For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also
in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner
of men we were among you for your sake. And ye became followers of us, and of
the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy
Ghost:
The power of God comes into our lives through the gospel of Jesus
Christ, and is conveyed by the Holy Spirit. It is sound doctrine, but it is
also far more: it is the Word of God that releases both the authority and
explosive power of the Creator into our world to shape our circumstances. When
affliction rises up and we walk in the power of God, the joy of the Lord will
overtake us and we can rejoice in the middle of tribulation as the kingdom of
God manifests through us. Thanks be to God, Who fills us with His power, and
equips us to walk in victory!
