God's power

They will attack you, but they won’t defeat you, because I am with you and will rescue you, declares the Lord. ~ Jeremiah 1:19 (CEB)

For the Kingdom of God is not just a lot of talk; it is living by God’s power. ~ 1 Corinthians 4:20 (NLT)

KEY THOUGHT:

The Lord uses his power on our behalf.

PRAYER:

Almighty, yet loving, God, thank you for standing up for us. I create all kinds of problems yet you continually intervene to bring about your kingdom outcomes -- the best outcomes possible. Forgive me for lusting after power of my own. I fool myself into believing that I'd use it all for good. Help me to be content with your power -- allowing you to work out the challenges. I'm going to live according to your power. Amen.
