DARE TO LIVE BY GOD’S POWER AND GRACE: YOU WILL BE STRONG AND STRENGTHEN – IN LIFE AND GODLINESS! 

“And when they had PRAYED, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all FILLED with the Holy Ghost, and they SPAKE THE WORD of God with BOLDNESS . . . 33 And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles WITNESS of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:31, 33. 

God wants you strong and strengthened in LIFE and GODLINESS – which is GODLY LIVING. And the only resource to FUNCTION and BECOME strong and strengthened in LIFE and GODLINESS is you DARING to live by God’s enabling – POWER and GRACE that’s given to us in Christ Jesus’ stead. That’s what the Apostles were living with and through to advance the cause of the Kingdom of our God and to keep the enemy at bay. They were emboldened to witness for the cause of the Gospel because the great enabling of grace and power of God by the Holy Spirit was active in their work in the Lord God. And upon such act of grace they stand firmly in the faith to authenticate and enact whom they believe and what they believe and why they believe. 

“Therefore being JUSTIFIED by faith, we have PEACE with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS by faith into this GRACE wherein we STAND, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God” Romans 5:1-2. 

“Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have OBTAINED like PRECIOUS FAITH with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 GRACE and PEACE be multiplied unto you through the KNOWLEDGE of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 according as his DIVINE POWER hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the KNOWLEDGE of him that hath CALLED us to glory and virtue: 4 whereby are given unto us EXCEEDING GREAT AND PRECIOUS PROMISES: that by these ye might be PARTAKERS of the DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” 2 Peter 1:1-4. 

Apostle Paul was emboldened to DO ALL THINGS through Christ Jesus, who strengthens and keeps him stronger and stronger by the of enabling – POWER and GRACE of Christ Jesus’ stead. This grace meets his lack and limitations, and turns every situation that appears to be failing into a place of sufficiency. It turns his weakness, failures, and infirmities into strength.  

It is Christ Jesus’ enabling POWER and GRACE that empowers Apostle Paul to FUNCTION and to BECOME in Life and Godly Living – in all we can comprehend of His exploits in the kingdom, His cause, and His fulfilment in life and ministry. 

“I CAN DO ALL THINGS through Christ who STRENGTHENS me” Philippians 4:13. 

“And He said to me, “My GRACE is sufficient for you, for My STRENGHT is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the POWER of Christ may rest upon me” 2 Corinthians 12:9. 

God wants you to THRIVE and not SURVIVE in DOING Life and LIVING Godly -in the very place you are called, and endowed with ALL THINGS – (2 Peter 1:2-4). God wants you to be strong and emboldened in the faith as you do life and live godly, by Him, in Christ Jesus’ stead.  

Hence, you need to ask yourself honest questions to know if you are living by God’s POWER and GRACE or by your own ABILITIES.  

Let your strength come from the Lord in every aspect of doing life, by God’s enabling power and grace. 

“Finally, my brethren, be STRONG in the Lord and in the power of His might . . . 19 and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth BOLDLY to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak BOLDLY, as I ought to speak” Ephesians 6:10, 19-20. 

And considering all your rising early and coming in late – your day-to-day routines and schedules – How strong or strengthened are you today in doing Life and being Godly? How sufficient are you today in doing Life and being Godly.  

How weak and insufficient are you for the demands of Life and Godly Living? How do you endeavour to FUNCTION in order to BECOME with MEANINGFUL FULFILLMENT? These, and many other questions not mentioned, you must present to yourself in the pursuit of your CAUSE and COURSE in your daily Life journey. 

Be Blessed in LIFE and GODLY LIVING in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Therefore, having been JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have PEACE with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this GRACE in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Romans 5:1-2. 

“I CAN DO ALL THINGS through Christ who STRENGTHENS me” Philippians 4:13. 

“And He said to me, “My GRACE is sufficient for you, for My STRENGHT is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the POWER of Christ may rest upon me” 2 Corinthians 12:9. 

“Finally, my brethren, be STRONG in the Lord and in the power of His might . . . 19 and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth BOLDLY to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak BOLDLY, as I ought to speak” Ephesians 6:10, 19-20. 

“GRACE and PEACE be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, 3 as His divine POWER has GIVEN to us ALL THINGS that pertain to LIFE and GODLINESS, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, 4 by which have been GIVEN to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” 2 Peter 1:2-4.  

SUMMARY: 

The Central Thesis: God’s Design for You 

God does not want you to merely SURVIVE, but to THRIVE in DOING Life and LIVING Godly. This is possible because you are already called and endowed with ALL THINGS that pertain to life and godliness, by His Divine Power [2 Peter 1:2-4]. 

The only resource to FUNCTION and BECOME strong in this life is to deliberately DARE to live by God’s enabling — POWER and GRACE given through Christ Jesus. 

KEY POINTS: 

  1. Biblical Foundation: The Apostles’ Example

The message uses Acts 4:31,33 as the pattern: After prayer, the believers were FILLED with the Holy Ghost, and with GREAT POWER and GREAT GRACE they witnessed boldly. 

That same enabling of grace and power by the Holy Spirit kept the enemy at bay, emboldened them for the Gospel, and made them stand firm to authenticate what they believe, whom they believe, and why they believe [Romans 5:1-2]. 

  1. The Paul Principle: Sufficiency in Weakness

Apostle Paul’s life is the case study: 
Emboldened to DO ALL THINGS through Christ who strengthens [Philippians 4:13]. 
Grace meets lack and limitations and turns failing situations into sufficiency. 
Weakness, failures, infirmities → turned into strength [2 Corinthians 12:9]. 

Result: Paul was empowered to FUNCTION and BECOME in Life and Godly Living, fulfilling his Kingdom cause and ministry. 

  1. The Call to Self-Examination

Because you are called to Godly Living by God’s Power and Grace, not your own abilities, you must ask yourself: 

Am I living by God’s POWER and GRACE or by my own ABILITIES? 

Considering all the pressure of “rising early and coming in late,” how strong, strengthened, sufficient, or weak am I today for the demands of Life and Godly Living? 

How do I FUNCTION in order to BECOME with MEANINGFUL FULFILLMENT? 

You must present these questions to yourself as you pursue your CAUSE and COURSE in your daily Life journey [Ephesians 6:10, 19-20]. 

  1. The Promise & Posture

Justification by Faith gives you PEACE with God and ACCESS by faith into this GRACE wherein you STAND [Romans 5:1-2]. 
His Divine Power has already given you ALL THINGS for life and godliness, and EXCEEDING GREAT AND PRECIOUS PROMISES so you may be PARTAKERS of the DIVINE NATURE [2 Peter 1:1-4]. 
Command: “Be STRONG in the Lord and in the power of His might” and speak BOLDLY [Ephesians 6:10, 19-20]. 

Closing Benediction: Be blessed in LIFE and GODLY LIVING in Christ Jesus’ stead. Amen. 

Key Themes in One Line: 

Strength, Sufficiency, and Fulfilment are not by human effort, but by daring to live daily in the enabling POWER and GRACE of Christ Jesus — which turns weakness into strength and makes Godly Living possible. 

Tone: Prophetic, confrontational, doctrinal, and empowering. Heavy emphasis on POWER, GRACE, FUNCTION, BECOME, THRIVE, STRONG, BOLDNESS.

Dare To Live By God’s POWER And GRACE: You Will Be Strong & Strengthen – In LIFE & GODLINESS!

God wants you strong and strengthen in LIFE and GODLINESS – which is GODLY LIVING. But the possible resource to FUNCTION and BECOME strong and strengthen in LIFE and GODLINESS is you DARING to live by God’s enabling – POWER and GRACE that’s given to us in Christ Jesus stead. Romans 5:1-2; 2 Peter 1:1-4.

Apostle Paul could be emboldened to DO ALL THINGS through Christ Jesus who strengthens and keeps him stronger and stronger because of Christ Jesus enabling – POWER and GRACE. It thus turns and made his lack – limitations – into a phase of sufficiency and his weakness – failures and infirmities – into strenght. It’s Christ Jesus POWER and GRACE that are the enabling that enables Apostle Paul to FUNCTION and to BECOME in Life and Godly Living.

God wants you to THRIVE and not SURVIVE in DOING Life and LIVING Godly wherein you are called and endowed with ALL THINGS – (2 Peter 1:2-4). Hence you need to ask yourself lots of questions to enable you know if you are  living by God’s POWER and GRACE or by your own ABILITIES.

And considering all your rising early and coming late in day to day routines and schedules – How strong or strengthen are you today in doing Life and being Godly. How sufficient are you today in doing Life and being Godly. How weak and insufficient are you to Life and Godly Living demands. How do you endeavour to FUNCTION in order to BECOME with MEANINGFUL FULFILLMENT. These and many other quest not mentioned, you need to present to yourself in the pursuits of your CAUSE and COURSE in your daily Life journeys.

Be Blessed in LIFE and GODLY LIVING in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
