Power in Christianity 1


“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth……...” Romans 1:16

The first power in Christianity is the salvation power. Your redemption was enforced by power so you are not powerless. You became a Christian by experiencing the spirit birth: you heard the word, the Holy Spirit moved upon you, the veil on your minds was taking away, you received the Gospel and became born again.

“That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.” John 3:6
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” 2 Corinthians 4:3-4

The god of this world did not want to release you, but the power of the Gospel broke his hold over your life and your redemption was secured. You became translated from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of God. This power changed your life. Your sins are forgiven. You became part of the family of God. Beloved, the implication of this is that as a Christian you are not powerless.

May you walk in power every day of your life in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: I invoke the power that saved my soul against the powers attacking my life in Jesus name.
