Dear Heavenly Father, we thank you for equipping
Deeper Still with all that it needs for doing Your will. We ask for you to equip the Deeper Still in
all ways by Your Almighty Power. May
You produce in Deeper Still, through the power of Jesus Christ, every good
thing that is pleasing to You. In Jesus’
Name, Amen.
The writer of Hebrews goes to great
lengths to remind those listening Who their God is. Let’s break each piece down to see what the author
wanted them to know.
“God of peace” – peace is derived from
its original Greek translation “ eirene”.
It means He is a God of security,
safety, prosperity, and felicity.
“Who brought up from the dead
our Lord Jesus”—All powerful and mighty!
“The great Shepherd of the
sheep”—Watches over and protects us, leads us and guides us.
“ratified an eternal
covenant with His blood.” –Loves you so much that He died for your salvation
and You are His under the new covenant, which is eternal!
The author was saying THIS
GOD, who is all that (and a bag of chips, I might add!), will equip you with
everything you need to do His will. And
it is through the power of the Lord Jesus Christ that He will produce in you every
good thing that is pleasing to Him!
Halleluiah it is through
the power of Jesus!
I know there have been
many times when I have wondered how in the world God was going to produce
anything good and pleasing to Him out of me.
I fail. I fall short. I don’t have it all together, BUT I know the
One who does and it is through His All Mighty Power (which was well-described
in the verse prior!) that He will accomplish every good work!
Thank you Jesus for
equipping us with everything we need through Your power and Mighty Name! Amen!
