Ephesians 3:20
God has placed within every one of us, tremendous power through which we become prosperous and attain good success. The seed of greatness lies within you. The treasure of excellence dwells inside you (2 Cor. 4:7).
There is a spirit in man, the inspiration of the Almighty gives them understanding (Job 32:8).
The desire of God is that we keep showing forth the excellence of His beauty, which dwells within us, so that the knowledge of His glory will spread forth and fill the earth as the waters cover the seas…
The Ephesian church had a good antecedent. Apostle Paul, in his letter to them, made reference to the good testimonies made concerning their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and love for the saints (Ephesians 1:15).
When Paul came to Ephesus, he met some disciples, asked them concerning the Holy Spirit, about whom they knew nothing. He taught them, baptized them in the name of Jesus, laid hands on them and they received the Holy Spirit…
At different points in our lives, we need Godly assigned agents who will lead us to higher grounds, deeper roots, greater dimensions…
These servants of God (apostles, prophets, evangelists, teachers, pastors) charge us up, they stir up our spirit to attain greater exploits, to reach out for more…
They challenge us never to remain complacent in life!
There is more… Are you being stirred up in your spirit that there is much more?
Are you maximizing what God has deposited within you?
Have you received the baptism of the Holy Spirit since you believed?
If you have received the baptism, what have you done with it?
The power that works within us is the power of the Holy Spirit. It’s the same power that raised up Jesus from the dead (Romans 8:11). It is through the power of the Holy Spirit that God brings our hearts, thoughts and ways in total alignment with His, such that when we speak, we speak as the oracles of God, and He seals it up with divine authority.
Ephesians 3:14-21; 1:15-22
In Revelation 2, our Lord, Jesus Christ wrote a letter to the church in Ephesus…
I’m not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God unto salvation to them that believe unto salvation… (Romans 1:16).
Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
How shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed?
How shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard?
How shall they hear within a preacher? How shall they preach except they be sent?
As it is written… (Romans 10:13-15).
There is yet more…!!! More blessings to receive, much more to release!
More exploits to be made for God’s kingdom! More souls to be won!
More disciples and ambassadors to be raised for Christ!
More kingdoms and territories to be subdued!
Through the power that works in us… The power of the Holy Spirit.
