MORE
LOVE MORE POWER .
This
is clearly the prayer that many are praying to the Father
today.
Give
us more power and love Lord, and more of the Holy
Spirit.
That
prayer comes out of a pure heart, a heart that longs
after
God.
However,
you need to realise that you have already received all
power
and ALL of the Holy Spirit .
The
Word says that we have received in FULL - ONE God, ONE
Lord,
and ONE Holy Spirit
Not
just a little amount of power, but the power of the Holy Spirit
in
FULL!
According
to Paul it was not about the outward show of power,
BUT
about receiving the Holy Spirit in our inner being.
To
ask for more ....... Holy Spirit, more power is really about
faith
, the measure of faith we have.
As
if it is a competition or trial of strength (armwrestling)
The
winner is the one who has the most strength ,the one who is
Strongest
in power and love .
You
have already received power, love and God’s Spirit in
FULLNESS.
You,
me, all of us, everyone in like measure.
But
the outworking of power, love and God’s Spirit in us is
restricted
by our behaviour – what we do and what we omit to do.
Restricted
by the measure of our faith.
Jesus
is able to bless us abundantly with power through the
working
of the Holy Spirit WHO LIVES IN US, far beyond all our
prayers,
and everything we know and think.
Eph
3:20
By
His mighty power at work within us, he is able to accomplish
infinitely
more than we would ever dare to ask or hope (NLT)
Act
6:8
Stephen,
a man full of God’s grace and power, performed
amazing
miracles and signs among the people. (NLT)
Gal
5:1
So
Christ has really set us free. Now make sure that you stay
free,
and don’t get tied up again in slavery to the law.
If
you are counting on circumcision to make you right with God,
then
Christ cannot help you, says Paul.
But
we who live by the Spirit eagerly wait to receive everything
promised
to us who are right with God through faith.
For
when we place our faith in Christ Jesus, it makes no difference
to
God whether we are circumcised or not circumcised.
What
is
important
is faith expressing itself in love. (NLT)
The
difference between the outward show of human power and
the
filling of the inner man with the Holy Spirit. Although the
power
may be very strong, it is not able to change the hidden
things
in a human heart. Yet with the infilling of the Holy Spirit
the
HIDDEN giants can be tackled.
FAITH
THROUGH LOVE WORKS
Do
you really want to receive something MORE from the Father?
Than
pray for MORE faith for everything that you have received already.
