Mighty-working power is in the believing

"When you believe God’s Word rightly divided, just read it and believe it, it becomes internalized compulsion. It energizes in your inner man. That’s how God the Holy Spirit works in your life.

"Paul’s praying for the Ephesians, for members of the Body of Christ in Ephesians 3:16: [16] That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

“How rich is that? That never ceases abounding. That’s where your sufficiency is. Christ dwells in you; He settles down and is at home and lives His life in you when your faith trusts who God says you are, what God says He’s doing, and the Spirit of God strengthens you with might," explains Richard Jordan.

“That word ‘might,’ you go back in the gospels and it’s the miracle-working power. There’s the might of God where He parted the Red Sea, where He raised the dead, where He heals.

“All those mighty works, that same mighty-working power of God resides in His Spirit who resides in you and He’ll strengthen you will all of the capacity you’ll ever need to be everything God has for you to be and it’s in your inner man, and it works when you believe it.

“You know, faith is the foundation of everything because it activates the operating of the Spirit of God in your life.

"Have you ever felt that you hit a plateau in your Christian life? You know, everything’s kind of normal, nothing real exciting? You don’t have much vision and you don’t feel like you have any victory? In fact, you feel just the opposite?

“People with a problem come to me and ask, ‘What should I do?’ Well, have you been reading your Bible? Well, no. What’s your prayer life been like? Not so much.

“You understand, you study your Scriptures and you see, ‘There’s the will of God.’ You take prayer and you take what God’s doing and apply it to your life. If you want to know how to do the will of God in your life, first, don’t worry about you, think about HIS will."
