Your Super Power

If I could choose a super power, I’d want the ability to be invisible.

How about you—what super power would you choose?

Here’s something cool…

We already have a super power!

“I want you to know about the great and mighty power that God has for us followers. It is the same wonderful power he used when he raised Christ from death.” (Ephesians 1.18, 19 CEV)

There’s a familiar Hillsong chorus that says, “The same power that conquered the grave lives in me.”

Yup, God’s limitless power lives in us…

But the truth is, it’s really His power, not ours.

We have His power living in us—and because it’s His power, it’s accomplishing His purpose.

My purpose for wanting the power of being invisible?

Because it would really help me pull off some incredible pranks.

But it’s mostly so I could see and hear things that people didn’t intend for me to see or hear.

God’s super power in us is different. It’s not there for pranks or putting us in a place of advantage over others.

God’s power in us is accomplishing His purpose.

What God wants (His purpose), He provides the power to accomplish.

He wanted Christ raised from the dead—and His power made it happen.

God wants us to be free, forgiven, holy, courageous, bold, and on-mission for Him.

And the good news is: He provides all the power needed to accomplish His purpose in our lives.

What God wants in us, He provides the power to accomplish.

That should make us smile.

By the way, I’d love to hear from you… what super power would you choose and why?
