“The life of the Christian without the indwelling power of the Spirit in the heart is a weariness to the flesh. It is an obedience to commandments and an endeavor to walk according to a pattern which you have not power to follow.”
― John G. Lake, The Collected Works of John G. Lake
The power of the Spirit elevates a person into a new level of existence, a place of new possibilities, new vision and new abilities. It is a place where ‘old things have passed away and all things become new’.
It is not as if you have no power at work within you right now because that is what is responsible for your present circumstances. Where life becomes frustrating is when you try to use that same level of power to change conditions for the better.
If you desire a superior life, only a superior power will get you there.
The Bible tells us that the Spirit of God ‘quickens’ or makes ‘alive’ our bodies. It’s like increasing a vibration or a frequency – it raises you up into a completely new realm where it not only can effect your physical body but also gives you a whole new way of thinking.
‘Come Up Here’ is an invitation found more than once in the Scriptures and it is the solution to change a life of struggle and frustration to one of ease and inspiration.
