Bible
“For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, That He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be STRENGTHENED WITH MIGHT BY HIS SPIRIT in the inner man (EPHESIANS 3:14-16).”
I first want you to notice that little phrase, “in the inner man.” Paul did not say in the inner child, but the inner man. Paul was expecting the Ephesians to mature and to grow up in Jesus Christ. So many believers today see themselves as weak spiritually, and many of them are weak. Why? They have not grown up in Christ because they are still living as malnourished and underdeveloped children on the inside.
They have not received the “riches of His glory,” nor have they been “strengthened with might” by the Holy Spirit. The Greek word translated “strengthened” is very interesting. It is the word krataiootheenai, which means AN INFUSION OF THAT WHICH INVIGORATES AND ENERGIZES—in this case “might” or dunamis, the energy to do work or the enabling power, which flows right out of the riches of God’s glory. This verse paints a vivid and powerful picture in our minds of the Holy Spirit flooding our spirits with His ability and wisdom. We must UNDERSTAND THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT LIVES IN US TO EMPOWER US TO SUCCEED AT WHATEVER GOD CALLS US TO DO: AMEN& AMEN.
HALELUJAH, GLORY BE TO GOD.
