Day 52: Ephesians 1:19

“and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might”



Think for a minute about the power and might of God.


Think about who and what He is:


Creator, sustainer, savior.


Think about how God has shown His power: Think about the flood; Think about Sodom and Gommorah; Think about the cross.


God has shown tremendous power and might. Just the act of creation is enough to overawe me. The thought of speaking the universe into creation is amazing.


Now imagine this power toward us. Think about your salvation.


What power God has.


Now when Paul says that God wants us to know and experience that power, that should bring you out of your seat and drive you to your knees. The fact that God’s power is given to us in the Holy Spirit, and that God would choose to use it through us is amazing. It drives me to worship, and it should drive you to worship too.


Leaders, and all Christians: God wants us to experience His great and amazing power. Not just be a recipient of it, but to actually experience it. What a great God we have.


The next time that you think of a task that seems impossible, or a situation that seems that it can’t resolve itself, look up at the sky, or around you, and remember the power that created everything. Remember the power that saved you.


That power can do whatever it needs to do, and God wants you to experience that power.


CHRISTIAN LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLE: God wants you to realize that the amazing power behind creation and salvation is also at work in you every day.


Here’s a set of verses to meditate on today: Ephesians 2:11-22


Prayer: Father, help me to remember the amazing power you have displayed in all things. Lord, when I worry, help me to remember that You want me to experience that power. Amen.
