Purpose of Real Power

“...but in everything commending ourselves as servants of God, in much endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distressed, in beatings, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in sleeplessness, in hunger, in purity, in knowledge, in patience, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in genuine love, in the Word of Truth, in the power of God...” from II Corinthians 6:1-10

“’All things have been handed over to Me by My Father; and no one knows the Son, except the Father, nor does anyone know the Father, except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.’” Matthew 11:28

“And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on the earth.’” Matthew 28:18

Why have we been given His power through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit?

“’...but you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth.’” Acts 1:8

“’Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and the Son and the holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo I am with you always, even to the end of the age.’” Matthew 28:19-20

Know His Word. Take care. Your servant & friend in Christ, Darlene

PS: New Prayer Request: Audley’s mother died, he’s travelling home to be with family. Ongoing prayer requests: Australians recovering from natural disasters of fires and floods, emergency and support workers still labouring. Marilu –pregnant in hospital, must lay still, on her side for months to save her unborn. God’s hands on new USA political administration. Barb and Gary to find new, satisfying jobs; wisdom for doctors caring for Doris, Michael, David and Adrian. Randy’s family moving to Canada. New work projects for me. Praise: Lyle’s brother (healing well) and girlfriend (who’s stayed with him throughout entire ordeal).
