Breath of Power

A Weekly Devotional of Jesus Power Outreach Ministries

Key Passage: Acts 26: 13 - 18

"So I said, ‘Who are You, Lord?’ And He said, ‘I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. ‘But rise and stand on your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of the things which you have seen and of the things which I will yet reveal to you. ‘I will deliver you from the Jewish people, as well as from the Gentiles, to whom I now send you, ‘to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.’”

The greatest life lived on earth is the life of Jesus Christ. The greatest story told is the story of his conception, birth, life, death and resurrection. The greatest sacrifice made is his death on the cross of Calvary. And the greatest gift he gave is his blood, which was the price for man’s redemption.

Christ is the greatest hope of a hopeless world, the true light to a lost world, and the only answer to all of man’s questions. His power is the greatest power ever experienced on the surface of the earth. That power conceived him in a virgin’s womb. That same power endued him for ministry, enabled him to do miracles, raised him from the dead and rests on his living saints today.

Paul, called Saul, the persecutor of the Church, encountered that power when he met the risen Jesus face to face. A bright light from Heaven knocked him and his men down. There he heard the voice of the Master saying to him, “I am the true Master. You cannot fight against me. You heard the story that I am dead and gone, but now you know, I am alive and around.” Paul cried, “Lord, who are you?” He announced, “I am Jesus who you are persecuting…. But now, I am putting your life on the reverse gear. Arise and Stand, for I appeared to you for the very purpose of making you a minister and a witness of my power. I’m sending you back to the world that sent you against Me to proclaim My light; to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness and inheritance. I am handing to you the redemptive package that you may hand it out to a lost world through the gospel.”

Satan’s dominion over man has been destroyed through Jesus’ death on the cross of Calvary. Man is now free to serve God without fear, in holiness and righteousness all the days of his life (Heb 2:14-15; Lk 1:74-75). Therefore, arise in faith and begin to live by the power of God. You have no reason to live under the power of a conquered foe.

Arise, stand on your feet, and declare your victory over Satan and his kingdom through the blood of Jesus Christ.
