They Had Been with Jesus | Sunday Message

When someone’s life has been radically transformed by Jesus Christ, people recognize it. In this Sunday morning podcast, Pastor Greg Laurie defines the attributes that permeate a life of true conversion. Listen in for the latest message from the series, The Upside Down Life from the book of Acts. 

Notes

“The doorway of success is often entered through the hallway of failure.”

To be forgiven, there needs to be repentance.

“That your sins may be blotted out” (Acts 3:19). The Greek word means to “wash off, erase, and obliterate.”

Don’t choose to remember what God has chosen to forget.

When we repent, “times of refreshment come from the presence of the Lord” (Acts 3:19).

1. A person who has been with Jesus will boldly share their faith.

2. A person who has been with Jesus will be a person who knows Scripture.

3. A person who has been with Jesus will be persecuted.

There is power in Jesus’ name!

If and when you’re persecuted, wear it as a badge of honor.

4. A person who has been with Jesus will be a person of prayer.

1. The apostles prayed together.

There is power in united prayer.

2. The apostles acknowledged the sovereignty of God.

“God is able to do what He pleases with whomever He chooses whenever He wishes.” —Chuck Swindoll

3. The apostles prayed for God’s will.

“Lord, I do not ask for a lighter load; I ask for a stronger back.” —C.H. Spurgeon

4. The apostles were once again filled with the Holy Spirit.

Have you been with Jesus?
