1 Kings 15:33-16:34; Jeremiah 27:1-28:17; Colossians 4:2-18
That He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man. Ephesians 3:16 NKJV
Paul references the inner man multiple times. Many invest time and money in building a stronger physique. They have the mental focus and resolve to exercise strict discipline in this prioritized pursuit. Of course, being a good steward of our physical body is scriptural. But do I have the same intensity of desire and discipline to be spiritually strengthened with might and power? How much can I “bench press” for the Lord as the Spirit of God works in my life? —P. Ramsay
Channels only, blessed Master, but with all Thy wondrous power,
Flowing through us, Thou canst use us, every day and every hour. —M. Maxwell
