In a day where best-selling books like The Secret are telling people to go "into themselves" to find fulfillment, The Power challenges this premise as false and destructive. The Power is the truth The Secret can't and won't reveal. The Power reveals that limitless strength can only be found in one place - - the arms of God. How we recognize and receive God's always available strength is the grand theme of this book.
WHATEVER OR WHOMEVER WE ASCRIBE STRENGTH TO ENDS UP BEING OUR "GOD."
Never ascribe strength wrongly. Be aware that we are always ascribing strength to someone or something. Don't ascribe strength to the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, or the pride of life. Ascribe strength only and always to God alone. Mis-ascribing strength repels The Power.
1.The Power is God’s limitless strength. It never weakens. It never ceases. It never fails. It continually loads us with the benefits of salvation every second of every day: forgiveness, healings, deliverance from all forms of destruction, crowns of lovingkindness, and renewal of our youth.
2. Man’s strength is always limited. It always bails out - - eventually. It always weakens - - gradually. It always surrenders - - ultimately. It always fails - - sooner or later.
3.The Power works by overcoming evil with good. The Power of God fathers the fatherless, husbands the widows, befriends the lonely, sends plentiful rain, leads captivity captive, gives gifts even to the rebellious, confirms the inheritance of the weary, breaks all chains of bondage and commands His strength to be ours.
4. Key Verses: Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah. Ps. 68:19.
Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us. Ps. 68:28.
