At the resurrection…
Jesus’ resurrection gives us power, the purpose and passion to live the Christian life.
Romans 8:11 NLT
“And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit, who lives in you”.
Personal Benefit #1
You can conquer any fear invading your life. What things are you afraid of or afraid to face in your daily living? (Hebrews 2:15, Psalm 27:1).

You no longer need to see the future as a personal uncertainty. You have certainty and confidence in Christ (Philippians 1:6, Proverbs 23:18, Jeremiah 29:1).
Personal Benefit #3
You have the personal power to do anything (Ephesians 1:19-20, 3:20; Philippians 4:13).

Because of the resurrection there is a Church and gifted persons – like you – within the Body of Christ (Ephesians 1:21-23, 4:7-11, 16; 1 Corinthians 12:4).
Personal Benefit #5
You can have renewed thinking and behavioral change. It is possible for you, even when it looks impossible (Ephesians 4:22-24, Romans 12:1-2).
Personal Benefit #6
You can access power over the evil forces of demonic activity (Luke 10:19, Colossians 2:12,15 ).

You can have the personal experience of love, happiness, peace, job security, a place to live, friendship, marriage, hope, and everything else you need (Philippians 4:6, 13,19-20; 1 Timothy 6:17-19).
Personal Benefit #10
You have the abundance of salvation and all that it means – spiritually, socially, emotionally, materially, and physically. (2 Corinthians 9:8,11; Psalm 23).
May I suggest: The Numbers 13:32 reference refers to a bad report. The good report is in verse 31.
Thanks Audrey – the verse Pastor Craig had in mind was in fact verse 30… But thanks for spotting this. We made the change.
