis.

Be the first to confess and repent.

  • 1 Thessalonians 1- repentance is proof of the Spirit’s power in your life
  • Be the example of holy living, confession, and repentance
  • Put sin to death (Romans 6:6-7, 8:12-13)

Produce the fruit of a Spirit filled person

  • Ephesians 5:18- thankful, worshipful, sharing praise
  • Galatians 5:22-23- The Fruit of the Spirit

Exemplify power and fearlessness

  • 2 Timothy 1:6-7- remember the Spirit we were given
  • Acts 1:8- The Spirit was given for evangelism

Don’t let Satan make you feel inadequate

  • Romans 8:12
  • You have everything you need (2 Peter 1)

Suggested Action

  • Help each person figure out his/her spiritual gifts
  • Help them find ways to exercise their gifts to the group
  • Weave in prayers for courage into corporate prayer times

Success:  Each person used his/her spiritual gift to bless others (in Sunday gathering and midweek).  Progress in sanctification- reading of Word leading the measurable repentance. You see more fruit of the Spirit than last month.
