But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth. — Acts 1:8
Power is the ability or capacity to do things, it can be People’s power, political or electric power, all these are earthly and limited; however, divine power is unlimited and can do all things, even the impossible.
The Greek words for power include Exousia (authority) and Dunamis (explosive, inherent power).
Jesus instructed the disciples to first, expect the Holy Spirit, second, receive Dunamis power and to witness.
To effectively accomplish this end-time-mission, they needed Power – Dunamis to help them witness, overcome sin, the devil and their operations.
He shows them the armour of power in which they are to be clothed before He points them to the battlefield.
The disciples took the power, used it and prevailed. The Holy Spirit is the presence of God actively working with the believer.
Acts 10:38 : “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him”.
The Holy Spirit is here associated with the power by which God was with Jesus— the power through which Jesus Christ performed mighty miracles during His earthly ministry.
This ability is not just for the apostles.
We may not receive this power in the same dramatic way, or be used in an apostolic role, but everyone who has received God’s Spirit has the power to be a witness of Jesus Christ.
God has important work for you and you need the Holy Spirit’s power to get effective results.
The message of salvation has not reached it’s FINAL destination yet, God is counting on you as you receive the power of the Holy Spirit.
Prayer:🏾🏾
Father, give me spiritual power, and confirm your word with signs, miracles and wonders as I proclaim the gospel of Christ.
Scriptural Reading:
Acts 1:4-8
