WE HAVE GOD’S POWER WORKING WITHIN US
“Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us,“
Do you think you’re “hard wired” genetically and can’t change? Or perhaps your habits are so deeply ingrained that you’ve given up and ceased striving to change or improve? If so, your mind is not in alignment with God’s, but it can be believing this one little verse. Read Ephesians 3:20 again….slowly. As a Christian, you have a dynamic force at work within you that overrides your innate inability to change. We can change because of “HIM who is able.” So, yes, maybe we’re not able to change on our own, but we have “HIM WHO IS ABLE to do FAR MORE ABUNDANTLY BEYOND.” And, God’s “far more abundantly” ability is BEYOND all that we even ask or think. We have God’s “power that works within us.” It is HIS power that even drives you to read this post. He is working within you. Our job is to BELIEVE HIM, turn to HIM, and grow in HIS WORDs. I’ll have more on this in a new study on which I’m working. I can’t wait to share it with you. In the meantime, pray for me – that all God wants me to share with you about “how we change,” He first works in, out, and through me.
Heavenly Father, You give us hope. More importantly, You give us truth. We can change; not because of our innate ability, but rather because of YOUR POWER WORKING WITHIN US. What a great hope, and we thank You!
