Summary: Acknowledging our weakness and cultivating a sense of inadequacy can be powerful for those who trust in God. It allows us to recognize that we don't have all the answers or power, but God does. By humbly admitting our limitations and placing our hope in God, we open ourselves up to the limitless power of Heaven. Our weakness becomes a platform for God's power to unfold on our behalf.
In acknowledging our weakness, in deliberately cultivating a sense of inadequacy, there is power. Why? For the man without God, the woman without God, cultivating weakness leads to depression and leads to failure, and leads to inaction. But the son of God, when he cultivates weakness in the spirit, what he does is recognize, βI don't have victory, but God does. I don't have the answer, but God is more than capable to give me all the wisdom I need. I don't have the power but God is Almighty. I don't have the weapons, but God has promised me all His armor β.
If you recognize the danger, admit your total incapacity, and take refuge like a child in the power of your God, that limitless anointing from heaven, placed in the empty vessel that you have provided to divine power through your humble recognition, will be more. Enough to get you out of the hole and onto safe ground.
When we take our eyes off ourselves, recognize our limitations, and place our hope exclusively in God, our weakness becomes the perfect platform for the full power of Heaven to unfold on our behalf.
What do you think about "In weakness there is great power"? We would love to hear from you.
