The Strength Of The Disciple. Part One. RCCG SOD Year 2

the strength of the disciple

The strength of a disciple is derived from various sources:

 

#1 Joy

The first strength of a disciple is JOY. In Nehemiah 8:10 The Bible says: “The joy  of the Lord is your strength”.In Proverbs 17:22, the Bible says that: “A merry heart doeth good like medicine but a broken spirit dries up bones”

When bones are dried up, the blood becomes weakened. The life of a man is in the blood. For example, if you poison a rat, when it walks into the sitting room and you try to chase it, it wont be able to run anymore. The rat’s blood has changed to water. When you kill it, you see that its blood has become blackish. That is exactly what sorrow does to a man (Proverbs 15:13). Sorrow is a spirit breaker. 

This is why a disciple should always be joyful, so that he can remain strong. 

#3 Strength of the Lord

The strength of a disciple also comes from the STRENGTH OF THE LORD.

Ephesians 6:10 says “Finally my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might”. The disciple derives his strength from the Lord.

In Phil. 4:13, the Bible says,

“I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me”.

 

As a branch inn the vine of Christ, you have to be attached to Him because he is the one supplying food and water to the branch. This is why Jesus said in John 15:5. “Without me , you can do nothing”

If you detach yourself from Him, you are finished.

 

#3 The Power of his  might

The strength of the disciple is supplied from within because it flows from Jesus through to us and he is in us. (Eph.3:4-16).  The Almighty supplies strength to the inner man. For example, there was a woman who was able to lift the whole car which had an accident because a child of her was under the car. This is what love will make us do. The CHRIST IN US SUPPLIED THE STRENGHT . The might of God is His Spirit (Zech. 4:6).

Jesus told the disciples in Acts 1:8 “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you; ad ye shall be witness unto me both in Jerusalem, and in Judea, and in Samaria , and unto the uttermost part of the earth”. He also said through Jude verse 20 that we should build our most holy faith by praying in the Holy Ghost.

 

God performed special miracles, mighty signs and wonders through Paul because4 he prayed in tongues more than all (2 Cor. 14:18). You know about Samson in Judges 14:5-6 and Judges 15:14-15. Each time Samson did something mighty, that was when the Holy Spirit came on him. He was able to do incredible things. In Judges 16:20-21 , when the Holy Spirit left Him, He became an ordinary man. 

 

4. The Name of Jesus

The strength of the disciple also c0mes from the Name of  Jesus. (Phil. 2:9-10). The disciple had the authority to use the name.

#6 The word of God

The strength of the disciple also comes from the word of God because the word of God is forever settled. According to Isaiah 40:8, He says my word shalll stand forever. “The grass withereth , the flower fadeth; but the word of our God shall stand forever”.

 

#7 Mercy of God

One of the greatest sources of the strength of the disciple is the Mercy of God . The Bible says in Romans 9:16; “So then it is not of him that willeth , nor of h8im that runneth, but of God that showeth mercy”.

According to Lamentation 3:22-23, the Bible says” It is the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because its compassions fail not. They are new every mornings; great is thy faithfulness”. The mercy of the Lord is always there in the disciple. He renews it every morning. 

 

In Psalm 106:1 , the Bible says the mercy of the Lord endureth forever. Therefore , I will ask you as a disciple to pray for the mercy of God.
