Just How Strong are You?....

Well, alone you only have the strength of mortal man. However, with Christ
in your life, your strength through Him is more than human limitations.
Your strength through Him is supernatural. In Deut. 32:30 NKJV we are told
of how one of us can put one thousand to flight and two of us can put ten
thousand to flight. This means that in the supernatural we can send one
thousand demons packing and two of us, in Christ, standing in agreement with
each other, can send ten thousand demons flying. Amazing strength. Amazing
bit of knowledge. And yet we as Christians often choose to live as
spiritual wimps! Amazing stupidity!

The Word of God also tells us in Psalm 27:1 KJV, "The Lord is my light and
my salvation, whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life of
whom shall I be afraid?" In Psalm 66:5 it says, "Come and see the works of
God; He is terrible in His doing toward the children of men." (the unsaved)
In Isaiah 50:9 it says "Behold, the Lord God will help me: who is He that
shall condemn me? Lo, they shall wax old as a garment; the moth shall eat
them up."( If God is for you, who can be against you?) And in Mark 10:27 it
says "But Jesus looked at them and said, 'With men it is impossible, but not
with God, for with God all things are possible.'" And in Philippians 3:14
it says, "I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me."

When we are born, we are subject to the Prince of this world and that is
Satan. However, when we accept Christ as our Lord and Savior we take up
residence in the Kingdom of God as a brother of Christ and full heir of God!
If you have been offered a palace, why do you choose to stay in a pig sty?
Many of us choose to have one foot in the spiritual realm, usually when we
pray or are in trouble and need a "God Fix it Quick", and then one foot in
the world the rest of the time when life isn't too bad. Come on! Get that
other foot into the spiritual realm where it now belongs, now that you are a
child of the living God. The world perishes but the Kingdom of God is
forever. Once you draw nigh to God, He will draw nigh unto you. (James 15:
4-5). NOW you have put all the love and power of God into effect in your
life. You no longer have to be subject to failure and abuse. You are
forever victorious in all that the world will throw at you because you now
possess the awesome strength of God! If He abides in you, you can go into a
huddle with Him for every circumstance in your life and get the perfect game
plan for victory in every situation. You can go through trials in this
world with Jesus by your side and come out victorious and full of wisdom for
your journey through the trial instead of just another victim and statistic
in the world.

To get strength in the physical, you have to go to the gym and work out.
You have to pump iron to bulk up. And what is so funny, is that for all the
muscle you acquire on the outside to impress man, you are still a 90 pound
weakling to the devil. What a waste of time. To have real power and might,
claim your citizenship in the Kingdom and then, when you need strength, you
can flex your spirit man. You can ask your Father to send the angels to
help you. One angel has the power of 250,000 men in the natural! Walk with
Christ. And then the next time someone or the enemy asks you "Just how
strong are you?" you can tell them, "Through Christ, I have the strength of
251,000 men!".....Patti
