Be strong with the Lord Mighty power (Ephesians 6:10) 

Dearly beloved in Christ. 

      As we introspect, we realize how weak we are that a tiny virus was enough to affect whole humanity. So, it is important that we attain strength. But where do we get this strength and how? 

     Paul had spoken of this power in the early part of Ephesians 1:17-20. He had prayed to God to give them the spirit that they might know the greatness of his power which he displayed when he raised Christ from the dead. This power is present in every believer. But we hardly believe it and hence never experience it. That's why Paul prays that God teaches us to believe in his mighty power. 

     In Ephesians 3:16 & 17 too, Paul asks the Father to strengthen them by spirit, so that Christ may dwell in their hearts. So, to gain the strength during these testing times, we need to meditate on the scriptures and pray that God's spirit reveals it to us. Believe in the divine power working in you. Pray that the Holy Spirit may reveal it to you. Appropriate the promise that God will show his power in your heart, supplying for all your needs. It is clear that we need to spend more time with the Father and Son, in order to experience the power of God within you. It is the strength of a Christian! 

     On July 4th, our nation is celebrating Independence Day. Independence is Freedom that comes with responsibility, and responsibility for us is based on Christian values. Wish you all Happy Independence Day! May God guide all of you in his wings.

Yours in prayer
