MIGHTILY STRONG (Part 3)
Did you know that God wants your inner man to not only be strong, but MIGHTILY STRONG? The Greek word "might" is "dunamis" meaning "miraculous, abundant, powerful." It is the same word that is used when Jesus said, "But ye shall receive power (dunamis) after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you." This happens by feeding our spirit with God's Word, but also allowing the Holy Spirit freedom to work in our lives. Nothing of God happens without the moving of the Holy Spirit (Zechariah 4:6).
Invite the Holy Spirit to freely work in you, in your home, and in the lives of everyone in your family. He wants to work in you mightily. He wants to work in each of your children mightily. Paul prayed that the Ephesians believers would be "STRENGTHENED WITH MIGHT BY HIS SPIRIT IN THE INNER MAN" (Ephesians 3:16). The NLT says, "I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will give you mighty inner strength through his Holy Spirit."
Don't settle for a little strengthening, but be a family who are MIGHTILY STRONG in the inner man. Read also Colossians 3:10.
