THE SAME POWER LIVES IN YOU

Romans 8:11 (Nlt) The Spirit of God who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you.

When we don't see answers to prayers straight away, we probably need all the help we can get with our believing when the going isn't as smooth as we'd like it to be!😊

The Lord is constantly giving us encouragements in His word when we take the time to read it, and from lots of other avenues when we recognise and receive them, so I'm passing on something which has been helping me recently and hope it helps you too.

God tells us that He has put the same power inside each one of us that raised Christ from the dead. He's the same power that conceived Jesus supernaturally in Mary's womb, that made blind eyes see and flung stars into space. He's the Holy Spirit of God Himself, dwelling on the inside of us and it's so important we believe and remember it because our peace, and our ability to receive from the Lord, will grow when we do.😊

So here is a little list I compiled to help me in my recent struggles to help me remember, but you can add any more you think appropriate to your situation because the same resurrection power that raised Christ from the dead is dwelling on the inside of you too, to overcome every situation and obstacle you may be facing. (if you turn your phone sideways it's easier to read the list.)

The same power that conquered the grave lives in me.

The same power that delivers me from sin lives in me.

The same power that destroys sickness and pain lives in me.

The same power that brings life, healing and health lives in me.

The same power that has set me free lives in me.

The same power that's making me whole lives in me.

The same power that strengthens me is living in me.

The same power, Jesus Christ, lives in me. 

I printed it out on a bit of paper to keep reminding me that the Holy Spirit is actively doing all of that in me (and you) right now. As we keep reading it over I pray it sinks into our spirit more and more, that you'll maybe want to write it out for yourself and declare it over your life too throughout your day because God has said it, so we know it's true.😊 

Col. 1:27 And this is the secret: Christ lives in you.
