Christ's Power Made Perfect In Our Weakness!

Christ Jesus said to the apostle Paul:

'My grace is sufficient for you,

For My power is made perfect in weakness.'

(2 Corinthians 12:9)

The apostle Paul goes on to say:

Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses,

So that Christ's power many rest on me.

That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults,

In hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties.

For when I am weak, then I am strong. (2 Corinthians 12:9-10)

This is a paradox and a reality that is true for all who belong to Christ Jesus.

At the weakest point of our situation, Christ is the most powerful.

Christ is the most powerful in and through us,

When we have no power at all

And are completely dependent upon His power.

And we know that His power is infinite.

This should be very consoling for us

Who have put our faith, hope and trust in Christ.

Every trial, every confrontation, every difficulty is not in our hands but His;

We by faith surrender our will to his will and our way to His WAY;

Our part is to hold on to our faith, hope and trust in Christ Jesus.

The battle belongs to the Lord [2 Chronicles 20:15.]

This is why the Kingdom of God is for children only!

Children put their faith, hope and trust in their parents;

They are completely dependent upon their parents.

In the same way we are to put our faith, hope and trust in Christ Jesus.

This thinking is appalling to those in the world.

It is the opposite of worldly thinking and doing;

And that is what we are: The opposite of the world;

In our souls; our mind will and emotions, and in our spirits.

Because inside of us lives THE SPIRIT--God--The LIFE GIVING SPIRIT;

The Giver and Sustainer of all life!

In Him resides the power of Creation and the power of the Resurrection!

The power that raised Christ Jesus from the dead!

The power that will put Satan and all his demons into The Lake Of Fire.

The power that will one day, create a New Heaven and a New Earth.

The power that destroyed the world of Noah's day.

The power that destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah;

And Today, the power that will fulfill all of Scripture to the last detail;

The power that will bring The Great Tribulation;

The power that will destroy all the armies of all the nations;

The power that will collapse all the cities of all the nations;

The power that will redeem a Bride for Christ Jesus,

And will establish His Kingdom on this earth for a thousand years;

Doing away with sin and evil.

The power that will enable us to rule and reign with Him;

The power that will, in the twinkling of an eye,

Change our mortal bodies into a body like His Glorious Body;

The power that will make us ONE with Himself in character and being,

As He and the Father are ONE.

Yes, we submit ALL that is within us to that POWER;

The CREATOR and the REDEEMER, God! The Eternal King!

And we delight in our weakness because then our God is ultimately strong;

His power made PREFECT in our weakness!

Today, the world is raging against God, rushing toward oblivion. (Psalm 2)

Save yourself from this corrupt generation! (Acts 2:40)

As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
