The scripture make us realize that God’s power towards us is not just great, but EXCEEDINGLY GREAT. But that power can’t manifest until you believe. Your faith in God is what draws that exceeding great power towards you and your situation. Without your faith in God and in His words, you can’t experience the power of God.
The way most Christians live seems to invalidate the existence of this exceeding great power of God. Unbelievers can’t see the traces of that power in our lives and that’s why it’s difficult for most of them to believe in the power when we preach to them. To them, God is powerless, not knowing that it’s the unbelief of the Christian that’s keeping that power for manifesting.
Ephesians 1:19 NKJV says
and what is the exceeding greatness of His power TOWARD US WHO BELIEVE, according to the working of His mighty power.
Look at that scripture very well, that power is exceedingly great ONLY TO THOSE WHO BELIEVE. Furthermore,
Mark 16:17 NKJV says
And these SIGNS WILL FOLLOW THOSE WHO BELIEVE: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues;
Again, signs will only follow those who believe. In other words, preaching without believing won’t release God’s power. Praying without believing is a waste of time. Fasting without believing is hunger strike. Giving without believing is resources wasted. Serving in God’s vineyard without believing is mere service. If you truly wants to see God’s power manifest via any of the aforementioned services, then work on your faith in God.
God’s hands is not short to deliver you from battles that seems to be stronger than you and to heal you; His hand is not short to elevate and bless you; But without your faith in Him or in His words, He can’t do much in your situation. Therefore, work on your faith in God and you’ll experience His Exceeding Great Power working in you and for you.
