Sermon Notes 3/17 – The Power of God

The 5 Powers of God

1.Dunamis

2. Exousia

3. Energeia

4. Ischus

5. Kratos

Kratos Power – this is dominion power and expansion power for everywhere.  We see this in Luke 4

1. THE POWER OF GOD IS NOT LIMITED TO A PARTICULAR PLACE OR TIME – Luke 4

-Luke 4:16-21,44 – Kratos power is in the synagogue

-Luke 4:38-39 – @ home

-Luke 4:31-5:1-2 – in the city & marketplace

-Luke 5:27 – @ the tax office

-Luke 7:11-15  @ a funeral

Kratos power is expansion power & everywhere

Kratos power gives us wisdom how to expand

Kratos power gives us the right and dominion power to expand – the enemy is on our property

                      The Two G’s Of Kratos Power

               1. GATHERING

               2. GOING

GATHERING

1, KRATOS Power is at work when believers gather together – Matt 16:18 & Hebrews 10:25

-Jesus is the Head of the church – Colossians 1:15-18 – the Kingdom of God

-He gave us an instruction manual to follow – the Bible

-the church is the Ekklesia or called out ones – to be other centered

WARNING: the body of Christ has limited what God can do to a building…

THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF A FILLING IS A SPILLING – WE MUST GO…

GOING

Matthew 28:18-20 & Mark 1:32-39

-Kratos power stretches us as we gather together – in prayer & the use of the gifts

-The Church on Monday is exciting…this is the church going….

WE MUST COME OUT OF OUR SAFE PLACE………

IT IS RELOCATION TIME

-the Lord is in the relocation business

1. The Lord is going to relocate believers when they die and don’t die

-Philippians 1:21 and 1 Thess 4:13-18

2. The Lord relocates people at salvation – Col 1:13

3. God relocated Himself – Is 59:16-17 – the Incarnation

4. The Lord is in the process of relocating the church right now in 2 ways:

1. preparing the church for the rapture

2. from just being a Sunday church to being a Monday church

***THE LORDS RELOCATION PLAN INCLUDES A STRATEGIC PLACEMENT FOR EACH BELIEVER – Using His KRATOS POWER
