LIVING WITHIN US

PSALM 77:14 (MSG)
No god is great like God!
You’re the God who makes things happen;
     you showed everyone what you can do...


COLOSSIANS 1:26-27 (NTE)
This word declares the mystery that was kept secret from past ages and generations, but now has been revealed to God’s holy people. God’s intention was to make known to them just what rich glory this mystery contains, out there among the nations. And this is the key: the king, living within you as the hope of glory!

SUMMARY SENTENCE
God is powerful without peer but the wonder of wonders is that he is living within us.

PRAYER
Awesome Father, you do amazing and wonderful works for -- and through -- your children. Forgive me for my inconsistent faith. When I am at the Red Sea of difficulties, part the waters and show me your path. Let my faith and words testify that Jesus in the heart is the key to victorious living. Amen. (Daily Texts, Mount Carmel Ministries edition)
