The Scripture is clear when it says, For the Kingdom of God is not in Word , but in Power (the same Word 'dunamis' as in 2 Timothy 3:5 - Having a form of Godliness , but denying the Power thereof: from such turn away. ) ( 1 Corinthians 4:20 - For the Kingdom of God is not in Word , but in Power .).
In the previous verse, ( 1 Corinthians 4:19 - But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will Know , not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the Power .) the Apostle Paul said to the people, "I want to Know your Power , not your Words ."
But what do we see again and again, today, in the name of Christianity Words , Words , Words ! And educated Words at that!
But what has it produced (generally speaking) in the Kingdom of God - A weak, powerless generation of cautious and passive Christian Believers , who still live in Bondage , yet, at the same time, are arrogant with it. Blame shifters! It s not my fault! It s my parents, the Devil , the Church , I was born that way - and so it goes on. The result is always powerlessness !
We need to seriously ask ourselves: Is there true Spiritual Power in my Life? And, if not, then why not? What are we going to do about it?
