Do we really understand the power of God that is in us? Can we? For the past several months I have been going over this and I'm currently studying the use of the word power when referring to what God gives to us. We pray so much, both individually and corporately, for God's glory, for God's power, for Him to manifest and work miracles through us. Do we realize the power for all of this is in us already? We don't have to continually pray and ask for it, we simply have to believe without doubting that it truly is in us. Then our prayers can be focused on what God wants us to do, rather than the power and ability to do it!
We should be praying for the ability to recognize God's power that is living us. This is the greatest power in the universe, what raised Jesus from the dead. Throughout the Old Testament God's power was used to bring victory to His people when everything visible in the natural said it could not be done.
When the twelve Israelites went to spy out the promised land that God had promised them, the report brought back by the ten was that of fear and doubt because they could see the power of the people in the land and they knew that their power could not overtake them. They declared they were as grasshoppers compared to the giants of the Land (Numbers 13). In the natural that is all they could see, they were blind to God's power because they didn't understand how something could really exist and not be visible with their own eyes.
Author Andrew Whommack writes Spirit Soul & Body that the Word is our mirror to see God's power in us. When we read it, does it read us? Do we see the reflection of God's power in us? We do not have to keep trying to earn this or gain it somehow, we simply have to believe and understand it is really in us, even though we can not necessarily see or feel it.
If we all get an understanding of this, I think we will see the power of God activated across our nation and lives truly changed.
