"Wherefore
I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory. For
this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the
whole family in heaven and earth is named, That he would grant you, according
to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the
inner man" (Ephesians 3:13-16).
Notice the Apostle Paul’s
construction in the verse above. He used the words "strengthened" and
"might." meaning
miracle-working ability; while strengthened means invigorated. So Paul’s prayer above is for you to have a "power
transfusion" whereby you are invigorated by the Holy Spirit!
Being imbued with such power,
weakness or failure can’t be a part of your life. There are some Christians
today who are weak spiritually; they are afraid and unable to make serious
decisions in life. There are even others who are broken, dejected and sickly
because they have not taken a hold of health from within. The opening scripture
shows that God wants you to be tough inside by having your spirit transfused
with His miracle working ability. That means you have to consciously pray the
words in the opening verse for yourself.
Your outward appearance doesn’t
matter. Someone may look at you and call you weak; but say, "I know who I
am; I’m strong inside, because I’ve been transfused with the miracle-working
ability of the Spirit." Never let fear express itself through you. You can
declare right now, "I’m invigorated with miracle-working power by the Holy
Ghost, and His power is manifested through me today."
