Surrendering weakness to gain power

"My grace is enough for you: for power is at full stretch in weakness." (2 Corinthians 12: 9)

Power is the key attribute of the Holy Spirit.

• Power to witness to Jesus Christ
  
• Power to overcome evil in our lives
  
• Power of faith
  
• Power of knowledge
  
• Power of patience
  
• Power to endure persecutions
  

All types of power have their source and inspiration from the Holy Spirit.

Now to gain this power, we must surrender our weaknesses to the Holy Spirit. Our weaknesses are all our vulnerabilities. It is amazing how much we want to cling to these.

Lord help me to surrender my weaknesses to you so that I can gain your power.
