The Power Of God Is Within You!

As a born again believer, the power of God indwells your mortal body. You are His sanctuary and He is mighty in His sanctuary. Psalm 68:35, “You, God, are awesome in your sanctuary; the God of Israel gives power and strength to his people. Praise be to God!” NIV

What do we do when we are confronted by the enemy. Much like the armies of Israel when confronted by the Philistines and their champion, we stand motionless in fear at the very prospect of defeat. Thoughts of doubt and uncertainty flood our minds and cause us to lose heart. Does God have a purpose for us to fulfill? Does He not have a cause to perform through our lives.

1 Samuel 17:29, “And David said, What have I now done? Is there not a cause?” KJV God sent young David to the battlefield that day because He needed a champion and had chosen David. He didn’t choose someone who would be measured as a warrior. The king’s armor would not fit this ruddy young lad but nevertheless, he was God’s Champion. He left the battlefield with a resounding victory because he gave himself into the hands of God.

Is there not a cause? Today, the Body of Christ is facing it’s own spiritual giants. At the same time the Holy Spirit is raising up His champions to render the enemy helpless and deliver a resounding victory. David used what was familiar to him, his faith in God and his slingshot. He became a participant in God’s cause. What is in your hand? Will you answer the call and be God’s Champion for His Cause?

2 Chronicles 7:14, “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” KJV
