Power For Living#133
We all need power for living. Some people seem to have tremendous reserves of inner strength.They exhort us to look in ourselves for that power, the power of positive thinking, etc. But real power for living, or I should say, any power for living, comes from God. The Bible promises, "The God of all grace... will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen and establish you" (1 Peter 5:10). This is a wonderful promise which is a part of the "Good News" of Jesus Christ. You see, this promise is not for you if you are not a Christian. If you have not trusted Christ to cleanse you from your sin, and if you have not dedicated your life to following Christ, this promise is not for you. You will have to depend on your own reserves of inner strength. But don't get over confident. Sooner or later you will come to the end of your rope. We all do! Many a nervous breakdown has resulted from a failure to acknowledge this. Turn to Christ right now! Bow before Him! Receive new life from Him! Dependence upon Christ is not a sign of weakness. Christ is the source of life itself. And if Christ is living in you, "Greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world" (1 John 4:4).
