Jesus Christ is our example in every category in how to walk with God. Yet Jesus Christ was not able to do it all on his own. There’s no true strength, ability or sufficiency unless we are relying on God’s great strength, ability and sufficiency. This teaching looks at how Jesus Christ was strong and walked in mighty power due to the spirit that enabled him. It also looks at some things that the Bible says won’t help us to be strong. When we accept that we are weak, we are able to be truly strong by allowing His strength to rest in us. Jesus Christ already won the victory for us in the spiritual battle; all we need to do is stand in that victory and claim what’s ours. We have the God-given ability, the power on the inside, but now we need to manifest it. We have to decide to be strong in it. We have the nine manifestations and our power of attorney to use Christ’s name. It is the Christ in us that equips us to carry out our calling. Let’s be people who are ready for everything and equal to anything because we are strong in the Lord and the power of His might. We can run towards the challenge, eager to take it on, because we know the battle is the Lord’s, and He has already made us victorious. Let’s be strong in the Lord because we walk in all the greatness of the victory in Christ and the holy spirit in us.
