God's way is the Power

God's way is God's Power

Reference- 1 Cor 4:20 MSG - God’s Way is not a matter of mere talk; it’s an empowered life!!

In 1 Corinthians, Paul speaks to a divided church where some were proud, eloquent, and believed they were spiritually superior because of their words and wisdom. He contrasts this human pride with the true power of God, shown in the cross, in changed lives, and in the work of the Spirit, the God's Power.

It’s an empowered life—God’s ways are the true power, not found in mere talk, endless words, idle chatter, or impressive responses built on layers of discussion. It is a life empowered by the power of His Spirit, the presence of the Holy Spirit. It is power that breaks chains, sets us free, anoints us, and creates new opportunities, fresh paths, flourishing streams, divine strategies, abundant life, and limitless expansion.

Paul didn’t ask the Corinthians to be practical. It’s not about having everything, but about having Him alongside others. That’s why he said he’d rather gain Christ and lose the world—WORD versus WORLD. It’s about deeper dependence on His Word, His presence, His power, and His empowered life. This draws us closer to the power of the Holy Spirit, the Dunamis. After all, we may have ten thousand teachers in faith, but we need spiritual guardians. We may look like misfits, fools, considered weak, small, despised, hungry, and thirsty for Christ’s sake—and that’s the difference.

Those Spiritual Fathers will share how to recognize God's Kingdom and His ways in our weakness, for it’s then we are made strong by His power—that’s God’s way. In sickness, we are healed; in poverty, we are made wealthy; in times of curse, Christ empowers us with His deliverance. Our reputation may be at risk, but God changes our destination when we depend on Him. In trials and uncertainties, He is the solid and firm foundation—stepping in when nothing seems possible, turning dead situations into miracles and God-blessed testimonies. When we rely on Him, His way brings favour, assurance, confirmation, healing, and complete wholeness.

Dear Father, we know Your Kingdom is power, and Your ways are wonderful; enabling us to share the Light with others as You have intended. Thank You for letting Your power flow through us to nourish others; thank You for Your light shining in our hearts, minds, and souls. Let us be Your channel to carry Your presence, bringing deliverance and guidance to others. Help us to humble ourselves before You and empty ourselves so You can fill us afresh, as needed for Feb 26. Let us be a living example, revealed by Your power and ways in our lives, to fulfil the purpose and Kingdom principles You designed. Go before us to straighten, level, fill, and smooth the path we pursue. We want to show more of You in our lives, not just through words or appearances. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Shabbat Shalom from Kent, London

God's Spirit is right alongside!

God's Spirit is right alongside! Reference: Rom 8:26 MSG - Meanwhile, the moment we get tired in the waiting, God’s Spirit is right alongside helping us along. Have we ever been so overwhelmed that words simply escape us? In those moments of deep pain or confusion, Romans 8:26-28 offers profound comfort: the Spirit of God stands right beside us. We are never left to face this life on our own. This passage reveals that when our prayers seem to go unanswered and our understanding falters, the Holy Spirit steps in. He does not remain a distant observer in heaven; He intercedes on our behalf with groans too deep for words, conveying the cries of our hearts in a language the Father fully understands. Hallelujah!!! The beauty of our partnership with the Triune God—Father, Son, and Spirit—lies in His divine perspective and purpose. God sees the greater picture that remains hidden from our limited view. While we often focus on immediate results, He is orchestrating events with an eternal v...

Stay at the Tomb

The God Who Stoops to See

The God Who Stoops to See Reference Ps 113:1-3 (AMP)- Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!) Praise, O servants of the Lord, Praise the name of the Lord. Blessed be the name of the Lord. From this time forth and forever. From the rising of the sun to its setting The name of the Lord is to be praised [with awe-inspired reverence]. The ancient Psalmist gives us that perspective in Psalm 113. It is a short chapter, but it packs a punch that can completely recalibrate our view of God and, consequently, our view of ourselves. There are days when life feels incredibly small. We get lost in the minutiae of our to-do lists, the weight of our worries, and the echo of our own inadequacies. We look at the mountains we need to climb—the career goals, the relationship hurdles, the personal healing—and we feel like specks of dust at the base of a giant. It’s in these moments of feeling insignificant that we desperately need a new perspective. This isn't a quiet, polite suggestion. It is a declaration of...
