The Excellency Of His Power
All we need in order to remain steady in righteousness path in all situations and circumstances is God's power. God's presence in us is presence of power, dominion, authority, life, truth, love, peace and entire goodness. And when we are weak yet strong, we know for certain that it is the excellency of God's power operating in us that is making us unexplainably strong when we are as flesh weak (2 Corinthians 12:8-10).
The excellency of God's power never fails. It makes the imperfect to become perfect. It brings the dead back to life. It make the undeserving to become deserving by the excellency of His gracious power and love. The presence of God's power in us is all we need to be able do the ordinarily impossible by His extraordinary power (Philippians 4:13). God's power manifested in the flesh is Christ (1 Corinthians 1:18-21, Ephesians 1:16-23). And as long as Christ is present in us, weakness will always give way to His strength in our lives and; lies will give way to truth, love will prevail over hatred, light will prevail over darkness and His goodness and mercies will continually rest and abide with us in this fallen world of sin, to the utmost glory of Christ who is eternally the I AM manifested in the flesh.
2 Corinthians 4:6-10
"For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body."
