TITLE: What God Wants to do With You TEXT: Ephesians 2:1-10 THEME: Gods wants to make you to be like Jesus

Philippians 1:6...he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion.

How does God help you change?

1.God wants you to bury the past in the past. (1-3)

Ephesians 3:1-3 As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world, and...the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts.

Three kinds of People Those that have given their lives to Christ and have successfully left behind the old way of life

Three kinds of People Those that have given their lives to Christ and have successfully left behind the old way of life Those who have given their lives to Christ but still struggle with their old way of life.

Three kinds of People Those that have given their lives to Christ and have successfully left behind the old way of life Those who have given their lives to Christ but still struggle with their old way of life. Those who haven't yet given their lives to Christ, and what Paul refers to as the 'old way of life' is actually their current way of life.

Ephesians 1:3 All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires an thoughts.

Three key words: Craving

Three key words: Craving Desires

Three key words: Craving Desires Thoughts

Three key words: Craving Desires Thoughts These three words reveal the pyramid of power of the old way of life

How do you bury the past in the past?

Our cravings are born out of our desires, and our desires are born out of our thoughts. If you want power over sin, then you have to attack the source of its stronghold: your thoughts

Two Steps: Change what you think about. Instead of dwelling on the situation, dwell on the solution, or dwell on a non-related subject that is more conducive to a peaceful mind. Change what you think about what you think about. Instead of thinking, "This is the kind of thing that puts me over the edge!" say to yourself, "This is the kind of thing that used to put me over the edge—the very thing that Christ is changing in me."

Romans 12:2 Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.

How does God help you change?

II. He wants you to come alive spiritually. 4-6

A. God will give you the faith you need to live spiritually.

Ephesians 1:4-5 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions.

Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me

II. He wants you to come alive spiritually. 4-6 A. God will give you the faith you need to live spiritually. B. This new life is the greater than you ever had before.

Ephesians 1:6 And God raised us up with Christ Jesus and seated us with him in the heavenly realms.

How do you get eternal life? Does it require a lot of good works? A few good works? One good work? The answer is: zero good works. There's nothing you can do to make yourself come alive spiritually; God does it for you.

Ephesians 1:9...not by works, so that no one can boast

Ephesians 1:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith.

Ephesians 1:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God.

Ephesians 1:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God.
