Christ Empowers Us For All Things


And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. Matthew 17:20

Our Father's Anointing, which is Christ, has strengthened us so that there is now nothing that is impossible for Him to do through us! How great is that? Our Father can now tell a mountain to move through us and it will obey Him! To me this shows the greatness of our Father's love for us. Sure He could tell a mountain to move on His own, but He allows and wants for us to be involved! Our Father allows us to enjoy His power with Him. We can now experience life as He experiences it! Our Father hasn’t held anything back from us; He has given us the power of Christ, so that we can be filled with all of His fullness! 

[That you may really come] to know [practically, through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]! Ephesians 3:19

Our Father has given us His glory, John 17:22, just as He gave it to Jesus. Read all of John 17 and you will see how many times Jesus prays for our glory. Our Father wants us to have all of Him and it’s an all or nothing proposition!

Our words should portray these Truths. Our Father has said that for us to have faith, we must first hear His Truth, whether by a preacher or by the Holy Spirit, but faith comes by hearing our Father’s Word! If the only thing that the church does is talk about how greatly our Father moved through the people in the Bible, what good is it? We need to know that our Father is still the same God and that He will still speak through us as He spoke through them. And amen when He speaks, things happen! We have the same strength that the people in the bible had. We have the same Anointing that Jesus has, it’s the same Spirit working through us, and it’s the same Word! Faith for our Father to use us in the fullness of His love and in the active nature of His love comes from us hearing His Words that say that He will! Through the power of Christ in our lives we should speak as Jesus speaks!
