The Power of Our Christian Living

Feeling powerless against sin can make Christian growth seem impossible. Paul prays that Christians will know God and the certain hope He gives through Jesus. The power that raised Jesus from death now works in believers, while His rule over all things assures them that even failure cannot defeat God's gracious purpose. Because Jesus bore sin and death could not hold Him, those who trust Him can expect resurrection life and confidently depend on Him to complete their transformation.
