Resist the devil and he will flee from you

RESUMEN: The sermon discusses the importance of living an evangelistic lifestyle and how Jesus serves as a model for this. The speaker emphasizes the need to confront one's own areas of brokenness and seek God's power to overcome them. The power of the Holy Spirit is necessary for effective evangelism, and the speaker encourages declaring God's call and purpose for our lives and committing to it. Going to church and declaring the things of God with our mouths is important in our spiritual growth and fulfilling God's plan for us.
In order to see God's will become a reality in our lives, we must declare it even if we don't see it yet. We must exercise the anointing within us by faith and confront sin and spiritual pride with humility and love. Evangelism also involves continuous confrontation with evil and spiritual attacks, but we must stand firm and resist the devil. We must be warriors and equip ourselves with the whole armor of God to fight against the forces that govern this world.
In this sermon, the preacher emphasizes the importance of living an evangelistic lifestyle and being prepared for spiritual warfare. He also stresses the need to discern opportunities for evangelism in our daily lives and to use the gifts of God. The preacher reminds us that God has given us authority over Satan and that we should not be afraid to use it. The sermon concludes with the urgent message that it is necessary to proclaim the Gospel to other cities, as this is why we have been sent.
The passage in Luke 4:42-44 talks about how Jesus had a sense of urgency to preach the Gospel in other cities and not just stay in one place. The speaker emphasizes that as Christians, we should have a missionary spirit and be willing to go wherever God leads us, even if it means leaving our comfort zones. We should be willing to surrender everything to God and live a life of sacrifice and mission. The speaker invites anyone who wants to consecrate their life to the Lord or receive Christ as their savior to come forward and pray. The prayer is for God to use us for His glory and give us power over evil. Finally, the speaker prays for everything - the church, its program, and government - to be used for God's glory.

Last Sunday we began a journey through the 4th chapter of Luke. This chapter 4 of Luke serves to illustrate a life that exemplifies evangelism, an evangelistic lifestyle. What are the components, what are the elements that constitute an evangelistic lifestyle. That's what we've been talking about these Sundays, because again, we want our church to embrace an evangelistic lifestyle. And we are making a very long-term investment in reconstituting the neurology, if you will, of our church towards evangelism, that everything we do is oriented in that direction. On Friday, for example, we had that time of prayer and it is a way of seeking God's anointing to evangelize.
Sometimes people think that just one little thing around here, no, that's all. The casting of the seed is simply the culmination but around that there are many pieces. We have to learn to live as a church and as individuals, each one of us has to be an evangelist of the kingdom and Jesus is the model par excellence of what it is to live an evangelistic lifestyle.
