Power From God
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,
Ephesians 3:20
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). God gives us power to overcome Satan, and to be a light for Christ. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; (Proverbs 3:5). We have the faith to live in God’s power that he gives us, and Christ is always with us.
Satan tries to kill our power from God through his weapon of fear, but the Word says perfect love casts out fear. Recognizing God’s perfect love and the promise of eternal life gives us divine security and we can now walk with God’s divine power. Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” (Matthew 19:26). Knowing God is our perfect loving Father, and knowing all things are possible with him, gives us faith in the power of Christ; and Christ is always with us.
The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. (Deuteronomy 31:8). The Lord is always with us and he goes before us. He loves us perfectly, all things are possible for him, and heaven is our home. We have overcome the world and we crush the fear that comes from Satan. We are now living with courage and in the power of God.
Everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith (1 John 5:4). We have the power of God to overcome the world and live free in Christ through our faith in the Lord. It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. (Galatians 5:1).
Today, live in the power of God, boldly proclaiming the good news of Christ. Don’t let Satan’s fear enter your thoughts, but live with the attitude of victory in Christ, and know Christ is with you every second of the day.
Prayer: Lord, I pray today that your power will be seen through me; the power to be a light for Christ, and the power to overcome the darkness of Satan. In Jesus’ name, Amen
