RHAPSODY OF REALITIES FRIDAY, 11TH AUGUST. Pastor Chris
TOPIC ✨ THE CHURCH: FULL OF GLORY, POWER AND MIGHT✨
Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God (2 Corinthians 5:20).
Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness (Colossians 1:11).
The verse above is part of the prayer of the Spirit through the Apostle Paul for the Church. And since it’s the Spirit’s prayer, it means it’s already been answered. It’ll be wrong now to pray, “Lord, strengthen me with all might”; rather, simply affirm that you’re strengthened, not with some might, but with all might by the Spirit in your inner man. This shows just how powerful we are as Christians. We’re invigorated with miracle-working ability. Blessed be God!
Now, if this were about angel Michael, and how he was strengthened with all might, one might say, “Lord, that’s amazing; he’s such a great angel,” but He’s talking about us in the Church—you and me. We’ve been strengthened with all might, meaning that we’re unlimited in the things that we can do. Nothing is impossible with us; we’re unconquerable.
Even in the face of diverse tests, trials, and persecutions, we’re bold and courageous for, and with the Gospel. There’s strength in us to endure and prevail against adversities, and take a hold of every and any blessing that we may require from within. We’re full of joy, irrespective of our physical condition or our environment.
This is the Church of Jesus Christ; there’s no weakness therein. It’s a glorious Church, a singing Church, a triumphant and thriving Church, full of glory, power and might. Hallelujah!
*CONFESSION*
I’m strengthened with all might from within by the power of the Holy Spirit. I can do all things and change the circumstances of my life to conform to God’s perfect will for me, through His power that’s at work in me mightily. Hallelujah!
FURTHER STUDY: Ephesians 3:20 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,
1 John 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
