I pray ... also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know ... his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead... — Ephesians 1:17-20
I still don't understand resurrection. I get the concept. I believe God did raise Jesus. Every once in a while, I experience that power through the Spirit's work in my life strengthening me for ministry, helping me love others in tough situations, comforting me when I'm broken, giving me insight when I study the Word, and strengthening me in the face of temptation. I am humbled, thrilled, and left longing for more. I want others I love to experience this awesome power. I'm sure it's the same with you. So let's join together today, thousands of us all around world, and let's pray for God to empower those closest to us to discover his power and to do great things through his Spirit who lives in them.
Significance of Peace
. It rules in our hearts
Colossians 3:15
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.
. God’s presence is through it
2 Corinthians 13:11
Finally, brothers and sisters, rejoice! Strive for full restoration, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.
Questions in 1st Corinthians
10:30
If I take part in the meal with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of something I thank God for?
11:13
Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?
11:14
Does not the very nature of things teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him,
Thoughts
George Muller had run and orphanage in England in the early 1800s that cared for 5,000 children. He had made a vow never to ask people directly for anything, but to ask God instead to inspire them to provide food, clothing, money, or whatever else was needed. He eventually received more than 50 million British pounds in donations, all without ever asking anybody for anything. – Unknown
