Poder
O poder de Deus opera nos que creem. A Bíblia revela que o cristão recebe poder do alto para viver, servir e vencer — não por força própria, mas pelo Espírito de Deus.
Poder do Espírito Santo
Jesus prometeu que seus seguidores receberiam poder ao descer sobre eles o Espírito Santo. Esse poder capacita para testemunho e serviço.
But you2f shall receive power, after that the Holy Spirit [Ruach HaKodesh] is come upon you: and you2f shall be witnesses unto me both in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], and in all Y’hudah [praised], and in Shomron [watch mountain], and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
For God-The Father has not given us the Spirit [Ruach] of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
Behold, I give unto you power to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
Poder na Palavra e na fé
A Palavra de Deus é viva e eficaz, mais cortante que espada de dois gumes. O poder não está em palavras, mas na demonstração do Espírito.
For the word of God-The Father [is] quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the expounding (dissecting) asunder of soul and Spirit [Ruach], and of the joints and marrow, and [is] a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
For the kingdom of God-The Father [is] not in word, but in power.
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues (foreign languages);
They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
Truly, truly, I say unto you, He that believes on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater [works] than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
Fortalecidos pelo Senhor
Tudo posso naquele que me fortalece. O cristão encontra poder não em si mesmo, mas na força do Senhor e na sua armadura espiritual.
I can do all things through Moshiach [Messiah] which strengthens me.
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord - Kurios, and in the power of his might.
Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
Submit yourselves therefore to God-The Father. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
And he said unto them, Why are you2f so fearful? how is it that you2f have no faith?
And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
