A Christ-centered life is a life empowered by the Holy Spirit.
The very Spirit of God, the Father Himself, comes to live within us, the moment
we believe and accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior. What type of Spirit is this
and what type of power is available to us each and every day?
For the
Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and a sound
mind. 2 Timothy 1:7
Remember, this
power is available to us! We can be disciplined, filled with love and filled
with God’s power! And what does this power include?
And if
the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, He who
raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies, because
of His Spirit who lives in you. Romans 8:11
Imagine that!! The Spirit of God, the Spirit that raised
Christ from the dead, is living within us!
Now, that is power!! This power will support us, comfort us, teach us,
pray for us, give us the right words, and love us throughout our lives. And at
our death, this Spirit will remain alive through eternity, and our mortal
bodies will one day become immortal!
Take this in today. Feel the power of the Spirit. Do not be timid. You
are filled with the resurrection power of Jesus Christ Himself!
Lord,
We can’t fill in enough exclamation points to communicate the
Holy Spirit's power You offer us now and forevermore. Help us to understand and
to walk out into the world with the humble confidence of our Lord and Savior.
In Jesus name,
Amen
