Let’s face it. If we want the Lord’s power to do great things for Him, we have to admit that our own feeble abilities are useless without Jesus.
John 15:5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
So we humble ourselves at His feet and admit our total dependence upon the Lord for everything we are, everything we have, and everything we do. We abide in Christ.
James 4:8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
If we could ever understand this truth: I can’t---He can, we'd see the power of God. We'd see prayers answered. A double minded person might say, "Lord, let's do it this way."
When we acknowledge our weakness and sin---when we express our faith in the greatness of God---when we meet with grace His expectations; He will bless us with His power, honor us with His greatness, and thrill us with His glory. Stand back and see the glory of God!
