the Power of God

Yesterday’s service was awesome for me.. in that it was the revealing of the power of God. God who created everything. In the perfection and harmony of creation, the perfection of God is shown. This God who is so powerful, who created the air i breathe, also came down to die for me. I guess to come to any understanding of the magnitude of the power of God, we have to know the magnitude of our God.

Rom 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

The Gospel of Christ, IS the power of God, unto SALVATION! It is not the faith of the one praying but the preached good news that is the power! I guess it is when we realize this, that we become truly unashamed of the Gospel of Christ, preaching and praying!

Abba, I want to be the 200 men at the Brook Bensor. Sitting and drinking of the good news. And the free gift of grace and mercy!
Teach me Lord, in Your ways and wisdom. Give me Your wisdom, understanding and a kind heart. That everything I do would be out of Your guidance and infinite wisdom.
I have been forgiven not out of mercy but out of Your Righteousness! Your righteousness demands my success!
