I pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead … (Ephesians 1: 19–20, nlt)
The same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead is at work in us who believe! This is wonderful, and yet we often live as if this passage doesn’t exist! We are concerned about so many things: perhaps our children, or challenges at work, or financial and/or health issues. The challenges in life often seem overwhelming.
But you can experience the “incredible greatness of God’s power,” which is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead. It is the purpose of this book to guide you in experiencing the power of the living Lord Jesus in every part of your life. You will be amazed at the richness of the biblical message about the power of God!
