Power Source

When God created, He made special substances - sources - and created out of them. As long as the created stays in contact with its source, its life has unlimited power and potential. 

When God created plants, He chose dirt as their source. As long as plants stay in touch with dirt, they live. But pull a plant out of dirt, and it will die. 

Fish were created for the water. Leave them there and they will become a school of fish. But a fish out of water will die. 

When God created Adam, He took the dust of the ground and blew the breath of life into that clay temple. Adam and Eve, you and I, we all came from the breath of God. God is our Source. We are created in His image. As long as you stay in contact with your Source, as long as you stay rooted and grounded in Him, your potential is limitless. 

To those who come from Him, He imparts power: the power to lay hands on the sick so they shall recover, the power to command demon spirits to leave, power over the world, the flesh, and the devil, power over principalities, the power of His blood, the power of His Gospel, the power of His Kingdom. 

If you are truly with the Lord and He is in you, His characteristics will be your characteristics. God is faithful. Are you? God is merciful. Are you? God gives unconditional love to people who don’t deserve to be loved — people like you and me. Do you? God is totally forgiving. Are you? God is patient. Are you, or do you find yourself standing in front of the microwave screaming, “Hurry up!”?  

As long as you stay in contact with your Source, you can do great things. Abraham came out of an idolatrous society where the people fashioned gods out of wood and stone. The people could touch them. Yet, Abraham had the faith to believe in an unseen, untouchable God. You, too, can feel supreme love for the One you’ve never seen. You can talk to God, whom you’ve never touched.

In God’s economy, you empty yourself to become full. You decrease that you may increase. You go down in order to get up. You are strongest when you are weak. You are rich when you are poor. You give things away so that you can keep them forever. You die so that you can live forever. 

Let me tell you: death is not a tragedy; death is a reward! We’re going to live forever! One day soon I will shake off these dry 80-year-old bones and dance free of pain, sickness, or disease into the sweet by and by! 

With God as your Source: you see the invisible; you hear the inaudible; you know the unknowable, because you are sons and daughters of the Most High God. All knowledge and all power flows through you because you are rooted and grounded in Him, rooted and grounded in the Word of God. He is the vine and we are the branches — the fruit will follow. 

Dare to believe that the impossible is possible for you when you stay connected to the Source!
