Resurrected By the Power of God

“The LORD GAVE David VICTORY wherever he went. David reigned over all Israel, DOING what was JUST and RIGHT for ALL his PEOPLE.” [1]

“So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised IMPERISHABLE; it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in GLORY; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in POWER; it is sown a natural body, it is raised a SPIRITUAL body.” [2]

Sunday, Jesus opened the door for me to share God’s Word with seventy-seven men at a ministry for homeless and destitute men. The Spirit led me to emphasize resurrection by the power of God. At the moment of death, we are at our most helpless and vulnerable state. We can do nothing for ourselves. We must transfer all our faith to the POWER OF GOD.

The Spirit led me to ask the men, “Why don’t we rely on the power of God all the time? Let us continuously ask GOD to raise us up with HIS POWER. No matter how bad our circumstances are, even if we are dying, GOD has the POWER to GIVE us VICTORY. The LORD delights in those who TRUST in Him.” He works through believing believers.

By GOD’s POWER we can do what is JUST and RIGHT for ALL people. David, in the Bible, lived by faith in GOD. More than that he lived a life of praising and thanking GOD. He knew that His help was in the NAME of the LORD. GOD gave him the POWER to do what was JUST and RIGHT for ALL people.

We believe that GOD raises us the perishable. GOD glorifies the dishonored who TRUST in HIM. GOD resurrects the dead by HIS POWER. GOD GIVES the VICTORY. HE empowers us to do JUST and RIGHT for ALL people. Amen? GLORY to GOD!
