DARE Month JUNE2019: POWER To FUNCTION & GRACE To BECOME!
What’s God’s
POWER – The enabling of God to FUNCTION and PERFORM in Life and Godliness.
What’s God’s GRACE – The enabling of God to BECOME in Life and Godliness.
Note full well,
that God’s POWER in context, it’s not magical or curious acts, neither is it
mystical, occultic nor sorcery and demonic divination and witchcraft as we do
see in many places in the name of ‘signs and wonders and miracles’ in quotes.
Am sharing here about the enabling of God that makes and position one with daring spirit in life, to function by God’s Spirit and might, out of one’s inability and weakness – Acts 1:8; Zechariah 4:6/Ephesians 6:10, 19.
It’s time to
know again that your ABILITIES are IRRELEVANT to God’s ABILITY. And God only
needs your AVAILABILITY and not your ABILITY if you must FUNCTION in His stead
and BECOME in His Stead. That is the exact picture God gave to Apostle Paul for
him to genuinely carry His inspiration, revelation and empowerment to write
more than half of the New Testament Epistles.
Apostle Paul to
attained to the excellency of God in Christ Jesus, he considered his ability as
dung in order to FUNCTION by God’s POWER and BECOME by His GRACE though being a
learned Lawyer under Sanhedrin, circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of
Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the
law, a Pharisee; concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the
righteousness which is in the law, blameless.
For the essence of God’s POWER and GRACE, when Apostle Paul tried to use his ABILITY to do God’s Kingdom Business, he was denied over and over again. All he hears from God was – “My GRACE is sufficient to make you BE – BECOME, while My POWER is made mighty in your availability to make you FUNCTIONAL”.
Therefore, if
you wants God’s POWER to FUNCTION and GRACE to BECOME, you need to make
yourself AVAILABLE – your ABILITY is zero!
Worth All
Pondering – Selah!
“Though I might also have confidence in the flesh (ABILITY). If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh (ABILITY), I more: 5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6 concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, AND DO COUNT THEM but DUNG, that I may win Christ, 9 and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith” Philippians 3:4-8 (Emphasis Mine).
“Each time he said, “My GRACE is all you need. My POWER works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me” 2 Corinthians 12:9 (Emphasis Mine).
Further Scriptural Reading: Acts 4:33; John 1:12; Ephesians 6:10, 19; Acts 9:27-30.
