For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is God's power for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. Romans 1:16 NET

Another meaning for the word "power" in this text is "moral power and excellence of soul". It is the inherent moral power and excellence of spirit in a believer that causes him to live rightly. The power of the gospel of grace is the empowerment needed to live above sin. For sin shall not [any longer] exert dominion over you, since now you are not under Law [as slaves], but under grace [as subjects of God’s favor and mercy] (Romans 6:14).

When you are under the divine influence of grace, you live above self and sin; depending solely on the righteousness of God. Grace is a force beloved; the same force that raised Jesus from the dead- the resurrection power. The Spirit of God is also referred to as the Spirit of Grace (Zech 12:10); if the Spirit of Grace that raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, that same Spirit will quicken (give a living force) to your mortal bodies (Romans 8:11). The prophets of old were acquainted with the power coming on them, but they had not experienced the indwelling of the Spirit of God.

Do you want to see God work in and through your life? Believe the Good news of His grace today; trust and firmly rely on God's grace
*To be continued*

Prayer: My daddy God, I believe in the good news of Your grace and am persuaded that it's Your power that saves me from all troubles, in Jesus Name.
