The power of God is the very life and energy that you need to flow in what you’re doing for His glory. It’s the essence of your works.
It’s the only substance that’s able to impart life in your works. In other words, you need God Himself through His Son by the Holy Spirit working in you to empower you to carry out His will.
Therefore, without His power, your works are as powerless and lifeless as somebody who is dead in trespasses. Your works are utterly worthless, empty, and devoid of any spiritual significance in His sight.
In order for God to be pleased by your works, they must be done only by faith through the channel of a divine being who is coequal with Himself working within you.
Then He answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the Word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit, said the Lord of hosts (Zechariah 4:6).
That person is the Holy Spirit. His job is to elevate the standard of what you’re doing to such a high level deemed agreeable and acceptable to God. A level that you would have never been able to reach through human power and will.
That’s why it’s such a terrible idea to do the Lord’s works independent from His Spirit. It’s tantamount to wasting your time, effort, and energy. You’re literally straining yourself to no avail.
You may have lot of talent, but if you don’t have the anointing of God operating in you through a life of holiness, if you don’t have a Christ-like character, your talent is meaningless.
Talent alone isn’t enough. You need something more to back it up. Most importantly, the essence of your talent is dependent wholly on the power of the One who gave it to you working through you and through that talent.
Without God’s anointing, your talent is dead in the sight of God. Talent is just a natural ability. Since God is spirit; therefore, His work must be done in a way that’s in line with whom He is.
That’s why you cannot do the work of the Lord which is spiritual by nature with just natural or human ability.
Living For God
Key principle of how God operates: Everything must revolve around God Almighty. He does everything through His Son, by His Son, with His Son, and ultimately for His Son by the power and might of His Spirit in order for Him to be glorified by His Spirit through His Son Christ Jesus after all as the great Creator and Initiator of all things.
All things are made available through the Son by the Father in order for the Holy Spirit to draw upon.
Therefore, that’s how He works. He has invested His whole being and everything He has without reservation in His beloved Son (John 16:15).
In order for something to be deemed acceptable in His sight, He must be the central focus of it.
Important: Therefore, living a Spirit-filled life is to have God Himself through His Son Christ Jesus by the power of His Spirit empowering you to submit yourself to His will.
The core foundation of glorifying God is predicated on living a Spirit-filled life through the holiness which you received from Christ.
The essence of glorifying Him is based on leading a holy life by allowing the Spirit of God to further unleash the holiness and righteousness of Christ that were imputed to you when you were saved.
The mystery is that God Almighty Himself came to this world to redeem human souls that have died in trespasses. He came because of the sins of mankind that He might die the death of the cross so that the power of sin might be destroyed forever in order to restore humanity to a state that He might dwell within them.
God wanted a righteous blood to cleanse the sinner. Satan and his fallen angels have managed to have their own fair share in every sin that mankind has ever committed against God.
Therefore, it would take the blood of a being who is equally powerful, righteous, holy, and perfect as God to provide an atonement deemed sufficient.
It literally took the blood of Jesus as God Almighty who came to this earth as one of us and lived a holy and righteous life before God Almighty to cleanse those sins.
————- Note ————-
You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for You created all things, and by Your will, they were created and have their being (Revelation 4:11).
After all, it’s all about God Himself being glorified through His beloved Son Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit.
It’s all about God’s greatness, holiness, supreme authority, power, and dominion being revealed through His Son by the Holy Spirit.
It’s all about God’s greatness, absolute authority, power, and dominion being acknowledged with awe by the power of His Spirit through His Son by those He created for His glory.
It’s all about God being in control of all things through His Son by the power of His Spirit.
He’s the great Initiator, Creator, and Sustainer of all things through His Son by His Spirit. Therefore, the glory (the expression of His greatness, the expression of His being or nature as God Almighty) being revealed in all things He created must go back to Him by the power of the Holy Spirit through Christ Jesus.
The Holy Spirit empowers people to glorify God through the Son. In other words, the Spirit of God empowers people to glorify the Son. The Son, in turn, glorifies the Father by submitting Himself to Him, so that God may be all in all.
Any glory and honor given to God the Father apart from His Son is unacceptable to Him. Any glory given to God which isn’t based on the work of the Spirit of God in life of a person is unacceptable to Him as well.
Footnote: The characteristic that best defines how God operates; in other words, the core foundation of how God works is glory, glory, and glory. It encompasses all of His divine attributes.
His glory is everything that makes God, God. His glory is the essence of His being. His glory is His significance, holiness, and weightiness as God Almighty.
He doesn’t keep His glory to Himself, although He could. So He makes sure that He expresses it plainly through His mighty works so that everybody can see and acknowledge it.
God created mankind for His glory. In other words, He did so to reveal His unlimited greatness to a being capable of contemplating all He has done and render the glory and honor only due to Him.
Because He created all things by Himself. He didn’t take any suggestion from anybody. Nobody outside of Himself contributed anything in all things He has created through His Son by His Spirit.
That’s the reason why He’s the only One worthy to receive glory and honor. Therefore, our main purpose as people created in His image is to glorify Him.
Glwa Bondye
Glwa-W’ ki se esans sa ke-W’ ye pa nati te toujou ap manifeste depi nan letènite avan kòmansman tout bagay te egziste.
Sa vle di menm si Ou pa-t’ kreye anyen, sa pa t’ap chanje anyen nan sa ke-W’ ye. Pèson pa ka ni ajoute oubyen retire sou glwa ki san mezi sa.
Yo gen dwa chwazi pou yo pa rekonèt li, men glwa-W’ te toujou ap manifeste etènèlman e l’ap toujou manifeste etènèlman.
Kidonk, Ou chwazi selon pwòp souvrennte-W’ pou-W’ kreye tout sa ki egziste yon fason pou-W’ eksprime glwa sa ki te toujou demere nan Ou. Kreyasyon-an se yon ekspresyon oubyen manifestasyon glwa sa.
Menm jan ke glwa-W’ ki baze sou montre kòman-W’ gran se entansyon-W’, motivasyon-W’, detèminasyon-W’, ak objektif divin Ou nan tout sa Ou ap fè, se konsa tou Ou vle ke entansyon-m’, motivasyon-m’, detèminasyon-m’, ak objektif final mwen se egzalte, glorifye, ak manifye grandè-W’ atravè fè yon gwo Bondye tankou-W’ parèt gran nan lavi-m’ atravè tout sa m’ap fè pou glwa-W’ ka manifeste nan lavi-m’.
Menm jan ke glwa-W’ se valè-W’ ak esans egzistans Ou kòm Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa. Se konsa tou esans egzistans mwen, misyon-m’ nan vi sa se pou-m’ glorifye-W’ atravè rekonèt karakteristik ki fè-W’ sa Ou ye-a ki se glwa-W’.
It’s All About God
Everything God is doing is kept to a standard that perfectly fits whom He is. No other ability, wisdom, might, or power is able to carry out His will apart from His Spirit.
The standard or principle by which something can be carried out is confined within the Godhead. It can be best summarized that way: All things are from God and through God.
This principle is based on God Almighty fulfilling His will through His Son who is the exact imprint of His being by the power of the Holy Spirit who is known as His Spirit.
In order for something to have value in His sight, He must be the core foundation of it. It must be done for His glory through His power.
We’re just vessels through which He carries out His will. His Spirit prepares and empowers so that His will can be fulfilled through us.
Therefore, it’s all about God Himself working through others in order to fulfill His sovereign will.
Only Jesus could offer a sacrifice deemed acceptable and sufficient in the eyes of God.
No human could have done what Christ did on the cross on behalf of mankind.
Only the Holy Spirit is able to empower people on the basis of Jesus’ atonement to live a life deemed agreeable in the eyes of God.
Only the Spirit of God is able to empower people to do works deemed acceptable in the sight of God.
Only by the grace of God through Christ Jesus being applied by the Holy Spirit man can be saved.
Prensip Fe Travay Bondye-a
Tout sa ke lom lan ap fe pou Bondye dwe komanse direkteman atrave espri-l’ ki non selman konekte ak Bondye, men se la Sent Espri Bondye pran rezidans Li.
Se la menm ki baz operasyon Lespri Sen-an nan lavi lom lan. Anplis, se la Bondye Papa ak Pitit la syeje twon Li nan lom lan.
Anplis, se la kapasite spirityel lom lan tankou anksyon ak pwisans pou-l’ non selman mennen yon vi ki fe Bondye plezi, men pou-l’ ka fe travay Bondye-a nan yon fason ki aseptab nan je Bondye demere.
Le lom lan dekonekte ak Bondye akoz vi peche l’ap mennen, travay l’ap fe pou glwa Bondye vin afekte. Sa l’ap fe-a vin tente oubyen souye pa movez kondisyon vi spirityel li.
Mande pou Bondye santifye-w’ ak travay Li.
Fe travay Bondye-a ta sipoze soti nan espri-l’, pou-l’ pase atrave nanm li, epi manifeste atrave ko-l’. Men se pa sa-k’ rive fet paske lom lan sanse dekonekte ak pati nan li ki se pwofonde tout sa-l’ ye ki se la vre kapasite spirityel li demere.
Lom lan dekonekte ak eleman ki se esans ak lavi travay Bondye ke l’ap fe-a. Li pa gen anksyon Bondye k’ap anime, penetre, ak anjandre sa l’ap fe. Se sa ki ka rann sa l’ap fe-a kapab monte devan Bondye. Sa rann ke-l’ selman fe travay la nan yon nivo mantal.
Verite Pawol la se pa vreman sa ke-w’ pesevwa, se pa vreman ide ke-w’ genyen le-w’ fek li yon teks, men se pil kokenchenn verite ki kache pa deye teks sa. Se yon verite ki multi-dimensionel.
Li gen plizye kouch ki ale a “l’infini”. Kidonk, se sel Espri Bondye ki ka pemet yon moun penetre diferant dimansyon revelasyon ki kache anndan Pawol la. Li menm sel ki ka pemet yon moun penetre ke ak pwofonde Pawol la.
Kidonk, gen anpil moun k’ap pwoklame Pawol la selon premye kouch ki evidan a tout moun. Men yo pa ka ale pi lwen pase sa akoz nanm yo pa konekte ak espri yo ki se plas kote Sent Espri Bondye depoze enspirasyon ak revelasyon ki kache deye Pawol la.
