Colossians 1:11

Strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience; joyously 

Colossians 1:11

Imagine the unlimited power of God. If you can even begin to imagine it, you are no where near close. He is great beyond words or song could ever describe. Now the Apostle Paul prays that the church may be strengthened with His power and might. What an amazing declaration and prayer. Our Lord wants us to feel His strength inside of us.

First off do not assume that this means we will in any way have the Power of God or could do the things He can. He will of course give us power in the sense of strength and ability as we trust Him. The Holy Spirit will be with us in all things and often will do stuff through us that is amazing indeed. 

Our Lord wants us to have patience and stand firm in this life, as hard as that will be. He provides for us the strength we need to make it through all things and all times that we will go through. He is there for us and will give us all our needs. He loves us and will always be there for us in all of His glory and might.
