HOPE 365 Toolbox - Resurrection Power!

Resurrection Power!

Posted by Patra Mueller on

Do you need some power in your life?  Perhaps your relationships with friends, children, parents or spouse could use some new life.   I have good news for you!  The same power that raised Jesus from the dead is available to each of us. “And if the Spirit of of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his spirit, who lives in you.”  Romans 8:11

The disciples were devastated when Jesus had to leave them.  But, He said, “I am going to give you something better than ME living BESIDE you.  The Father will send the Spirit to live IN YOU!   Did you read that correctly?  As believers, we know the Holy Spirit lives in us.  But, do we claim his power in our daily lives, in our relationships, in our struggles?  The Holy Spirit longs to breath new life into our hard situations.  As we surrender to his power,  the “Fruit of the Spirit”(Galatians 5:22-24) is unleashed in our lives.   I agree that letting go is hard, but receiving the empowering fruits of the spirit will be well worth it.  

As I breathe in the Spirit, 

I breathe out resentment and receive love.  

As I breath in the Spirit, 

I breathe out apathy and receive joy.  

As I breathe in the Spirit, 

I breathe out fear and receive peace.  

As I breathe in the Spirit,

I breathe out impatience and receive patience.  

As I breathe in the Spirit, 

I breathe out selfishness and receive kindness.  

As I breathe in the Spirit, 

I breathe out and receive goodness.

As I breathe in the Spirit,

I breathe out distraction and receive faithfulness.

As I breathe in the Spirit, 

I breathe out harshness and receive gentleness.

As I breathe in the Spirit, 

I breathe out distractions and receive self control.

Anyone need a breathe of fresh air?  :)
