21 Days of Focused Prayer – Day 11
1 Corinthians 2:9; Ephesians 3:20, 4:23-24
Ephesians 3:20 (New Living Translation)
Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.
God’s Work Within: Living and loving each other as family is our heritage in Christ. But it is only possible because God is able to do immeasurably more than we can imagine, “according to His power that is at work within us.”
Ephesians 4:23-24 (New Living Translation)
Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Put on your new nature, created to be like God—truly righteous and holy.
God's capacity to meet His people's spiritual needs far exceeds anything we can either request in prayer or conceive by way of anticipation. It is actualized through "His power," which continually operates within our lives as believers.
In a contrasting positive statement, Paul reminds us that instead of being subject to progressive deterioration, we are to be perpetually renovated in mind and spirit. Christians are to undergo a radical reorientation of their mental outlook. This can only take place under the influence of the Holy Spirit, acting on the human spirit as it affects the realm of thought. God is both the author and the pattern of this changed life.
