BY HIS POWER AND ENABLEMENT

For instance, in Hebrews 9:14, the Bible tells us how Jesus offered Himself to God through the Holy Spirit. This means He offered Himself by the power or the enablement of the Holy Spirit. He did it through the agency of the Holy Spirit’s power. In the same way, when we do whatever we do to the Father through Christ Jesus, it’s not about Christ being a medium. It’s us functioning in His power and enablement.

For example, when Paul says, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me,” (Philippians 4:13) he meant that it’s through Christ’s power and enablement that he accomplishes all things. That’s our testimony. Our sufficiency is of Him (2 Corinthians 3:5), which means we function by and through His divine ability. Only sinners need a medium, which Jesus is to them (John 14:6); but once in Christ, you no longer need a medium; you’re united with Christ in God. You’re a member of His body, the church. He is in us, and we are in Him. We have become inseparably one with Him. He gave us His Name to live by, to pray, and to offer our praises.

PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for the privilege of praying in the Name of Jesus. I recognize the power and authority you have given me to live and do all things in His Name. I consciously act in alignment with this divine authority, understanding that I am empowered by Christ to accomplish all things. My life continually reflects your will and brings glory to you, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
