Ephesians 6:10 says “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power!” I love this verse because it reminds me that our God is a God of power and strength. The bible is full of references that show us how truly powerful He is and how great men and women of the bible tapped into that strength enabling them to do great things. David took down a giant with the power of God working in him; Elijah faced off 450 prophets of the devil and with the power of God beat them silly! Caleb at 85 years old is filled with the strength of God and at a time in life most were retiring he was leading the charge, ready to conquer the people in the hill country. The hill country was the most difficult place to fight battles but he didn’t care because he was filled with the power of God!
As all children resemble their parents physically and take on the traits of the parents we as children of God should resemble our Father in heaven. There is no fear or back up in God! We serve a powerful God and we His children can look like Him, having the strength of God giving us boldness to face any challenge and win every battle! Is there a place in your life where you need to tap into the power of His might? You can do it! Be bold! God is for us! Live in His strength! PB
