Your power must come from within~ Jesus living in you. “I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation of everyone who believes; first for the Jew then for the Gentile,” (Rom. 1:16)
The big three destroying Christians are sex, money, and power and one is sufficient to destroy. Focus your attention on Jesus and His authority and ability to conquer. The Spirit of God gives us spiritual weaponry that can defeat all the lusts of the flesh and of the mind and make us victorious Christians. “Have you not put a hedge around him and his household and everything he has? You have blessed the work of his hands, so that his flocks and herds are spread throughout the land,” (Job 1:10).
Before and after His resurrection, Jesus unleashed spiritual power and even nature obeyed his will; Jesus commanded by His word and water was made into wine. Jesus blessed the bread and the fishes and they were multiplied. Additionally, by His word dead Lazarus came out of the grave. Jesus also commanded demons to leave a writhing victim and to come out of him ,the demons obeyed and the person was loosed that same hour. These and many other works of Jesus show His spiritual power in action.
Scripture proves that we are given the power individually to dominate our thoughts, mind, intellect, ego and soul. (Eph. 4:23) says that, “we can be renewed in the spirit of our minds.” (I Pet. 1:13), we are told to, “gird up (bind them) the loins of our mind. These and other Scriptures show us that we can dominate our souls through the spiritual power we now have in the inner man. “I guide you in the way of wisdom and lead you along straight paths. When you walk, your steps will not be happening; when you run, you will not stumble,” (Prov.4:11-12).
“The righteous shall stand in Christ’s divine power. We are more than conquerors in Him,” (Rom. 8). We are not impressed by the power of Satan and don’t give him credit, but, are wrestling against another’s kingdom (I Cor. 15:24, and II Cor. 10: 4-5).
Jesus is already seated at His place of supreme authority, “Far above all principalities and power and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is come: and hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, which is his body, the fullness of him that filleth all un all,” (Eph. 1:21-23).
“Thank You Father. We praise Your Holy Name Jesus. Mighty Warrior, King of Kings, Lord of Lords. His name is Jesus!”
