Jesus gave us the promise of the Holy Spirit, it was the Holy Spirit who empowered Jesus to do all that he did. Paul the Apostle also understood and relied upon the Holy Spirit. He reminds of this in the Book of Philippians where he writes the following.

Philippians 4:13 & 19 I can do everything through him who gives me strength …my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.

I—as a blessed child of God, special, unique, chosen as a royal priest, called as an ambassador of heaven, an heir of the kingdom, one who has been given extraordinary privileges in life of grace, peace, mercy, strength, power, authority and free access to the very Throne and presence of God, a co-equal heir with Jesus Christ, one who has been saved, cleansed, forgiven and made perfect forever, now as the righteousness of God, predestined for success and holiness since before the foundations of the world were laid. Who is being transformed into the very likeness of Jesus with ever increasing glory.

CAN DO—have been given supernatural abilities, enablement and power, equipped for every good work, blessed with every spiritual blessing and given everything for life and godliness. – is now able to, called to, equipped to, by the anointing of the Holy Spirit who now lives within me, teaching, guiding and revealing with all wisdom the purposes of God on earth.

ALL THINGS– entire, all that is asked of, complete, each and every, fully, totally, utterly, all requests, requirements, tasks, challenges, adventures, even the impossible, the good works that God himself has prepared in advance for us to do.

THROUGH— by the enabling power, in, because of, by means of, to completion, by trusting in and relying on, having faith in and acting upon.

CHRIST— Jesus, the son of God, the divine, the King of kings, the Lord of all lords, the creator, the one who holds all things together, the one who loved each of us so much that he sacrificed his own life for ours, the one by which we are saved, set free, through whom we have eternal life, a future, a destiny and a purpose for life. The one who walked on water, calmed the storms, healed the sick, raised the dead, cleansed the lepers and changed the course of history.

WHO STRENGTHENS ME– not by mere human might, strength, wisdom or ingenuity, but by the supernatural refreshing, enabling and strengthening power that flows from heaven imparted by the Holy Spirit as I wait on, pray, worship and expect in faith to receive and then release.

ACCORDING TO HIS—by way of, because of, with a right to access, by virtue of God’s own, the supreme being, all powerful, all knowing, to whom nothing is impossible

GLORIOUS RICHES—the very treasury of heaven, not earthly jewels, gold or dollars, but supernatural peace, power, wisdom, and anointing, inexhaustible, boundless, overflowing, abundant, plentiful, complete.

Let us remember this great promise as we seek to serve God’s purposes.
