Be Conscious Of The Power That Works In You
Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think,
according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus
throughout all ages, world without end. Amen (Ephesians 3:20-21).
2 Corinthians 4:7 says, “But we have this treasure
in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the
power may be of God, and not of us.” The Holy Spirit
is the power of the Godhead and He lives in you in
His fullness: “But ye shall receive power, after that the
Holy Ghost is come upon you…” (Acts 1:8). His power
is working in your spirit. Our theme verse says, “Now
unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly
above all that we ask or think, according to the power
that worketh in us….” What an inspiring thought!
Notice that it didn’t say, “…according to the
power that worketh in heaven.” This explains that you
have a role in the operations of the miraculous and
supernatural in your life. The glory of God is manifested
in your life according to the power that works in you.
You can trust this power, because it’s the power of the
Holy Spirit. Activate and put it to work at all times, and
it’ll produce results for you.
Even though God, in His sovereignty, can cause
certain things to happen for you, He doesn’t want to
work independent of you. Some Christians often feel
discouraged and frustrated because they’re “praying
to God to do something for them,” yet to no avail.
The issue isn’t with God; they’re the ones to activate
the power of God in them, to bring about the desired changes.
Become conscious that God lives in you. His
power is in your spirit. Activate that power to work
for you by conscious meditation on the Word, and
speaking in tongues. Bring that power to bear on
anything, or any area of your life. Refuse to think
failure, defeat, or impossibilities; acknowledge that the
ability of the Spirit has been granted you to achieve
supernatural results, and speak accordingly.
Confession
Christ is my life and my sufficiency;
He energizes me through and through and His grace is sufficient
for me in all things. I can do all things through the supernatural
ability of the Spirit that’s at work in me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
