The
Spirit of Might
The
Spirit of the LORD will rest on him--the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding,
the Spirit of counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of
the LORD
The Holy Spirit is the
Spirit of Might. It’s his Spirit that gives us the power to overcome. Think
about that for a moment, when you have made it through something that was very
hard and difficult and you didn’t completely loose it and everybody around you
said, they would have lost it….it is because of God’s Spirit of Might that you where
able to overcome. Sometimes we overlook it because we are conditioned in our
world to think that it is our own might but we must (as Christians) recognize
it is the might that God has planted in us. It’s the might that we get because
we are his children. The challenge for
the Christian is to use the Spirit of Might instead of reaching for something
else. We may try to reach for our wit, our knowledge, or humor but God want’s
us to reach for His Spirit of Might.
The fact is nothing
else will do. When we reach for humor,
we laugh and people think we are strong but when we leave their presence we
leave with our head down in the same condition we were in prior to talking with
them….why because we have used something artificial to appear we are okay. Humor is fine but the power of God’s might
should be used 1st to heal, strengthen, redirect or whatever we
need, then humor. God gave us his might….but a gift means nothing if you are
not willing to use it when you need it.
Tap into the power of God’s Might and let God rest, rule and reign.
Let’s pray, Father God
you are such a good God, you have always been just what I need. Today, I want to tap into the Spirit of
Might. When my boss says something to me
that I don’t like, when my children won’t obey, when my husband doesn’t
understand…. help me to tap into your Spirit of Might not to bulldog anybody
but to handle the situation Godly, controlled and with power that I recognize
only comes from you. To your name be the glory…..Amen!
Have a great day!
