You have power in you

“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: …” 
Acts 1:8(KJV) 

The word 'power' in our opening scripture means 'inherent power.' It refers to power that is intrinsic  with the nature of a thing. This means that the power we have in us is because of the Holy Ghost who we have received in us.

This is why the Bible says in 1 Corinthians 6:17 “But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.” Therefore now that you have been mingled with the Holy Ghost, it means that                                                                                                                                                  you have also received all the power that is in the Holy Ghost. So no matter where you are, if you need that power you can just simply stir it up by praying in the Holy Ghost to produce whatever change you desire.

This was why Paul speaking to Timothy in 2 Timothy 1:6 said, “Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.” This admonition from Paul is still very relevant to us today because some Christians allow themselves to become overwhelmed by their challenges and the difficulties that comes to them forgetting that they can do something about it.

Therefore, when challenges and difficulties arise, know that you can change it by stirring up the power of the Holy Spirit that is in you, that power in you can change any circumstance, no matter how hopeless it might seem to your senses. If you spend time praying in tongues - directing the power of the Spirit to that circumstance, it will surely change in your favour.

CONFESSION
In the Name of Jesus I declare that I am filled with the power of the Holy Spirit, therefore greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world, may every challenge and difficulty that has arisen against me be turned in my favour by the power of the Holy Spirit.

For further study read:
Romans 8:26-28, Ephesians 6:18, 1 John 2:27.

DOING THE WORD
Please spend some time to pray in the Spirit concerning any challenge or difficulty you may be experiencing.
