Every Child of GOD comes equipped with the "Power of GOD." I know you ask how? If GOD is your Father and he has Power, how can you be his Son or Daughter and not have Power ("the apple doesn't fall far from the tree."). The Word says, 'To as many as believed on his name to them gave he "Power" to become the Son's of GOD." "GOD has not given us the Spirit of fear, but of "Power" and of love and of a sound mind." When the Christian Church was being established during and after Christ's resurrection (read the book of Acts), it was being established in, with, and by "The Power of GOD." You have power, but you don't have it if you won't walk in it.
You have Power, but you don't if you don't exercise it. You have Power but you don't if you don't believe it. Faith is the key to exercising the Power of GOD in our lives and towards others. It is through the Spirit of GOD (Holy Ghost) in us that GOD will move and show forth his mighty Power. Jesus said "These things that I do will you do also and greater than these, because I go back unto my Father." Fear will keep you from being all that you can be in GOD, and from exercising the Power that GOD has given to you. Listed below are scriptures that explain how the Power of GOD should operate in the Servant of the Most High GOD:
- What is the "Power of God"?
I Corinthians 1:24
John 1:12, Luke 9:1 (Power and Authority)
II Tim 1:7
Acts 1:8
Acts 3:1-6 (The Apostles Faith, this man was asking for alms)
Acts 4:33
Acts 9:36-41 (His Faith she was dead)
Acts 13:6-12 (By the "Power of God" in Saul)
Acts 14:8 - 11 ("Power of God" in Paul, but seeing this man had faith)
Acts 20:7 - 12 ("Power of God" in Paul, the young man was dead so we know it was not the young man's faith) - "Power of God" is unlocked in us by Faith
Matt 21:18-21
Mark 11:22-23
Luke 17:6
II Cor. 5:7 (Your walk must be based on Faith)
Hebrews 11:6
James 1:6-7
Even in the Old Testament, they operated in the Servant of the Most High GOD!
