Plug into Jesus!

Plug into Jesus!

BY Argie Simonis  

"Now to him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,to him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen." Eph 3:20-21  

The Lord doesn’t work independent of us.If the Lord was accomplishing His will without the power that’s working in us, then things would be much better than they are. We limit what God can do, because of our unbelief (Psalms 78:41; Matthew 17:20)

It is not true that God will do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, period. He has that power, but this verse ties the use of His ability to the power that works in us. No power working in us means there will be no power of God coming through us (= no manifestation of God’s power).

Jesus told us in Acts 1:8 of the power that we would receive when the Holy Ghost comes upon us. Romans 1:16 says the Gospel is the power of God unto salvation. However, Christ is called the power of God (1 Corinthians 1:24), and in context (Christ dwelling in our hearts, Ephesians 3:17), this is Paul’s probable meaning here. 

You want power? "Plug into" Jesus today!
